Breaking Free: The Power of Sharing Your Story

Episode Overview

  • Writing down negative thoughts can be liberating.
  • Repetitive negative thoughts can solidify into harmful beliefs.
  • Sharing struggles helps in finding support and compassion.
  • Societal pressures often prevent men from seeking help.
  • Transforming harmful beliefs requires effort and compassion.
When your thoughts are stored and repeated over and over, they become beliefs.
Ever wondered why men often keep their struggles bottled up? In this episode of The Motyv Podcast, Shayden Bertagnolli and Blake Altum dive into a powerful therapy session with a client named Joe, shedding light on the mental health challenges men face. Joe's story is a striking example of how writing down and vocalising negative thoughts can be liberating. Shayden recounts how Joe, burdened with self-defeating thoughts, found relief by listing them out loud during a two-hour session.
This episode explores the common societal pressures men face, like the 'man up' mentality, and how these pressures contribute to mental health struggles. Blake and Shayden discuss how repetitive negative thoughts can solidify into harmful beliefs, but also how these can be reshaped with effort and compassion. They emphasise the importance of sharing one's struggles and finding support, rather than battling alone.
By the end of the episode, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the power of sharing your story and how it can transform your mental well-being. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in mental health, particularly men's mental health, and offers practical advice for overcoming negative thought patterns. Tune in to learn how to break free from the chains of harmful beliefs and start your journey towards a healthier mind.
