Beyond Strong: Rethinking Men's Health & Emotional Wellness.
Men are often taught to carry quietly, solve independently, and endure without complaint. But what does that pressure cost—physically, emotionally, and relationally?
In this Let’s Talk About It session, along with our guest speakers we’ll explore how cultural expectations around masculinity influence not only emotional expression, but stress levels, health habits, preventable disease, relationships, and help-seeking behaviors. We’ll create space to examine how silence, pride, strength, and vulnerability intersect—and how redefining wellness for men can positively impact families, partnerships, and community health.
This community-led town hall invites reflection around questions like:
-How have messages about masculinity shaped the way men respond to stress, illness, or vulnerability?
-What prevents men from prioritizing their physical health and emotional wellbeing?
-How does unspoken pressure show up in work, relationships, parenting, and long-term health outcomes?
-What might strength look like if emotional awareness and accountability were part of it?
As always, this is not a lecture or therapy session. It’s a facilitated, psychologically safe space where lived experience guides the dialogue and community voices lead.
Whether you’re a man, love a man, raise a man, or work alongside men, this conversation matters.
Expect an evening filled with understanding, empathy, and genuine connection as we break down stigma and build community through truth and healing.
✨ Come as you are. Leave lighter
