Building Men

Do you ever ponder what it means to be a man in today's society? Does the concept of reshaping the mindsets of young men to create a positive societal impact intrigue you?

Join us on this enlightening journey as we sit with Eric Patton, a relationship coach, and discuss the power of clothing, the importance of mentorship, and the beauty of self-reflection. We get raw, we get real, and we dive into the trenches of childhood trauma, the challenges of being vulnerable, and the significance of connection in our lives.

Our past shapes us, and sometimes, it shakes us.

We're opening up about our personal experiences, our love for sports, and the life-altering moments that reshaped our worldviews. From the tragic loss of a best friend to a miraculous college scholarship, our journey is one of resilience, determination, and the relentless pursuit of purpose. We explore the complexities of communication between men and women, the necessity of understanding and addressing past traumas, and the vital role of empathy and compassion in difficult conversations.

Let's get personal, shall we? We're taking a deep dive with our guest, Eric Patton, into the world of relationships. We talk about small actions that create significant impacts, the struggle to balance the "nice guy" and the "bad boy" persona, and the art of effective communication in relationships. Eric shares his own journey and offers valuable insights on how to build strong partnerships. Join us, and let's redefine the narrative together.

A Real Conversation About the State of Men with George @theTinmen- Building Men Podcast ep.#194

Are you ready to challenge societal norms and embark on a journey of personal growth? Our latest episode of Building Men provides an avenue to do just that as we warmly welcome George, the enigmatic creator of "The Tin Men" Instagram page. His insights and perspectives on reshaping mindsets and addressing uncomfortable subjects like gender equality and men's mental health are as thought-provoking as they are inspiring. George's own story, his struggle with stereotypes, and his quest to redefine masculinity will resonate with many of us grappling with these issues.

We shift gears to tackle the critical issue of boys' education and the disturbing trend of boys falling behind. Unpacking the stereotypes associated with masculinity, we delve deeper into the worrying statistics that highlight boys being classified into special services at alarming rates. We also touch upon the deprivation of role models for boys and the damaging narrative that often portrays fathers negatively. The discussion reveals the sobering truth of legal disadvantages fathers face and the negative impact it has on boys' development.

On a more solemn note, we broach the topic of domestic violence and the overlooked impact on men. We discuss police brutality and its disproportionate fallout on Black men before turning our attention to the high suicide rates among boys. Our conversation emphasizes the necessity to break down barriers and promote open discussions about men's mental health. We conclude with a powerful dialogue on non-violent discipline in raising children and the transformative power of community support. Join us, and George, in this enlightening and transformative conversation.
