Send us a text In this episode of Aspire - The I Have the Right To Podcast , host Alex Prout, Co-Founder of I Have the Right To , joined by hosts and high school students Gabriel Viscogliosi and Hugh Eastman, explore the profound impact of fatherhood on masculinity. Together, they discuss how traditional roles shape men’s identities and the ways in which these norms can either strengthen or limit emotional expression. They examine the concept of socially constructed masculinity, and how generations of fathers have passed down expectations of being the unwavering provider and protector, often at the expense of vulnerability and genuine emotional connection. Alex reflects on his own father’s stoicism and how it has influenced his approach to fatherhood, emphasizing the importance of openness and authenticity with his children. Join us as we challenge outdated norms, encourage self-reflection, and inspire a new vision of fatherhood—one that fosters deeper relationships and a healthier, more inclusive perception of masculinity.
