Men face social expectations that can hold them back. From being told to ‘man up’ to facing bias in relationships, work, or even as fathers, these outdated prejudices can have a huge impact on mental health.

This men-only session, led by James Elliott (MSc), will break down how society shapes the way men see themselves, why these pressures exist, and how to push back against them without losing yourself in the process. If you’ve ever felt misunderstood, undervalued, or trapped by social expectations, this is a session that will open your eyes and give you practical ways to navigate life on your terms.
