<p>What happens when culture starves boys of emotion, and biology starves brains of nutrients?</p><p>In this powerful episode of <strong>Truehope Cast</strong>, host Simon Brazier sits down with psychologist, writer, and mentor <strong>Gloria Vanderhorst</strong> for a bold conversation about raising emotionally healthy sons in a world that often misunderstands them.</p><p>Gloria began her career working with young boys labelled “hyperactive” and “attention-deficient.” What she discovered was far deeper: our culture systematically restricts male emotional development, leaving many boys disconnected from their feelings, and many men struggling in marriage, fatherhood, and identity.</p><p>Together, we explore:</p><ul><li><p>Why are boys often misdiagnosed instead of understood</p></li><li><p>How fathers shape (or stunt) emotional resilience</p></li><li><p>Why husbands “disappoint” and what’s really happening beneath the surface</p></li><li><p>How unresolved childhood experiences silently invade adult relationships</p></li><li><p>The intersection of psychology and physiology in building true resilience</p></li><li><p>Why addressing chronic nutrient deficiencies may be a missing piece in mental health care</p></li></ul><p>At Truehope, we believe mental health is both psychological <em>and</em> biological. This conversation brings those worlds together.</p><p>If you’re a parent, a father, a husband or simply someone who wants to understand the male emotional landscape more deeply, this episode is for you.</p><p>Website: <a href="" target="_new" rel="noopener">https://www.gloriavanderhorst.com</a><br>Blog: <a href="" target="_new" rel="noopener">https://www.gloriavanderhorst.com/blog</a><br>LinkedIn: <a href="" target="_new" rel="noopener">https://www.linkedin.com/in/gloria-vanderhorst</a></p><p>🎧 Listen now and subscribe for more conversations at the intersection of brain health, relationships, and resilience.<br>Learn more about Truehope at <a href="https://www.truehopecanada.com" target="_new" rel="noopener">https://www.truehopecanada.com</a></p><p>🔗 Connect with Gloria Vanderhorst</p>
