Why are men less likely to talk about their health – and what’s that got to do with work?

In this episode of The Good Day at Work Podcast, host Matt Liggins is joined by clinical psychologist and Chief Clinical Officer for Handl's wellbeing division, Dr. Nick Zygouris, to explore the striking health inequalities affecting men – and how workplaces can be part of the solution.

From higher rates of suicide, cancer and heart disease to the pressures of social conditioning, Nick unpacks the cultural norms that often stop men from seeking help. Together, he and Matt explore the emotional costs of staying silent, and why employers need to create psychologically safe spaces where men can open up, feel supported and access the help they need.
