An important conversations surrounding men’s mental health. What is a man’s purpose today? Is it family? Career? Friendships? Or something deeper? We explore the pressures men face, both internal and external. Whether we’re living out someone else’s expectations or defining our own path. What happens when a man no longer feels useful? Or when he achieves everything society tells him to, but still feels empty? If you’ve ever wrestled with questions about identity, masculinity, or your role in this world, this one's for you.
But before we got into the real conversation of this episode, we opened up about the decision to take a short summer break. Let’s be real, life gets busy, and sometimes so does booking guests. We are also pouring our energy into our first-ever live event: Beers, Bros & Banter on July 24, 2025 (see out Website for more details). At this event we are hoping to create nothing but a space where men can show up, connect, and be real with each other. If you’ve been following our journey, this is your chance to be part of it. Join our email list to stay in the loop and help shape a growing community that’s doing mental health differently.
