Was Your Father Affectionate? - The Hug I Never Got...

from Man, Listen - Mental Health Conversations for Black Men

Simple question. Heavy answer. When's the last time your dad hugged you? Told you he was proud of you? Said I loveyou — unprompted, no holiday, no crisis? For a lot of men, that question just hit somewhere unexpected. On this episodeof Man Listen, we get into what happens when a father's love was real but never expressed — and how that silenceshapes the men we become. How we love, how we receive love, and how we show up for our own kids. This one'spersonal. And if you're honest with yourself — it might be personal for you too.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
