Unmasking Toxic Masculinity with Larry Penton

On this episode of Groove with Portia, I am joined by Larry Penton Sr (LP), Founder of Penton Pending Consulting Solutions LLC. Larry opens up about the challenges of dealing with grief from the standpoint of being a first responder. Being a man, yet alone a man of color, a heavy stigma is placed around grief and mental wellness. Larry shares how men can learn to embrace vulnerability along with the role toxic masculinity plays in addressing grief. He offers men a blueprint to navigate complex emotions through professional help or another form of holistic wellness such as meditation to dismantle the stigma on mental health and grief.
