@@RaMahUganda 😮 so crazy you're saying that because I just finished journaling at the same time you sent this. I haven't been consistent but I decided to start today. And it was a whole therapy session. Let me tell you 😂
Belief NEEDS to also be a male counselor for BLACK MEN! The way he allows and kind of “tricks” these men to be vulnerable and they open up and really express themselves is beautiful. I feel like he is the perfect gateway to help US ( black women) understand them (black men) because he did the WORK in understanding his wife! He is the perfect moderator! He doesn’t talk much but when he does YOU listen!
i completely agree i’ve been watching & growing up his family for years. he is my role model & who i look up to as a black teenager with no father in his life. he inspires me & shows me exactly how to be the best husband, father & man i know i will and can become. growing up i never had an example of black love. i was raised by a single mother with the help of my aunts & my sisters. i never had anyone to teach me what a man looks like, how to take care of a family & be present but instead i taught myself what he shouldn’t. I decided i would always be there for my family no matter what because he wasn’t there for me. i didn’t exactly how i would be there to play to my role as a father since i didn’t have one but glen/beleaf has been able to show me & i continue to learn so much from him
Omg.. I LOVED the part where he’s speaking about “I am free” because his father showed affection & STILL does! As a mental health therapist & study of psychology & the brain, we have to understand when you open the brain of a female & a male, there’s ONLY a 10% difference… We’ve created entire societal norms based on TEN percent difference. Both male & female children need similar things. And I love that his father showed so much affection & he was raised in love & not survival, just because he was a boy.
They need to give this series more time!!! it's so interesting to hear black men talk and have these thought-provoking conversations about all of these different subjects.
Wow. I've experienced this thing as well...I'm a two time Boy Mommy, right. I'm pretty uncomfortable with people being in my person space but I have SUPER affectionate boys. I, too, had to learn to let the hugs linger a little longer because they need that...hell, I might need it as well. I have NEVER heard anyone else speak on this until this video. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to you Kings. Thank you 🙏🏽👑
This is my favorite episode so far on the Men's Round Table and I love all of them just to be clear. I just appreciate the collective gentleness that I feel from all of these men here. Also, the openness in these honest topics. Which the episode could have lasted longer. Great job brothers. We need this and more of. Thank you
Love this, also as a black gay man, lemme say we do face a few different challenges but we're black men first our struggles aren't foreign I just want straight black men to fully understand that.
The vulnerability…..Beleaf is doing an awesome job! I love how open these men are! Oh to be a fly on the wall! Once shy Black Love, I need a part two! Cause you can tell they were about to take off! Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤
The Power of this conversation is beyond great, it allows everyone a look inside at how mature men show up in the world. I have had this same conversation on my podcast The Survival Kit to Adulthood Podcast episode life Vs. Man
I love listening to my black men speaking on love and all the other things ur talking about I'm so proud as a mother as a black mother listening to these mentors Back in my days the word Gay ment happy and that was in the early 70s I love u all🙏🙋
Personally I'M thankful for Yall Men / Brothers in Manhood to make this CONTENT. Which now I'm just getting notice of this comparison to other Positive still Black Men Improvement Commercial Awareness. Which need more exposure and coverage. We / Me as the gatekeeper my family development & Improvement. It's a strong stand in pulling our mental resources together with respect for OURSELVES as solid whole. I'm currently 51yrs old presently divorced father of 1 adopted of 5 because dating their Mothers. My fathering development became uncontrollable in a positive manner still to this day. It's A great think and to share with others Men our Positives Openly
Why do these episodes always ends when the conversations are getting really good? I've watched 3 episodes in a row and it's the same thing. is it possible to make them longer or have them in multiple parts
28:59 as soon as this man started speaking HIS Truth, he stopped stuttering, you can noticed the "You Know" getting lesser and lesser, something happens when we speak our truth, we become comfortable in who we are, we become grounded. its deep
I am just basking in this as a single mother with a son your comments about finding a bond with him! You made it important to you, and he felt your intention and pure love. I love this I have to share this I hope my tribe listens
Masculinity isn't a monolith for who men are. Masculinity is always Subjective and NOT Objective. I fought against this type of THINKING all my life! I kept hearing what a man is, and i NEVER fitted that category, so, what the hell am I then. I used to ask God, WHYYY, why you made me like THIS, because I don't fit-in.... Until God showed me that I was FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE! Now that i know who I am, I'm untouchable on many levels, and I'm free from Man-Made ideology of WHO or WHAT i should be, beside just BEING who God made ME to be💪🏽. No man or woman can define masculinity for anyone.... #BeYouBeFree💪🏽
I LOVE everything about this conversation! I don't see any toxic masculinity within the Convo, but some of them have been raised in a bit of toxic masculinity. MASCULINITY is beautiful. Femininity is beautiful, Toxicity is that other element of life that are Man-Made and goes against God/Nature's design .... Ex: Men don't cry😐, well, why in the hell did God give men tears😐. That Man-Made ideology is UNNATURAL. As humans, we mostly hurt ourselves with UNREALISTIC expectations for manhood and womanhood... That's why so many people struggle with this, because, what POPULAR society is telling them, ISN'T who they are. So now, they are trying to be this FAKE MAN OR WOMAN, in order to FIT-in so people won't give them💩 for being themselves.
I love these video’s… Imwith the first video I was like.. “ wait.. is this meant for men or for everybody ?!” But I do enjoy watching it.. like getting another perspective.. and I’m listening and taking it all in🤩 👍🏾
I wish my kids, especially my oldest son, could have experienced this level of manhood growing up. This level is just rare. As women you can only teach your sons how to show up in the world from the perspective of what we see and what we don’t like from men we’ve experienced. But the emotional attachment from a male figure will still be missing at the end of the day. Instilling confidence in my son was important. Being a protector of his sister were important. Making eye contact and a firm hand shake were important and a must for him to know. Granted he listen but it would have been great had his own dad been that influential to him. But it’s not all bad, he’s in school to be a doctor, however still to this day, he wants a dad.
Hello! I really appreciate the content of your channel. The only thing for me is, I want to share, however, with the alcohol glasses on the table and him trying to sustain a staying from alcohol, I cannot share this with him.😕
What is it with "stay at home Dad" ?? What in the what? Naw dawg... You are going to work! Stay at home nothing unless you are sick and disabled! Nope!!!
At home dad? @3:46 Women are not gods/ / goddess @12:25. And then allowing their bodies to perform an activity that only they can do (after receiving special deposit from their male partner) is not supernatural, it’s just natural. So don’t put any woman on a pedestal because of a biological activity that only she can perform. Both genders are equally valuable, but not equal purposes. @28:28 is in alignment with comments @12:30. And his real issue is growing up without a father. Don’t be an absentee parent. Understanding someone is required to love and respect him/her. This is another toxic conversation on love.
"cuz if anger is the thing you use to express this- what else are you feeling that you cant articulate" that's powerful.
Yes! I had to pause the video and sit on that for a minute.

When he said the first time I kissed my father at the photoshoot was profound because I didn’t want it to be at his funeral 😢 knocked me in my heart
Math being your connection. That’s a real addition.
I’m almost 15 minutes in and karega hasn’t said a word. I love his humility and willingness to listen.
I love how he takes it all in cause once he gets started…….🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Listening is a powerful Art.
Has he got a YT?
"I didn't want the first time that I kissed my father to be at his funeral." This hit me hard.
These conversations are so profound, and much needed! Thank you Kings for sharing.
This is an awesome conversation that I had to let my 15 year old son listen to on the drive to school.
Nahhhh they need to make these episodes longer and stop playing. It was getting so good!
