UM 079: The Masks We Wear As Men

Mask – a covering for all or part of the face, worn as a disguise, or to amuse or terrify other people As men, we all too often put on masks, whether it is as simple as telling everyone that we’re “fine” when we clearly aren’t or putting on a façade for others.  We all too often put on these masks to hide. We are afraid, ashamed, embarrassed, or too proud to admit that we aren’t fine, and the choice to simply hide can prove to be destructive. As men, we need to learn to push past saying we are “fine” and allow ourselves to open up and lean into our band of brothers. In this episode of Untaming Masculinity, Dan and Brad dive into the masks we wear as men and tackle why we do it. They share insight on why learning to take the mask off, while intimidating, helps liberate a man and provides some actionable tips on how to open up, let your guard down, and share what is going on in your life with the men around you.
