I think right now we are coming to such an extreme point, to the point where, you know, men are being shamed for being a man. We hear shit like toxic masculinity, and it's, you know, we are being forced to be feminine. And I think that's fucking ridiculous, because it's not the nature of the man to be soft.
What does it take to break free from the cycle of addiction and violence? In this episode of 'The Celesto Show', host Celesto de Groot sits down with Malachai Casanova to explore the complex layers of masculinity, dating, and status within the black community. Malachai opens up about his struggles with addiction to weed starting at just 14 years old and how he has since turned his life around to inspire other young men to do the same.
Their conversation dives deep into the societal pressures and historical impacts that shape the experiences of young black men today. From the toxic masculinity debate to the lasting effects of slavery, no topic is off-limits. Malachai shares raw and personal stories of growing up in an environment where respect was often earned through violence, and how he managed to escape that destructive cycle.
Celesto adds his insights on the importance of embracing masculine energy as a means of self-improvement, arguing that modern society often forces men to suppress their natural strength. Together, they tackle tough questions about what it means to be a man in today's world and how young men can reclaim their power in healthy, constructive ways.
If you're interested in a conversation that blends personal experience with broader societal issues, this episode offers a compelling look at the journey towards self-improvement and the reclaiming of masculine identity.
