Is Masculinity Killing Men? | Rob Wang | TEDxTemecula

In this talk, we cover the science of what makes suicide the 10th biggest cause of death among American men, what goes through someone’s mind when they’re deciding whether to live or die, and the very simple solution that can begin to turn that around. A certified charisma coach and entrepreneur who once worked with Fortune 500 brands, Rob Wang seemingly had everything – yet, to him, his life felt empty, and about five years ago the Orange County resident suffered through a period of suicidal depression. After figuring out what was keeping him from seeking help, he successfully navigated that period of his life and now helps other men in similar situations. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
