Episode Details

Episode 127: The Man Behind the "Father" Mask Around Father's Day, conversations often focus on what makes a good father. But what if fatherhood is simply one expression of something deeper? In this episode of Staying Power, Ashley and JD explore what helps men become healthier, more grounded, emotionally capable versions of themselves—and how that inner work shapes not only fatherhood, but friendships, partnerships, leadership, and community. Drawing from psychology, neuroscience, and modern research on masculinity, they discuss emotional awareness, responsibility, connection, purpose, and the challenges men face in a rapidly changing world. Because before a man can care for others well, he must learn how to care for himself. And be sure to check out the fine work done by our sponsor, Pars Revive Renovation! https://parsrenovation.com/
