Retired MMA/ UFC fighter Mike Guymon, known as, the Joker, is an open book. He is no stranger to pain and hardship. Almost 20 years ago he attempted to take his life and was saved by local law enforcement.

The TBI and concussion aftermath sneak their way in to his mind and body as he navigates retirement. After experiencing tremors he began a journey of experimental treatments, starting with Ibogaine and investigating BUFO for relief of his symptoms. He is currently in works to film a documentary on the experiences.

Mike sits with us to discuss how men can better manage depression, stress and suicidal thoughts, and with that creating supportive spaces where honesty about these things are allowed.
