We are joined by Jason Lange, a dedicated men's coach and group facilitator committed to helping men connect with their emotions and foster mutual support.
Jason shares his perspectives on the societal pressures that compel men to suppress their emotions and highlights concerning statistics related to men's mental health, including rising suicide rates.
He emphasizes the importance of supportive men's groups, where vulnerability is encouraged, creating a safe environment for men to openly discuss their challenges.

Jason recounts his personal journey and the motivation behind his work, inspiring listeners to seek support and build meaningful connections in own lives.
