075: How to take the leap in to self-care and peace – Troy Love

Men, in general, struggle with self-care. Not talking about the brushing teeth, taking showers, eating right, etc. Talking about the deeper stuff. Working with their emotions. Allowing vulnerability to show up. Admitting they don't have the answers. All of these things are an assault on our masculine ego...so to speak.

So riddle me this grasshopper? What if men, on a daily basis, practiced deep levels of self-care, what might the world be like? Troy L Love, provides us his insights not only from a professional licensed therapist perspective, but also his perspective as a husband, father, and fellow human being. He also reminds us all that we are not alone, even when we might feel like it.
