As a therapist, I get alot of exposure to different theories of practice relating to mental health and well-being. One such practice is the idea that even when motivation is gone, and your give a d@m* is busted, you CAN still make changes in your life. We love and hope for change that would come from the inside and within ourselves, but when it's simply not there, OUTSIDE change can lead to INSIDE change!

What a deep and insightful episode with my guest and the CEO of The Father Factory, Hassan Daniel. In this episode, Hassan and I discuss the burden so many men carry of childhood hurt, expecially molestation and abuse. We discuss the diffuculties they face when trying to lead their families without looking into thier past for healing. Hassan talks of the hope, possibility, and wholeness that is possible in opening up about the realities men have experienced and that it is indeed OK for men to hurt, to open up those wounds, to cry, to feel, and to then go forth and lead thier families effectively and successfully.
