Silent Struggles in Men’s Mental Health & Rethinking Screen Time with Kids

In this episode of Discovering Journeys, we sit down with Patrick Eilers, a Licensed Professional Counsellor based in Michigan, for a conversation about two important and often overlooked topics: men’s mental health and the impact of screen time on children and adolescents. With years of experience supporting individuals across various age groups, Patrick shares his observations on the silent emotional battles many men face, why it remains difficult for them to seek help, and how we can create more open and supportive spaces. We also explore how the digital world is shaping our kids' emotional well-being, from anxiety and overstimulation to screen fatigue and social pressure.
