BLEEDING STEEL: MEN'S MENTAL HEALTH🚹💡🌻💊👑❤

Pastor Gladys Paswani says "hurt people hurt people". As individual or personal emotional trauma may be, it has the capacity to affect the people around us. In this episode, my girls and I discuss how hurting or unhealed men create a mess, messier enough to mess other people in their lives. I had so much fun recording this episode, I know you will have fun listening too. #MyGirlsAreAWholeVibe #WomenRooting4TheBrothers'Healing

Sadly, just like any other world catastrophe,if covid-19 has not killed you, it sure has messed up your mental health one way or the other. We are in the times were not guarding our hearts and taking care of our minds is a luxury we can't afford. In this episode I give a brief insight on how to take care of ourselves psychologically during this pandemic.

Pain can sometimes feel "safe" & "comfortable". However, comfort will tell you any lie to keep you in its embrace. It will lure you back with a person,situation or a mindset that is/was toxic and it will keep you there as long as you are willing or as long as you allow it. Choose to break out of that comfort zone. On this episode, we hear a true life situation from a brother who chose to break out, seek wholeness regardless of how painful it was and just literally changed the narrative of "men don't cry"

Is there really a solid "right" way for a man to deal with a relationship heart break? and do you think men should handle it differently from women?

There is no easy solution for suicide prevention, but reducing the stigma associated with getting help can make a real difference!

In this episode we get to iron out some of the biases/ stereotypes around GBV. Yes men too are victims of GBV!

sssshhhhh! Boys don’t cry, boys who cry like that turn out to be weak men. Crying like a lil girl will make women lose respect for you, if I hear you cry one more time; I’ll smack the hell out of you!” Words endlessly flowing out of society’s mouth, painfully piercing the hearts of the male specie and molding mentally depressed males, emotionally detached brothers and men with zero self-esteem concealed in masculine toxicity.

When we as the society impose certain musculinity on our men or boys, we unnecessary mislead young men into acting in certain predefined ways that aren't actually conducive to attracting and sustaining healthy and enjoyable relationships! In this episode i address the effects of toxic musculinity on society.

They say "time heals all wounds". while there is an element of truth in this, But i believe it is what you do in that time that facilitates your healing process. In this episode we give an highlight on the "little but not so little" steps that build an authentic healing process.

Where mental health is concerned, men need to 'mask off'. Men need to break out of toxic societal norms that make them feel it is easier to put up fake smiles and "safer" to die in silence. They need to know that it is very much okay and expected of them to open up about their mental health issues/struggles in order to heal.
