Being ‘man enough’ to admit that you’re drowning: Luke’s Story

When Luke - a musician, performer, and devoted dad - found himself lying on the floor in tears, overwhelmed by the weight of fatherhood, he faced a silent battle many men never admit to: postnatal depression. In this raw and deeply personal conversation, Luke shares how the arrival of his twins, and the pressure to be the "strong" provider, left him feeling lost, guilty, and unable to speak up.  From the chaos of emergency C-sections to the identity crisis of trading rap lyrics for nappy changes, Luke breaks down the stigma around men's mental health with host Davina Smith.   Gidget Foundation Australia has created a series of books called ‘Bunny Books’ to reach out to those that may be suffering.
