RYAN MICHLER | The Assault on Masculinity

Ryan Michler, combat veteran, author, and host of the Order of Man podcast, joins Sean on Battleground to discuss the importance of resilience, vulnerability, and masculinity in dealing with challenging situations. Ryan and Sean discuss how one can overcome difficult experiences, such as losing a loved one or facing mental illness, and use them as a source of strength. Ryan emphasizes the importance of focusing on the present, having a sense of purpose, and practicing self-compassion. He also highlights the need for boys to have an engaged, caring, and masculine presence in their lives to understand their emotions and channel their energy into positive outcomes. While it seems unnatural for many men, vulnerability is an essential component of being a powerful man, and it takes courage to be open about one's struggles and share them with others. By being resilient, vulnerable, and embracing masculinity in a positive way, one can make a positive impact on the world.
