In this episode of Good Inside, Dr. Becky talks with bestselling author and mental health expert Dr. John Delony about the utility trap — the pressure many men feel to always be useful, fix problems, and provide solutions, often at the expense of emotional connection. John shares his own experiences as a dad learning to step out of “fix-it mode” and into emotional presence, vulnerability, and attunement. If you’ve ever felt stuck in the role of provider or problem-solver, or you’re parenting with someone who is, this conversation is a powerful invitation to redefine what it really means to show up.Get the Good Inside App by Dr. Becky: <a href="https://bit.ly/4fSxbzk">https://bit.ly/4fSxbzk</a>Follow Dr. Becky on Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/drbeckyatgoodinside">https://www.instagram.com/drbeckyatgoodinside</a>Sign up for our weekly email, Good Insider: <a href="https://www.goodinside.com/newsletter">https://www.goodinside.com/newsletter</a>For a full transcript of the episode, go to <a href="http://goodinside.com/podcast">goodinside.com/podcast</a>.As parents, the mental load is real—to-do lists, doctor’s appointments, sports practices, work events, birthday parties… Should I keep going?
