Launch day for Men’s Therapy Hub and episode one of our new podcast, No Man’s an Island. Chris Hemmings talks with co‑host Dr Jett Stone about boyhood, therapy that fits men, and why men need spaces where they belong. This page gives you the essentials, links, and the full transcript.

- Early exits from therapy and how to build a better first session for men
- Directness, plain English and appropriate self‑disclosure
- Strength and sensitivity as compatible traits

Takeaways for men
- You are not a burden when you speak your pain – silence spills out elsewhere later
- Vulnerability is not tears alone – try small experiments with someone you trust
- Therapy is a relationship – shop around, choose the person who feels safe
