Episode 2 - Men’s Mental Health

Join Mika Warne - qualified counsellor as we shine a light on men’s mental health - a subject that’s too often left in the shadows. Society still places huge pressure on men to stay strong, keep quiet, and carry on, but the truth is that many are struggling silently with issues like stress, grief, burnout, relationships, and the weight of expectations.

This episode offers an honest, compassionate space to explore these challenges. We talk about what it really means to experience grief as a man, how burnout creeps in without warning, the impact of relationship struggles, and why opening up can feel so difficult. At the same time, we look at practical ways to start conversations, reduce stigma, and build support systems that work.

Whether you’re navigating your own mental health journey or want to better understand the men in your life, this episode is about breaking the silence. It’s a reminder that vulnerability is strength, that reaching out is a sign of courage, and that no man should have to carry the weight alone.
