About this listen
In this episode, we dismantle the lie men were handed early: “man up.” Not because strength is bad, but because performance-based masculinity trains men to shut down, swallow pain, and carry pressure alone until it shows up as rage, burnout, distance, or silence.
I’m Angela R. Strong. After 27 years leading in high-stakes environments, I’ve learned this: real strength isn’t numbness. It’s emotional discipline, self-respect, and the ability to stay present under pressure without abandoning yourself or the people who count on you.
If you’ve been doing everything “right” but still feel heavy, tense, or one trigger away from snapping… this episode is your reset.

Stop. Breathe. Choose. Then lead.
