We’re diving into men’s mental health and how the “superhero complex” impacts the way men see themselves. We’ll explore how fictional icons grapple with trauma, masculinity, and the burden of always having to be strong.
Joining us are Adhim DeVeaux (creator of the comic, "The Unforgiving Scruff") and Dr. Keith Edwards (author of "Unmasking Toward Authentic Masculinity") for profound conversations on men’s mental health and unmasking. This episode breaks down the myths about what it means to be a man. Because true strength isn’t about suppressing pain—it’s about facing it.
