To be Frank

Phil Barker is the author of The Revolution of Man, a manifesto for a new masculinity, a manhood that is positive, healthy and safe.

As a regular commentator and columnist on men’s issues, he came to see the “performance of being a man, from the moment we open our eyes to our last breath, is damaging us and those around us.”

Phil found the suicide and domestic violence statistics he encountered, as he wrote, so horrific he began a discovery of a better masculinity that eventually became The Revolution of Man.

He writes and speaks on almost every element of masculinity – from suicide to domestic violence, porn to parenting, food to fatherhood, sex, relationships, our bodies … and everything in between.

A lot of speculation and a hell of a lot of comments on media sites has proven that haters think they know exactly who Denim Cooke is. Following advice, Con never commented. She believes it's time to tell the story, you might not like it, and you might find it a complex story to listen to. 

But it's their story, it's not pretty, it's not ideal, but its love and above all, that's life.

Doctor Lucy Hone is a leading resilience expert. I first came across her when her audience was left silenced at a TED talk in Aukland. She talks openly about surviving her own unthinkable pain and how to not just cope with loss but live a life worth living. A truly remarkable that I will forever recommend anyone who wants to choose life, after loss.
