Dr. Mills sits down with journalist and author Jordan Ritter Conn to explore the emotional lives, hidden struggles, and evolving identities of modern American men. Drawing from his deeply reported new book American Men, Conn shares the stories of four vastly different men — from a closeted fighter and a haunted Army veteran to a trans man navigating life in the Rust Belt — and examines how masculinity, loneliness, vulnerability, and the pursuit of power shape their lives. The conversation dives into why men so often struggle to open up, the emotional scripts many inherit from childhood, and what happens when men begin to dispense with those scripts. Along the way, they reflect on friendship, fatherhood, therapy, emotional honesty, and whether today’s American men are truly “all right” — or simply trying their best to become so.
