This isn’t just another podcast episode. It’s an unmasking.
Formerly known as Probably Important, we’re now Forged Youth: Legacy Within—a space where transformation isn’t just talked about, it’s lived. In this episode, Mariel sits down with coach, retreat leader, and modern alchemist Alex Terranova to explore the raw terrain of what it means to be a man in emotional evolution.
Alex talks candidly about the grief of infertility, the unexpected healing found in men’s retreats, and what happens when we stop avoiding pain and finally sit in the fire. It’s a conversation that swirls with authenticity, courage, and the kind of wisdom that doesn’t come from textbooks—but from living through the things that almost broke you.
🔹 What made a retreat of 14 men burst into collective tears
🔹 The untold cost of toxic stoicism in men’s lives
🔹 How infertility cracked open something deeper
🔹 Reframing anger and sadness as signals—not weaknesses
🔹 Why being “too much” is actually the beginning of healing
Whether you’re someone who’s carried the weight of silence, or someone who loves someone who has—this episode is your invitation to feel, to see, to heal.
