Masculinity sometimes has a way of getting a bum wrap for not caring or not being emotionally connected. For many men survival has been in learning how to shut up, keep your head down, and moving forward. More often than not, intimate relationships such as marriage, friendship, and being a father, have a way of exposing undeveloped emotional tools and lack of self-awareness. But does it really mean that men just don’t care?

Nathan opens up about his life of logic, the judgment he held towards emotions, and the painful reality of why he couldn’t access emotions that he inherited from his childhood.
