Jonathan Greenfield (a.k.a. Jonathan Chase in the acting realm)—men's coach, grief guide, longtime actor, and devotee of "sacred play"—joins me for a raw, tender, and grounded conversation about men's work, heartbreak, and becoming more fully human in a culture obsessed with productivity and performance.
We explore what it means for men to feel again—fully—and how grief, vulnerability, and community can alchemize old wounds into soft strength, relational integrity, and a more compassionate world.
In this episode, we explore:
-
What happens when a father dies, a marriage implodes, and you realize your partner can't meet all your needs
-
Men's work as "healing the world one man at a time" and why community is essential, not optional
-
The difference between performing emotion and actually feeling it in the body
-
Soft strength, divine masculine presence, and becoming a safe emotional container instead of a fixer
-
Grief as a profound expression of love.
-
The trap of thriving on paper while feeling empty and alone at night
-
Why many men have no close male friends they can call — and what becomes possible when they do
This one is for anyone who longs to see men free to feel full-spectrum, untangle their worth from their bank accounts and titles, and show up as heart-centered, present humans.
