Justin Baldoni

undefining my masculinity

"Actor (Jane the Virgin), director (Five Feet Apart), and well-known social activist (Wayfarer) Justin Baldoni is boldly taking on the issues of toxic masculinity. He tackles his own struggles and brings up previously unspoken taboos to help create a new understanding and system of accountability. It is not just about becoming better men, but becoming more human. Topics will include redefining masculinity, female empowerment, relationships, violence and abuse, sex and sexuality, infidelity, body image, work-life balance, and fatherhood. Justin arms readers with new tools and the ability to have both compassion and empathy for themselves and the men in their lives in this urgent, groundbreaking and provocative reimagining of what it means to be man enough"--, Provided by publisher
