    Raising Boys and Redefining Toxic Masculinity and how it impacts Friendships and Emotional Health

    Society wants us to raise our boys to be “tough” but boys are more complex and as parents we need to help them navigate the cultural pressures and protect their emotional well-being. We need to understand the impact of feeling inadequate and the importance of fostering empathy towards boys during their development. This week, I welcome Ruth Whippman, an author, essayist and cultural critic, to discuss how we can support boys in embracing their emotions and navigating their growth. She joins me to discuss:  How boys face indirect societal pressures that discourage emotional expression Why feelings of inadequacy regarding masculinity can trigger harmful behaviors, including violence. The need to recognize boys’ struggles and foster a positive narrative that empowers them. To connect with Ruth Whippman follow her on Instagram @ruthwhippman and Substack @ruthwhippman.
