the mentl space
the mentl space is a podcast for open, honest conversations about mental health, wellbeing, leadership and the cultures that help people thrive.
Hosted by Scott Armstrong, founder of mentl, the show brings together leaders, psychologists, doctors, authors, athletes, entrepreneurs, advocates and people with lived experience to explore what mental health means in real life, at work, at home and in the community.
From workplace wellbeing, burnout, psychological safety and inclusion, to parenting, men’s mental health, resilience, digital wellbeing, leadership and the human stories behind change, each episode asks what it really takes to move from awareness to action.
This is a space for practical insight, personal honesty and better conversations about how we live, lead and support one another.
Because when we talk more openly, we make it easier for everyone to thrive.

"I couldn't stop crying." How grief shaped one man's journey into wellness

Men, what is the price of our silence?
How do we calculate the cost of bottling up the things which impact us?
Ultimately, there is always a bill to settle with ourselves.
In this powerful episode of 'the mentl space', former professional golfer Simon Dunn, founder of The Lighthouse Retreat, shares his deeply personal experience with his own mental health, and how unresolved grief began to show up in his life.
He shares his story as mentl and The Lighthouse Retreat look ahead to their three-day Men's Mental Health retreat, taking place on the shores and in the desert of Ras Al Khaimah.
In this third episode we go deeper into how mental health shows up in men's lives, how our inability to talk about it is literally killing us, and explores some more of the activities on offer during the three days, such as a barefoot trek through the desert and a fireside chat under the stars.
And, we'll talk about practices which may be new to men, such as Reiki and sound healing.
If you haven't checked out our previous two episodes it's well worth doing so, as we explore the full weekend's programme, including 'fire and ice', saunas and icebaths, the science behind fasting, setting goals for life, yoga and paddle boarding, as well as the dessert experience.
