Men make up nearly 80% of suicide deaths. And yet, so many of us suffer in silence.

In this episode, I open up about a chapter of my life I’ve never shared in full — the identity crisis that nearly broke me, the intrusive thoughts I couldn’t escape, and how something as simple as a sunset… started to pull me back.

I talk about:

• Why men often hide their pain
• The connection between identity, stagnation, and depression
• How gratitude isn’t soft — it’s a mental weapon
• The role of running in facing inner chaos
• Why silence is the enemy and vulnerability is strength

Whether you’re in a dark place or trying to support someone who is — this episode may help and I hope it does. 

You are not alone. 

You are not weak. 

And this chapter of your life is not the end of the story.

Keep Going. Keep Getting After It.

I hope today’s episode sparked something within you to pursue your dreams and unlock your true potential. If you found value in it, consider sharing it with someone who might need that same push.

Getting After It is for those who. want to silence their self-doubt. Refuse to be owned by comfort. Understand their limits are man-made and breakable. We live in a time of constant comparison. Social media drowns us in highlight reels and overnight success stories. But what most people don’t see is the grit behind it all. The reps. The quiet mornings. The sacrifices. The failures.

You are just getting started. Keep Getting After It.
