#406: Why Masculinity Needs Vulnerability with Samir Mourani

Join a powerful conversation with Samir Mourani, entrepreneur and host of the men's mental health podcast Gents Talk, as we explore the evolving dynamics of modern masculinity and emotional expression. Samir opens up about his personal journey through crisis and the challenges men face in articulating their emotions, particularly in a culture that often equates vulnerability with weakness. Together, we discuss the societal pressures that stifle emotional growth, the impact of male role models, and the troubling rise of figures who capitalize on men feeling lost or disconnected while bypassing deeper emotional work. Samir shares his mission to create spaces where men can openly discuss their mental health, encouraging healthy dialogues that pave the way for emotional intelligence and genuine connection. Samir Mourani is an entrepreneur/digital creator, speaker (TEDx), host/producer of Gent's Talk, a men's mental health and wellness podcast in the top 5% globally (per Spotify) and a partnership onboard Air Canada & the Editor of Gent's Post, a men's lifestyle publication.   —Samir’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/samirmourani  —Samir’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/samir-mourani-53826057/  —Samir’s TEDx Talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tQSvX6lLZk&ab_channel=TEDxTalks  —Samir’s Podcast Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1QyZB4hdjJrqiealqW0tJy  —Samir’s Podcast YT: https://www.youtube.com/c/GentsPost  —Samir’s Podcast Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/sa/podcast/gents-talk/id1660149891  If you want to dive deeper into Mark’s content, search through every episode, find specific topics we’ve covered, and ask him questions, go to his Dexa page: https://dexa.ai/markgroves Themes: Men's Mental Health, Modern Masculinity, Emotional Expression for Men, Breaking Masculinity Stereotypes, Vulnerability in Men, Healthy Masculinity, Men and Emotional Intelligence, Mental Health for Men, Masculinity and Mental Health Awareness, Gents Talk Podcast, Samir Mourani, Mark Groves, Men’s Emotional Growth, Crisis and Emotional Healing for Men, Building Emotional Connections in Men This episode is sponsored by Cozy Earth: Use code MARK for 40% off sitewide at http://www.cozyearth.com Contact us at podcast@markgroves.com for sponsor product support, questions, comments, or just to say hello!
