## Resource

I'm a Tough Construction Worker... But My Biggest Secret Is at the Spa A listener who spends his days working construction and getting covered in dirt reveals a secret nobody in his life knows. Every other Friday, he's getting mani-pedis, Botox, facials, red-light therapy, and following a detailed skincare routine. While he knows self-care helps him feel and look his best, he's convinced his coworkers would never let him live it down if they found out. He even keeps it hidden from women he dates because he's worried they'll judge him.Billy, Candice, and Producer Pooh discuss changing perceptions of masculinity, taking care of yourself, and whether men should feel embarrassed about investing in self-care.
