I'm happy to announce that I have signed on for a partnership/sponsorship with BetterHelp.
BetterHelp is an online portal that provides direct-to-consumer access to behavioral health services.
As much as I care about mental health, especially when it comes to men, I am not a licensed mental health professional nor will I ever claim to be (unless I become one someday).
But, I do 100% believe in the power of counseling, therapy, coaching or any service that provides you with a knowledgable individual who will be there to listen to you, especially in tough times.
I have become a user of BetterHelp myself and have gotten massive benefit out of it by getting paired with my ideal licensed expert who has immeasurably helped me with my own fears and insecurities that I've struggled with.
If you feel like you can use someone to talk to, BetterHelp is offering you, a Behind The Mask-ulinity Podcast listener, 10% off your first month if you sign up using this link:

Gold. Silver. Bronze.
What do those three medals remind you of? If you're like most people, they probably make you think of the Olympics. The Olympic Games, where the best of the best from around the world compete on a global stage for the pride of themselves and for the pride of their countries.
An athletic competition that began in 776 BC in Athens, Greece and was revived in 1896AD again in Athens to what we know now as the modern Olympic Games.
Some athletes train almost literally their entire lives not just to win a medal at the games, but to simply get the opportunity to participate and represent their countries. If you want to get a taste of what these athletes go through, not just physically but mentally and emotionally as well, I highly recommend watching the HBO documentary Weight Of Gold narrated by one of the most prolific Olympians in history, Michael Phelps.
Join me for this deep, intimate and enlightening conversation with Jason Rogers about being a world class athlete and the performance anxiety that can be crippling.
Jason Rogers is not just an Olympian, but a medal-winning Olympian when he won a Silver Medal in fencing at the Beijing Olympic Games in 2008. Jason knows what it means to compete at the highest levels.... but he also knows what it feels like to be at the lowest levels. Levels that are full of fear, anxiety, insecurities, doubt, shame and unworthiness. Check out his extremely vulnerable article in Men's Health.
Although Jason reached heights that others only dream of, he has struggled with much of the same things as you and I and pretty much every other human being. He may have seemed like a machine when he was performing at his best, but he's just as human as you and I.
Now, he’s dedicating himself and his work to the evolving state of masculinity. His work, which focuses on the intersection of sex, shame, and masculinity, has been profiled by the Times of London, Newsweek, and Mel Magazine. He also writes the Mandate Letter, a free weekly newsletter about the strange culture of being a man.
