Men's Therapy Podcast Marc Azoulay

MTO therapist, Desmond Cohen, comes back on the podcast to provide commentary on how reality TV can be a vehicle to study gender norms.

Our guest today is 3x Memory Champion John Graham. He's competed and won in memory competitions all over the world. However, he has struggled with panic attacks and anxiety that almost cost him his title.

Mentors can be hard find. So many of the guys that we work with struggle to connect and learn from older men.

What is grit? And, how does one develop it? Many men are embarrassed by our lack of grit, determination, and discipline. We think it comes naturally and that we either have it or we don't.

We are not an island. Men need support from other men. Our guest, Rashad Sutton, is a peer recovery coach and works as a business development professional for Raleigh House, a substance abuse treatment center in Denver, CO.

Each of us carry limiting beliefs - we're not smart enough, strong enough, or skilled enough. Our mind is full of can't, won't, and never.
