Im Josh Piterman, Im a singer, actor and certified meditation teacher. I’ve played many roles in my life both on and offstage and worn many masks, but I’ve always had a curiosity for what’s happening behind those masks, behind identity and ego. I want to explore the real stories beyond the bright lights of people's journeys and get a VIP pass to the backstage tour of their lives. In this series, you’ll get to know some of the most extraordinary and inspiring people behind the masks that they wear. It’s an opportunity for them to share their authentic story. Their sacrifices, successes, hurdles, triumphs, insecurities, motivations, passions and fears, as well as their self-discoveries, philosophical or spiritual awakenings, the growth mindset tools they’ve used and the wisdoms and lessons they’ve learned, to navigate their way through life, with purpose and meaning. It’s time to be inspired by the depths of what it means to feel truly human. It’s time to go behind the mask.

Rob Mills & Ryder Jack - Navigating Manhood in 2024

In Australia alone we lose 1 man everything 3.5 hours to suicide. That’s 7 men a day, 213 a month and 2555 a year. In the US its every 13mins. In the UK, it’s the biggest killer of men under age 45. We have a growing mental health crisis that affecting men and all their relationships.

In 2022 acclaimed Aussie performer Rob Mills wrote a book Putting on a show: Manhood, mates and mental health which brought a curious lens to the current state of masculinity. Organisations such as TommorowMan and their facilitators like Ryder Jack are helping young men to redefine masculinity, by questioning what’s working and what’s not. Their aim is to empower men to re-define a healthier version of masculinity for themselves that will positively impact those they love most.

In this episode we discuss:

-The clear difference between masculinity and manhood.

-Toxic masculinity and misogyny.

-Diminishing oneself, being non-confrontational and or non-assertive to avoid being labelled toxic or a misogynist.

-Father’s who are incapable or unreliable and the importance of having a village of positive male role models to raise a boy.

-The harrowing male suicide stats around the world and the suicide letters left by men who feel useless and worthless.

-The need for men to be vulnerable and really share their feelings, and to have safe spaces which enable them to feel comfortable in doing so.

-How Tomorrow Man go about teaching boys “the capabilities to give them better life outcomes.”

-Rob shares the importance of exploring new things, including sexuality.

-Ryder opens up a moment on what happened when he yelled at his partner.

-Josh shares the shame he’s felt for objectifying women.

-Rob shares why crying has been some of the best medicine for him across his life.

This episode is open, powerful and vulnerable. Nobody held back, and we all believe it’s one men from all walks of life at any age will truly benefit from listening or watching.
