In this deeply authentic conversation, our men's panel explores why men struggle to express emotions and build meaningful relationships. We examine how men often prioritize respect over love and unpack the challenging journey toward vulnerability and trust.
• Men typically value respect over love in relationships, which can lead to misunderstandings with partners
• Past hurts and betrayals make many men hesitant to open up emotionally, fearing vulnerability will be weaponized against them
• Some men feel inadequate in relationships due to childhood abandonment or father wounds
• Building deep male friendships requires intentionality, clear boundaries, and shared values
• Learning to listen without defensiveness is crucial for healing relationships
• The core lie many men believe is "I am not enough," which affects all their relationships
We encourage you to take action by reaching out to other men in your community. Start or join a small group where you can have these conversations regularly - this monthly podcast is meant to inspire local, ongoing brotherhood.
