  • The Hive Nation Ep. 67 Growing the Discussion on MenTell Health with Zak H.
    Jun 5 2024

    Jason and Greg sit down with The Host of The Canadian Podcast: ZAK

    The MenTELL Health campaign objective of #MenTELLHealth is to bring awareness and diminish the stigma surrounding men's mental health in the Month of June 2023.

    MenTELL.ca was born out of a pressing need to address the significant gaps in men's mental health care across Canada. Founded by a handful of men during Men's Mental Health Awareness Month in June of 2023, the initiative grew from a collective concern among diverse Canadians-from entrepreneurs and artists to military veterans and first responders

    —who recognized the profound silence and stigma surrounding men's mental health issues. This group, moved by personal experiences and the stories of men struggling in silence, came together to create a platform for change. They launched a social media and in-person campaign aimed at breaking down barriers and fostering open discussions about mental well-being

    By encouraging men to speak up and release the emotional burden that hinders their personal growth, Zak and his team at MenTELL Health (https://instagram.com/mentell.ca) aim to facilitate a transition toward a more peaceful and fulfilling life for all individuals involved.

  • The Hive Nation Ep. 66 SACHINMOTION 60km a Day for 52 Days
    May 29 2024

    Jason and Greg sit down with Veteran & 1st Responders’ Mental Health Advocate Sach Latti

    Donate to the Sach.In.Motion Fund: https://form.123formbuilder.com/6647897/sach-in-motion-donation-form

    Starting June. 5th, 2024 Global Running Day Sach will be running 60km a day for 52 days consecutively.

    Sachin Latti is the heart of Sachinmotion. With a growing team of supporters around him, his goal is to raise money and awareness for veterans & first responders in need of help as they heal from PTSD & mental health illnesses, as these issues have been a part of his life.

    Running was never his strong suit. He grew up wrestling at his high school in Plano, Texas, where he learned the value of hard work. However, this commitment to hard work wavered as he returned to Canada after secondary school and lost his passion for health and fitness.

    As Sachin entered his late 20’s, he realized, sitting at 230lbs & clearly overweight, that something had to change. A gym membership was the first step and he soon began to get into lifting. It was a sanctuary for his mental & physical growth.

    Throughout the span of 15 years, Sachin had competed as a bodybuilder and found a love for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, however, his life adjusted in 2020 when he found that his only resource for staying fit and staying sane, while challenging himself, was to hit the pavement and run.
