I invited doctor, psychotherapist Artur Mixon to a conversation about men's hidden depression. This condition is difficult both for the person himself and for those around him. The subject of male depression has long been a taboo subject. Because of this, it has been more difficult for people to understand what is really going on and to deal with the situation as soon as possible. Men experience depression, but they often remain unaware of its presence in their lives for a long time. This prolongs the time in which the person does not receive the support he needs, and the consequences of depression negatively affect both him and the people close to him. Why it happens, what are the signs and how to fight it - I asked Dr. Mixon about it. You will find other interviews on the Cilvekjauda podcast with Dr. Mikson on the conversation page: https://cilvekjauda.lv/epizode/199/ HOW THIS EPISODE WAS MADE: 1) We recorded the episode in the premises of the business consulting and training company Training Lab. If you want to know what your team's unused potential is, I recommend using Training Lab's training on the genius of each person's work to see where your team's time and money are hiding: https://traininglab.lv/lencioni/ 2) We assembled the episode with support from participants in our newest program "Powerful Partnership". My husband, Michel, and I created this program so that Human Power fans can have an even cooler relationship with their loved ones, and for partners to be a stronger team, where everyone both achieves their goals and gets more joy in everyday life. If these topics are also relevant to you, then participate in the Powerful Partnership program this month. That way, you will do two good things at the same time - you will take care of the quality of your relationship, and you will also help us continue the Human Power podcast.
