Men's Mental Health Matters - Part 1

In honour of International Mens Day on 19th November, we shed light on the often-overlooked aspect of men's health – their mental wellbeing. 

In this episode, we are joined by two incredible guests, former rugby league legend, Darius Boyd, and former editor of the Courier Mail, Michael Krutcher, to share their experiences and insights into the world of men's mental health.

During this engaging conversation, we discuss the pressure of balancing life, career and family while also dealing with the expectations and criticisms of everyone around you.

Darius Boyd opens up about his personal journey about dealing with his own challenges while being in the public eye, and having the added expectations and criticisms of those around you.

Michael Krutcher provides valuable advice on navigating the complexities of mental health and the importance of a support network.

'Men's Mental Health Matters' is a powerful conversation about understanding yourself, identifying the support around you and learning to balance all of the expectations around fatherhood. Tune in and be part of the conversation that's changing lives.
