This week we talk with actor and author Justin Baldoni about his new book Man Enough: Undefining My Masculinity. We discuss the origins of limiting masculine stereotypes, the generational trauma around suppressing emotions that men inherit, and why embracing vulnerability is true strength. Justin shares his personal journey questioning the man box and advocates for redefining old-fashioned ideas of masculinity that often leave men feeling inadequate. We discuss practical ways men can open up and reconnect to their emotions and full humanity without feeling “unmanly.”

Bulleted list of 10 topics discussed:

  • Struggling to fit into society's rigid male gender roles
  • Absorbing harmful messaging about masculinity from a young age
  • The costs of men disconnecting from their emotions
  • Learning to embrace vulnerability as a non-traditional strength
  • Generational trauma around masculinity and not expressing feelings
  • Toxic vs healthy masculine behaviors and mindsets
  • Women's conflicting perceptions of masculinity
  • Becoming who we are, not who society expects
  • Moving from shame to self-acceptance
  • Expanding narrow definitions of masculinity
