Fi Peel has had a wide and varied engagement with the mental health sector, originally training as a counsellor and later as a mental health peer support worker.
Fi works independently as a lived-experience mental health recovery specialist, peer workforce supervisor and mental health advocate.
A non-binary artist with a versatile vocal range, beautiful dreams, passion for socially equitable worlds, dedication to research and ongoing commitment to craft, Fi is a parent to three beautiful young adults and an ardent lover of all that is arts-related.
Observed largely in the natural habitat that spans Wiradjuri, Gadigal, Dharawal and now Ngunnawal lands, Fi is regularly found absorbed in show rehearsals; glued to a laptop writing; stretching vocal cords and harmonic sequences in fascinating ways; speaking ardently on mental health inclusion; lost in thought wandering the streets, headphones blaring musical theatre and always in search of the next strand of inspiration.
