A guide to navigating the every day reality of cancer.

Three Obstacles To Getting The Support You Want

If you are going through a challenging time in your life, it can be difficult to find the right time, or the right words, to talk about it.

After his own struggles with cancer and mental health, this is the challenge that life coach and author Joe Bakhmoutski knows only too well. 

In this insightful talk, Joe will share how men can get the support that they want on their terms, and discuss how partners and friends can support their man in a challenging time without throwing him off. 

Join us to find better ways in tackling stress and uncertainty this World Mental Health Day!
