Give Yourself Some Leeway: Burnout Recovery for High Achievers#128 Eugene Lee: How We Beat Burnout Through Liberated Masculinity
For generations, men have been conditioned to adhere to a narrow definition of masculinity.
Traits like emotional stoicism, dominance, competitiveness, and self-reliance have been emphasized, creating a culture where men feel pressured to suppress their emotions and constantly strive for control and success.
This traditional or confined mindset is increasingly being recognized as detrimental to mental & emotional wellbeing
Now it’s time for a shift.

The alarming statistic that globally, on average, one man dies by suicide every minute of every day.
How often we underscore the urgent need for increased awareness, mental health support, and the destigmatization of seeking help.
Raising awareness for Men's Health is a cause close to my heart, because we often don't speak up and ask for help when we need it most?

- What is the self narrative that keeps men silent?

The Evolved Caveman Podcast w/ Dr. John SchinnererReinventing Masculinity For Greater HappinessIn a recent FiveThirtyEight poll, 60 percent of men surveyed said society puts pressure on men to behave in a way that is unhealthy or bad.
