Chapter 1: Are men and women changing roles in modern culture?
Now, do both of you feel like women are being a little masculine these days, though, because they have to work more than they used to in the past?
I've been at these institutions where there are a lot of women who are incredibly masculine and sometimes even have toxic masculine.
Chapter 2: What does 'healthy masculinity' look like?
And so it makes sense because women are fighting in a system where often men have power over them and it's the way that they've reacted.
Chapter 3: How do childhood experiences affect adult behavior?
But I don't think we want to match the behavior of power over and toxic masculinity. Women need to like really reach into their biology and respond from that way.
Chapter 4: What are the links between trauma and physical health?
Women are incredibly good at regulation.
Chapter 5: Why do high-achievers struggle in relationships?
We're really good at co-regulation, kind of like what you do with a baby to calm a baby down when it's upset. And so that's where we need to really shine is to regulate ourselves and co-regulate others.
Chapter 6: What is the importance of emotional regulation for men?
And when you think about masculinity, I think of it around a polarity.
Chapter 7: How can tracking physiological markers improve health?
You know, we talk a lot about feminism, but femininity, divine femininity, powerful, beautiful, and divine authentic masculinity.

Chapter 8: What role does nature play in mental and physical well-being?
Exactly. So you were both interns at the same company? We were. Wow. Same hospital, UC San Francisco. Holy crap.
Yeah, we were little interns, you know, little white jackets, stethoscopes around our necks. Nice. Little dorks.
Bright green. A lot of strange things, I know. Yep. Were you, like, friends the whole way through, or did you rekindle at some point? Yeah, rekindled professionally, what, a decade ago?
I always had thoughts for him.
Yeah. Yeah. That's what it was.
And vice versa.
What are you talking about? She says that, but I don't know if I believe her or not. When you're talking about masculinity, I mean, it's a good topic to get girls interested in you, right?
It is. You've got to lean in and you've got to see if they're ready, if they can take it and handle it.
Well, if it's done right.
