## Resource

Recorded live at AlphaFest, this powerful and emotional episode features Bizza from Newcastle sharing his personal battle with mental health, anxiety, online criticism, and suicidal thoughts. After being publicly targeted and falling into a dark place, Bizza opens up about how community, mateship, podcasts, and seeking help changed the direction of his life. This raw conversation highlights the importance of men's mental health, checking in on your mates, speaking up when you're struggling, and finding strength through connection. Bizza explains how the Alpha Blokes, Proper True Yarn, Two Flogs Podcast and the wider AlphaFest community helped him step back from the ledge and rediscover purpose. A moving reminder that you're never alone, and that one conversation can change a life. 📞 Get involved🎤 Send a voice message to the boys.
