If Your Life Sucks, It's Your Fault, Change It

Masculinity, in and of itself, is not toxic; it is a complex and multifaceted aspect of identity. However, men are undeniably influenced by the role models they look up to while growing up. If they choose toxic individuals as mentors, they may inadvertently follow a path of toxicity. The key to positive masculinity lies in fostering purpose and a sense of meaning in one's life. When men have a clear sense of purpose, they are more likely to make choices that align with their values and ideals, regardless of societal expectations. Ultimately, we have the agency to shape our destiny and the life we want to live by selecting mentors and role models who embody the virtues and values we wish to emulate. Join Wilk and Nico Lagan in their discussion that starts with "toxic masculinity" but goes into so much more. You may just come away realizing, "if your life sucks, it's your fault, change it."
