Every November, millions of men worldwide grow moustaches for a reason far deeper than facial hair trends. In this episode of The Urban Herald Podcast, we explore how a simple Melbourne pub conversation has evolved into a global powerhouse fighting the men's health crisis.
Discover the alarming statistics: men die 4.5 years earlier than women. Three out of four suicides are male. One in four Black men will face a prostate cancer diagnosis. Yet 60% of men never discuss their mental health.
Join us as we investigate how Movember is breaking stigma, normalising conversations in workplaces, and equipping men with life-saving knowledge about testicular cancer self-examination, prostate cancer screening, and mental health support. We'll explore why vulnerability is strength, how employers benefit from men's health initiatives, and practical ways you can participate this November, whether growing a moustache, moving 60km, or hosting transformative community conversations.
This isn't just about facial hair. It's about fundamentally reshaping how society understands men's health, masculinity, and the power of speaking up.
