The Silent Epidemic of Declining Mental Health – Wiser Together EP 56

Wiser Together

Get ready for an eye-opening session with mental fitness trailblazer Hunter Karam. In Wiser Together EP 56: The Silent Epidemic of Declining Mental Health, host Parmeet Kumar sits down with Hunter, founder of the Mental Fitness Collective and a dynamic voice in the movement, to unpack the hidden crisis eroding our minds. Hunter shares the breakthrough studies and personal experiences that shaped his mission to make mental fitness as routine as physical exercise.

Together, they dive into why our collective mental well-being is quietly collapsing, what it’s costing us, and how simple practices like breathwork, gratitude and the N.A.C.A framework can build resilience before breakdown occurs. From the shocking solitude shock study to the science of rewiring your brain with intentional “mental reps,” you’ll walk away with concrete tools to reclaim your focus, purpose and inner strength.
