Sherman and Jimmy discuss their work creating spaces for men’s wellness and mentorship, emphasizing the importance of intergenerational conversations. This episode features Sherman and Jimmy's personal experiences and insights, focusing on the need for community engagement and support. They envision a future where community efforts are unified, creating a stronger, more connected Buffalo.
