Shownotes

On Mind Over Masculinity, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Dr. Albert Charles Bramante—talent agent–turned–psychology PhD, certified hypnotist, and NLP practitioner—to unpack the cultural script that tells men to “man up.” We examine how suppression shows up as isolation, substance misuse, aggression, and burnout—and why vulnerability is a performance advantage in leadership, relationships, and creative work. We also reframe legacy: not a trophy at the end of life, but a daily practice of aligned choices. If you’re ready to trade applause for alignment and toughness for truth, this conversation maps a practical path forward for men’s mental health, resilience, and purpose.

 

About the guest  :

Dr.Albert Charles Bramante bridges performance and psychology. After two decades guiding actors to the stage and screen, he earned a PhD in Psychology, adding hypnosis and NLP to his toolkit. He helps high performers rewire outdated narratives about masculinity, regulate emotions, and prevent burnout—without losing ambition.

 

Key takeaways:

  • “Man up” costs connection. Suppressing emotions doesn’t erase them; it compounds into isolation, aggression, or numbing behaviors—then erupts under pressure.

  • Vulnerability is strength. Modern leadership rewards emotional honesty, not stoicism. Naming fear or grief reduces reactivity and improves decision quality.

  • Anger often masks sadness. For many men, unprocessed depression presents as irritability or control. Skill: pause, label the feeling, choose a response.

  • Busy ≠ productive. Burnout is not a badge. Rest, hobbies, vacations, and boundaries are performance tools, not perks.

  • Reframe resilience. Resilience isn’t “never break”; it’s break → repair → renew with practices like journaling, honest conversations, and recovery rituals.

  • Legacy is daily. Meaning comes from consistent, values-aligned choices—how you show up to work, family, and self—starting today.

  • Starter move. Do one honest act now: call a friend, write one page, or book support. Momentum beats perfection.
