Understanding Men and Their Trauma with Dr. Gabor Maté
The Man Enough Podcast
Are You Enough?
When was the last time that you did not feel enough? You have today morning. I've been thinking about that question because a good friend of mine was a great Thomas Baptist and pioneer,. Peter Levine, said to me about a year ago. And then two weeks ago, it struck me that there's no answer to that question. The answer is who's asking? Who's asking? That's the answer.
Men aren’t toxic, they’re traumatized. Renowned physician, author and speaker Dr. Gabor Maté talks about internalized rage, our toxic world culture, childhood trauma and reframing our approach to mental illness. With over 40 years of clinical experience and personal development, Maté takes us to school on our misconceptions about the traumas and “toxicity” within us as he gently reminds us that we are much more connected than we are led to believe.
