In this episode of If You Are My Brothers, host Reggie Hicks steps into the guest chair for a candid conversation with producer Dani about his own prostate cancer journey. Reggie breaks the silence around men’s health, reminding us that silence can be deadly. Together, they tackle every part of the experience — from difficult treatment decisions to the realities of side effects like fatigue, incontinence, and erectile dysfunction. Nothing is sugar-coated. The discussion also highlights the impact on mental health, relationships, and self-esteem, while emphasizing the importance of resilience and compassion in the healing process. Reggie reflects on the long road back to “normal life,” sharing both hopeful moments of recovery and the ongoing challenges of adjustment. Along the way, myths about prostate cancer are dismantled, showing that vulnerability is not weakness, but a strength that builds connection and empowerment.
Key takeaway: Talking openly about prostate cancer isn’t just healing — it’s lifesaving. These stories matter for brothers, fathers, uncles, and friends who need to hear them.
