Do you ever feel you're carrying the emotional weight of the relationship, wishing your man would step up? In this episode, Dr. Alexandra Stockwell sits down with G.S. Youngblood, author of The Masculine in Relationship and The Art of Embodiment for Men, to explore how men's work, masculine leadership, emotional safety, and energetic polarity influence intimacy, trust, and connection—and why a man's defensiveness or withdrawal may signal that deeper growth is required, growth his woman just can not do for him. About The Guest: GS Youngblood is the author of "The Masculine in Relationship" and "The Art of Embodiment for Men," bringing over 15 years of experience as both a student and teacher in men's work and relationships. He argues that many relationship issues stem from a lack of Masculine leadership and advocates for men to live from their Masculine Core to alleviate these problems. His approach emphasizes doing one's own work before attempting to resolve issues within the relationship.
