Gavin Casalegno has quickly become one of the defining faces of a new kind of masculinity — open, grounded, and unafraid to feel. Best known for his role as Jeremiah in The Summer I Turned Pretty, Gavin is carving out space for men to lead with heart, not ego. He’s thoughtful, intentional, and deeply aware of the platform he holds — both on-screen and off.

In this episode, Gavin opens up about how the most powerful thing a guy can do is be vulnerable — and what that actually looks like in real life. He talks about where he turns for advice, what it really means to live in the public eye, the mindful nature behind his clothing brand Kai Lo, and why at the end of the day — no matter what “team” you’re on — he’s still just a human being trying to navigate it all.

Don’t miss this conversation where Gavin opens up about:

• Redefining what strength and vulnerability mean for men today
• The emotional responsibility of playing Jeremiah and connecting with fans
• How he stays centered through faith, family, and mindful practice
• The purpose and philosophy behind his brand Kai Lo
• Why empathy and authenticity matter more than ever in a world obsessed with image
• And why he always flirted with his babysitter
