Gen 2 Gen Ep. 8 "Mental Health"

Five men. One table. This time, the conversation is about men's health — mental and physical, and how much they're actually the same conversation. This episode digs into the phrase "man up" and who it actually helps, why so many of us wait until we're breaking down to say anything out loud, and how physical health and mental health feed each other more than most people admit. The table also gets into social media's effect on how we process pain in public, what it means to raise sons and daughters who exceed where we started, and where the line is between defending yourself and getting pulled into cycles of violence that were never really about you. At the table: Malik Jones – MMA fighter & personal trainer Deshaun "JJ" – VCU student, aspiring psychiatrist Nico – boxer, barber & entrepreneur Ru – actor, entrepreneur, mental health advocate James Harris – veteran, therapist, founder of Healing Hub Hosted by Shawn Starling New episodes of Generation to Generation drop regularly.
