The Life Check-In: Real Talk on How We’re Really Living
About this Event
Join Complete Health Ventures, Heart, Body & Soul & Gentlemen's Factory for The Life Check-In: Real Talk on How We’re Really Living - Mind. Money. Relationships. Purpose.
June is National Men’s Health Month, but this conversation goes beyond the basics.
Join us for a powerful, culturally grounded panel discussion where men come together to talk about the things we don’t always say out loud. From pressure and purpose to relationships, finances, and everyday stress, this is a space for honesty, reflection, and real connection.
No lectures. No clinical jargon. Just real conversations rooted in lived experience.
Whether you’re navigating the grind, showing up for others, or figuring things out as you go, this is your space to check in, reset, and hear from others who get it.
Panelists:
Troy Johnson, Founder, Soca Run, Co-Founder, Never Settle
Alfonso "Ali" Wright, Co-Founder, Brooklyn Tea
Proper Edakit, NYC DJ & Event Curator
Moderated by Christopher Williams - Founder & CEO of Heart, Body & Soul
