Welcome to I’m Trying, Dude—a podcast by two friends figuring out what it really means to be comfortable in our own skin. We’re exploring a new, more open definition of masculinity, drawing from the ups and downs of relationships—whether with ourselves, partners, family, or friends. Along the way, we’ve stumbled, grown, sought therapy, and learned from mistakes (plenty of them). This isn’t about having all the answers—it’s about sharing the process. If you’ve ever felt like you’re struggling to keep it together, you’re not alone. We’re right there with you, figuring it out one day at a time.

Permission to Cry: Emotions and the Modern Man

For years, men have been told to "man up" and hold it in. But why? In this episode, Marcel and Daniel dive into the stigma around men crying, where it comes from, and why it’s time to let it go—literally. From childhood lessons about toughness to the science behind why crying is actually good for you, we’re breaking down what it really means to be strong.

🗣️ Topics We Cover:

Why men are told not to cry—and why that’s outdated The one tear rule vs. actually letting it out The paradox of vulnerability: Why we admire it in others but avoid it ourselves How repressed emotions affect mental and physical health Redefining “man up” for a new generation

📝 Challenge of the Week:
If you feel like crying, let it happen. No shame, no holding back—just let yourself feel.
