TED Talk by Justin Baldoni: Why I’m Done Trying to Be “Man Enough”

In this talk delivered at TED Women 2017, Justin Baldoni describes his quest to redefine masculinity and to figure out ways to be not just a good man, but a good human. In this warm, personal talk, Justin shares his effort to reconcile who he is with who the world tells him a man should be.
