#015 - Why Talking About Mens Mental Health ISN'T Helping
Manage episode 429286332 series 3567834
A topic that no bloke wants to talk about, but one that affects us all. For some of us, we'll never want to talk about it, but maybe there's something that speaks louder than words. In this episode, Rob and Matty speak to Lini, a Picasso with the paint brush who's mission is bigger than himself. Lini is currently using his talent to tell stories of influential men like Jonathan Thurston, Kyle Sandilands, and Cody Simpson with the hopes of capturing their stories of vulnerability in a way that will resonate with those blokes who simply don't have the words. It's a deep one boys, but an important one, listen up.
