Behind every tragic statistic is a compounding weight men hide until it completely breaks them. In this episode of A Brothers Mind, we sit down with Gemma Forsythe to unpack the unspoken pressures men face daily and why so many suffer in silence.
Gemma shares her unique perspective working inside male-dominated environments, revealing what often goes unnoticed on job sites: the emotional toll of tradie culture, the masks men wear, and why genuine empathy and leadership are urgently needed before someone reaches their absolute limit.
