060- Michael King Jr. is an American licensed mental health therapist and author who specializes in working with men. He enables clients to deal with trauma, heal through self examination, build solid relationships, develop healthy masculinity, recover from breakups, reduce anger, and manage anxiety. Michael utilizes cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness practices with his clients and is licensed in Maryland and the District of Columbia. 

Thomas and Michael discuss the idea of the “man box”, internal pressure to provide for family, how men need to take an active role in ending racism, how white people can examine and challenge their implicit bias, and what Juneteenth represents.
