PHOEBE HICKS
Host + Girlfriend
Hey I'm Phoebe, I'm currently studying in college and I suffer with anxiety. I'm not focused on changing the world, just helping as many as I can to feel like they belong somewhere and know that they're not alone, which is something I could achieve doing The Art of Talking with Tom.
During my spare time, or just to help calm my anxiety, I love to be out in nature, whatever the weather, just going on walks or doing some photography, I also love to spend time with animals and go horse riding.

TOM JF WOOD
Host + Boyfriend
I am a student who is passionate about creating a change in the world. Mental Health is something which is hugely important to me and I find it really helpful to speak out about my experiences and in turn create a community of support. This why I have created The Art of Talking.
In my spare time I like to create performance work and and I am currently studying towards opening my own theatre company- Revolution Theatre.
In 2016 I lost my father, this is something you will hear me talking a lot about as well as my mental health journey.
