I really enjoyed my time with Ettore Toppi on the Authenticity Road Podcast – Adventures in Men’s Work. We have a broad and deep about men’s work, in all its glory and messiness. We talk openly about the ManKind Project’s origin, how it’s evolved, and how we continue to expand our understandings. Check it out.
“Toxic” Femininity & Masculinity: How The Establishment Divides Us | Boysen Hodgson
“Masculinity and femininity are inherently beautiful, yet the media has distorted these words with the phrase “toxic.” Together, now we get to decide as a culture how to move forward with a new narrative. Society is changing, and we’re not going backward.” – Boysen Hodgson
What factors of our culture and society are no longer serving the feminine and masculine? How can we come and work together to create something new that fits what we want?
In Wellness + Wisdom episode 258, Marketing & Communications Director for The ManKind Project USA and author of The New Macho, Boysen Hodgson, explains what has created “toxic” masculinity and feminity, how men and women can process and connect through safe spaces, and the #IAmResponsible Campaign that MKP has launched in response to #MeToo.
Learn how men can support each other to heal from their past traumas, come to their whole masculine and feminine selves, and realign with women.
Peter and I talk about what it means to wake up in a time of great change … hence the title of the episode “Spiritual Awakening in Tipping Point Times.”

I was recently quoted in an article by Harvey Deutschendorf for Fast Company Magazine on building cultures of mentoring in organizations. The same article was republished in HR Professional Magazine. Building relational skills is an important aspect of men’s work.

I enjoyed this connection with Peter King. We got into talking about how big societal and cultural shifts have impacted men and how these changes impact men’s lives.
What do modern men know? What are we supposed to know? And how do outdated expectations of men still inform what we’re being socialized to be?
Jayson Gaddis is … so … cool. I’m always happy to have the opportunity to be with him, learn from him, and share with him. I hope you enjoy.
What is men’s work? Most people are unclear what this term means, but once you find out, you’ll be cheering on men who are involved in it. In this podcast, I interview one of the key players in the largest men’s organizations in the world. We cover some very intimate subjects, including #metoo, fatherhood, and the power of getting together as men.
