In today's episode, I'm talking with NY-based coach, teacher and speaker, Connor Beaton about the challenges men are facing in our modern society. Connor and I talk through how understanding the experience of men better, we can cultivate healthier relationships and happier and more fulfilled lives.
Note: while On Attachment aims to be as inclusive as possible, this conversation is focused primarily on male-female relationships and the dynamics that can arise therein. We know that's not everyone's experience, so feel free to take from this episode what resonates with you, and leave what doesn't.
We'll cover:
- Numbing out pain from childhood and using unhealthy coping mechanisms
- Stopping the cycle of running away from yourself
- What it looks like inside a relationship when men are lacking confidence & competence
- How vulnerability can be practised with men
- What makes a great relationship
