How can we better support the men in our lives? What are some tools to combat the alarming statistics around men’s mental health? This week I spoke with Movember Director of Development Mitch Hermansen who I’m proud to call a friend and fellow MoBro.I got to ask him about his passion for supporting men’s health through Movember every year by growing a moustache and raising money. Movember supports research into men’s prostate cancer research, testicular cancer research and men’s mental health.Warning: we mention suicide in this episode.
