Let’s Talk About Men’s Health

​Have you checked in with the men in your life lately?

In the month of November, many men grow out their beards and moustaches in honour of Movember. The point of this event is to encourage conversations about men’s health and wellbeing.

Our society often pushes ideas that men’s value is derived from their ability to appear strong and emotionless. Resultingly, many men suffer in silence through both physical and mental hardship. This strain decreases their quality of life pushes away the people who want to support them.

Livin promotes an important message: ‘It ain’t weak to speak’. This slogan helps break the stigma surrounding men’s mental health. It is not a weakness to speak up when things are going wrong, but instead a sign of strength.

This month empire group are checking in with the men in our lives and reminding them that we value them beyond their demonstrations of strength. We are checking in and speaking candidly about men’s physical and mental health and encourage you to do so too.
