Why Men Are Afraid To Feel | Heal Thy Self w Owen Marcus #349

Why do so many men struggle with emotional connection, despite trying their best? In this powerful conversation with men's work pioneer Owen Marcus, we uncover the missing piece in men's mental health - the body-based approach that's transforming lives. Discover why traditional "talk therapy" often falls short, how women can actually support their partners' growth, and the surprising truth about men's capacity for emotional depth. #wellness #mentalhealth #growth MELD www.MELD.community www.MELD.community/prime === Thank You To Our Sponsors!
