Today I'm joined by Kallum Dray. In this conversation we discuss the evolving landscape of men's mental health, the importance of therapy, and the societal pressures that hinder men from seeking help. Kallum shares his personal journey through mental health challenges, the impact of childhood experiences, and the significance of finding purpose in life. We explore coping mechanisms, the importance of setting boundaries, and the role of nutrition in mental well-being. The discussion also touches on the balance between work and personal life, and Kallum's aspirations for the future as a coach and mentor.
