Bring Change 2 Mind, in partnership with Brandon Marshall’s Project 375, launched #StrongerThanStigma to raise awareness around the unique challenges that men face when discussing mental health, to encourage open dialogue, and to promote help seeking behavior.
#StrongerThanStigma features four inspirational male figures from professional sports leagues, television, and the music industry who have made mental health advocacy a part of their platform. These headliners are Brandon Marshall, NFL All-Pro wide receiver for the New York Jets; Ben Scrivens, NHL goalie for the Montreal Canadiens; Michael Angelakos, lead singer of indietronica band Passion Pit; and Wayne Brady, comedian and actor. Each shares his story, and encourages men to start the conversation and end the stigma.
Wayne Brady is an award-winning actor, singer, comedian, and television personality. During 2014, a year that marked his 1,001st episode as the host of Let's Make a Deal and his second season on the revival of Whose Line Is It Anyway?, Wayne experienced a breakdown on his 42nd Birthday that inspired him to speak publicly for the first time about his Depression. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight’s Nischelle Turner, he detailed his secret battle and the stigma that had prevented him from speaking up sooner. Since identifying these barriers that kept him from seeking help, Wayne is using his story to inspire others to start talking about mental health.
