069: It Wasn’t Therapy That Saved Me

069: It Wasn’t Therapy That Saved Me

A returning voice, a mural artist, and a man who’s pulled himself from the edge more than once, Lini is back on the couch to catch us up on what he has learnt. After years of battling his own demons, digging deep into psychology, and speaking with thousands of others doing the same, he’s landed on a philosophy that challenges the way we think about mental health.

Lini doesn’t see it as illness... he sees it as pain. Not something to medicate and manage forever, but something to understand and cure at the root. In this chat, he unpacks where society’s gone wrong, where it’s trying, and why so many men are still slipping through the cracks.
