When Max Skinner joined me on The Scott Townsend Show, he didn't just bring statistics from Movember's latest campaign; he brought his heart, steeped in personal tragedy and triumph. As we sipped on mushroom coffee—a morning ritual Max swears by—we ventured into a conversation that transcended mere awareness, tapping into the pulse of men's health issues that affect millions. The mustache, more than a quirky trend, symbolized a beacon of hope for men grappling with prostate and testicular cancer, and the dark shadows of mental health struggles.
Facing the reality that 75% of suicides in the U.S. are committed by men, our discussion peeled back the layers of societal expectations that often silence those in anguish. Movember's initiatives, illuminated by Max's insights, reveal a profound commitment not only to funding research but also to forging connections and conversations that can be as life-saving as any medical intervention. In underserved communities, these dialogues are even more critical, painting a picture of hope where despair has often reigned.
Max Skinner is the Community Development Manager at Movember, the leading global charity for men’s health. Max is responsible for generating over $6M annually for Movember’s health projects and initiatives.
