Episode #38 - Real Help Looks Like...

---

Season 1 Episode 38

---

📅 Recorded Live on June 26, 2026 @ 9 PM CT on YouTube In this next-level continuation of our Mental Health Without the Bullsh*t series, we’re diving deeper into what real support looks like—not just therapy or self-care lip service, but the kind of help that actually sticks. Drawing from Evan’s raw and vulnerable blog post (https://evanfrancen.com/2025/05/23/real-help-looks-like/), and the 8th entry this 11-part series, this episode peels back the layers of stigma, complexity, and what happens when we stop pretending we’re “fine.”

Expect:

• Candid conversation about why most “help” falls flat—and how to fix that
• Real-world examples from folks in infosec and beyond, who’ve felt crushed—but found a way out
• Tactical insights you and your people can use—before the burnout or breakdown hits

This isn’t a feel-good pep talk—it’s a raw, no-BS discussion for anyone tired of the usual mental health fluff in cybersecurity.

Join Evan and co-host Matt Goodacre for an honest, unfiltered conversation—grab your drink, silence your phone, and dive in.
