168. The Power of Vulnerability: Why It's Time for Men to Drop the Masculine Mask


Listen Later

We often associate vulnerability with weakness, especially in men, who are socialized to be stoic and unemotional. But the truth is, vulnerability is not only courageous, but it's also necessary for our mental health and overall well-being.

In this episode, we share our recent appearance on Self Love and Sweat with Lunden Souza, where explore the reasons why men find it hard to be vulnerable, and how society's expectations play a role in this. They discuss the detrimental effects of bottling up emotions and how opening up can lead to deeper connections with others.

We also share practical tips and strategies for embracing vulnerability, such as starting small and seeking out supportive communities. They emphasize the importance of self-compassion and learning to be comfortable with discomfort.

You can expect to come away from this episode with a better understanding of why vulnerability is crucial for men's well-being and practical tools for cultivating it in their own lives. In this episode we discuss:

  • Having vulnerable conversations
  • How our stories are not our own
  • Breaking the chains of neglect
  • Imagining the person you want to become
