It’s easy to look at the advancements in gender equity and to rightly say we still have a lot of work to do. Gender equity, particularly on the advancement of women, is a topic that is discussed often on this show. However, is it possible that in our commitment to advance one gender, we’ve ignored, demoralized, or shamed another?
How are men really doing in the age of women? To discuss this, Eleanor is speaking to Connor Beaton, a coach, teacher, and speaker who has been working for almost a decade to help men and women walk through their darkness and grow in the realms of mental clarity, relational communication, and actualize their potential and sexual intimacy. He’s also the author of Men’s Work, and host of the popular ManTalks podcast.
Join Eleanor and Connor on this episode as they look at gender equity through the lens of men. They’re exploring how men are really doing, why the narratives young men are being fed are concerning, and how we can partner with them to create more cohesion, grounding, and regulation for an equitable future and a productive society that’s capable of dealing with the big challenges of our time.
