About this listen

In this premiere episode of Hope Heroes, Dr. Mena Mirhom sits down with Dr. Jay Barnett—former NFL player, therapist, and nationally recognized speaker—to break down one of the biggest misconceptions in sports and society: the myth of men’s mental health.

For years, athletes and men everywhere have been told to “man up,” “push through,” and “never show weakness.” But at what cost? Dr. Barnett shares his powerful journey from the NFL to the mental health field, opening up about the unspoken struggles elite athletes face, the real cost of suppressing emotions, and how we can rewrite the narrative on what it truly means to be strong.

This episode is for anyone who wants to break the silence, challenge outdated mindsets, and champion a healthier, more honest conversation about mental wellness for men—on and off the field.

🎧 Listen now and join the movement to redefine strength!
