Solo Show this week!
First – continues thanks for all of the feedback around the last solo show, where I shared about navigating my daughters mental health issues. It means the world to me to know that the content of the show is landing for you, and making a difference in your life.
This week I am talking about our boys.
- Toxic Masculinity
- We have to do better for our boys
- Partners – emotional intelligence is for everyone
- Posturing
- Fragile Egos
- Curiosity
- Routine of talking about how we feel
- It’s not coddling – if we keep toughening them up and having them suppress how they feel we will continue to see cultures where war and violence exist
- Not blaming
- Not from a place of fear
- We all get to be full humans
- Boys and their fear of labels
- Build Skills
- More than just “walk away”
- Saving face w/o being a dick
- Being a champion
- People like him. He can take criticism, doesn’t make people choose friends, and doesn’t blow off someone for a better offer. When people are harassed or demeaned, he intervenes. He’s comfortable hanging out with guys who are both inside and outside the box. He holds his own opinion, but still listens to others.
- TALK ABOUT IT BEING HARD
- VALIDATE THEIR EXPEREINCE
- SUPPORT THEM IN RESPONSES TO LIFE
- This isn’t helicoptering
- Belonging significance influence
- Aren’t feeling it, they will take it where they can
- Posturing
- Insecure OR entitled
- All boys fall into a role where they feel safe
- Talk to your boys
- Keep talking
- Talk about emotions
- Check your “should/shouldn’t’ at the door
- Be open, own your mistakes, encourage them when you see life skills on display
- Love them up
