"Suicide is not the answer to the problem. It is the problem. You're beautiful just as you are, and you are enough." - Kevin (1:10:50)
"We are all human who want the same things. We want to experience joy and love. We want to be seen…We want to build some legacy, to be valued, to make a mark in some way." - Jamey (24:57)
"The thoughts are…It's almost like you're on this radio station and you can't change the channel...And it's constant and it's all the time and it is inescapable in many ways…But the solution is not for you to go. It’s to actually ask for help." - Liz (16:48)
"Brain pain. what we all are used to calling mental health and mental illness…is worse than any physical pain you could ever possibly experience. Because the people around you invalidate it.

They don't want to die. They believe they have to." - Kevin (29:07)

Justin Baldoni, actor, filmmaker, advocate, Man Enough Podcast co-host, and director and co-star of “It Ends With Us” joined the conversation to share why he was so passionate about turning the book into a film and the importance of engaging men to help stop and prevent domestic abuse.

Liz and Jamey highlight how men are actively dismantling long-standing barriers to equality. They stress the importance for men, the traditional power holders, to actively support women in leadership roles, especially Black women and other historically marginalized people.
Men will make great impact when they recognize women’s contributions and help to break down barriers that have long kept them from positions of power. By standing with them and championing their leadership, men can help shape a future where everyone thrives.
This episode encourages all of us, particularly men, to engage in meaningful conversations, challenge the status quo, and work together to build a society that values and uplifts everyone. It is a collective movement toward a more just and inclusive world, where men and women unite in a societal awakening that drives people to build something new together.
QUOTES:
"The best room is not a room full of women. It's a room full of everybody." – Liz (32:57)
"We look for all reasons to keep people down, to oppress, and to not let women (I don't even like saying the word 'let' like it's mine to even give), but to not champion women being in their full glory." – Jamey (20:20)
"This is a huge moment for women, for women of color being our leaders and us following them and supporting them." – Liz (5:26)
“I need my son and my daughter, other sons and daughters to learn how to see with their own eyes, hear with their own ears, to make an assessment that's borne out of truth, and not just false imitation. Just because my parents thought it, just because someone else said it. It's like really dive in yourself. And I feel like men…the more that we take a good look at ourselves, look at who's in front of us, look at the capacity of people, look at the beauty of people, look at some of the faults…do it with our own eyes and not get caught up in the mob, we become better, and better, and better.” - Jamey (33:02)
“it's not men versus women. A lot of people will try and convince you that that's the way that it is. If you give a lot to women, that means you're taking away from men...The other option is men plus women equals even infinity, that when we work together, and we collaborate, and we love each other, and we unite, and we connect, then the world is our oyster. Then we all get more freedom. We all get more possibility. We all get more liberty, and all of the beautiful things that we want in life. And it's a lot more fun...when we get along.” - Liz (31:59)
“We're seeing men…[that] are the fruit of all the labor that you have been doing, of so many people who are saying, "Don't ignore us. We have incredible things to say. Get your foot off my neck." And that's what makes me feel proud when I see men of this nature raising money for something 10 years ago would've not. 100 years ago, they would've been in jail for raising money for a Black campaign, or shot and killed.” - Jamey (10:01)

QUOTES:
"You don’t just wake up one day to get shot by your husband. There are things that you go through in your life that bring you to that." - Kimya
"We have to produce more media where people can see examples of positive manhood because we take it for granted that everyone sees this." - Dr. Tartt
"To be man enough means to be your authentic self, not being defined by what other people say you should be or represent as a man, but what does being a man feel like to you?" - Kimya
"The most healing came from me sharing my story with other people, hearing women and men come and say, ‘Thank you for sharing that,’ and then they were able to share their stories of abuse, surviving, and men who had a part." - Kimya
"Being man enough means being bigger than your pride and admitting that you need help." - Dr. Tartt
"The emotional abuse usually sets the groundwork for the physical abuse to then feel normal or even deserved." - Liz

From redefining traditional gender roles to maintaining healthy relationships with exes, this episode offers relatable insights and practical advice.
Whether you're seeking self-compassion or reflecting on life's journey, Jamey and Liz provide an engaging discussion on modern masculinity and building fulfilling, balanced lives.
TIMECODES:
(02:58) Topic Begins: Men Under 30 Ask, Jamey (Man Over 30) Answers
(04:57) @lookforrev: “What skills have you learned around self-compassion?”
(09:22) @AustinCA03: "Dads who had kids relatively early, how do you maintain balance in your life while also providing for your child and spouse?"
(13:58) Theo: "What are the interpersonal or relationship skills you wish you could have learned earlier and how would you have gone about learning them?"
(20:37) James: How are expectations of what it means to be a provider changing when we are all struggling in this economy?
(25:25) Riley: "What are the positives of getting older?"
(31:06) "What can I do to help overcome the voice that's telling me to keep being miserable?"
(35:49) Jamey asks Liz: "At what point does it become easier?"
(39:31) "Who has been able to maintain strong and healthy relationship with their exes?"
QUOTES:
"I think you fall in love much more easily when you accept the person that you are trying to be in love with." - Jamey
“The voice inside my head that I thought was me for 30 plus years is actually a liar. And in the moments where I feel like that voice is really loud, that's a signal to me that I need to behave differently. Because I think it's hard to change the voice, but if you are treating yourself with compassion and you're treating yourself kindly, then that voice will become less high-pitched.” - Liz
“In this day and age where more and more women are being seen and valued for their contributions, as they should, have opportunities more than maybe at one time were afforded to them, I think families have to consult and discuss what providing means. It doesn't just mean financially. Does dad provide for the family emotionally, taking care of the home, watching out for the children, taking them to baseball practice or laundry and dishes?” - Jamey
"I feel like friendships, relationships are built in the nothingness, in the mundane stuff, and just the normal stuff." - Jamey
"I'm gonna look back at this time and think I was so young. I'm not gonna think about all the insecurities that I have right now about how aging is showing up in my body." - Liz
“How we can be better in the world, how we can be better to our parents, our children, our friends, our workmates? When you are fully accountable, then you can have real forgiveness for yourself.” - Jamey
“If you can see the end in the beginning, you might think that very thing that you were distressed about, knowing that that's what's going to then get you to the next stage. So I think part of the thing to make life easier is embrace where you are in this day.” - Jamey

#Masculinity #Men #ManEnough #under30over30
Jamey shares a visceral reaction to seeing women be brutally mistreated (03:11), discussing the conflicting feelings of rage and the need for non-violent responses. Liz highlights the importance of listening to women and understanding their experiences without shifting the focus to male emotions (07:37). They discuss the necessity of creating safe spaces for men to seek help before resorting to violence, emphasizing proactive education for young boys to foster respect and empathy (12:27).
Men are urged to consider their roles in preventing abuse and supporting victims, with a poignant reminder of the need for systemic change and personal accountability. The conversation closes with resources for those in need of support (see http://nomore.org) and a call to action for ongoing dialogue and education (27:48).
TIMECODES:
(01:38) P. Diddy’s violence and its broader implications
(03:17) Personal reactions and emotional impact, the human impact of witnessing such violence
(05:07) What do we do with these feelings? How do we hold men accountable?
(06:00) The effect of aggressive male reactions on female victims they love - how to be more helpful
(10:03) How power plays into men getting away with violence, men around them staying silent
(12:41) Training young boys to see women as valuable, to see themselves as gentle creatures and not violent ones
(13:35) Quick to condemn when we see it, but no serious consequences (Trump, Cosby, R. Kelly, Weinstein)
(19:51) Why women get into violent relationships and stay - “You love the person by the time they're doing it”
(23:41) The importance of videos like this spreading even though they’re horrific, and how valuable it is to talk about this
(27:48) Resources for people experiencing abuse and for men that feel like they might be violent to get help before they cause harm (http://nomore.org)
QUOTES:
"How do we hold each other accountable as men when we see other men do things of this nature?" - Jamey Heath
"We have to train our young boys to see women, to see themselves as gentle creatures and not violent creatures." - Jamey Heath
"When a woman is treated like an animal, we have to address it. We have to stop it." - Jamey Heath
"We reward men who are extremely uncaring and who get to where they're at by hurting people." - Liz Plank
"I went to a Trump rally for women and I asked, ‘What would you say to 7 out of 10 women have an unfavorable view of Donald Trump?’ And one woman's answer really stuck with me: "I think 7 out of 10 women have an unfavorable view of a lot of men. So I'm still going to vote for him." This idea that the bar is so low for what we expect from men in our society, that even women will want to put this person in power even though he is a violent person towards women.” - Liz Plank
"It's tricky because you have someone who's in a position of power who's paying people's bills. It's your job, it's your livelihood…We should say something, but I've got a family to uphold." - Jamey Heath
