I wrote an essay about how we get to the other side of patriarchy. The essay is about my father, a prison cell, a jar, and what I’ve learned after a decade of unlearning. It’s free on Substack. Linktree in bio. If it moves you, share it with someone who needs it. #healingmasculinity #menswork

Honored to share I'm a 2025 Writing Freedom Fellow This fellowship connects me to a larger conversation about justice. Our problems can’t be solved by one person’s ideas. A collective must discuss ideas and come to a consensus about how we will move as a movement.
