I’m so excited to share this wisdom packed episode, even with some audio glitches towards the end, this is still one of my favorite conversations!

What does a man have to do in order to feel the freedom to let his guard down? What threshold of success does he have to cross before he’s allowed to be vulnerable? Is there ever a time where its appropriate to be weak?

He shares his vision for what healthy masculinity looks like– and we couldn’t be more aligned. To summarize it: The ability to DO all the things should include the ability to FEEL them too.
