mate to mate at 8 | Chris Lytas - Right Mate
In this episode of mate to mate at 8, Turts caught up with Chris Lytas, co-founder of Right Mate, for a raw and honest conversation about men’s mental health.
Chris co-founder of the men’s health foundation Right Mate, based in the Greater Geelong region. In 2016 Chris lost a mate to suicide. At the time he did what he knew best - and threw himself into a new job and ‘got on with life’. But all was not ok and only 3 months later Chris started on his plan to take his own life.
In this chat Chris reflects on his own experiences of living with anxiety and depression, facing down suicide and the changes he has been able to make in his life to not only address his own demons, but help other blokes with theirs.
