So every man abandons the most authentic version of himself at one point in his life, right? Every man was a little boy at one point that felt truly authentic of who he was. And at one moment in this little boy's life, he felt an emotion come up that he was afraid to feel, whether it was anger or crying or shame or embarrassment or doubt or insecurity. This little boy felt this emotion coming and he was told not to feel it. He was too afraid to feel it and so he suppressed it. And this was the moment he started to hide his authentic self. He started to put this little boy in a room and said, hey, stay right here. I'm gonna go find out what I need to do to make you feel safe so you can feel these emotions. And so this little boy's abandoned and the man goes and finds money and women and success and sex and all these things that he thought was gonna help this boy feel safe. And lo and behold, this little boy inside of him still feels really scared and unloved and unsafe and unheard. And so every moment in man's life, he goes, oh, it's not the money and the women and the success and the sex that I needed. It was actually just love. It was actually softness. It was actually just a safe space to feel these emotions around other men, around other women. And that is the healing journey of men. That is the journey that all these men are on. That is why so many men are taking their lives because they found all these things that they thought were gonna secure this little boy and they did the opposite. So if there's any men out there, I see you and I celebrate you on your healing journey and your journey back to that younger, authentic version of yourself to feel safe, to feel loved, to feel seen, to feel encouraged. I love you guys. Peace.
