EP 226: Interviewing Andrew Tate, the Hollywood Myth and Why Men Are Lonely, Misunderstood, and Full of Shame

In this profound and emotionally charged episode, I sit down with David Sutcliffe — actor turned therapist — to explore the deeper psychological wounds that most men carry in silence.

We unpack David’s personal descent from Hollywood fame into emotional collapse, his groundbreaking work in emotional mastery, and his now-viral interviews with Andrew Tate. Together, we explore the roots of male shame, emotional repression, and why so many modern men feel lonely, unseen, and misunderstood.
