Welcome. I'm Connor Beaton, and today we're going to talk about depression. This is a topic that I've had a lot of people reach out about over the past few years.

And it's something that I haven't really actually covered. I think I've talked about it here and there, but I've never actually addressed it directly.

And so today on the show,

two different types of depression that I see, especially in a lot of men, but also in a lot of women.

And those two types are overt depression and covert depression.

And I share some of the signs of each of them and how you can kind of see them and how you can
