Selfed Podcast: Real Conversations About Life and Emotional Wellness for Men

The Selfed Podcast is a space where we dive into what it really looks like for men to navigate life’s ups and downs. This isn’t about telling you what you should do—it’s about having honest, relatable conversations that meet you where you are. From dating and relationships to career challenges, grief, healing, and even the unexpected moments like dealing with abortion, we explore the stories and questions that shape men’s lives.

In the divisive world of content telling men to strive for the same thing, Selfed is here to take a more personalized approach. We ask the real questions and offer a perspective beyond the usual expectations and goals others set for you. Instead of just talking about what men should do, we explore what “doing the work” actually means through the stories of everyday people. This is a space to talk about the fun, the messy, the hard, and the rewarding parts of being a man trying to grow emotionally—without judgment or someone else’s agenda.

What You’ll Hear on the Selfed Podcast:

  • Dating & Relationships: What’s fun, what’s challenging, and what’s real about connection and intimacy.

  • Navigating Grief: How men process loss and find meaning after life-changing events.

  • Career & Purpose: The pressures, shifts, and decisions that define how we show up in the world.

  • Healing & Growth: What it looks like to face emotional struggles, and how men are learning to move forward.

Why This Matters:
Men are often told to be more emotionally available and expressive, but how does that actually play out in real life? The Selfed Podcast offers a place to hear real people share their stories, struggles, and lessons learned. It’s not just about emotional growth—it’s about understanding what matters most and finding ways to live a life that feels true to who you are.
