This episode is an important conversation between two men: It’s about men showing their emotions, being vulnerable, working on their mental health and most importantly being able to cry. Festus talks with Jordan aka Dxtr about his project “How Men Cry”, which aims to feature 1000 different men who share moments of when they cried. It also opens up the conversation about men and mental health.

Dxtr shares his own struggles from dealing with suicidal thoughts, deep depression and being on the verge of snapping. Through therapy and a lot of inner work he is rebuilding his relationship to his younger self as he realized how many things are deeply rooted in his upbringing. He now champions showing emotions and believes that men displaying crying early and often will finally make it acceptable in society and remove the stigma attached to it.

You can follow Dxtr on Instagram and read all How Men Cry stories on the movement’s Instagram.
