Faith Norman is a singer-songwriter in the duo Bring Me Flowers with the single ‘hi,’ in collaboration with the producer Rayan Telleria. Whilst music remains a huge part of her life, Faith has achieved the Himalayan feat of working whilst converting to get into medical school after studying Music and Drama as an undergraduate. 

In this episode, they dive into a vast range of topics from psychology, music therapy, songwriting to mental health and the struggle of deciding what career to pursue. They do not shy away from talking about their personal views and experiences surrounding these topics. However, the conversation, recorded back in January 2023, remains a fun and bubbly one throughout.
