Derik Jones
Unburdened is a podcast focused on the mental health of black men. We provide a safe space for your thoughts. We dissect our toxic masculinity and how it affected us and others throughout our lives, and how we can free ourselves from what we were taught. There is only one rule: No homophobia, transphobia or misogyny allowed. Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/unburdened/support
The Death of the Superhero Athlete

We also talk about grace, and we talk about how important it is to give to others and to ourselves, but how it is something that everyone wants, but no one wants to give.   Email: [email protected] Twitter: @UnburdenedPod Intro & Outro Music: As Colorful As Ever - Broke For Free Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/singlesimulcast Paypal: paypal.me/singlesimulcast --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/unburdened/support
