“I like to think that I grew up in a relatively progressive area of the country… but I definitely, by osmosis, absorbed the cultural expectations and ideas of what a man is and should be, and it was definitely not somebody who’d been sexually abused or taken advantage of. And I think that was another factor inhibiting me from talking about it - just not wanting to deal with the consequent shame and humiliation that I’m sure would have come.”   Phil is a poet, journalist, and content marketer whose debut poetry collection, How to Bury a Boy at Sea, will be published by Stillhouse Press on April 5th, 2022 and is available for pre-order (see his website or direct link below). His poetry has been nominated for a Best of the Net award and has appeared in or is forthcoming in The Laurel Review, Rust + Moth, Two Peach, 2River View, Awakened Voices, The Indianapolis Review and elsewhere. He currently lives in Alexandria, Va., with his wife, Jenny, and their animals: a dog named Brenna, and two cats, Grady and Princess.   -------------------------------------------- SUBSCRIBE to the show to be the first to hear about new episodes!   Contact Phil: <a href= "https://www.philagoldstein.com/">https://www.philagoldstein.com/</a> Twitter: <a href= "https://twitter.com/philgoldstein">@philgoldstein</a> IG: <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/philagoldstein/">@philagoldstein</a> FB: <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/philgoldsteinpoet/">https://www.facebook.com/philgoldsteinpoet/</a>   Pre-order Phil’s book, How to Bury a Boy at Sea: <a href= "https://www.stillhousepress.org/stillhouse-store/how-to-bury-a-boy-at-sea"> https://www.stillhousepress.org/stillhouse-store/how-to-bury-a-boy-at-sea</a>   Phil’s book upcoming events (including DC and Chicago, as well as virtual): <a href= "https://www.philagoldstein.com/book-events">https://www.philagoldstein.com/book-events</a>   Contact Molly: www.theembodyconnection.com // <a href= "mailto:molly@theembodyconnection.com">molly@theembodyconnection.com</a>   -------------------------------------------- Special thanks to:   Jenn Baykan, virtual assistant for creatives: <a href= "https://www.jbaykan.com/">https://www.jbaykan.com/</a>   Dave Hiltebrand for intro and outro music original composition: <a href= "https://www.davehiltebrand.com/">https://www.davehiltebrand.com/</a>   Gina McLaughlin Photography for photo and graphic design: <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/ginamclaughlinphotography/?fref=tag">https://www.facebook.com/ginamclaughlinphotography/?fref=tag</a>
