The patriarchy rewards men for being stoic and disconnected from their feelings, and - sorry to be the drama here - but it's killing them. In this must listen to episode with John Shearer we talk about men's mental health, unpacking how career success and male loneliness are related and why modern parenting can feel like ripping off a band-aid in ways most of us never see coming. John shares from his own personal experience as well what he's noticed about men who go to therapy. Finally, John shares how we can all be a part of raising a new generation of boys who are allowed to feel their full range of emotions and equip them with the skills we all need to be present in our most important relationships.
