Embracing Vulnerability

In this episode of Real Men Feel, host Andy Grant speaks with Dawud Wallace, a speaker, entrepreneur, and advocate for emotional wellness rather than suppressing them, and advocates for creating safe spaces for men to share and support one another, especially among Black men. They discuss themes such as caregiving, grief, mental health, and masculinity. Dawud shares his personal experiences of caring for his sick mother from a young age, dealing with grief, and the importance of vulnerability.

They explore the societal 'man box' that restricts men's emotional expressions and how Black men face even tighter constraints. Dawud emphasizes that true strength lies in facing and understanding one's emotions, not suppressing them, and advocates for creating safe spaces for men to share and support each other.

They also touch on the importance of accountability, the value of fun and joy, and how to break free from societal expectations. Dawud's book, 'When a Brother Needs a Friend Too,' serves as a guide for those navigating similar challenges.
