Fisky
Producer
Fisky is a Poet, Rapper, Public Speaker and founder of Mind Over Matter.
Fisky started MoM the day he got sober after a twenty year battle with depression and addiction. Since then, he has watched it become the platform he never had.
MoM events and workshops have helped people with depression, addiction, anxiety and often opened difficult conversations. Growing organically, MoM has collaborated with Tedx, The Lost Lectures, London’s City Hall, The Tavistock & Portman and in April 2019 Fisky and Miss Yankey hosted MoM’s first international event in Melbourne, Australia.
Writing has always been Fisky’s therapist. He draws on his twenty years lived experience with depression and addiction to raise awareness, let people know they aren’t alone, process his own struggles and project positive energy.
Fisky is also part of the #FLOpoet collective mentored by Natalie ‘Floacist’ Stewart, founding member of Multi Grammy nominated Neo Soul group, Floetry.
