Firstly I’m a bit suss as the whole thing feels a bit like PR for her book.
She’s proudly clutching a book called First Knowledges Health: Spirit, Country and Culture, which she co-authored.

“We need systems that keep people well, not the systems that pick them up after they’re broken.”
The whole system is pretty fucked. People are overworked and underpaid so that the wealthy grifters of society can make as much profit as possible while grinding the population down to dust. It’s no secret what’s wrong with things and until we have an actual revolution about the way society works I don’t see it changing.

It really is a mental illness, but it’s normalised and celebrated.
