Robert Kandell is back on the show and we are honing in big time on the topic of MEN. Not in like the Salt N Pepa, “Girls, what’s my weakness?! MEN!” way, but rather, the “what’s going on for men right now?” way. I appreciated this conversation a lot because while we focus mainly on the issues effecting women on this show, most of us have men in our lives that we really care about and have no desire to shut out, or shut down. Nor are we interested in dismissing men in general. It’s just kind of hard to hold them in as much compassion sometimes, especially right now in 2018 as this episode is going live … so Rob and I discussed why that is and how we can ALL do better together.
We got into the history of patriarchy, what exactly toxic masculinity is, male vulnerability, when and why people actually change, the different ways men and women feel validated, cultivating self esteem, three parts to great communication and more.
This is a great episode to share with the men in your life and use as a conversation starter for connection and understanding, enjoy and share!
