Yesterday we had an intergenerational conversation (ages 17 - 53) with powerful black men who are community leaders.

We discussed mental health, the definition of community care, resources, hidden barriers and influences, and solutions to ongoing violence in Asheville.

June was Men’s Mental Health Month and since the monthcame to a close, let’s remember that the conversation shouldn’t.

Too often, men are taught to carry the weight of the world in silence to be strong, to push through, to never let others see them struggle. But true strength is found in vulnerability, asking for help, and creating spaces where honesty is welcomed without judgment.
Mental health affects all of us, and when men feel safe enough to share their stories, seek support, and prioritize their well-being, families, friendships, and entire communities become stronger.

Shoutout to our on-air personality, Alladream who has been intentionally using his platform to uplift, encourage, and create conversations around men’s mental health. If you haven’t already, go check out his page and show him some love. We need more voices that remind men they are seen, valued, and never have to carry life’s burdens alone.
