Cameron Ahouse is a mental health advocate, fitness and strength training creator, and the manager of community marketing for the men's activewear brand Rhone.
Cameron and Rhone have been shining a light on Men's mental health conversations and stigma through their Mind & Muscle events- a men's group workout followed by a thoughtful discussion focused on mental health.
In this episode We Chat About:
-Cameron's background and what lead him to lead these events
-Rhone's (Men)tal Healthy T-Shirt collection in partnership with Men's Health and 100% of net proceeds benefiting Mental Health America
-How using exercise and group workouts as a medium for these conversations allows for vulnerability and higher bonds within the community.
"The goal of these events are to show men that Rhone is a safe space where they can be as vulnerable and open as they feel comfortable–a space where there's no judgment. Too often men are told that they need to act a certain way or hide their feelings and that stigma needs to change. My hope is that with each event another man in the community realizes that there are other men going through or that have gone through similar situations and they are never in anything alone–that we can all relate to one another on some level and be there to lean on."
-Cameron Ahouse

Talented musician and great friend of mine Noah Whiteside joins the podcast to chat about what has worked for him. He shares how his unique taste in music helped him find his style, and how his love for creating music has helped him discover and love who he is.
We chat about the sober scene in music, the touring lifestyle, and Noah's favorite meditative practice. I loved his take on mental health awareness in men and how we as fellow "bro's" can be there for each other.
We also have an exclusive look at his new song "Whenever You Want It"
