Breaking Chains: Faith, Brotherhood, and the Fight for Men's Mental Health, with Chris Bennett — Life Coach, Speaker, and Advocate for Men's Healing

In this episode of the StayMENtallyStrong Podcast, I sit down with Chris Bennett — a certified life coach who helps men overcome addiction, break free from shame, and build a stronger relationship with themselves and with God. After losing his father to suicide and walking through his own struggles with addiction, Chris found his calling in guiding other men toward healing, faith, and freedom. We talk about the power of vulnerability, the role of faith in mental health, and why so many men suffer in silence. Chris opens up about the lies men often believe about themselves, practical strategies to break the cycle of shame, and the breakthrough moments he's witnessed through his men's retreats. This is a conversation about brotherhood, healing, and the courage it takes to fight for your true identity. If you've ever felt trapped by shame, addiction, or silence — this episode will remind you that you're not alone and that transformation is possible.
