When crisis, separation, or divorce turns life upside down, many men find themselves caught between silence and survival — struggling with identity, loneliness, and the weight of losing connection with their children. In this episode of Well Being with Ceejay Horrell, I’m joined by Bijan Rafii, Executive Director of the Canadian Centre for Men and Families in York Region. Together, we talk about what happens when the storm hits — how men can navigate emotional crisis, find their footing again, and rediscover healing and hope on the other side.
