Join me, Amrita Sandhu, RCC, as I sit down with Sunny Chopra of @sunnyccoaching to dive into the complexities of toxic masculinity and the impact it has on men and boys. Sunny bravely shares his own experiences with childhood trauma and his journey to becoming a mental health coach and advocate. We also explore the role of alcohol as a coping mechanism and the dangers it poses. If you’re struggling with sobriety or know someone who is, check out these resources:
