There was a lot going on in my head…
felt like a cyclone most days.
Everything at once.
Work pressure.
Providing.
Trying to be everything I thought I had to be.
But I didn’t talk about it.
I just kept going…
because in my head, that’s what a man does.
You push through.
You handle it.
You don’t say anything.
But keeping it all in… doesn’t make you stronger.
It just gets louder.
And after a while… it starts affecting everything.
How you show up.
How you think.
How you connect at home.
That’s something I had to learn.
I’ve also had to learn I’m not just a provider.
I’m a husband.
I’m a dad.
And that means being present too… not just physically, but mentally.
Still working on that now.
If you’re dealing with that same noise in your head — you’re not alone 🤍
Whanau first. Always. 🤍
