Serene Pod | Series 2, Episode 7: Breaking the Silence - A Conversation on Men’s Mental Health

In this episode of Serene Pod, Mark and Selin sit down for a powerful and honest conversation centred around men’s mental health in recognition of Men’s Mental Health Month. Together, they unpack the realities that many men face but often struggle to voice: the pressures to “stay strong,” the silence around emotional wellbeing and the challenges that come with navigating mental health in a world where vulnerability isn’t always encouraged. From personal reflections to the insights they’ve gained through working with young people, Mark and Selin explore what change really looks like and why creating safe, judgement-free spaces for boys and men is so important. They dive into resilience, emotional expression, male role models and the small everyday steps that can make a big difference.
