OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
In this episode I bring on Dr. Daniel Ellenberg, who has led men's groups for over forty years and was named Practitioner of the Year by the American Psychological Association's own society for the psychology of men, to name the mistake he sees men keep making generation after generation. We get into precarious manhood, why vulnerability still reads as weakness, why so many men insist on doing everything alone, and what actually happens in a room once a man stops hiding the parts of himself he's ashamed of.
In this episode I talk with Dr. Daniel Ellenberg. He has directed men's groups for more than forty years and earned the Practitioner of the Year award from the American Psychological Association's division for the psychology of men. He names the mistake he sees men keep making generation after generation, and then we explore the idea of precarious manhood and why vulnerability continues to be seen as a weakness. We also discuss why many men attempt to manage all their problems alone and what happens when a man stops hiding the parts of himself that cause him shame.
