This podcast issues a bold challenge to parents raising boys: reject the outdated model of toughness and dominance and instead teach empathy, curiosity, and vulnerability. These traits are the keys to raising boys who can thrive in a world that values humanity over control. Mark Greene warns of the dangers of "man box" culture, where boys are pressured to suppress emotions and assert power. But with just one authentic, transformative relationship, parents can break this cycle, empowering their sons to redefine masculinity and embrace their full humanity.

Jenna is joined by Author, Activist, and Facilitator, Mark Greene who has spent decades asking these challenging questions and finding new ways to help support our boys and ourselves.
