Listeners who know Justin Baldoni from his role as the hot and sensitive Rafael in the acclaimed TV series “Jane the Virgin” will get to know the actor in a deeper way as he “undefines” masculinity in this audiobook. In doing so, the actor takes on gender equality, marriage, racism, fatherhood, sex, vulnerability, and more. He acknowledges the discomforts of masculinity and shares his personal journey, which is full of universal questions. Baldoni’s delivery underlines every emotion. He chuckles to himself as he recalls a time he reasoned away his instincts, caving to peer pressure. His voice lowers with disappointment at his past behavior and becomes small as he shares an embarrassing memory. He sets his intention early on for the audiobook to feel like a conversation between friends, and he achieves it. A.L.C. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine
From the Publisher
Man Enough filled my heart with courage to do and be better. Oozing truth and love this book was absolutely necessary for me to read. If you’re like me and searching for a push in the right direction… you’ve found it.” — Shawn Mendes
"In a world drowning in harmful ideas about masculinity, Man Enough is the life raft we desperately need. Wise, vulnerable, trustworthy, and hilarious, this book will liberate lives, redeem relationships, and help carry us all to higher ground." — Glennon Doyle, New York Times bestselling author of Untamed, Founder of Together Rising
“Man Enough takes us on an intensely personal yet universal journey as Justin Baldoni explores how the messages of masculinity have shaped him individually and us collectively. His brave reflections invite us into our own stories with more empathy, compassion, and freedom for ourselves and for the men in our lives. This book shines a needed light on our inherent self-worth and what it truly means to be man enough.” — Jay Shetty, New York Times bestselling author of Think Like A Monk
“This is the most important addition to the conversation around masculinity in a decade because it is solution based and allows everyone access to this conversation in a safe way. Justin is masterful in encouraging and guiding men in consciously examining their own masculinity and how it's affecting their lives and the world around them by being transparent and vulnerable about his own growth.” — Karamo Brown, TV Host & star of Netflix’s Queer Eye
"Rather than “redefining” masculinity, which merely sets new limits and expectations, Baldoni’s approach of “undefining” creates more space for men (and everyone else) to fully be themselves." — Donald Collins, Healthline
