  <title>Phil Goldstein shares his perspective and poetry </title>
  <description>“I like to think that I grew up in a relatively progressive area of the country… but I definitely, by osmosis, absorbed the cultural expectations and ideas of what a man is and should be, and it was definitely not somebody who’d been sexually abused or taken advantage of. And I think that was another factor inhibiting me from talking about it - just not wanting to deal with the consequent shame and humiliation that I’m sure would have come.” &amp;amp;nbsp; Phil is a poet, journalist, and content marketer whose debut poetry collection, How to Bury a Boy at Sea, will be published by Stillhouse Press on April 5th, 2022 and is available for pre-order (see his website or direct link below). His poetry has been nominated for a Best of the Net award and has appeared in or is forthcoming in The Laurel Review, Rust + Moth, Two Peach, 2River View, Awakened Voices, The Indianapolis Review and elsewhere. He currently lives in Alexandria, Va., with his wife, Jenny, and their animals: a dog named Brenna, and two cats, Grady and Princess. &amp;amp;nbsp; -------------------------------------------- SUBSCRIBE to the show to be the first to hear about new episodes! &amp;amp;nbsp; Contact Phil: https://www.philagoldstein.com/ Twitter: @philgoldstein IG: @philagoldstein FB: https://www.facebook.com/philgoldsteinpoet/ &amp;amp;nbsp; Pre-order Phil’s book, How to Bury a Boy at Sea:  https://www.stillhousepress.org/stillhouse-store/how-to-bury-a-boy-at-sea &amp;amp;nbsp; Phil’s book upcoming events (including DC and Chicago, as well as virtual): https://www.philagoldstein.com/book-events &amp;amp;nbsp; Contact Molly: www.theembodyconnection.com&amp;amp;nbsp;// molly@theembodyconnection.com &amp;amp;nbsp; -------------------------------------------- Special thanks to: &amp;amp;nbsp; Jenn Baykan, virtual assistant for creatives: https://www.jbaykan.com/ &amp;amp;nbsp; Dave Hiltebrand for intro and outro music original composition:&amp;amp;nbsp;https://www.davehiltebrand.com/ &amp;amp;nbsp; Gina McLaughlin Photography for photo and graphic design:&amp;amp;nbsp;https://www.facebook.com/ginamclaughlinphotography/?fref=tag </description>
