Show Notes

Max Browne is back on Real Pod for a much-needed men’s mental health convo. Vic and her husband, Max, unpack why so many men feel pressure to be stoic, the generational messages they’ve absorbed (like “man up”), and why anger is often the only emotion society allows them to show. Max shares his experiences with anxiety, therapy, and performance pressure from his football career, and how learning to express his emotions has made him a better partner, friend, and man. They also dive into how couples can create emotional safety, shift unhealthy gender roles, and hold space for each other’s needs. If you’ve ever felt frustrated by a partner who won’t open up or you’re a guy trying to navigate your own mental health, this episode will leave you seen, validated, and better equipped. Send it to the men in your life so that you can keep fostering these open conversations and keep growing in your mental health journeys together!
