On today's episode, I am joined my Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Shane Birkel. Shane focuses his private practice on couples and is a certified Relational Life Therapist. On this episode, Shane leads us through an exploration of male emotional expression. Together, we explore this topic through the lens of patriarchy and the way men are raised, family life, and relationships. 

You can find more from Shane at www.shanebirkel.com, on TikTok and Instagram @Shanebirkel, and you can listen to his podcast , "The Couples Therapist Couch", wherever you listen to podcasts. 

A big thank you to Shane for joining me and sharing his expertise on this subject.
