  • Raising Emotionally Strong Boys: Stop Shutting Down Their Feelings
    Jan 30 2026
    Boys often get labeled “too much” or “difficult” when what they really need is emotional understanding.

    Host Lisa Urbanski talks with psychologist Dr. Gloria K. Vanderhorst (nearly 50 years of experience) about why boys may show a broader emotional range, how parents and culture unintentionally shut that down.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:
    ✅ Why “stop crying” teaches boys it’s not safe to feel

    ✅ How over-scheduling + screens reduce social-emotional growth

    ✅ What healthy emotional development in boys actually looks like

    ✅ How to support men’s emotions without fixing, defending, or shutting them down

    ✅ 5 practical parenting shifts to raise boys who can connect, communicate, and thrive
