  • Strength in Vulnerability: Masculinity and Emotions
    2023/07/04
    The Strength in Vulnerability: For too long Men - fathers, sons, and brothers - have learned that it's better to suppress than express. Emotions, especially vulnerable ones, have been tightly wrapped up in our high-vis shirts as ‘too weak, too feminine or too sensitive’.

Peter has worked as a Psychologist for more than 30 years. with extensive experience with men’s mental health and as a consultant to the World Health Organisation, UNFPA and UNESCO in more than a dozen countries.

  • Male Privilege: The Impact on Raising Children
    2023/07/04
    From birth, many boys are taught that to be a man you have to be competitive and emotionally tough and that vulnerability is a women's domain. How we socialise our children around privilege and entitlement impacts our society tremendously. Even in the most emotionally resourced families, boys and girls often see gender inequality constantly feeding into their subconscious through media, movies and books. This is the basis for what is referred to as male privilege. In this episode, we explore what it mean to be raising children in this culture. Sean Tonnet speaks with Luke Addinsall: therapist, consultant, facilitator and specialist in Mens Issues, whose work with men and families is changing our view on Masculinity and fathering.

  • Nature as Teacher
    2023/07/04
    Gareth Vanderhope, two times British Academy Award winner in Sound Design, Author, Health Educator and Dad speaks on the importance of nature, reading and sound for children's wellbeing. It has been well researched that children need nature for their senses; for learning and creativity, for empathy and resilience. This natural world is enhanced through the use of sound and stories in our lives, where reading plays such an important role in the lives of our children, families and communities. Gareth is just about to publish his first junior fiction adventure novel, laced with these themes.

    Join me - your host Sean Tonnet - as Gareth and I weave the love of adventuring, the joy of growing up and the dizzing heights of fathering, into a compelling story for a lifetime.

  • Speak Up! Depression and Anxiety in New Dads
    2023/07/04
    Recognising, responding to and repairing postpartum and antenatal depression and anxiety in dads.

    Pregnancy and the first year of parenthood is an exciting time that also brings many new challenges and responsibilities. It is now recognised that around 1 in 20 men experience depression during pregnancy (antenatal) and up to 1 in 10 new dads struggle with depression following the birth of their baby (postnatal). Anxiety is just as common, and many men experience anxiety and depression at the same time (sourced from PANDA.org.au). It’s these facts that inspired my guest, Dr Matthew Roberts in his work with men experiencing perinatal and antenatal, anxiety and depression. Though initiatives such as Town hall Dads and My Doctors Handwriting, Matthew is connecting fathers, building awareness and redefining the landscape for new parents.
