Survival Masculinity Is Killing Men | The Truth About Broken Heart Syndrome

Описание: It's not a metaphor. Men are biologically twice as likely to die from what is clinically known as Broken Heart Syndrome (Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy). This isn't about weakness; it's about a critical overload of the nervous system.

In this episode of the Reforged Podcast, Scott Austin Martin unpacks the shocking data behind why men are more vulnerable to this fatal stress injury. He reveals how "Survival Masculinity"—the cultural training to suppress emotion, isolate, and "handle it"—leaves men’s bodies to carry a burden their nervous systems were never trained to process.

This isn't about men being "out of touch with their feelings." It's about a deadly gap in emotional regulation skills. When the system finally exceeds its capacity, it doesn't bend; it breaks catastrophically.

This episode is a vital health intervention for the modern man. You will hear about:

•The biology of a broken heart and how emotional shock becomes a physical injury.

•Why traditional masculinity is a liability, not a strength, when it comes to stress.

•The difference between healthy containment and toxic suppression.

•7 essential, trainable skills every man needs to learn to regulate his nervous system, prevent overload, and build true capacity.

This isn't about turning men into women. It's about teaching men the physiological skills required to survive and thrive in the modern world. Stop asking your body to absorb what your nervous system was never taught to process.
