Movember started in 2003 in Australia — a few men grew moustaches to raise awareness for men’s health.
Now a global movement focusing on:
1. Prostate cancer
2. Testicular cancer
3. Men’s mental health and suicide prevention
3 Steps to Strengthen Your Mindset
Step 1 – Check In, Don’t Check Out. When stress hits, most men distract or push it down.
Instead, take a moment and ask:
“What’s really going on for me right now?” A small pause can stop a mental spiral before it starts.
Step 2 – Challenge the Voice in Your Head. If that inner critic says, “You should handle this on your own,” — question it. Would you speak that way to your best mate? Then don’t say it to yourself.
Step 3 – Connect to Release. Find one safe outlet — a mate, a mentor, a moment alone. Speaking your truth, or even writing it down, releases pressure and brings clarity. Connection is the cure for isolation.
