EP035 | Jack Halford | Why 'man up' needs a new meaning

In this introspective episode of Bare Chat, Jacky and Pete welcome Leicester-based artist Jack Halford, renowned for his unique fusion of psychology and microbiology in his paintings. Jack shares his artistic journey including the initial inspiration drawn from damaged cell tissues.


Delving deep into his personal history, Jack discusses overcoming the challenges of growing up with Asperger's, a diagnosis that clarified many of his early struggles. He opens up about the profound impact of losing his father, a pivotal moment that pushed him towards stoicism and physical fitness, reshaping his approach to mental and physical health.


Jack also touches on his passionate advocacy for men's mental health, inspired by his own experiences with vulnerability and societal expectations. His book "Man Up," encapsulates his thoughts on redefining masculinity and breaking the stigma surrounding male depression.
