This is another essential conversation that will transform lives. Carvens Lissaint and Dr. Maliek Blade join for a revealing discussion about manhood, connection, vulnerability and life-giving friendship. We ask the question, do we as men really know how to connect? Do we know how to effectively express, process and manage our emotions? In this episode, we reflect on what it means to be in deep relationship, and why so many of us avoid it as men. We delve into the tension that many men experience between “what you do” and “who you are.” You’ll hear honest personal stories, as we lean into the mixed bag that comes with success, accolades and notoriety. We don’t shy away from talking about the pain of isolation, why it’s so easy to slip into, and how to effectively move into the joy that comes from being in authentic community. If you’re a man or you care about the men in your life, this episode is for you!
