On Episode 164 of You, Me, Empathy, Mark Pagán and I explore a longing we’re feeling for adventure and connection, the pressure valve emotional release we need to switch on more often, cultural identity and the question of where we fit it, and removing the stigma around fear and shame for men through the gentle, fastidious excavation of masculinity.
SUPPORT NŌN:
You, Me, Empathy
On You, Me, Empathy, we explore the struggles, the triumphs, the brights and the darks we face as humans trying to be human on this wondrous and overwhelming pale blue dot.
You, Me, Empathy was created so that we can be witness to our collective humanity through the lens of empathy, vulnerability, and emotional curiosity. We aim to destigmatize mental health, lead fiercely with our hearts, feel our feelings without shame and judgment, and share our courageous stories so that others may feel less alone and more connected as feely humans.
You, Me, Empathy is a brave place designed to inspire the beauty in each of us, because each of us, in all of our kaleidoscopic parts, makes up a magical whole that deserves to be seen.
