In this clip, raye and I open up about something too many people.. especially men .. are silently facing: the pressure to stay quiet about their struggles.
This lack of vulnerability is heartbreaking. I know I’ve been guilty of holding things in, thinking I had to deal with it on my own.
But real strength starts with being honest about what you’re going through. You’re not weak for feeling. You’re human.
