Meet in the Samwich | Sam Don Barber | Episode 5, Season 2

“Guys have never taken a step back and said - Is this the role I want to accept in society?”
The moment has come! We meet Sam Don Barber on a beach in Tauranga, park our vans side-by-side, and kick back in The Barter Barber mobile to talk as seagulls fly overhead. This is a thought provoking conversation that will lead you to question your very conditioning. “The Sam’s" discuss their experiences of exploring men’s mental health in Aotearoa and take the conversation about gender to a new level for Tough Talk. Let us know what you think in the comments and share with your friends!
Welcome to Season 2 of Tough Talk, Going Deeper. These conversations are shared with the intention of breaking down the stigma surrounding men’s mental health. Psychologist Sam O'Sullivan discovers solutions by asking men to share their stories.

We get it, everyone is asking for money nowadays. So, why is Tough Talk worth donating to?
We aren't a big organisation, and so every dollar that is donated to us, goes straight into effective content and resources free for the community to use. We don't have organisational baggage. We don't have to pay for HR meetings, health and safety, big fancy offices, staff, etc.
Curious about what costs us $6000?
