Men’s Mental Health Month continues and baby… we are officially in Part Four — the part nobody teaches you about. We’ve done why men don’t open up, we’ve done how to make space, we’ve done the emotional aftermath… and now we’re talking about the maintenance.
AKA: the grown-up shit.
The boring-but-necessary shit.
The “stop waiting for a meltdown to communicate” shit.
In this episode we dive into what it actually takes for BOTH sides to keep emotional growth going:
✨ Maintenance for men (emotional reps, accountability, pausing before shutdown)
✨ Maintenance for the people loving men (support without becoming a therapist)
✨ Maintenance for the relationship (check-ins, repair cycles, softness)
✨ Why dogs be knowing when your man ain’t right (Mailbag Mayhem got WILD today)
✨ And the funniest listener letters that prove some of y’all are living inside a sitcom
Plus: weekly updates, holiday chaos, the food drive, the toy drive, and yes — the Black Friday/Cyber Monday code: pillowtalkfriday because I love you and your wallet.
This episode is soft, messy, emotional, hilarious, and a little bit unhinged.
Just how we like it.
Hit play, laugh, cringe, self-reflect, and text this to someone who needs emotional maintenance and a nap.
