In the first episode of 2020 and the first episode under the new name, The Obsidian Project, our host Joey talks to Corey Gadzionis of Side by Side mens groups.

Joey and Corey have a chat about their lives as fathers and the roles that they play, mental health amongst the current generation and an emotional story from Corey about why and what drove him to start the mens groups.

Corey's story involves situations creating PTSD from Corey having a friend die in his arms. It is a traumatic story, but one that pushed him to not only become a better man and a better father, but also create a safe space for other men to follow his in his path.

Joey has been attending Corey's sessions from the very beginning and it is an honour to have him as the first guest of 2020.
