Dr. Brendan K. Hartman is a sociologist and consultant specializing in the social-emotional development and wellbeing of boys and men—and how this connects to the wellbeing of all genders. He works with schools, organizations, and families across North America, equipping educators, parents, and leaders to more effectively support boys and young men and navigate gender-related challenges with confidence and care. Brendan holds a Ph.D. in Education from the University of Edinburgh and teaches as a sessional instructor at the University of the Fraser Valley. Key Topics: ⭐ The crisis of purpose and meaning for modern men leaving the restrictive "man box" ⭐ The appeal of "red-pill" content and its link to male optimism and a clear, black-and-white life path ⭐ The psychological journey of masculinity: from Order, through Disorder, to a healthy Reorder ⭐ Brendan's three pillars for a redefined masculinity: Build Safety, Show Up, and Give a Damn ⭐ The paradox of choice and feeling overwhelmed when rigid masculine rules are dismantled ⭐ How confidence and "owning" your authentic interests builds respect and personal power ⭐ Parenting boys and having "emotional vaccinations" to prepare them for social pressures and bullying ⭐ The deep loneliness experienced by boys and men, even within friend groups ⭐ The difference between "fitting in" by contorting yourself and "belonging" by being truly seen ⭐ The "Trauma Triangle" (villain, victim, hero) and how it fuels online gender wars ⭐ Examining the four core emotional fears (alone, unloved, disrespected, inadequate) underlying male behavior ⭐ Deconstructing the myth of a static "traditional masculinity" and how its definition has always shifted ⭐ The danger of pointing to external, unchangeable factors (like looks or feminism) as the sole source of problems Connect With David - The Authentic Man: Instagram: <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/theauthenticman_/">https://www.instagram.com/theauthenticman_/</a> Website: <a href= "https://www.theauthenticman.net/">https://www.theauthenticman.net/</a> For Coaching: <a href= "mailto:hello@theauthenticman.net">hello@theauthenticman.net</a> Newsletter: <a href= "https://www.theauthenticman.net/home-subscribe">https://www.theauthenticman.net/home-subscribe</a> Connect With Brendan Hartman Website: https://remasculine.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/re.masculine/?hl=bg LinkedIn: https://ca.linkedin.com/in/brendankhartman
