John Lee has been on the forefront of the movement to help men with their health, psychological and spiritual well-being and recovery for decades. He has written 23 books on men’s issues, recovery, anger, grief, relationship, creativity, and spirituality. He has taught his techniques and theories to thousands of individuals, couples, families, groups, corporations, and therapists all over the world.
There are a handful of men that we can point to and thank for having the courage to challenge the Man Rules long before it was safe enough or accepted as okay. John Lee is one of those men.
In this episode, Dan and John talk about the progress men have made in the last few decades. John talks fondly of the time he spent with Robert Bly, one of the true pioneers of looking differently at men’s lives and how the two of them had the privilege of being with hundreds and even thousands of men who were looking for a way out of the quiet desperation tearing their lives apart.
GrooDan and John cover a lot of material from the unfortunate portrayals of men in the media from idiot to hyper-masculine warrior, the significance of the superhero resurrection, the importance of mentors, the lack of depth in many of today’s discussions about masculinity, and their hopes for the future.
Hear two generations of leaders of this powerful conversation about masculinity come together for the first time.
