Men are far less likely to talk about their mental health—but that doesn’t mean they don’t need to. Sometimes, just getting outside, walking, and having a low-pressure space to talk can make all the difference.
In this episode, journalist, broadcaster, and mental health advocate Paddy Silke shares how his own struggles led him to create a Men Walking and Talking group in his community. We talk about why men don’t open up, what actually happens on these walks, and how simply talking has helped hundreds of men feel less alone.
Key Takeaways from This Episode:✔ Why men often struggle to talk about mental health—and how to make it easier
✔ How walking and talking removes the pressure and creates a safe space
✔ The impact of having a regular, low-stakes place to connect
✔ Practical ways to support your own mental well-being (even if a group isn’t for you)
✔ How to find or start your own walking and talking group
