We can all take action to live healthier, happier and longer lives.

Did you know that men die on average six years earlier than women, and for reasons that are largely preventable? Which means that it doesn’t have to be that way.

The Movember movement was started 18 years ago, to “change the face” of men’s health and help men live happier, healthier, longer lives.

This Movember, the Empowered in My Skin podcast, is opening up the conversation around Men’s Health. Our goal is to help unpack what it means and how it feels to struggle and grapple with the idea of masculinity and take a deeper dive into the root of common men’s health and mental health issues.

In this episode, John Colinson shares his personal story of his health journey. John is an experienced Technology Executive at one of Canada's leading financial institutions.

During this pandemic season, while looking at his watch one day, John noticed that he was only getting in 2000 steps. Quickly realizing this was not enough, he laced up his sneakers, looked at how he can improve his food consumption, and took matters into his own hands.

He started with small steps, and made small improvements over time. As you learn about his journey, you will quickly see the power that lies within all of us when we commit to our health with a level of consistency that has no bounds.

We also get John to share about his journey to vulnerability and what that has meant for him. You will quickly learn that vulnerability helps us with being a well human. We love the simple life philosophy that John shares, and we know that you will to.
