How Men Can Escape the Medical Vortex — With Brian Hampton
In this empowering episode of Mind Over Masculinity, we welcome 81-year-young wisdom powerhouse Brian Hampton, who shares game-changing insights on navigating the healthcare system without losing your dignity—or your sanity. Drawing from hundreds of medical encounters and his new book It’s a Great Life If You Don’t Weaken, Brian reveals how men often get trapped in the "medical vortex" and what it takes to reclaim control. From asking the right questions to seeking a second opinion and finding a patient advocate, this episode is a masterclass in self-advocacy, especially for men conditioned to tough it out in silence.
About the Guest:
Brian Hampton has lived a life as expansive as it is inspiring—ad man, army officer, political consultant, entrepreneur, and now first-time author. His hard-earned wisdom comes from real-life trenches—multiple surgeries, bureaucratic battles, and a relentless pursuit of self-empowerment. His book It’s a Great Life If You Don’t Weaken distills practical tools to help others deal with life’s curveballs and difficult people alike.
Key Takeaways:
The “medical vortex” can drain your time, energy, and identity—learn to spot it early.
Always go into doctor visits prepared—you’re the boss of your body.
Second opinions and radiology double-reads can prevent costly mistakes.
Patient advocates can be life-changing, especially for complex care.
Men must unlearn silence and embrace assertive communication in health settings.
