Tuhina Pal talks about her book: 
"They. Didn't. Know." (audio)
This session shares my conversation with Franklin High School junior Tuhina Pal. Tuhina recently published a book of poems she wrote on her journey to recovery. We recorded this conversation in the Franklin TV & Radio Studio on Wednesday, April 23, 2025. 


We cover the following in our conversation

  • How normal anxiety worsened during the pandemic

  • How she recognized that, got help and has been on the recovery journey

  • How recovery is not a linear journey

  • Poetry was a vehicle for her to work through her issues


The recording runs about 36 minutes
