What does real inclusion look like in men’s work? In this episode, Boysen Hodgson welcomes Art Patterson, a leader, elder, and fierce advocate for the Barrier Free Movement in the ManKind Project. Living with cerebral palsy, Art has spent over 25 years in MKP — breaking barriers, challenging assumptions, and becoming the one of the first differently-abled men to walk the leadership path in our community.

Together, Art and Boysen dive into powerful topics: disability fragility, vulnerability, spiritual calling, and the deep freedom that comes from being truly seen and accepted. Art speaks from the heart about what it means to be in relationship beyond fear, how “oops” moments are part of the growth, and why men with all kinds of abilities deserve a seat at the table — and a voice in the circle.

This conversation is a must-listen for anyone passionate about equity, leadership, and creating space where every man belongs.
