Ask a counsellor, mate
Real problems.
Straight talk.
One minute.
Anonymous questions from blokes. Grounded answers from an Aussie with a counselling diploma, a PT background and time on the footy field. No textbook talk.
For the things you don’t always say out loud.
The format
Your words. A grounded answer.
The Bloke Talk promise
Less jargon. More useful.
You don’t need the perfect words.
Relationships, stress, shutting down or feeling stuck. If it’s playing on your mind, it’s worth talking about.
Put it into your own words
Questions come in anonymously through an Instagram question box or Google Form. Leave out names and identifying details; keep the bit you’re struggling with.
One question. One minute.
Selected questions become short videos: the problem read aloud, followed by a straight, grounded answer in under 60 seconds. Not every question will be featured.
Take something into real life
A different way to look at it. A conversation to try. A small next step. Something useful to think about, or share with a mate who needs it.
Start with one sentence
What’s on your mind, mate?
Try writing it down first. You don’t have to solve the whole thing today — just name the part that’s hard.
