[What Boys Need Series] Going Beyond “Boys Will Be Boys” - Dr. Judy Chu

Dr. Judy Y. Chu, educator and author of When Boys Become Boys, joins Hunter Clarke-Fields to explore how boys develop emotionally, socially, and relationally in a culture that often limits their expression. In this conversation, they discuss how societal expectations shape boys’ identities, the importance of relationships in their lives, and the ways boys can be supported to maintain empathy, emotional intelligence, and authentic connection. Dr. Chu shares research-based insights on fostering healthy resistance to rigid gender norms, nurturing emotional depth, and reimagining masculinity in ways that honor vulnerability, resilience, and caring relationships.
