In this episode, we explore the delicate balance of raising sons through both the mother’s and father’s perspectives. We talk about how a mother’s instinct to shelter and protect can, at times, unintentionally block a boy’s transition into manhood, and how the father’s role in shaping his son’s strength and identity is just as vital. Together, we unpack the fears that fuel this imbalance — including the mother’s fear of the father’s wounds and the father’s responsibility to rise above them. We also reflect on what boys learn as they grow within this dynamic, and the ripple effect it has when they become men. This conversation is an invitation to healing, balance, and working together as parents to raise sons who grow into strong, compassionate men.
