Get in Touch

This June — Men’s Health Month — we dive deep into a topic that too often goes undiscussed: men’s mental health.

In this thought-provoking episode of Diagnostics and Beyond, I sit down with Dr. Edwin Boachie-Yiadom, one of Ghana’s leading clinical psychologists, to explore the emotional weight men carry, the trauma we suppress, and the silent battles we fight every day.

From the pressure to perform, to the fear of being vulnerable, to how culture and identity shape emotional wellbeing; this conversation is raw, insightful, and overdue.

🎧 Whether you’re a man, woman, student, or professional — you’ll find pieces of yourself in this conversation. Because mental health isn’t a gendered issue. It’s a human one.

🎧 Listen. Reflect. Share.
And remember — your story matters.
