We all see how the manosphere profits off the loneliness, rage and misogyny of young men. There are 100 coaches a day you can scroll past telling a man how he can be a true "alpha dude bro". ICK. Profiting off pain and rage with no intention of actually helping.
But there are men who are actually trying to help men heal, help them learn to build community and develop connection- what does that look like? What are those coaches seeing in men that needs to change? I brought in the coaches from the Delta to talk about exactly that. I have personal experience with them cause I've watched them transform my brothers life.
Everybody in our world is hurting, we live in such an unnatural disconnected society. Can men heal enough that women can feel safe? Can there be common ground But what about the men who haven't gone to the manosphere but don't know where to go? Who actually want to do better and realize that something is missing? The world doesn't change until we do.

Trying out posting yesterday's news here- if a morning recap helps you stay informed but also gives you a break from the social media cycle, here to help

I firmly believe that the United States will only be as progressive as the south is.
Tennessee is not as red as you think. The history of gerrymandering, the exploitation of the south, the control of super red majorities would have you believe that these "super red states" are a lost cause, they aren't.
In this episode we will cover some of the suprising history of Tennesee as a state of change, and the hope for a better future with the candidate for congress in Tennessee district 9- Justin Pearson.
