About this Episode:After a 2 week break, we're back again! This episode I am joined with one of my soul friends (Johnny Cole). Every conversation I've had with Johnny always hits beyond the surface, and feels filling and life-giving.

More about Johnny!Johnny is "healing me...

As we are socialized into 'rigid' definitions of masculinity and manhood, we realized that the pathways...
"We are not resting to recharge so we can do more. We are simply resting because it is our divine and human right." -Tricia Hersey (@TheNapMinistry) As some of you may have noticed there was no episode last week!

In this episode I talk about the importance of rest, and how patriar...
In this episode I'm joined with Chris Joseph, a creative and community builder to discuss Gentleness and Black Masculinity. Often our society pushes boys, men, and masculine folks to reject any and everything associated with gentleness or softness; leaving many folks with having to mask themselves, or put themselves in a box that they don't want to be in. In this episode we will talk about about our experiences growing up in Christian households, navigating Homophobia, and our relationsh...
