Listen "Mental Health Check-in with Nelson Borges"
Episode Synopsis
This episode of Hire Expectations dives into a topic that does not get nearly enough attention. Men’s mental health. In honour of Men’s Mental Health Month, Nelson Borges joins us to talk about why safe spaces, real connection, and honest conversations matter more than ever. He breaks down the barriers that keep men silent and explains how peer support and community connection can completely change the game for emotional well being.Nelson shares practical steps men can take when they are struggling, including simple grounding strategies like the five second rule. We also explore how workplaces can build a culture that supports mental health year round rather than treating it like a once a year awareness campaign. For partners, friends, and family members, Nelson offers compassionate advice on how to show up for the men in your life without judgment or pressure.You will hear about helpful mental health resources, the role of technology in finding support, and the ripple effect that happens when one person chooses to reach out. At its core, this episode is about community support, courage, and breaking the stigma that still surrounds men asking for help. As Nelson says, it starts with compassion and it is absolutely okay to cry.
