Reimagining Masculinity: Hunter Johnson's Path with The Man Cave

And the way that I think about this current state of masculinity is we're a time in between stories.
What does it mean to be a man today? This episode of 'All In The Mind' dives into the heart of modern masculinity with Hunter Johnson, the founder of The Man Cave. As a teenager, Hunter was all about being the best at sports, getting attention, and impressing girls. But one pivotal moment turned his world upside down, forcing him to rethink everything he thought he knew about being a man.
Now, he's dedicated to helping other young men navigate their own journeys through The Man Cave workshops. These workshops focus on emotional intelligence, offering a safe space for boys to drop their masks and embrace authenticity. From rites of passage to role modeling, Hunter's approach is about fostering deep, meaningful connections and challenging the harmful messages young men face today.
Technology and social media play a big role in shaping these messages, and Hunter discusses how to counteract their negative impacts. If you're curious about how we can redefine masculinity for the better, this episode is a must-listen.
