#78 | Understanding Masculine and Feminine Principles PT 2

Season 1 · Episode 78

Monday, February 3, 2025 • Duration

I left off in PT 1 with the understanding that yin/yang principles precede us as humans. When they are functioning harmoniously, life thrives but when that harmony is severed there is a lot of disfunction.

In this episode I get deeper into those two principles and what they are made of. Listen in for a partner dance analogy that explains what happens when things are out of place, why femininity can’t thrive without a masculine container, understanding the bell curve of masculinity and femininity, and some great examples out on the world of masculine and feminine harmony.

#77 | Understanding Masculine and Feminine Principles PT 1

Season 1 · Episode 77

Monday, January 27, 2025 • Duration

“Beauty is the harmony of purpose and form.” Scandinavian architect and designer Alvor Aalto, 1928

I love this quote because to me it represents the perfect harmony of yin and yang, yin being form and yang being function. Masculinity brings order, logic, and effectiveness while femininity fosters connection, intuition, and feeling. When one is missing we lose balance.

In this episode I start exploring why masculinity is the foundation upon which femininity thrives and why its absence is unraveling society. I talk about Zuckerberg’s comments on masculinity and corporate culture, a story about a workshop I hosted that paints the picture about the differences between men and women, the 99% of good men in the world that are often ignored, why we started to push away from femininity in the west, and more.

#68 | Differentiating Attraction Versus Bonding Between Men and Women

Season 1 · Episode 68

Monday, November 25, 2024 • Duration

In this episode I share a high level overview of the different ways that men and women experience attraction and pair bonding based on their respective hormones. I discuss the foundational pull between the masculine and feminine poles and how the instinctual desires men and women have are related to the hormones they release at different times within dating and mating. I highlight the core four hormones: serotonin, dopamine, oxytocin, and vasopressin. I also address the perception that men do not desire commitment and get into what’s really happening in those situations.

#67 | Is There a Natural Hierarchy Between Men and Women?

Season 1 · Episode 67

Monday, November 18, 2024 • Duration

In this episode I dissect the meaning behind some hot-button words like hierarchy, authority, and patriarchy to showcase that many of our misunderstandings are a product of nomenclature discrepancies and misinterpretations, not malicious intent.

Danish Author Tor Nørretranders has an important insight in his work, The User Illusion, about how as humans we feel more than we know and we know more than we can say. Therefore based on the fact that what is said is a tiny fraction of a larger picture of feeling, misinterpretations happen so easily and consistently.

Based on that I get into some important questions including is hierarchy and authority a bad thing? a good thing? How do we interpret this?

#66 | What’s Behind the Perception that Men ‘Lack Concern’?

Season 1 · Episode 66

Monday, November 11, 2024 • Duration

In a recent study out of the Czech Republic, it’s reported that women are envious of men for their ‘lack of concern’(among other things). I recently had a few women mention to me that they feel so anxious all the time , meanwhile their partners seem to not be carrying as much ‘mental load.’

What’s actually going on here? It’s definitely not lack of concern. It all comes back to our differences as hunters versus gatherers. Women often experience heightened anxiety do to the way their brains constantly pull them in different direction, whereas men are focused and linear aiming for and executing one task at a time. I reframe some of the misconceptions women have about men and share some practical ways men and women can communicate more effectively.

#65 | How Does a Man Access His Zone of Genius?

Season 1 · Episode 65

Monday, November 4, 2024 • Duration

Hello - I am back with a solo episode and alas we have timestamps. Very excited to officially have those moving forward for all episodes, I know a few of the listeners have been asking.

This episode is an introduction to the masculine spiritual awakening and how a man can find his greatest sense of satisfaction and fulfillment. I utilize the yin/yang to showcase the four step process and how it works.

When done correctly this is the path towards:

A man’s purpose and potential

The relationships he deeply desires

Ultimately building his legacy

and it’s all about feminine integration because without that, the masculine cannot be his most potent self.

#64 | Can men truly be vulnerable without being judged?

Season 1 · Episode 64

Monday, October 28, 2024 • Duration

The answer is yes - if men have two extremely important factors intact in their lives before being vulnerable. This is really important. Lots of men that talk to me say that vulnerability is hard for them to understand without the fear of being judged. They genuinely cannot foresee expressing vulnerability because in the past they have had it weaponized against them or the woman in question has lost attraction for them.

In this episode I try to highlight a few blind spots that can help paint the bigger picture of what being vulnerable with women can look like in a healthy way (and what might have been missing when vulnerability did not go well in the past).

#63 | Subscriber Q&A: Female happiness, friendships, and Jealousy

Season 1 · Episode 63

Monday, October 21, 2024 • Duration

This is my first subscriber Q&A. I have a wonderful community of gentlemen that asked fantastic questions. For those that don’t know I do transformational coaching for men so most of my engaged community are gentlemen (with plenty of ladies listening to the podcast too). I go for about twenty minutes for this one, but will make them slightly longer moving forward to have time to answer more questions.

The three questions that I cover here are:

What is jealousy in relationships? What causes it? Is it normal to feel jealous? How can a man overcome these feelings?

What is absolute happiness for a woman?

Can you connect with a lot of modern day women on a personal level? Considering what you share is not synonymous with most women nowadays, do you feel they are not your tribe as you have less in common?

#62 | What the Patriarchy Actually Is - and Why We Need It

Season 1 · Episode 62

Monday, October 14, 2024 • Duration

I challenge the mainstream narrative surrounding ‘The Patriarchy’ and argue that its true essence is largely misunderstood. I explore what the Patriarchy actually is? How I see it from a female perspective? and What the true cause of dissatisfaction for both women and men is?

I explore how by embracing the benevolent patriarch, we can all better connect to our purpose, our harmony, and divine design as men and women.

#61 | Understanding the 5 Life Stages of Men

Season 1 · Episode 61

Monday, October 7, 2024 • Duration

We know men are one task at a time people and though this is true on a micro scale, it’s just as true in the macro. What’s important to a man changes five times in his life and in this short episode I break down the five stages and what’s most important about them.

I get into what men are prioritizing, what they want, and what they can provide in each of the life stages. I also share anecdotes we can all relate to and showcase how women can best support the men in their lives based on which stage they are in.
