    Men Building Friendships: The Path to Brotherhood and Support with Dr. Robert Glover

    Fellas, Today’s episode is my last in a series with Dr. Robert Glover who will be bringing his expertise to FRD Live in Austin, December 4-6th.  This episode dives deep into why Brotherhood is more crucial than ever. We explore: Why Men Are Struggling: The hidden fears that keep men from forming deep bonds, and how modern society makes it easy to retreat into isolation. The Healing Power of Brotherhood: How being around other men—men who hold you accountable, support you, and just be with you—can transform your life. Overcoming Discomfort: The necessity of stepping out of your comfort zone to build genuine connections and how masculine initiation plays a role in this. Practical Steps to Connection: Ways to become the spark in your circle, create meaningful friendships, and build a lasting brotherhood. Why This Matters: Our world often tells men to go it alone, but the truth is, we need each other to become our best selves. This conversation is a wake-up call for men to find or create spaces where they can be vulnerable, strong, and supported by other men.   More About Front Row Dads Connect with us @ FrontRowDad.com & Instagram  Want to hang out with other FRDs in Austin?
