Are you out drinking with friends multiple days of the week, and feel lost when you don’t go out?Host Nick of The Betar Project and guest Mikele Kuhar, a men’s clarity coach, are discussing how many people use these forms of escapism to avoid their feelings. Men can have a hard time expressing their feelings, or even knowing how to feel them, and this leads to stunted personal development and a rough road to a happy life.Mikele shares his own journey to self-discovery and finding the balance of being and doing.
