This week, we’re joined by Brian Stokes (@brianlamarstokes) — therapist, influencer, and father of three girls — for an honest, unfiltered conversation about what it really means to be a man, partner, and father today.

Brian opens up about the emotional weight men carry, why so many avoid therapy, and how becoming a dad changed his marriage. We dive into the unspoken side of fatherhood, including postpartum struggles in men, rebuilding connection after kids, and how to show up better for yourself and your family.
