Episode-07

Men must be strong and "man up", or at least that’s what the overwhelming echo of society wants us all to believe. But to men facing significant misfortunes, traumas and heartache, a culture promoting strength in the realm of emotions is disappointing and far from helpful, to say the least. In this episode of The Mindful Corner Podcast, host Dr. Erika Velez speaks to her first-ever male guest, Victor, husband and soon-to-be father of three, about what it means to be a failure and the value that failing can have in our lives. He shares his account of struggle and the lessons he’s learned about himself and his life after surrendering to external preoccupations he was previously fixated on.   When you said you gave up, it sounded like you surrendered. It’s then that God, the universe, or whatever higher power you believe in, leads us toward answering ‘What am I really here for?’”-- Dr. Velez If you enjoyed this episode, please consider leaving an honest rating and review.
