Men need to ‘talk about their feelings’ more. The modern man hears this refrain constantly: in the media, from online influencers – and often from their romantic partner. But what does it mean in practice? And how do we get better at it? You'll meet men’s therapist James Hawes who explains that the average man has just six words to express the full range of their emotions. And Max put’s his emotional expressiveness to the ultimate test, as he takes you onto the couch in his real-life couples’ counselling sessions.
