  • Love the Fresh Outlook!

    This is my first listen on Head Strong and I loved it. Adam Richardson’s advice on getting and staying healthy is not at all intimidating and so sustainable. I’ve already passed this on to friends.

James Marriott Gets Real: Emotions, Identity & the Truth Behind Don’t Tell The Dog
Q: What do you think of the phrase, man up?
It's lost all its meaning; it seems to promote a pressure to be thicker-skinned rather than advocating for genuine emotional strength.
