Episode 182: Men’s Helpline – Daniel Landau and Steven Miller, MS
Daniel Landau is the founder and executive director of Men’s Helpline, moderator of the MenTalk virtual peer support group, and host of the MenTalk podcast. A seasoned fundraiser and sales leader, Daniel has spent his career designing and implementing successful development and marketing strategies for mission-driven non-profits. Having experienced a pregnancy loss firsthand while he and his wife underwent IVF, Daniel created Men’s Helpline to help fill the critical gap in resources geared toward supporting men as they navigate infertility and pregnancy loss.
Steven J. Miller, a repeat guest on the podcast, obtained his Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees in Psychology at Northern Michigan University. He is currently in the part-time MSW program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Steven is an advocate for discussion among social workers about the impact of infertility on one’s mental health. Steven and his wife had struggled with infertility before being successful using In Vitro Fertilization, resulting in now almost five-year-old twin boys. Steven started his own podcast called MILES highlighting the male experience of infertility and family building. He joined Men’s Helpline as a board member in 2023. Men’s Helpline is a nonprofit whose mission is to provide emotional support to all men who struggle with miscarriage, and infertility. After his MSW, Steven plans to become a LCSW and specialize in Reproductive Mental Health and continue work with the nonprofit.
