In this episode, I sit down with Mariel Anderson—Founder and Executive Producer of the Shine Foundation of Artistic Expression—for a conversation that does what we do not do nearly enough: speak plainly about mental health without shame, without posturing, and without pretending men are unaffected.

Mariel helps break the silence and brings real insight into how men can improve relationship dynamics—through emotional literacy, honest communication, healthier boundaries, and accountability that does not collapse into self-hatred. This is not a lecture and it is not “fix yourself” culture. It is a candid dialogue about what it takes to understand yourself, show up better, and build relationships that are safe, stable, and real.

If you are tired of surface-level advice and ready for truth, this conversation is for you.
