Summary:
"Terry Crews spent decades cultivating his bodybuilder physique and bravado. On the outside, he seemed invincible: he escaped his abusive father, went pro in the NFL, and broke into the glamorous world of Hollywood. But his fixation with appearing outwardly
tough
eventually turned into an exhausting performance in which repressing his emotions let them get the better of him -- leading him into addiction and threatening the most important relationships in his life. Now Crews is sharing the raw, never-before-told story of his quest to find the
true
meaning of toughness. In
Tough
, he examines arenas of life where he desperately sought control -- masculinity, shame, sex, experiences with racism, and relationships -- and recounts the setbacks and victories he faced while uprooting deeply ingrained toxic masculinity and finally confronting his insecurities, painful memories, and limiting beliefs. The result is not only the gripping story of a man's struggle against himself and how he finally got his mind right, but a bold indictment of the cultural norms and taboos that ask men to be outwardly
tough
while leaving them inwardly weak. With
Tough
, Crews's
journey
of transformation offers a model for anyone who considers themselves a '
tough
guy' but feels unfulfilled; anyone struggling with procrastination or self-sabotage; and anyone ready to achieve
true
, lasting self-mastery."--Publisher.
