<p><strong>Real Men Feel: 10-Year Anniversary—From Blab to Authentic AF</strong></p><p>Andy Grant celebrates 10 years of Real Men Feel, which first went live on February 23, 2016 on Blab, and thanks co-founder Appio Hunter, past guests, and listeners for helping create a space where men can talk about the full range of emotions. The episode features audio from the very beginning of the first 2016 episode, a clip from episode 100 about two and a half years later reflecting on how the show grew from a planned monthly, 30-minute format into weekly hour-long conversations with guests, and additional segments from more recent discussions. </p><p>Across multiple guest clips answering the recurring question, “What’s one thing you wish more men knew?”, themes include vulnerability as strength, listening, empathy, belonging and finding a tribe, not having to be the strongest or prove masculinity, being allowed to say no and speak up, self-acceptance and compassion, and not having to go it alone. Andy concludes that men need more connection rather than more advice and invites listeners to join the Authentic AF community at realmenfeel.org/group, offering live calls, men’s circles, meditations, honest conversations, and relationships without performance or posturing.</p><p>00:00 10-Year Anniversary: Why Real Men Feel Exists<br />02:02 How the Episode Will Unfold: Clips From 2016 to Now<br />02:47 Flashback to Episode 1 (2016): Andy’s Mission &amp; Creating Space for Men<br />04:18 Meet Co-Host Appio Hunter: Emotional Healing &amp; Men as Human Beings<br />06:22 Episode 100 Throwback: Celebrating the Journey &amp; Early Blab Days<br />11:01 From Monthly to Weekly: How the Show’s Format Evolved<br />13:09 “One Thing I Wish More Men Knew” Montage Begins: Vulnerability &amp; Belonging<br />15:49 Relationships as a Portal: Communication, Healing &amp; Intimacy<br />18:58 More Wisdom From Guests: Listening, Ego, Empathy &amp; Authenticity<br />22:45 You Don’t Have to Go It Alone: Voice, Support &amp; Self-Acceptance<br />27:53 Closing Reflections: Connection Over Advice + Join Authentic AF</p><p><strong>Connect with Andy and the Real Men Feel Podcast:</strong><br />Join me and connect with other like-minded men in the<br />Authentic AF Community | <a href="http://realmenfeel.org/group" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://realmenfeel.org/group</a><br />Instagram | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/realmenfeelshow/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@realmenfeelshow</a> &amp; <a href="https://www.instagram.com/theandygrant/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@theandygrant</a><br />Andy Grant | <a href="https://theandygrant.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://theandygrant.com</a> for coaching, healing, and book info!<br />Real Men Feel | <a href="http://realmenfeel.org" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://</a><a href="http://realmenfeel.org" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">realmenfeel.org</a><br />YouTube | <a href="https://www.youtube.com/realmenfeel" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtube.com/realmenfeel</a></p><p>#RealMenFeel ep 392</p>
