In this Movember series episode, I sat down with Ryan Reichert Estes—a coach, podcaster, and American living in Spain—to explore the intersections of masculinity, privilege, and the art of asking questions. Ryan shares his personal journey of self-discovery and his belief that curiosity is the bridge that connects us.
A key takeaway from Ryan: “If you don’t know how to talk to someone, just ask a question. ‘Tell me more about that’ is one of the most universal ways to show you care.” Together, we discussed:
The societal fear of getting masculinity “wrong” and how it shapes men’s interactions
Why vulnerability is not a weakness, but a vital tool for connection
The role of privilege in dismantling harmful systems and fostering equity
How asking better questions creates space for deeper conversations and understanding
Ryan’s perspective reminds us that men’s health—physical, mental, and emotional—is a human issue that impacts everyone. By leading with curiosity and compassion, we can redefine what it means to connect.
