Ryan Martin: Biking Across Canada for Mental Health Awareness

Adversity isn't about avoiding it or dodging it. It's moving through it in a healthy way and in a way that's built around self-love and compassion and all these much healthier holistic lenses to managing my mental health and mental struggles.
Imagine taking on the challenge of biking across Canada, not just for the adventure, but to raise awareness and funds for mental health. That's exactly what Ryan Martin did. In this episode of 'Circle Up', Ryan opens up about his personal battles with mental illness and how he turned his struggle into a powerful mission. Diagnosed with a mental illness, Ryan didn't let stigma hold him back.
Instead, he decided to pedal his way across the country, raising over $100,000 for mental health advocacy. He shares candid stories about his journey, the daily habits that keep him grounded, and the support systems that have been crucial in his life. Ryan also dives into the therapeutic benefits of men's communities like Evryman and Circle Up, where vulnerability is seen as strength, not weakness.
His story is a testament to the power of self-love, positive self-talk, and finding safe spaces to process emotions. Whether you're dealing with your own mental health challenges or supporting someone who is, Ryan's insights offer valuable lessons on resilience and compassion. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that might just change the way you think about mental health.
