In this interview with Spencer Rogers, scientist, silversmith, and artist, we talk passionately about what toxic masculinity looks like, how it affects the men and boys in society, and dismantling those beliefs or characteristics. Spencer speaks from his own experience of not fitting the status quo of manliness and how that has affected his self esteem and identity. He also suffers with mental health challenges and discusses the stigmas and shame around men having feelings. He answers questions regarding raising boys, starting conversations about this topic, and holding compassion for others unlearning the toxic form of masculinity.
Listen in to this vulnerable, powerful conversation I had with Spencer and share it with your friends!!
