88: Men & Vulnerability: How to Practice Vulnerability in Your Relationship & Why Criticism Hurts


Listen Later

Today I will be discussing why vulnerability can be so challenging men (and all people). In this episode, I answer a question from a man who is struggling to be vulnerable with his wife and feels defeated and angry by her criticisms of him. In this episode, we will learn about how society and culture impacts male vulnerability and how women can often have unrealistic expectations of men. This episode is about honoring the male experience and we’ll discuss how to ask your partner to honor your feelings. I also discuss how women (who are in romantic partnerships with men) can begin looking at their own patterns around men and their expectations of men in relationships.
