The MickMcDermott Podcast

In this episode, I explore one of the biggest contradictions I see in men today: we're quick to support others, but struggle to ask for help ourselves.
We discuss:
• Why so many men carry stress and pressure in silence
• The "I'll be grand" mindset and where it comes from
• Why suppression is often mistaken for strength
• My own experience with therapy and the stigma I felt
• Why many men wish they had asked for support sooner
A conversation about pressure, responsibility, and what men often carry behind closed doors.

This week I dive into a topic we discussed on our weekly community group call with the clients 
How much we can learn from our younger selves and our elders. 
We cover a lot in this chat, from worrying what others think of us, taking life too seriously, overthinking and much more. 
Here is the questions I talk about in the episode, grab a pen, a notebook and simply see what comes up. 
Where am I holding myself back because of fear of judgment?

Where am I abandoning myself to fit in?

What did the younger version of me naturally do better?

What would the 85-year-old version of me tell me to stop worrying about
