How can masculinity adapt to create emotional safety in relationships? That's the question Sheri and Matt Salis tackle in this engaging episode of the Untoxicated Podcast. The couple, who have been through the wringer with Matt's past alcoholism, delve into the concept of evolving masculine instincts to better support emotional safety in partnerships and families.
With their characteristic blend of humour and honesty, they explore what it means to be 100% emotionally safe rather than just 99%, highlighting how even a small amount of emotional insecurity can be damaging.
