In this episode, I reflect on the Men’s Mental Health Workshop I hosted on May 6th where powerful stories were shared, emotions were honored, and silence was finally broken.

I open up about my own journey through bullying, low self-esteem, and emotional shutdown, and how I’ve learned to turn those struggles into strength, confidence, and clarity. 

This conversation is about more than stress or anxiety—it’s about the deeper emotional battles men face every day but rarely speak about. I talk about what it means to create a safe space for healing, why acknowledging your emotions matters, and how to begin building better coping strategies and stronger relationships.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed and kept it all in, I hope this episode helps you feel seen—and gives you a path forward.
