The Live Your Life Podcast

“How not to be an A*ss: Essays on being a Good and Safe Man” is the name of the book written by Andrew Bauman that inspired this podcast episode. In it, Andrew shares his own personal story of his own emotional pain drove him to be what he calls an "a*ss" and how he chose to find a path out of that way of living. He also shares many stories of men he has observed and worked with, and how men can come to breaking conscious and unconscious behaviors that lead to the mistreatment of women because of their own stories of shame. This a wonderful book and an invitation for men and women to seek healthier relationships.
