Stripping the Masks of Masculinity & Living Vulnerably From The Heart with The Naked Professor

In Episode 17 brought to you by The Happiness Planner I'm popping my podcast cherry and interviewing the very first man to come on the show - my friend Ben Bidwell, also known as THE NAKED PROFESSOR. Ben is a life coach, writer, speaker and blogger whose passion lies in redefining what it means to be masculine, helping people to live more vulnerably and stripping away the masks we wear at the cost of our authenticity. Ben and I speak about what it really means to "be a man", how our need for acceptance and external validation kills our connection and true love, and why so many men are conditioned and conformed to be emotionally repressed, depressed and stressed. It turns out that there IS way more to life and it has nothing to do with ticking boxes, looking cool, avoiding our emotions and playing games - but EVERYTHING to do with vulnerability, baring our souls and living our truth.
