The most powerful action to take when feeling powerless is to acknowledge the truth of one's current situation.

“The most powerful thing we can do when feeling powerless is admit what is true. Because so often I'm afraid of being lonely and I already am. I'm afraid things are going to change. They've already changed. Fear wastess air.”

Engaging with reflective prompts and literature can help men, who may be resistant to seeking help, explore their own humanity and truth.

“I think for at least for a lot of the people that I sit with, particularly men who are not inclined necessarily to ask for help or hey, you know, I'm going to I'm going to get this done. I'm going to go it alone. Um I'm not sure that it's always so clear what is true or what help is required.”

Self-knowledge is an essential requirement for self-love, and it necessitates spending quality time with oneself.

“You can't love yourself if you don't know yourself. And you can't know yourself if you don't spend any time with yourself.”
