On this episode of #mensexpleasure, I chat with Harvey Laguerre. Harvey is a 49 year old, stay-at-home dad of 4. The emergence of Covid-19 led to the creation of a relationship podcast with his wife, called Love is Black. The success of that podcast emboldened him to create his own. Men Are The P.R.I.Z.E. Podcast is the result of years of learning what it means to be a man in the world today. The definition of masculinity has changed drastically and not for the better. Attributes that were once manly, are now toxic. What has not changed is the lack of safe spaces for men to express their emotions. Being a vulnerable man is not celebrated like it should be. This podcast is that safe space for men to open up and reveal their inner monologue. This podcast is the what, where, when, why and how of manhood. Key points: - Harvey introduces himself - Damaging stereotypes impact black men's lives - Need for safe spaces to express vulnerability - Self-accountability leads to empowerment and growth - High suicide rates, isolation during holidays - Stereotypes affect black boys' and teens' identity - Societal pressure limits emotional expression in men - Importance of culturally relatable therapists and coaches Relevant links: Harvey’s website: www.HarveyLaguerre.com
