In this powerful episode of the Mind.Set Podcast, we sit down with photographer and therapeutic arts facilitator Jon Rees, whose remarkable journey from childhood trauma and homelessness to creative purpose and healing is both raw and inspiring.
Jon opens up candidly about growing up in a family impacted by addiction and mental illness, his early struggles with undiagnosed neurodivergence, and the spiral into substance use that led to years of street homelessness. But his story doesn’t end there. Through recovery, community support, and a chance encounter with a camera, Jon discovered photography as a form of visual meditation - one that helped him reconnect with the world and himself.
