Welcome to Episode 8 of No Man’s an Island – a podcast powered by Men’s Therapy Hub.
In this conversation, Chris Hemmings speaks with Ben West, an award-winning campaigner, author and government advisor whose journey began with personal tragedy. After losing his younger brother Sam to suicide when he was only 17, Ben turned his grief into a drive for change – launching a national petition that reached over 300,000 signatures and led to educational reform.
They discuss the realities of grief, guilt and trauma, the shortcomings in mental health care for young people and how therapy helped Ben reclaim his story. From EMDR therapy to redefining stoicism, this episode explores what it really takes to heal and to make lasting change.
