Elliott Rae On Re-writing How We Raise Our Boys

Today's episode is quite possibly our absolute favourite conversation we've ever had!We are joined by Elliott Rae to talk about something that’s been quietly worrying so many parents: how we’re raising boys in today’s world.From the lack of positive role models to the pressure on boys to “man up” before they even understand their own feelings, Elliott shares why so many young boys are struggling and what we can actually do differently. Together, they explore how to raise emotionally healthy boys, how mums and dads can encourage openness and vulnerability, and why changing the way we talk to our sons now can shape the men they become later.This is an honest, thoughtful and empowering conversation for anyone raising a boy and for anyone who wants the next generation to grow up kinder, more emotionally aware, and truly confident in who they are.Find a new episode every Tuesday & Friday and in the meantime check out Made By Mammas on Instagram: @madebymammas.Made By Mammas® is an Audio Always production.
