The rules of being a man are rough. Be stoic. Be self-reliant. Provide for the family. Don’t show pain. Don’t ask for help. And so on.
The expectations for being a man are virtually impossible to fulfill. Be tough. Don’t feel. Don’t show emotion. And, simultaneously, romantic partners want men to be communicative, sympathetic, emotionally aware, empathetic, a good listener and supportive.
The demands placed on men are in direct conflict with the needs they have as human beings. For example, as a “real man” men are not supposed to feel. And yet, as human beings, men do feel. And when these two ways of being come into conflict, the result is often shame. What is shame? The belief that we are unworthy of love, belonging and connection. And what are we seeing with men in this day and age? Epidemics of drug and alcohol abuse, divorce, loneliness and deaths of despair. So what do we do? Tune in and find out!
About Dr. John’s Guest:
Elysia Buss is an empowerment coach and men’s mindset coach. Originally from Washington State, she travelled across the country over the course of 4 1/2 months as she promoted her two global men’s summits starting October 2020. She began her journey in a space of divine inspiration as she packed up her truck and drove away, not knowing where her travels would take her. Homeless, yet unafraid, she drove across the country three times with purpose and joy in her heart during uncertain times. She landed in Charlottesville, Virginia where she now runs her medical massage practice while also coaching. She strives to empower a billion people as her legacy.
