We begin our refreshed season with a powerful conversation about how society suppresses the emotional lives of boys. What does it mean to “emasculate” a child, and what are the lifelong consequences of silencing sensitivity in young men? In this deeply reflective episode, Lora Tia unpacks how culture and parenting contribute to a crisis of identity for the modern male child. With compassion and clarity, she offers a different vision where boys are allowed to be whole, soft, expressive, and powerful. If you’re a parent, teacher, or simply someone healing from this dynamic yourself, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
