Grab a pen and paper and join us on this episode, where we dive into the power of journaling. We begin the episode with some general chit chat between men, exchanging ideas and thought and our reflections on how the journey has been for Hearts Wide Open: From starting our first podcast 6 months ago, to regularly releasing better and better episodes for a growing audience of men who want to embrace themselves and live more authentically. Halfway into it, we invite you to join us on the creative writing exercise that helps us visit our younger selves through creative storytelling. If you don't have a pen and paper, feel free to use a note on your phone. Feel free to share your story with us via voice message (see below) or in text. Want to join our online men's circle? You can put yourself on the waiting list by getting in touch with us (see below). We're launching soon!
