On this episode of The Social Impact Show, Samm Marshall chats with Faith, the visionary behind the In My Feelings Teen Mental Wellness Pop-Up. This powerful initiative is equipping teens with the emotional intelligence, life skills, and resilience tools they need to thrive in today’s fast-paced, high-pressure world.

Faith breaks down how the programme uses gamification, peer coaching, and real-world scenarios to teach six life-changing intelligences — from emotional regulation to social awareness and adaptive thinking. Designed as a safe, engaging space where teens don’t just learn but practice how to live well, the pop-up is reshaping the conversation around youth mental health in South Africa.
