In this episode we dive deep into the topic of safe spaces and support systems. We explore the journey of finding, defining, and utilizing your support system to navigate life's challenges.

For far too long, the stigma surrounding masculinity has pressured men to bear their burdens alone, to be strong without vulnerability. But the truth is, we all need support, especially during difficult times.

Join us as we shatter the myth of self-sufficiency and embrace the idea that leaning on our support system is a strength, not a weakness. From emotional support to practical assistance, we uncover the various forms that support can take and how they can lighten the weight of our struggles.

In this episode, Dennis and Soroosh share their unique perspectives on the journey to finding and defining their support systems. They offer insights and practical advice on how to identify these safe spaces, nurturing relationships that provide genuine care and understanding.

You don't have to carry your burdens alone. Tune in and discover how to cultivate your support system, creating an environment where you can open up, be vulnerable, and find the strength to face life's challenges together. You are not alone.

This episode is a thought-provoking guide to help you build and harness the power of your support system.
