How you going mate?

In this episode I have a wide ranging chat about men, music, mental health and ADHD with Ben Hughes from The Men's Table. The Men’s Table creates a unique environment for men to share openly about their lives, their challenges, their highs and lows with a group of men who they learn to trust and respect. The first Men’s Table began in 2011 with twelve men who have met once a month for dinner ever since.

A few months ago I spoke with best mates Simon and Blake. We spoke about Simon's experiences with childhood bullying, how it has affected his mental health and how the support of his best mate, Blake, had helped him begin his recovery journey. To date that episode has been our most listened to episode ever. In this episode we catch up with Simon and Blake and discuss their special friendship, we find out how Simon has been going, explore what he has been doing to manage his mental health and well-being and we talk about their mental health initiative, Listen. This really is a must listen episode. As always, you can listen via Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify and all good podcasting apps.

In this episode I talk about the reasons we do this podcast and run our social media pages. 3 years ago I lost one of my oldest friends, Steve, to suicide. Suicide is the number one killer of men aged under 45 in Australia and here at HYGM we want to stop that from happening. I also talk about the effects of Steve's suicide and remember the impact he had on my life.
