That’s carried over from the clip captions, where each arrow marks a quote from the episode. This one is you talking, so it reads better as plain lines.

A teacher told a six-year-old boy to stop crying.

AnnaLynne McCord told me this story about her nephew Jude. He said “My mommy said tears are healthy to express.” The teacher kept going anyway.

That’s where it starts. Boys learn early that feeling things is weakness, and a lot of them carry that for the rest of their lives.

Today I fly out to walk the Kokoda Track for a documentary on why so many men are struggling and still not talking about it.

Follow along. It’s going to be raw.

I’m raising money for The Man Cave, who get to boys before they learn to shut down. If you can support, the donate link is in my bio.

“I’m 70 years old. I’ve known that I was living with DID for 59 years, and today’s the first day that I accepted myself.”

→ “Because you were honest about this... then I’m not crazy.”

→ “I get this opportunity to be a sprinkle in someone else’s life.”

→ In our full conversation, AnnaLynne opens up about childhood trauma, her DID diagnosis, and how she went from 90% dysregulation to 90% peace.

→ Honesty gives other people permission. That’s why I’m walking the Kokoda Track next week for a documentary on why so many men are struggling in silence.

→ I’m raising money for The Man Cave, helping teenage boys build emotional strength before they learn to shut down. Donate at the link in my bio.

I’ve been advocating for mental health for 17 years, and it started for very personal reasons.

I struggled a lot when I was younger with Anxiety, and honestly, it’s something I still manage today. I put so much pressure on myself to be more, to do more, to be everything I thought I was supposed to be and for a long time, I was lost.

That’s exactly why I feel so strongly about the work The Man Cave do.

They’re Australia’s leading preventative mental health charity for teenage boys, running full-day workshops in schools across Victoria and NSW, giving boys the emotional tools nobody sat down and taught to me. Since 2014, they’ve reached over 100,000 young men.

Before their programs, 29% of boys said they rarely felt able to talk openly with their friends. After, 88% said they now have the tools and confidence to support a mate who’s struggling.

This Sunday I’m walking the Kokoda Track of 96km through the PNG jungle, in support of their work.

If you’re able to, even a small amount put toward the GoFundMe means a lot, it goes directly to The Man Cave as part of doing this trek (link in bio).

Thank you 🙏

This Sunday I leave to walk the Kokoda Track in support of The Man Cave , Australia’s leading preventative mental health charity for young men and boys.

Young men need support, tools and education and The Man Cave provides all three, I’ve seen firsthand how much it matters.

This conversation is so important we’re making a documentary about it.

If you’d like to support the cause, link’s in my bio and in the comments below. Every dollar goes a long way. 🙏

Men crying isn’t weakness

What does healthy masculinity look like?

09/23/2026

On my way back to Melbourne for the final preparations before we head to Papua New Guinea to begin filming The Long Way Home.

We need to be having more honest conversations about men’s mental health, masculinity, what healthy masculinity actually looks like, and why so many young men are feeling lost and being pulled in the wrong direction.

A big part of this film is asking what men are carrying beneath the surface - and what happens when there’s nowhere left to hide from it.

If you’d like to support the documentary, there’s a donation link in my bio. You can also donate directly to The Man Cave (link also in bio).

More soon.
