Happy Wellness Wednesday stunners! 🦋 guys i tripped and fell into the so-called 'manosphere' this weekend and very quickly climbed back out... sparked by Louis Theroux's latest documentary exploring red pill and alpha male culture....

If you’re unfamiliar, the manosphere is a collection of online spaces where masculinity, dating, gender dynamics and modern relationships are very… passionately discussed. Watching it left me with a lot of thoughts - about hurt, belonging, identity, and what happens when people don’t quite know where to put their pain.

In this episode I share some reflections from the documentary, why I think curiosity is often more useful than judgment, and how growth sometimes simply looks like choosing a different direction for our pain.

Huge shoutout to @yourmoneymatesarah, whose reel I shared during the episode - I found her contribution to the conversation so thoughtful and incredibly well put 🫶🏻

So this week we’re chatting growth, masculinity, the internet, and why sometimes the most radical thing we can do is keep stretching towards the light.
