Men’s Mental Health: Why It Matters and How to Help. We’re joined by Stefanos Koutsoumpis, a PhD who left physics and multinational IT after realising success doesn’t guarantee happiness. We talk openly about how depression can hide behind a “good life,” and why many men don’t notice it until it shows up as stress, numbness, or shutdown.

We explore what actually helps—moving beyond surface-level self-help to deeper needs like meaning, values, and emotional awareness. Stefanos shares why therapy works when quick fixes don’t, and how to better support the men in your life by creating emotional safety without pressure.

We also dive into the power of men’s groups, being truly heard, and simple ways to shift your state—like moving your body. The episode closes with a calming water-based guided meditation to help you release what you’ve been holding.
