🌟 Welcome to another insightful episode of Mental Man Mondays on PSA: The Mental Health Podcast! This week, Izzy is joined by @Billionairemind_jh, a dynamic entrepreneur originally from St. Louis who now resides in Atlanta. Together, they dive deep into a range of thought-provoking and impactful topics, especially for men navigating today’s complex world.
🔍 Episode Breakdown:
The episode kicks off with a lively discussion on crypto. Jordan, a crypto expert, breaks down the current state of cryptocurrency, sharing insightful and practical insights. Izzy also opens up about his ghostwriting service and the concept of being called to the “mountain of influence,” particularly in education.
Next, they recap Track 5 of the As A Man series, Why Are You A People Pleaser? They delve into the dangers of people-pleasing, exploring how it can drain your mental health and why it’s essential to prioritize your own needs. The conversation includes the concept of “not giving an F budget,” mentioned in the episode, with both Jordan and Izzy reflecting on their journeys away from people-pleasing. They emphasize the importance of setting boundaries as a man and the mental resilience needed to avoid falling into the people-pleaser trap.
The second topic tackles the recent controversy surrounding singer Tyrese. Tyrese went viral after criticizing President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for enacting the Asian Hate Crime Bill while, in his view, neglecting the Black and Latino communities. This led to a heated exchange with Roland Martin, which split the Black community. Izzy and Jordan dissect this situation from various angles, discussing the implications for racial justice and community solidarity.
Finally, they turn their attention to Mendeecees from Love & Hip Hop Atlanta. Mendeecees has recently stopped wearing his wedding ring, sparking discussions about the message this sends to men, especially those who are married. Izzy and Jordan explore how this behavior can be seen as disrespectful, comparing it to someone who identifies as a Christian but fails to represent their faith publicly.
