Mental Health Fitness: Filling Your Cup Before Pouring Into Others
Drop us a message
Ever wonder why you're constantly drained, struggling to keep up with life's demands, or finding yourself irritable with the people who matter most? The answer might be simpler than you think.
"We have to stop pouring into people. We must fill ourselves first, and then everyone else catches the overflow," explains psychologist Jonah Bell. This conversation brings him together with Kenneth “Scooter” Reddick, founder of Brothers Brunch Foundation and Marine veteran Kelley Saunders for a raw, unfiltered look at men's mental health—a subject that affects far more of us than we're willing to admit.
Recorded in the authentic setting of U Got Next Barbershop in Douglasville, Georgia, this episode shatters misconceptions about mental health, especially for Black men. You'll discover why mental health isn't a diagnosis but rather a practice—like physical fitness—requiring consistent maintenance. The panelists offer practical strategies anyone can implement, from intentional breathing and proper sleep to understanding how our unresolved traumas manifest in our children.
"You can't cuss, fuss, or beat you out of your child—it's birthed into them," Scooter reveals, highlighting how our unhealed wounds become our children's inheritance. The conversation delves into accountability, purpose-finding, and why even eight-year-olds benefit from having a therapist as a "life coach." For fathers, husbands, sons, and anyone who cares about them, this episode provides the roadmap to better mental wellness without stigma or shame.
Ready to fill your cup first? Press play, take notes, and join us in changing the narrative around men's mental health. Your family, your work, and most importantly—you—deserve nothing less than your mentally healthiest self.
