    You Might Also Like: Mind If We Talk?

    Introducing How We Can Help Men Open Up from Mind If We Talk?. Follow the show: Mind If We Talk? Many men grow up receiving the same messages: be strong, stay tough, don’t show too much emotion. But what actually happens when vulnerability, creativity, or sensitivity start to feel like things that need to be hidden? In this episode, host and therapist Sreela Roy-Greene sits down with author and podcast host Cory Allen, as well as writer and poet James McCrae for a deeply personal conversation about masculinity, emotional suppression, and learning how to reconnect with themselves. As a child, James felt he had to hide his love of poetry, while Cory was raised by a father he calls a “Texas Tony Soprano.” Together with Sreela, they each explore how vulnerability ultimately became a path toward deeper connection and understanding their childhood traumas. Later in the episode, BetterHelp therapist David Yadush joins Sreela to unpack the psychology behind emotional literacy, affect labeling, and why so many men struggle to express what they’re feeling. 00:00 The Challenge of Emotional Expression for Men 01:42 Cory Allen on Childhood, Safety, and Emotional Development 05:35 Why Vulnerability Feels Risky 10:16 Masculinity, Trauma, and Cultural Expectations 12:34 A Practical Framework for Understanding Emotions 16:51 Emotional Armor and Its Impact on Relationships 20:00 Rethinking Strength and Healthy Masculinity 24:42 How Vulnerability Creates Connection 30:57 What Cory and James Wish You Knew About Emotional Expression 32:45 Why Many Men Struggle to Express Their Feelings 33:31 Expert Perspective: Shame, Self-Protection, and Emotional Openness 40:53 Movement, Mental Health, and Emotional Processing 44:54 Recognizing Emotional Safety in Relationships 54:07 Closing Reflections and Key Takeaways Hosted on Acast.
