I am in admiration for the courage of the men who showed up for our inaugural Busting Myths of Masculinity event at farm yesterday.

The small group that I led in sessions to debrief, check in, and share about our lives and our life’s journeys, have spoken since about the positive and affirming outcomes of the gathering.

We ain’t gonna get it perfect all the time, but we know there’s a new choice in the next 10 seconds, and we are asking more questions about what else is possible now! 😀💥
