Foreword by Charlotte Fox Weber, psychotherapist, writer and co-founder of Examined Life. We live in a super-connected world, yet men specifically, struggle to connect and share. This is changing. . . but not quickly enough. Award-winning podcaster Alex Holmes sets out to accelerate this shift, debunking lingering myths around masculinity, love and connection by exploring what causes this sense of loneliness. Starting with ' Real Man Myths' and features designed to encourage us to open up and share, Alex motivates us to move from: - Ignoring to Acknowledging. - Being Closed to Opening Up. - Can' t to Can. - Avoiding to Embracing. - Expecting to Accepting. Sharing his experiences on his podcast and as a young British black man, Time to Talk is a love letter to all the men who have lost their way and to the women that love them.
' The most important journey we must all take is the journey from our head to our heart and I honour Alex for his contribution in creating a safe space for men to do so. Thank you Alex!' -- Richie Bostock, The Breath Guy ' An invaluable primer for young men seeking a sense of identity and making sense of the world . . . [Time to talk] is a timely and courageous offering' -- Malcolm Stern, co-founder ' Alternatives' , psychotherapist and author of Slay Your Dragons with Compassion ' A thoughtful, honest, helpful book on mental health, masculinity myths and the problem with ' manning up' . Alex has created a much needed space of community and compassion. A wonderful book on a topic that will help us all' -- Emma Gannon, writer, broadcaster and bestselling author ' I long for a world in which all men are as curious, brave, and rigorous in the work of exploring and tending to their mental landscape, as Alex Holmes is. I believe reading this beautiful, thoughtful book will gently guide men who want to start that journey' -- Henry James Garrett, illustrator and author of This Book Will Make You Kinder ' A timely and truly important book that will no doubt help countless men' -- Shahroo Izadi, Behavioural Change specialist and author of The Kindness Method ' A really important book that every man should read. An extremely honest and vulnerable exploration of what it means to be a man with some excellent advice and tips on how we can evolve to a more positive form of masculinity. I absolutely loved it' -- Daniele Fiandaca, co-founder of Utopia & Token Man ' A wonderful read, full of such insight and wisdom. We need role models like Alex to shift the landscape of what it means to be a man. Time To Talk offers an opportunity to redefine masculinity for the modern world' -- Jonny Benjamin, MBE ' Powerful read . . . We all could benefit from Alex' s wisdom and advice' * The Frank Bruno Foundation *
