Amornthep “Sanju” Sachamuneewongse
Global Shaper
Founder at Sati App, a mobile application platform that provides on demand listening services with trained deep listeners. He is currently working closely with National Suicide Preventaion Center in Thailand to develop ways to tackle mental health problems.
Says Sanju: “I believe that I have a listening skill that allows me to stop and listen from the heart to those who are in pain, or fighting their own battle. Listening from the heart is key when it comes to foster being empathetic. For me, especially having lived through Mental Health Disorders, I feel the need for more empathy. We need to truly understand and empathize with the problem before we can actually create the best solution possible for it. Further this may sound like a cliché answer, but every morning that I wake up, I want to continue fighting on my mission to destigmatize mental health and create a more accessible and affordable mental health care infrastructure.”
