TIB614 A Chat with Callum MacPherson from Young Blood Men's Mental Health

Tradies In Business

Waz and Nic chat with Cal MacPherson from Youngblood Men's Mental Health. They have an honest discussion about the challenges of discussing mental health and its critical importance, especially since Cal's mate tragically completed suicide. This event deeply affected Cal, and he's now dedicated to providing a space for men to openly share the burdens they're carrying. They explore the importance of breaking the silence on topics that are often avoided, such as supporting your friends when they're opening up, and why Cal is so committed to assisting others. Cal speaks candidly about the need to be genuine, to drop your defenses, and to ensure there's a safe environment for men to express themselves without fear of judgment. Cal offers valuable guidance on recognizing when a friend is in distress and how to support them. They highlight the importance of having emergency contact numbers readily available, the benefits of physical fitness for mental clarity, and how their podcast aims to continue the conversation and provide mutual support during challenging times.
