In today’s fast-paced world, burnout is becoming the silent epidemic among men. Whether it’s the pressure to excel at work, maintain relationships, or keep up with physical fitness, the weight of “doing it all” often leaves men emotionally drained and disconnected.

Today’s Men’s Therapy Podcast roundtable hosts a variety of competent guests. Marc welcomes Desmond Cohen. He is a psychotherapist and coach. Aidan Lee and Silvan Erb-Summers also join. Aidan Lee is the founder of FitRoots and Silvan is a somatic therapist. They unpack what work-life balance truly means for modern men.

“Most of the men I see are looking for relief from fear,” says Desmond Cohen. “And that fear isn’t about dying physically. It’s about social death. It’s the fear of losing connection, status, or belonging.” This profound insight captures the essence of how deeply emotional wellness is tied to identity and social perception for men today.

For Aidan Lee, balance begins with the body. “The first thing men let go of is their health,” he explains. “It’s not about becoming an athlete. It’s about having the energy to go from AM to PM without crashing.” Meanwhile, Silvan Silvan emphasizes the mind-body connection: “We can’t think our way out of imbalance. We have to feel it, in the body, to release it.”

Together, they present a holistic framework that blends psychology, fitness, and community to help men rebuild resilience and redefine strength in an age of relentless productivity.
