Male Mind Matters
Luke Clark: Finding Strength In The Struggle
In this deeply honest conversation, I sit down with Luke from The Stress Sessions to explore his journey through anxiety, depression, sobriety, and fatherhood. We talk about how being diagnosed with mental health challenges brought both relief and fear, the pivotal role therapy has played in his recovery, and why becoming a dad unlocked something new in his emotional life. Luke also shares his experiences of working through the shame of early struggles, how quitting alcohol reshaped his identity, and why open, vulnerable conversations with others - even strangers, has been life-changing.
We dive into the reality of living with anxiety long-term, the evolution of The Stress Sessions podcast, and the importance of choosing the right therapist. Luke’s story is proof that pride, growth, and healing come from facing the hardest parts of yourself head-on.
This one’s about survival, growth, connection, and finding strength when you least expect it.
