Why Do I Feel Ashamed When I Cry?

Why does crying feel like weakness—especially for men? In this walk, we explore the shame so many carry around tears, emotion, and vulnerability. We talk about what happens when the dam breaks, what it means to truly feel, and how meeting yourself beneath the shame can become the beginning of real healing. Whether you’ve already cried or haven’t let yourself in years, this one is for you.
