In XYBM 115, I sit down with Joél Leon, a performer, storyteller, and author, to discuss the complexities of masculinity in today’s society. We explore Joél’s personal experiences growing up in a dangerous neighborhood, the societal pressures he faced as a young man, and how these challenges intersect with body dysmorphia and the Body Positivity movement.
We also dive into the power of self-acceptance and the transformative impact of vulnerability. In addition, we share our insights on navigating one-sided relationships and the emotional toll they can take.
Tune in for a candid conversation on masculinity, self-acceptance, and the importance of vulnerability in navigating life’s challenges.
