    Role of educators and its impact on boys

    In this powerful episode of Boys Don’t Cry, I sit down with a former teacher, principal and an administrator (and an Influencer in her own right) to explore the often-overlooked emotional influence educators have on boys during their formative years. From classroom discipline to hallway conversations, we unpack how school environments either reinforce emotional suppression or create space for vulnerability and growth. Whether you’re a parent, teacher, coach, or community leader, get ready to be challenged to rethink what it means to raise emotionally healthy boys—and how educators are uniquely positioned to be the architects of that transformation. 🔔 Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe if this helped you or someone you love.

As I venture out to start conversation around Men's Mental Health, I start with this all important question for in case of an abusive male, whose finger is being used, who loads the gun and whose shoulder is being used to fire the shots...
