In this raw conversation - Goose and Sunshine talk frankly about men’s depression and anxiety—the “black dog,” the heavy-blanket days, the pride that fuels isolation—and the simple, proven actions that bring hope back: say it out loud, call a brother, pray the name of Jesus, lift heavy, get in the woods, show up anyway. We also cover medication without stigma (defibrillator, not forever), faith as a lifeline, and why isolation is terminal.
If you’re battling today, this episode is your permission to speak, reach, and move.
What you’ll learn
• How to break isolation and ask for help without shame
• Why talking out loud instantly reduces depression’s power
• Practical “today” moves: text a friend, walk a trail, lift heavy, breathe
• A faith lens: praying the name of Jesus when words are hard
• Medication without stigma (and how/when to revisit it)
• How brotherhood (tribe) keeps you from slipping back
If you’re in crisis, you are not alone. In the U.S., call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (24/7). Outside the U.S., please reach out to your local emergency number or crisis service.
