Movember: More Than a Mustache - A Movement for Men's Health

"Don't keep that shit bottled up. Don't fucking burden yourself to a point that you can't fucking live anymore. You are awesome, you're fucking amazing. Smash it."
Ever thought growing a mustache could be a powerful statement? In this episode of the Craving Wolves Addiction Podcast, host Carel van Heerden dives into the heart of Movember, a movement dedicated to raising awareness about prostate and testicular cancer, men's mental health, and the alarmingly high suicide rates among men. Carel passionately discusses why it's crucial for men to open up about their struggles and emotions, challenging the stereotype that men must always be tough and stoic.
He shares his own journey of overcoming addiction and bad habits, using the metaphor of the 'good wolf' and 'bad wolf' to explain the importance of regulating dopamine release from food and other sources. Throughout the episode, Carel encourages listeners to participate in Movember by growing mustaches and donating to the cause. He emphasizes that seeking help and sharing one's struggles is not a sign of weakness but a testament to strength and self-awareness.
By the end of the episode, you'll feel inspired to share your own stories and support others in their journey towards better mental and physical health. Tune in to hear more about how you can make a difference this Movember.
