The Sprack and Pip Collective is an independent publication of memoirs, articles, and music from creator Sean Hanna with a membership based community centered on Mental Health, Wellness, Acceptance and Advocacy.
Our Story
Sprack and Pip are two young birds born out of a wellness routine Sean and his late partner, Stephen, shared regularly. During years of navigating mental and physical health challenges, their 'friends' became partners on a mission, offering both Sean and Stephen comfort and support. Sprack helped Sean with his bipolar disorder and ADHD management. And before Stephen's passing, Pip was his companion through the depression and trauma of battling brain cancer. Sean is continuing to keep the spirit and mission of Sprack and Pip's relationship alive through his personal stories of handling life's difficult mental health obstacles as well as the music he's made along the way. Now Sean, Sprack and Pip are building a collective of enthusiastic allies, special supporters and creative contributors to share hope, foster togetherness and eliminate the awkwardness and stigmas surrounding mental health issues of all kinds.
Content To Care About
Through deeply heartfelt stories, moving music, inspiring insights, and resources from official organizations, The Sprack and Pip Collective brings people together. People who know what it's like because they've survived their own "stuff". People who want a place to belong that doesn't require them to be anything more than themselves. And people who advocate for all types of Mental Health Issues and the Neurodivergent Community.
It is our intent to always have something new to care about whether it's an exclusive story, music track, informative article or discussion. By becoming a subscriber you'll be able to stay up to date with weekly content sent straight to your inbox. No algorithms or jumbled up news feeds filled with ads and posts from places and things you've never heard of. Oh, and Sprack and Pip hate spam as much as we all do, so there will never be any of that!
Your caring support, either through various tiers of memberships from free to premium or generous one time contributions, will help Sean continue a full time schedule of writing engaging and earnest stories, composing music for life's special moments, designing and creating inspiring items to take with you, researching, reporting on and advocating for important mental health and wellness issues and maintaining this welcoming and informative space for Sprack and Pip’s community to share their own experiences both big and small.
Connect With Others Who Understand
As we build a lovingly engaged community of members at The Sprack and Pip Collective, it's Sean's biggest hope and commitment to share hope, encouragement, love, and acceptance not only to those who live with mental health challenges, but also to those who care about and for them.
