An insightful, candid, and inspiring memoir from Karamo Brown - Queer Eye’s beloved culture expert - as he shares his story for the first time, exploring how the challenges in his own life have allowed him to forever transform the lives of those in need. When Karamo Brown first auditioned for the casting directors of Netflix’s Queer Eye, he knew he wouldn’t win the role of culture expert by discussing art and theater. Instead, he decided to redefine what “culture” could - and should - mean for the show. He took a risk and declared, “I am culture.”

Every day we experience the uncertainty, risks, and emotional exposure that define what it means to be vulnerable or to dare greatly. Based on 12 years of pioneering research, Dr. Brené Brown dispels the cultural myth that vulnerability is weakness and argues that it is, in truth, our most accurate measure of courage. Brown explains how vulnerability is both the core of difficult emotions like fear, grief, and disappointment, and the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, empathy, innovation, and creativity.

In The Will to Change, bell hooks gets to the heart of the matter and shows men how to express the emotions that are a fundamental part of who they are - whatever their age, marital status, ethnicity, or sexual orientation.

Shetty grew up in a family where you could become one of three things - a doctor, a lawyer, or a failure. His family was convinced he had chosen option three: Instead of attending his college graduation ceremony, he headed to India to become a monk, to meditate every day for four to eight hours, and devote his life to helping others. After three years, one of his teachers told him that he would have more impact on the world if he left the monk’s path to share his experience and wisdom with others.

Lewis Howes grew up as an athlete. He was a two-sport All-American and went on to play football professionally. Howes then transferred his competitive nature from sports to business, building his podcast, The School of Greatness, into a global phenomenon. But his whole identity was built on misguided beliefs about what "masculinity" was: dangerous, false ideas learned from teammates and coaches in locker rooms and stereotypes in the media. Like so many men, Howes grew up to be angry, frustrated, and always chasing something that was never enough.

Gay Bar : A Review

Interview: Justin Baldoni Undefines What It Means to Be 'Man Enough'
Publisher's Summary
A gripping, fearless exploration of masculinity
The effects of traditionally defined masculinity have become one of the most prevalent social issues of our time. In this engaging and provocative new book, beloved actor, director, and social activist Justin Baldoni reflects on his own struggles with masculinity. With insight and honesty, he explores a range of difficult, sometimes uncomfortable topics including strength and vulnerability, relationships and marriage, body image, sex and sexuality, racial justice, gender equality, and fatherhood.
Writing from experience, Justin invites us to move beyond the scripts we’ve learned since childhood and the roles we are expected to play. He challenges men to be brave enough to be vulnerable, to be strong enough to be sensitive, to be confident enough to listen. Encouraging men to dig deep within themselves, Justin helps us reimagine what it means to be man enough and in the process what it means to be human.

Man Enough is honest, brave, and timely. This exploration of masculinity tackles body image, shame, insecurities, and a myriad of other topics that boys and men are traditionally discouraged from talking about. This book helps make space for understanding, empathy, honest conversation and the idea that you are enough. It is a must read.

Stop reading my review and START READING HIS BOOK
Breathtaking. I’m grateful that audible allows you to speed up the recording, because I just couldn’t eat this book up fast enough! I felt transformed into a way of thinking that, as a woman, I had no idea existed. I’ve always been hard hearted towards men that don’t show up emotionally, but hearing Justin’s memoirs taught me that under every man’s armor, there is a little boy in there longing to be loved. As someone who’s grown up in a household of self-sufficient women, it’s refreshing to hear Baldoni’s perspective on the value that women offer this world, without his intention being to belittle or undermine the male gender as a whole. We can all do better at loving ourselves and loving others. This book is a safe space to learn, ponder, and humbly decide what we as individuals can do to become the best versions of ourselves from the inside out. Now seriously, stop looking at reviews and download the dang book!! You won’t regret it.

IMPACTFUL & ENLIGHTENING
⭐⭐⭐⭐💫
Man Enough: Undefining My Masculinity by Justin Baldoni is a book that benefits all, not just men.
If you have males that you love and care about in your life, they need to read this book. Whether they are in high school, college, newlywed, or beyond; please get a copy of this book in their hands and encourage them to read and absorb these words.
As a mother to two sons I have often found myself at a loss for words or understanding when it comes to their ever evolving physical and emotional needs, wants, and turmoils; but in Justin's book he shines light on the fact that really, men aren't so different from women. Not when you truly look beyond all the layers of how society has told them them to think, feel, and act.
This book isn't about tearing down masculinity. It's about giving boys and young men the "okay" and support to truly be who they are inherently at their core; human. To lift them up and give them courage to say screw the narrative forced upon generations before them and truly believe that they are enough just as they are. That we are all enough.
I listened to this book via audio and felt Justin did a fantastic job. You can feel how much these words mean to him and the personal stories allow for an easily relatable read, no matter your gender.
My 14 year old son is currently reading my physical copy of the book and I plan on buying a copy for him to have so that he may visit these words in the future as he continues to mature into the man he will one day become. He is taking it in slowly, giving himself time to digest all the wonderful morsels and says that thus far he is really enjoying it.
I will be getting a third copy for my other son as well, but at just 9 years of age he still has a little while before I suggest that he reads it. In the meantime, I will take what I have read and make an effort to be more mindful of the narrative that I put forth to him of what it means to be man enough.

More than a book
Justin has done the work. Let me clarify, Justin has taken surrendered the idea of following the traditional social norms of being a man, and has invited his fellow peers to search for answers to what’s it like to be a man. This book isn’t one that tells you you have to this a specific way. Honestly he could have called it “Why man?” Asking why is a common theme throughout the book and although it seems simple, it’s what helped him guide his head to his heart. There are too many priceless points to share and ones I most likely missed my first time through, so I’m here to tell you to take the leap and listen to the human experience. Now allow me to start the book over :)

Wow!
This book will make you laugh, cry, think and feel all the feelings. I am buying this book for my two sons (20 and 22) and gifting it to them. They grew up with a not so present dad after our divorce when my youngest was 9 months old. So they only have my female perspective on life and what it is to be a good young man. I love my boys so much and I can only pray that they remember the good things I taught them and learn from mom’s very human mistakes. May they always know that they are “man enough” but most importantly that they are deeply and unconditionally loved and that they are “ENOUGH”. 💕🙏🏽💕

A rare glimpse into what it means to be a man
From a woman's perspective this is a rare glimpse into what it means to be a man and to grow up as one. We are surrounded by messaging and debates on what it means to be a woman, by feminist battles/issues/discourse, and I feel like I was lacking some of the context other side of the binary. This book gave me a first rare glimpse into manhood and I feel like it's helped me understand the men in my life better.

Not my cup of tea - Religious content
I bought this audiobook because I was interested in expanding my knowledge of the effects of traditionally defined masculinity in society. Even though it started well with some good examples of his personal life and some scientific research, unfortunately, Justin Baldoni scratches only the surface of the subject and insists in referring to his personal religious beliefs and quotes to get any point across. The religious monologue goes to new highlights when he talks about him finding his family in after life paradise and living happily ever after! Really?? This is almost an insult to my intelligence. For someone who was seeking to deep scientific explanations of the subject I was very disappointed and would not recommend.

Deep. Real deep.
I had high expectations for this book after watching Justin's pre-launch interviews. In a way, the book wasn't what I expected. But maybe that's because I'm not a man? I really loved some of the chapters but lost interest over a few too. As I said, he goes deep, really deep into issues associated with masculinity and perhaps I lost interest a but because it was not relevant to me? Overall I WOULD recommend this book to others. Men AND women need to hear this book and decide for themselves, what does it mean to BE A MAN? Love you Justin.

An enjoyable and thought-provoking listen
An honest and refreshing read that firstly explores (and then challenges) the expectations that men force on themselves to be 'enough'. Expectations that lead to isolation, insecurity, false-bravado, and overcompensation.
It's important to note that this book is not about discouraging masculinity, or beating-up on men, or generally virtue signalling. It's actually a book for men... that essentially says 'hey, all that stuff you don't talk about in case you seem less manly... yeah, we all do that... maybe give talking about it a try sometime'.
Justin discusses these topics with humour, insight, and a hearty helping of personal examples; and I found myself relating to a lot of his topics and examples on a deep level. I listened to the audiobook, at it was very much like having an honest conversation with a friend over a beer.
There were parts of the book that weren't for me - particularly some of the faith-based discussion; but these didn't detract from Justin's core messages.
Overall, an enjoyable and thought-provoking listen.

Must read for all men from puberty into adulthood
This book talks about delicate topics, makes you question your own manhood and how you define masculinity. It is very well written and even better read. You can hear his emotion when talking about his wife and kids or when he feels deeply passionate about the subject, or when he feels vulnerable.
Throw away your doubts about this book and do yourself a favour.

Man Enough
Thank you Justin for this wonderful insight of what it is like to be Man Enough. I have 2 teenage boys who I am raising and I can’t thank you enough for the raw insight of how to help them to believe in themselves and they are ENOUGH as they are!
Thank you from New Zealand. Love to you and your family. X

Man Enough is more than worthy of your time
Never have I reflected upon my own sense of masculinity more than after this book.
