RIP 🙏

“I’m not going to go to my mates and say I am crying every day. I want to kill myself. You just don’t do it.”
- Ricky Hatton

Heartbreaking words from one of the strongest men you could ever meet. A warrior in the ring, a champion in life. Yet even he carried demons he couldn’t defeat.

Please make no mistake - we are not winning the fight for men’s mental health. It’s getting worse.

The truth:
* Men take their own lives at almost 3x the rate of women.
* In England & Wales, male suicide reached 17.4 per 100,000 in 2023 - the highest in 20+ years.
* Middle-aged men remain most at risk.
* In the US 15% of men have no close friends.

Ricky’s cause of death is unknown. His years of battling his mental health are well documented.

People like Ricky are especially at risk. Being complex, driven, unique - it sets you apart, but it can also leave you isolated.

The higher the standards you set, the fewer people will “get” you. And that loneliness can be devastating.

Men today are struggling to know what being a man even means. For too long, we’ve been told strength means silence. But that definition is killing us.

We need a new masculinity:
* Courage in asking for help.
* Strength in vulnerability.
* Pride in speaking the truth.

Please know this. There will be a man, likely many men in your life fighting a battle in their heads they would be embarrassed to tell you about. I’ve been there.

Ricky’s words must spark action.

Let’s carry his truth forward. Let’s change what it means to be a man. And may a great champion rest in piece.

💛 Today is World Suicide Prevention Day.
No one should face their darkest moments alone. If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out, help is here.

We’ve shared a list of support services across the UK where you can find someone to listen, support, and walk alongside you. 💬✨

Together, we can break the silence, raise awareness, and remind each other that hope and healing are always possible. 🌍🕯️

Your energy level’s double when you stop beating yourself up. You used to dream about being here. Read that again. The frustrations you have today? They exist because you grew, leveled up, and set new standards for yourself. That’s a good thing.

When you stop to recognize that, frustration turns into fuel.

Keep going.

Follow me for more mindset and career education.

Wow – what an incredible and inspiring night we had on Tuesday!

We were truly fortunate to welcome the one and only Peter Ridgewell, author of All Men Are Made. Peter shared his powerful story of how far he has come, along with practical strategies to create positive change and the reassurance that none of us are ever alone.

His message gave men the strength to challenge destructive habits, break free from toxic addictions, and shift toward a healthier mindset.

In 2023, the male suicide rate in England and Wales rose to 17.4 deaths per 100,000 males, the highest level since 1999 and men accounted for around three-quarters of all registered suicides. That makes the work of gatherings like this all the more urgent & crucial!

A huge thank you to Peter for travelling all the way from Scotland, and to every man who showed up and took part.

Here’s to a bright and powerful future for MANKIND!🙏❤️
