Not A Pity Party podcast by Resilience Collective overturns the stereotype that those living with mental health conditions are helpless, constantly feeling sorry for themselves, and a victim to their illness. Through this podcast featuring peer voices and stories of discovery, self-empowerment and peer support, we want to inspire hope and courage in our listeners to know that mental health recovery is real. It is possible to exit the pity party and to find new purpose and meaning in the midst of mental health challenges. Through RC’s strong peer community, peers are able to empower each other and foster mental resilience as they navigate their mental health journeys.

episode 5: Disempowering Toxic Masculinity, Bro Culture and Pity Parties - Not A Pity Party Podcast S01E05 - Amos & Nisha
Trigger warning, this episode includes a description of suicidal thoughts. Listener discretion is advised.
In this episode, you’ll meet Amos who explains that you don’t need a diagnosis to receive mental health support. He shares how hearing stories of other peers sparked hope, how being authentic helps him defy social stigma, and how he’s grown stronger after every setback in his recovery journey.
Our other guest Nisha returns to talk about gender differences in seeking and receiving help, why finding support is like being in a hardware store, and empowerment as a mental health advocate.
