“You’re not meant to carry everything alone — asking for help is not weakness, it’s strength.”

This Wellbeing Wednesday, we dive deep into men’s mental health with Registered Psychologist Janelle Schultz.

We explore the realities behind stigma, suicide risk, emotional discomfort, and why so many men wait until a crisis to reach out. Janelle helps us understand the importance of creating space to feel — not fix — and how to truly support someone without shutting down vulnerability.

In this episode, we unpack:

Why men struggle to seek help until it’s overwhelming

The role masculinity plays in emotional expression

What real support looks like between friends, partners, and teammates

How to handle discomfort when someone opens up

Why therapy isn’t “weakness,” and how to find the right fit

This conversation isn’t about having the answers — it’s about listening, showing up, and reminding men that they aren’t alone. Whether you’re struggling, supporting someone, or simply curious, there’s something here for you.
