It's like having a powerful story behind your songs, one that's all about making a real difference in the world. Sure, being a talented artist matters, but having an MTP takes things to a whole new level. It's like having a North Star guiding you, inspiring every beat and lyric you create. It's what gives your music that extra punch, making it more than just sounds - it's a force for change. So, while talent is great, having an MTP is what sets apart artists who truly leave their mark.

What is that? That's a drum kit. And then, all of a sudden, they find themselves as a drummer. Or we've had young people who are, like, I really don't want to be on stage, it just doesn't work for me. Well, they'll work behind the scenes or maybe they'll write something. But someone else within the group will say well, I'll step up and present your piece, I'll present your words. So there's a place for everyone in what we're doing, and the openness and the creativity that we come to the table or our staff come to the table is exciting. And that's where it's like we're not looking for to reproduce, to do the same thing."

Tapping your creativity enhances recovery and is a great prevention strategy.
