  • Men's Mental Health: Unlocking the Subconscious to Improve Mental Health | Felicia Marie
    Mar 27 2026

    In this episode, Felicia Marie shares her powerful journey of overcoming a history of extreme trauma, addiction, and toxic cycles. From the outside, she was a mother of four and a high-achieving entrepreneur, but internally, she was battling compounded traumas and a nervous system in survival mode.

    This conversation highlights a reality many men face but rarely talk about: the deep-seated habit of suppressing emotions and the "mother wound" that often prevents men from accessing the nurturing they need to heal.

    As a certified hypnotherapist, Felicia explains what began to change for her when she discovered the power of subconscious reprogramming. She discusses how shifting the internal "filter" of our reality can lead to profound changes in wealth, leadership, and personal peace.

    What you'll hear:

    Why men often struggle in silence

    The pressure to appear fine

    How unaddressed pain builds over time

    A turning point in Felicia's life

    What starting to change looked like

    The role of community and support

  • Why So Many Men Are Quietly Struggling | Jeff Lowe
    Mar 20 2026

    In this episode, Jeff Lowe shares his experience with struggling in silence for years.

    From the outside, his life looked normal. He was working, providing, and showing up for his family. But internally, he was dealing with pain that no one could see.

    Jeff talks about what led him to one of the lowest points of his life and the moment that shifted everything.

    This conversation highlights a reality many men face but rarely talk about. The pressure to hold everything in, avoid showing emotion, and keep moving forward no matter what.

    Jeff explains what began to change for him, what helped him start working through it, and why having people around you matters more than most realize.

    What you'll hear:

    Why men often struggle in silence

    The pressure to appear fine

    How unaddressed pain builds over time

    A turning point in Jeff's life

    What starting to change looked like

    The role of community and support

  • The Next Generation of Men's Mental Health Leaders with Jaxon Smith
    Mar 6 2026

    In this episode of the Stay Mentally Strong Podcast, we sit down with Jaxon Smith, a young leader who is redefining what men's mental health support can look like.

    Instead of waiting for men to reach a breaking point, Jaxon created a community built around something powerful but often missing in today's world: brotherhood. Through his Men's Mental Health Community Club, guys gather in a place most wouldn't expect: Costco. No formal setting. No pressure. Just men walking side by side, talking, connecting, and realizing they're not alone.

    In this conversation, we explore why informal spaces can open doors that traditional settings sometimes can't, how community and accountability help men grow, and why connection might be one of the most important tools we have in preventing mental health crises.

    This episode is about leadership, vulnerability, and the next generation of men choosing connection over silence.

    If you're a man who has ever felt like you had to carry everything on your own, or someone who wants to better support the men in your life, this conversation is for you.
