There is one thing standing between you and the man you SHOULD be: The Mask of Masculinity. Howes moved his competitive spirit from sport to business, turning his podcast, The School of Greatness, into a global hit and becoming greatly successful. Howes grew up, like so many people, to be furious, disappointed, and still to pursue something that never was enough. Howes started a private quest at the age of 30 to seek inner peace and expose the many masks that people wear young and old: by seeking advice from many of the greatest therapists, psychiatrists, and household names in the world, such as Tony Robbins, Alanis Morissette, and Ray Lewis. Throughout The Mask of Masculinity, Howes reveals the inherent hypocrisy of the Material Mask, the man who chases money above all things; the cowering insecurity that lies behind the Joker and Stoic Masks of men who never reveal true emotions; and the destructiveness of the Invincible and Aggressive Masks worn by men who take risks or can never back down from a fight. He explains men how to break down the barriers that hold back them and shows women how to understand men deeper in their lives. It’s not easy, but it’s an odyssey of self-discovery that all modern men should make if you want to love, be loved, and lead a good life.
