Listen "Men, Emotions, and the Stereotypes We Break"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textHave you ever felt confined by the traditional roles society has scripted for you? My guest, Emmanuel Bright-Effiong stylised as Emmagination, walks us through this very feeling, as he shares his quest to step away from being a husband, a father, and a provider, to explore alternative identities. Together, we navigate the labyrinth of masculinity, societal pressures, and the desire to shatter expectations, providing a fresh perspective on the power of social experiments in expanding our understanding of this complex world.Men's mental health is an area that often goes unnoticed, brushed under the carpet of societal norms that discourage emotional openness. Imagine the liberation if we could change this narrative if we celebrated International Men's Day with as much enthusiasm as we do for Women's Day! We journey through this topic, shedding light on men's mental health, and the urgent need for increased awareness and support. We also challenge the clichéd notions of men as logical beings and women as emotional ones, advocating for emotional expression without fear of judgment and understanding the people around us as individuals, not mere gender stereotypes.Our exploration doesn't stop at societal norms and mental health. We dive into the world of love languages and their significant role in parenting, particularly for boys. Be it the concept of positive masculinity or the importance of liberating men from the shackles of societal expectations, our conversation is bound to leave you pondering. We also delve into the importance of mindfulness, self-love, and open communication in relationships, offering listeners a comprehensive understanding of the complexity of gender expectations. Join us on this enlightening journey as we redefine masculinity because it's time for a change.Find Emmanuel on socials as @emmaginationclotheium Support the showFollow me Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/tunmise.kukuInstagram : https://www.instagram.com/tunmiseokuku/ https://www.instagram.com/bhmcoaching/LinkedIn : https://www.linkedin.com/in/tunmise-oladapo-kuku-8a2626b/Get Living Mindfully: A Journey to Being https://blackhemages.com/living-mindfully/Website: https://blackhemages.com/b45eeaafa11188b421daa26f6eb85da5596dbf11Love Yourself; Love Your Neighbour; Love Your Country: Above all of these Love God He's the essence of Your Being.#tdk
