The Liberation Project: A Movement For Manhood

Sometimes, days just suck. You can't deny it...it's just hard. So what do we do when we have a terrible day? Do we run? Sit in it? Invite people into it? In this episode, Blair and justin discuss the idea of having a crappy day, and how to respond.   A few highlights of the episode: - The most powerful way to love someone is to be present with them (not to fix them!). - We have to be vulnerable and empathetic when we are connecting with someone else's pain.  - Processing pain requires us to "get behind" the anger, and allow ourselves to feel sad or disappointed.  - We have emotions and they are going to be felt...it just matters how and when. - You must give yourself time to be present with your emotions. - If you sit in the present, your authentic emotions will emerge. - Create relationships where people can be present with you as you are going through emotions.
