EP206: Andy Grant - Men's Mental Health Needs To Be A Bigger Focus!!

Written By Chris Rodd

“The freedom in being wrong is growth, it’s expansion, it’s newness.” 

Most men aren’t taught how to process pain—they’re taught to hide it. And when that pain turns into isolation or hopelessness, there’s often no one there to catch it. This episode confronts the silence head-on, bringing clarity to why men must reclaim sacred, confidential spaces with other men. Not to fix each other—but to be witnessed, to be heard, and to remember they’re not alone. 

Andy Grant reveals how suicidal ideation nearly cost him everything, and why he’s now committed to making suicide among men a rarity, not the norm. He shares why masculine-only groups are critical to healing, the difference between being “right” and being “happy,” and how unspoken thoughts can turn poisonous when trapped in the mind too long. This isn’t therapy—it’s brotherhood. 

Andy Grant is a men’s coach, speaker, and the host of the Real Men Feel podcast. He’s also the creator of TheAndyGrant.com and founder of RealMenFeel.org, where he offers men’s circles, meditations, and resources to support mental wellness, emotional freedom, and authentic masculinity.
