It's principally aimed towards men of a certain age who are willing to think about how they're doing without the hand-wringing and without being made to feel like a problem to be solved. Of course, people who care about such men may also find the content useful.</p>\n<p>The podcast is also an adapted audio version from my website, drjerrykennard.com. Topics covered here span mental health, relationships, work, retirement, physical wellbeing and the various transitions that tend to ambush you just when you thought you had things figured out. I've tried to keep the tone informed, honest and light-hearted, because if you've lived long enough, you know that life frequently is.</p>\n<p>I'm not here to tell you what to think, how to feel or how to behave. But if you find that something on this site helps you think a little differently, or feel a little less alone with something you've been carrying, then I've done my job.<br /><br /></p>\n<p><a href=\"https://ko-fi.com/jerrykennard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Support the site with a donation</a></p>","icons":[{"src":"https://deow9bq0xqvbj.cloudfront.net/image-logo/22299672/midlife_logo_300x300.jpg","sizes":"300x300","type":"image/png"}]}
