On this week’s episode of The True North Show I am joined by Dr Gloria Vanderhorst who shares with us the work she is doing to help men and father’s raise their boys to be comfortable with showing emotion and to have empathy. This work is going to have a huge impact on the generations that follow and the research she has uncovered gives insight into the fact that men and boys are taught to be tough and not to show emotion.
