In this segment of The Blessed Code™️, we take a hard look at manhood through the lens of vulnerability, societal pressure, and emotional survival. Michael Vick joins to explore the weight men carry — especially Black men — when they're told to be tough, silent, and unbreakable. From unpacking the misunderstood roots of toxic masculinity to the personal cost of emotional suppression, this conversation is a powerful reminder: being real doesn’t make you weak - it makes you free.
