WAKE UP
Aug 12, 2022A RANT FROM ME TO YOU (POSTED TO IG STORIES)
Women initiate 75% of divorces
Keep telling yourself everything is fine men.
Keep telling yourself your wife is just being dramatic.
Keep burying your heard in the sand.
And
You'll become one of those statistics
It's not entirely mens fault
But
It is our responsibility to step up and do the work.
Society has been attacking men for 20+ years now.
Is it any wonder men are confused?
Is it any wonder divorce rates are the highest they have ever been?
Being "the man."
Has never been more important.
Which also means.
Understanding what being "the man" is.
Has never been more important.
Want your son to have more healthy male role models?
Want your son growing up with a brotherhood of men he can rely upon?
Or would you prefer him to become another statistic?
-Men and boys account for 3 in 5 avoidable deaths
-The leading cause of death in australian males in 2016 was coronary heart disease which now kills nearly 30 men a day
- 2 in 5 men have experienced violence once they turn 15
- 71% of men are overweight or obese
- 1 in 4 men are lifetime risky drinkers
- 1 in 2 men experience a mental health problem in their lives
The mentality these days is
"oh thats horrible"
Followed by the thought:
"but not my son, but not my husband, but not my brother, but not my friend."
It is your son, it is your husband, it is your brother and it is your friends.
Its exactly those people
At the very least we need to pretend like it is
Act as if the men in your life need suppport
Because odds are, statistically, they do
And if not now
Then they will soon
I'd rather be preventative with everything, when it comes to my son
But also all the men in my life
I dont just checkin with my mates when they are struggling
I checkin constantly
Because if i can help them
NOT STRUGGLE
NOT BECOME A STATISTIC
Isnt that better?
Isn't that better than getting them help or support AFTER they have gone through the shit?
It gets me so f*ck!ng fired up
Let me say this again
The MOST LIKELY WAY THAT A YOUNG MAN AGED 16-24 WILL DIE IS BY SUICIDE
ITS NOT A SMALL %
ITS THE MOST LIKELY WAY HE WILL DIE
WAKE UP PEOPLE
Our men are in pain!
But no one wants preventative
All of my cleints would do anything to go back in time and get their sons support before they started to really struggle
Our mission
My mission
Is to remove the unnecessary pain from our young mens lives
They need to know they DONT need to hit ROCK BOTTOM
Before we start giving a shit
"Oh my son won't do the work."
THAT SHOULD BE THE BIGGEST RED FLAG
Thats a sign he needs the work even MORE
We have to think in worse case scenarios
The reason men are suiciding at unprecedented rates is because they wont do the work
The beauty of being a parent is you can say "I dont care, you're doing this." AND THEY WILL.
Its a sign that he's struggling more than you probably realise
Dont let the men in your life become another statistic
Get him support
Get him a mentor
If one doesnt work
Find another one
Do not give up
Your sons life depends on it
"Oh my son won't do the work."
He also wouldnt:
go to the dentist
go to school
help with the dishes
clean his room
fill in the blank ______
if it wasnt for you making sure he did
so why is this any different?
He is struggling right?
Get him the support!!
Spend an hour with him each week to go through the course as you do something else
The pain of regret is shattering.
When I was depressed and anxious the last thing I wanted to do was look inward - but it wasn't until I did that I was able to step out from under my depression and anxiety!
All you're showing him is - the way to get better is to do nothing about it.
Imagine if he had a broken arm, or a concussion - and refused to go to the hospital?
Would you just say "oh ok, I guess I'll just try to remind you to get it fixed."
NO! You'd rush him to the hospital against his will and once he was out of pain he would say
THANK YOU!!!
Almost 90% of my clients go from "I don't want to do this"
to
"thank God I did this"
Your son isn't any different.

I have so much love for parents
I have so much love for men
It's hard out there for all of us
I get it, I've been there
In the pit battling alone
It's why I do this work
you dont need to do it alone
you dont need to battle it solo
let me help, support, mentor, guide.
our young mens lives are at stake.
If this post triggered you, made you angry, made you upset
FUCKING GOOD!!!!!
Now take that anger and take that sadness - and put it to good use for the young men in your life.
You have the power to change lives.
We have the power to change lives.
Share this, send this, buy a program, gift a program - do something - get a psychologist - get a therapist - find a different mentor or coach
I DON'T CARE
Just please - can we start to actually change the narrative for our young men?
Can we ACTION something?
Instead of reposting mental health memes and videos
Can we actually DO SOMETHING?
I know I'm trying my best as are parents, teachers, coaches and a multitude of other people... but I can't do it without you.
Some other great coaches and mentors doing amazing work should you not wish to work with me.
and of course
With the MOST love.
Dylan. Masculinity coach and mentor.
Work with me.
