In this episode I talk to the inspirational Danny Turner.

Danny is the creator of Beyond The Clippers. A group which aims to raise awareness in men's mental health through the use of barbering and the industry.

We cover:

- Men’s mental health

- The significance of lived experience

- Getting men talking in the barbers

- Normalising conversations and reducing stigma and shame

- Encoring people to seek help

- Self-confidence and self esteem

- Creating long term change though helping other barbers to follow suit.
