Show notes:

In this conversation we cover:

* How to stop trying to be a “real man” and be the good man you likely already are

* The benefits that come to men who share household responsibilities

* Shifting from adversarial to win-win relationships so men and women get more of their desires and needs met

* The importance of moving forward in a way that men’s vulnerability is not used against them

* The generational change we are in the midst of: Moving beyond the Don Draper era (without blame or attack)
