I Used to Be That Guy: How Sean Escaped Red Pill & Toxic Alpha Male Culture

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2436759/fan_mail/new] Sean is back. You might remember him from last year's episode. Sean has been vocal about red pill culture and toxic masculinity, and in this episode he gets completely honest about it. He was that guy. The one who bought into the alpha male mentality, who had damaging views about women, and who chased money and status thinking it would make him happy. It didn't. Now he's doing the work. He talks openly about what pulled him into that world, what it cost him, and what finally made him walk away. He's not here to lecture anyone — he's here because he knows there are young men right now sitting in the same algorithm he was trapped in, and he wants them to actually see it for what it is. This is one of the most honest conversations we've had on Rated Gen Z. And honestly, it might be one of the most important ones too. Rated Gen Z is hosted by Raquel Borras — documentary filmmaker, youth advocate, and founder of Raqvision LLC. powered by raqvision [https://www.raq.vision] If you'd like to become a guest on Rated Gen Z, visit raq.vision to learn more.
