Emotional Wellness for men
Welcome to Selfed, a unique podcast that delves into the unexplored territory of emotional growth and maturity for men. In a society that often encourages men to be more emotionally expressive and available, we aim to show you what that journey truly looks like. Through real-life experiences, insights, and challenges, we guide men on the path to emotional wellness.
My journey into emotional maturity began through therapy, Yoga Teacher Training, self-help books, and working in spaces typically dominated by women. But what truly transformed my understanding was connecting with other men, hearing their struggles, and having open, honest conversations about the immaturity, avoidance, and ignorance we often face. These discussions were not only eye-opening but also crucial to my own healing and growth.
Selfed is not just a podcast, it's a personal journey that I embarked on during the pandemic. After a pause following my “graduation“ from therapy, I've returned with even greater intention. Whether you're here to listen to the podcast, read our blog, or both, you’ll find a wealth of experiences and resources that I've personally found helpful on my journey of self-discovery and emotional wellness.

Selfed 39 - self rejection is many mini acceptances
In this episode, I confront the discomfort of self-rejection and explore how many small acceptances of less-than-ideal situations build up over time. I share personal experiences where my low expectations led to feeling disappointed and deprioritized, and how these mini requests train us to believe we deserve less.
Selfed 13 - a potato is still a potato
In this episode of Selfed, I reflect on a profound food analogy that my friend shared with me while we were cooking. As I struggled to cut sweet potatoes, my friend’s simple observation made me realize how much effort we often put into changing others instead of accepting them for who they are.
