Many fathers spent their lives learning how to provide for their families. But emotional connection often became much harder to pass down.

My guest today is Marc Azoulay, therapist and founder of Men’s Therapy Online. Marc works with men navigating relationships, identity, purpose, and emotional health across different stages of life.

In this episode, Marc shares his own journey through addiction, recovery, and self-discovery. We look at the emotional disconnect many men experience with themselves, their children, and each other.

You’ll hear about:

• Why Marc believes many men were never taught emotional connection
• The frightening turning point that forced him to reevaluate his life
• How different generations of men struggle with identity, work, and purpose
• The reason why emotional openness between men still feels uncomfortable
• How curiosity can help parents strengthen relationships with adult children
