"Mind of a Man" with Peter Monson, Associate Clinical Mental Health Counselor at Project Connection

In this episode titled "Mind of a Man", I sit down with Peter Monson, an Associate Clinical Mental Health Counselor at Project Connection. Peter brings deep insight from his work with men battling trauma, anxiety, and depression. We dive into the silent weight men carry, the damaging impact of societal expectations, and the cultural silence that often surrounds their emotional struggles.

Together, we explore what it means to hold space for the men in our lives, how therapy can truly be a game-changer, and why vulnerability is not weakness, it's strength. We also talk about small, powerful ways men can take care of their mental health every day.

This episode is for every man who’s ever felt like he had to carry it all alone—and for the people who love them. My hope is that this conversation brings light, connection, and hope to someone who needs it.
