Featured Guest: Jason Enrique In Part Two of our conversation on grief and gender, we sit down with Jason, a powerful mental health advocate, to take a deeper look at how masculinity influences the way men experience, express, and suppress grief. From early social conditioning to cultural expectations around “strength,” many men are taught that showing sadness, crying, or asking for help is a sign of weakness. Jason shares his own story of navigating grief, mental health struggles, and the journey of unlearning these messages — and what it looks like to grieve with honesty and courage. Together, we explore: * Why men often grieve in silence — and the cost of emotional suppression * The link between unprocessed grief and mental health challenges like depression, anger, or substance use * How masculinity gets in the way of emotional support * Jason’s personal experience with loss and healing * The power of peer support, therapy, and vulnerability * Creating safe spaces for men to talk about grief — without judgment * How to raise emotionally healthy boys in a culture that shames softness * Tools to help men reconnect with their grief — and their humanity This episode is an invitation to challenge the outdated scripts about “how men should grieve” and to make room for a version of masculinity that includes tears, tenderness, and truth--------------------------------------------------------------------------Jason Enrique: @1stclass2ndplacehttps://www.youtube.com/@iamjasonenriqueFollow ushttps://www.tiktok.com/@the.grieving.sistershttps://www.instagram.com/the_grieving_sisters/__________________________________________________________________ #GriefAndGender #MensMentalHealth #MaleGriefMatters #JasonSpeaks #RedefiningMasculinity #MentalHealthForMen #ToxicMasculinity #GriefSupport #MenCryToo #VulnerabilityIsStrength #BreakingTheStigma #EmotionalWellness #MasculinityAndHealing #GrieveOutLoud #MentalHealthAdvocate #thegrievingsisters#1stplace2ndclass
