If you are a man this is an episode you cannot miss, because it is dedicated to us.
We usually see pain, vulnerability and anger as a negative, but what happens when we use it to heal? Today's guest is an author who has wisely put his knowledge into books to help others and he will help us answer the previous question, I am talking about the true master; Robert Masters. We dived into intimacy, grief, sex and wounds; we also talked about the divisions we have as a country, why vulnerability is allowed in man, and why unexpressing our grief is so destructive.
