In the second part of our conversation with Dr. Joe Shepard, we dive deeper into the challenges men face in seeking emotional support and the significance of recognizing signs of distress in friends. We also reflect on the impact of loss within the community and the importance of honoring those who have struggled with mental health issues. Join us as we continue to explore the critical topics of public healing, hyper-functioning masculine depression, and the role of community in addressing men's mental health.
