Reviews
"Fantastic platform for men to be vulnerable and speak openly about mental health. Dr Chris had an awesome idea when he decided to create this platform - it's not to get quick fixes but more to enjoy a burger and glass of beer / wine with fellow men and realize you're not the only one with your type of issues; there are others that have the same struggles and we can learn from each other.
