Or maybe you’ve noticed seasons where you’re more receptive, creative, and flowing, but struggle to get s*it done? There’s a framework that might explain this. And no, it has nothing to do with whether you’re a man or a

Here’s an honest confession: I almost didn’t write this article. Not because the topic isn’t important. It is. But because the phrase “toxic masculinity” has become one of those terms that either makes people defensive or turns them off completely before the conversation even starts. And I get it.
