When I was growing up, I was told not to.
Show emotion. I was told not to cry. I was told to toughen up at all times.
And that was a.
Conditioning in society.
It only left me.
Feeling more wounded because it felt like something was always wrong with me.
And until I learned to process emotions.
In a healthy.
And empowering way, that's when I learned that I had more.
Peace inside of me. It's one of the reasons why I created the book the Mask of Masculinity, which is teaching.
Men how to truly.
Step into their highest, most.
Vulnerable and.
Authentic selves by.
Heal the wounds of.
The past so we don't hurt.
People in.
Our path.
