There are many preconceptions about what it is to be a man in the modern world.
A provider, strong, in control of their emotions.
But are these traits healthy and what does it mean if you don’t conform to these things?
In this episode I am joined by my good friends Tom Paine and Steve Ware. We explore these questions and more about what life is like for a man. We share our own fears and experiences with anxiety, loss of purpose and how we can be more than what the world expects a man to be.
This episode is raw and open from all 3 of us, something we need more of from the men in this world.
“It’s acknowledging that emotions are ok to feel, but it’s doing something about it. That’s the key.” – Tom Paine
