Hello and welcome to the Just Mates podcast where we discuss the effects of mental health on men. This podcast is hosted by Nafees Akhtar and Sam Mitchell.
Whatever is discussed can relate to all ages and genders BUT our objective is to remove the stigma behind men not being able to speak up about their thoughts, emotions and other related issues.

Recovery is the single most important part of any process that requires performance. Whether it be in the gym, at work or recording a podcast, taking time out is vital. We initially stood down for a number of weeks to catch our breath and focus on other things.
But it seems life swept us up from our feet and we were dragged into other things that consumed our time. This is not a bad thing, in fact it’s just setting goals and priorities straight for the time being” During this time we’ve had an opportunity to reflect and above all...chill out.
There’s no shame in taking a time out for your mental health. We couldn’t recommend it more. Now we’re back with more energy than ever before! We hope you enjoy this week’s podcast! Love x

33. Hope
Studies have shown that having hope for the future helps build our resilience. Whilst losing hope can result in anxiety and other related mental health problems.
Whether you’re a pessimist or optimist by nature, having some form of hope can be crucial to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. We, in this podcast often refer to ourselves as optimistic pessimists. Be confident of what the future might hold, but prepare yourself for things not playing out as planned. That is life at the end of the day.
Hope gives us the determination, and sense of empowerment that allows them us reach our goals. Set your objectives straight, envision where you might want to be and surround yourself with people who want the best for you. We hope you enjoy this episode of our podcast!

32. Confidence
How can I build my confidence and self-esteem? These are often two very difficult questions which most of us face at some point in our life. Confidence levels can change throughout your life and across different areas of your life. Many things can influence your confidence, for example your thoughts, feelings, actions and past experiences.
That is why we as humans vary from person to person in how confident we feel in ourselves. There is not one size fits all answer to improve your self esteem. However, in this podcast we touch upon several suggestions as to how you can improve your confidence and rise above issues that causes lower self esteem. Enjoy!
