East, West, and Everything Between

In this episode of It’s Okay, Man, I sit down with therapist Rula Zaghal to explore masculinity, femininity, and the spaces in between. From the concept of men as “the rock” in relationships to the pressures of cultural expectations, we dive into how gender roles, feminism, and safety shape the human experience.

Rula also brings a powerful perspective as a Palestinian woman, challenging Western assumptions about freedom, equality, and inclusion. Together, we uncover how history, colonization, and cultural narratives continue to shape the ways we see masculinity, femininity, and each other.

If you’ve ever questioned what masculinity really means, how culture impacts identity, or how therapy can create space for authenticity and healing, this episode will leave you with plenty to reflect on.
