    About the Book

    Edit

    “I want to be present, to love more fully, to feel at peace in my own skin — so why does it still feel like I’m failing as a man?”

    What if the model we were given for manhood was never built for wholeness?

    In The Possible Man, psychologist and sociologist João Vaz invites you into a deeply honest and intimate exploration of masculinity beyond the clichés. This is not a book about how to “man up” or perform strength—it’s a call to tenderness, embodiment, and relational courage.

    Through real stories, therapeutic insights, and scientific grounding, João deconstructs the silent pressures that many men carry—from emotional repression to inherited models of control, shame, and fear. Drawing on his work across eight countries and in hundreds of therapeutic men’s gatherings, João challenges the myth that vulnerability is weakness and offers an alternative: a masculinity rooted in connection, sensitivity, and truth.

    The Possible Man is for those who:
    • Feel emotionally disconnected despite “having it all”
    • Were taught to be calm when inside they’re holding rage or grief
    • Want to parent, love, and lead from a place of authenticity

    In this heartfelt and powerful book, you will explore:
    • How intergenerational wounds shape modern masculinity
    • Why control is often mistaken for emotional regulation
    • How the body holds untold stories—and how to listen to them
    • The difference between fear-based silence and ethical listening
    • Practices to access tenderness, self-compassion, and embodied presence
    • Why men’s healing is not just personal—but political and spiritual
    • Four key pillars to reinvent masculinity today: body, language, relationship, and culture

    Whether you’re a man longing for something deeper, a parent raising boys in a changing world, or someone walking beside men on their healing journeys, this is not a manual. It’s a mirror and a reminder: the man we’re trying to become might already be possible.
