"Actor (Jane the Virgin), director (Five Feet Apart), and well-known social activist (Wayfarer) Justin Baldoni is boldly taking on the issues of toxic masculinity. He tackles his own struggles and brings up previously unspoken taboos to help create a new understanding and system of accountability. It is not just about becoming better men, but becoming more human. Topics will include redefining masculinity, female empowerment, relationships, violence and abuse, sex and sexuality, infidelity, body image, work-life balance, and fatherhood.
