“Being real with yourself—it may be hard, but it’s great for your health.” — Scott Grace

In this unforgettable episode of Vulnerability Muscle, host Reggie D. Ford sits down with the one-of-a-kind Scott Grace—poet, speaker, musician, and self-described "Spiritual Dr. Seuss." Through soul-stirring songs, radical honesty, and humor that disarms and heals, Scott invites listeners into a transformative dialogue on masculinity, vulnerability, emotional healing, and human connection.

Scott opens up about his journey from selling LSD and hiding behind “rusty walls of pride” to becoming a master of musical storytelling and emotional truth. With songs like “Teach Me How to Love” and spontaneous improvisations that will make you laugh, cry, and think, Scott redefines what it means to be masculine and emotionally whole.

The conversation dives deep into:

  • The intersection of masculinity and vulnerability
  • Why asking for help is a powerful act of courage
  • How he uses music and humor to depolarize politics and spark connection
  • His experience in Mexico and what he learned about peace, community, and presence
  • The healing power of breathwork, mindfulness, and storytelling
  • The journey of writing his book Mindful Masculinity and how it helped him heal his own wounds

Don’t miss Scott’s jaw-dropping live musical freestyle inspired by the episode’s theme: cutting through your own bullsh*t—a raw and beautiful performance you’ll want to replay.

This episode is more than a conversation. It’s an experience.

Listen if you're ready to:

  • Rethink what strength and vulnerability truly mean
  • Laugh and reflect through poetic truth-telling
  • Be inspired to show up more honestly in your life
  • Connect across difference with more compassion
