Send us a textWelcome to episode 7!Can we redefine what it means to be a man, particularly in times of grief? That's the big question we tackle in our latest episode, joined by the insightful Scott Jensen. In a culture that too often equates masculinity with stoicism, we explore the deep, hidden emotions that men grapple with, specifically in the context of early miscarriage—a poignant loss that society doesn't often pause enough to acknowledge. As we traverse the less-charted territory of men's grief, we highlight parts of our respective personal journeys, shedding light on the nuances of their emotional roller coaster, and the disconnect many men feel when societal expectations clash with their reality. We discuss the necessity of having supportive environments in which men can safely express their feelings without fear of judgement. We also delve into how societal norms about masculinity can create barriers to emotional expression, and the urgent need for these constructs to be redefined.In the final part of our discussion, we confront the pervasive issue of toxic masculinity, and its detrimental impact on men’s relationships and emotional wellbeing. Using our own experiences as a compass, we lay bare the potential for connection that lies in the power of vulnerability, and the crucial role authenticity plays in fostering these connections. In a world that's slowly becoming more open to conversations about mental health, our hope is that this episode sparks more dialogues about men's grief and the need to create safe spaces for these conversations.Thank you for tuning  in to find solace, gain understanding, and embark on your healing journey with us!Sincerely,Kelly & ChrisFollow on IG @themiscarriagedadEmail [email protected] sure you subscribe!Write us a review!
