In this solo episode of the Men’s Therapy Podcast, host and therapist Marc Azoulay is making the case that what most men are missing is initi...

Addiction is one of the most misunderstood forces in men's lives. It doesn’t always look like rock bottom. It can look like a high-functioning executive who has a spotless professional record. It can look like the life of the party who stays for the after-party when everyone else goes home. It can look like a college student pulling straight A's while quietly unraveling in private.

That’s exactly what this conversation is ab...

Emotional numbness does not always look like a crisis. For many men, it is quieter, a steady flatness, a sense of static that will not lift no matter how much they push.

The fawn response is one of the most misunderstood patterns in men’s psychology. It doesn’t look like weakness. It looks like generosity, agreeableness, and keeping the peace.

Divorce recovery is rarely just about legal paperwork and splitting assets. For most men, it’s one of the most disorienting experiences of their adult lives, and for those going through a high-conflict divorce, the chaos can stretch on for years.

Writing a book is one of the most revealing things a man can do. It forces you to sit with yourself, confront your insecurities, and commit to a process with no guaranteed payoff. For most men, that is exactly where the growth is, and it’s exactly where this conversation begins.

Therapy for men has a problem, and it starts long before a man ever walks into a session.

Spirituality is not the first word most men reach for when they are trying to fix their lives. But according to Dr. Dain Heer, it might be the most important one.

How to become a mentor?

For many men, business resiliency doesn’t begin with strategy or spreadsheets. It begins with pressure, uncertainty, and the slow realization that working harder is no longer enough. It often arrives alongside emotional exhaustion, strained relationships, and the sense that something beneath the surface is asking to be addressed. It is not in the market, but within the man himself.
