I was thrilled to talk for second time on The Sensitive CEO Show with William Allen. Our last conversation was one of the very early episodes on the podcast, episode 8 where we discussed HSP Men in which Bill is quite an authority. He has written two books on this topic and began his blog titled 'The Sensitive Man' in 2016.
In this week's episode we discuss the Sensitive Men Rising movie which is due to premier next month. This is the first documentary on male high sensitivity processing sensitivity and is turning the lens on the billion men who have this trait.
💝 Key Takeaways
- Bill shares with us a brief overview of the Sensitive Men Rising movie.
- How the movie may be received by men who are not highly sensitive and any expected pushback on the topics this film will touch.
- What the term "sensitive men" means and how it differs from traditional notions of masculinity.
- What viewers can hope to take away from the film and how Bill believes it will impact conversations around sensitivity, specifically for men.
- The role sensitive men can play in creating positive change in the world.
- We discuss Bill's experiences from his involvement in the film and the video shoot he did with Dr. Tracy Cooper.
- How men who are interested in exploring their own sensitivity can begin to do so.
