To be truly conscious, and to allow space for deep intimacy in Dominance and submission, we need to be connected to both our hearts AND our balls.

If we're all balls and no heart, there's no love present, and she won't ever trust us.

If we're all heart and no balls, there's no strength present, and she won't ever respect us.

Conscious Dominance is about leading from a place of wholeness in ourselves, and our ability to be tuned into our submissive allows us not only to lead her well...it opens us up to be able to receive her love.

This episode is one you won't want to miss. It pulls together so much of how this approach to Dom/sub relationships makes things better for both Dominants and submissives.

In this episode of Conscious Dominance, Eric shares the story of his recent surfing accident. And in a very honest, raw, and vulnerable conversation, we look into the ways that our roles as Dominants in our D/s relationships requires a high level of trustworthiness out of us. And this goes far beyond the basics of trust. In order for our submissives to fully surrender into us, they need to feel that they can trust us on every level. Down to the ways that we preserve, take care of and value ourselves...because if we don't take care of ourselves, it also shows our lack of respect for her and the dynamic. She can't let go into us if she can't trust that we'll be there for her. A submissive woman NEEDS her Dominant, and we take care of ourselves in part because we want to be able to be there to provide and protect her. We also get into how we build trust by the way we show up and respond to challenges, and why it's challenging for Dominant men to ask for help. This is the deepest and most vulnerable conversation we've ever had, and we truly hope you enjoy it.

Why Dominant men need to be vulnerable - Conscious Dominance Episode 8

In this episode, Andrew & Eric discuss the necessity, and challenges, of vulnerability as we live lives of Conscious Dominance.

While we may think of vulnerability as weakness, we explore the truth of the fact that it takes immense strength to be vulnerable. And the way that this vulnerability helps us show up in a more grounded, present strength.

We also look at how we can get out of our heads, how our triggers show us our weaknesses, and the importance of being connected with a truth that is bigger than us, among SO many other things.

If you've struggled with how emotions and vulnerability interact with Dominance as a man, or understanding Dominant men, this episode will be perfect for you!

How do we approach Dominance while respecting the intelligence, capability, and competence of our submissive?

This is the question we unpack in this episode of Conscious Dominance.

A woman who craves submission is often also incredibly talented and skilled in her life. When we take a woman inside of our consciousness, leading her and allowing her to follow, what we do with all of this capability and competence is something that must be addressed.

Because on one hand, she has likely leaned on and relied on her ability to get her through her life. But on the other hand, for many women, they want nothing more than to be able to let go of this need to take care of themselves.

So how do we lead in relationship with a woman who CAN do so much, and how do we help her to let go of the things that might drain, exhaust, and empty her...no matter how competent she is at them?

Taking on a Dominant role is about so much more than just telling a submissive what to do. It means taking on full and complete responsibility for our lives.

And there is nothing less Dominant than a man who is disorganized, disorderly, forgetful, and out of control.

We need a way to keep our lives, relationships, and the day to day under our control. We need to live proactively, rather than reactively. And in this episode, Andrew & Eric break down how they bring their lives into more structure and order with a systematic approach to life and Dominance.

Enjoy this conversation, it is full of both practical tips for Dominant men, and lots of nuance and depth around the very profound ways that these practicalities bring deeper intimacy and open up our submissive women to deeper trust and surrender.

In this episode, we discuss the value that we receive as Dominants in Dom/sub relationships when we encourage our submissive's expressions, rather than trying to shut her up, or shut her down. This is one of the most potent practices in approaching Dominance from a conscious perspective, and the biggest thing that makes this approach different from kink/BD$M based D/s relationships.

In this episode, Andrew and Eric have a deeply vulnerable conversation about our own unique tendencies in Dominance...Eric's to over express his Dominance, and Andrew's to hold back too much. And the work it's taken for each of us as we've worked to find a healthy balance inside ourselves. 

This episode will be particularly impactful for anyone who struggles with either being a bit too much of a bully and wants to rein it in, or who struggles with stepping up and taking what's being offered to you.

In Dom/sub relationships, it is up to the Dominant to lead in all ways. In order to lead, we need to stay connected to the truth of what is happening. In his life, the life of his submissive, and in the relationship.

In this conversation, Eric & Andrew discuss how they go about staying connected to reality with a process they call "taking inventory".

The discussion covers topics such as the value and necessity of competence, problem-solving, and the dynamics of confidence between men and women. And how frankly, at times, these polarity based D/s dynamics just aren't fair. But they're not supposed to be fair. They're supposed to be intense, passionate, and exciting. And this conversation highlights the importance of persistence and the journey from incompetence to mastery as we find our way to something that's even better than fair. They also touch on how these concepts apply in interpersonal relationships, emphasizing the importance of clear communication, self-reliance, and the courageous pursuit of self-improvement.

In this episode, we discuss an often-overlooked aspect of relationships: understanding and honoring the feminine cycle. In our society, women are frequently expected to conform to a 24-hour cycle similar to that of men. This expectation often overlooks the profound biological and hormonal changes women undergo throughout their roughly 28-day cycle. This conversation is an eye-opener about the importance of recognizing and honoring these cycles, not just for the women in our lives but also for ourselves as their partners. Andrew began this journey in the spring of 2020 by tracking his partner Dawn's menstrual cycle. Initially, his goal was practical: to plan vacations and other significant events around her period. However, this practice evolved into a comprehensive understanding of her physical and emotional states throughout the month. This meticulous tracking provided insights far beyond the timing of her period, revealing patterns in her mood, energy levels, libido, and more. Andrew's tracking methods started simply but became increasingly sophisticated. He began by noting the first day of Dawn’s period and the length of her cycles. Over time, he added details about her mood, rating it on a scale from 0 to 10, and even her basal body temperature, which helped predict ovulation and other hormonal shifts. Understanding her cycle brought a new level of compassion and empathy into their relationship. For instance, Andrew now plans Dawn's workouts based on her cycle, ensuring they are intense during her high-energy phases and gentler during her low-energy phases. This consideration has allowed Dawn to be kinder to herself and accept her body's natural fluctuations, improving her self-esteem and body image. One of the pitfalls Andrew and other men often fall into is trying to fix or level out their partner’s natural hormonal fluctuations, which is counterproductive. Instead, the goal should be enhancing the acceptance of these natural changes, thus fostering a healthier relationship dynamic. Society often imposes a solar cycle lifestyle—structured around a 24-hour day—that doesn’t fit the natural lunar cycle of women. In this episode, we advocate for a paradigm shift in how we view and honor these cycles both in personal relationships and societal structures. Understanding the feminine cycle is not just about making life convenient; it’s about fostering deep compassion, empathy, and ultimately, a stronger relationship. By being situationally aware and conscious of the phases women go through, we can lead with empathy and create environments that honor their natural rhythms. Andrew’s journey into tracking Dawn's cycle was transformative for both of them, and these insights hold potential benefits for any relationship. It allows for better planning, compassionate interactions, and a deeper understanding of one another.

In this powerful episode of CONSCIOUS DOMINANCE, Eric and Andrew unpack the six foundational pillars that transform conventional dominance into conscious leadership: accountability (taking radical ownership of your reality), valor (courage infused with love), integrity (alignment between values and actions), sensitivity (honoring rather than armoring your wounds), presence (the ability for her to feel you feeling her), and regeneration (alchemizing life's challenges into growth). The conversation reveals a profound truth: true dominance isn't about controlling others but mastering yourself.

In this powerful, solo episode of CONSCIOUS DOMINANCE, Eric confronts the shadow side of masculine sexuality—how we unconsciously use maintenance sex to medicate emotional wounds rather than face our loneliness directly. He challenges men to examine the water they swim in: Are you using your partner as emotional comfort without awareness? The path forward demands radical honesty. This isn't just about better sex—it's about becoming the architect of your relational reality instead of its unconscious prisoner.

In this thought-provoking episode of Conscious Dominance, Eric explores the concept of "embracing the suck" within dominant/submissive relationships, introducing his Dynamic Sexual Relationship Expansion (DSRX) methodology. He challenges traditional DS dynamics by advocating for a container that allows feminine expression and expansion rather than control or suppression. Eric discusses how true dominance requires masculine ego death while encouraging authentic feminine voice. The episode culminates with eight powerful reflection questions that invite listeners to examine their own relationship patterns:

1. Where do I feel the urge to control rather than host?
2. When triggered, can I see this as an opportunity for ego death and growth?
3. How might I be suppressing my own truth or encouraging my partner to suppress her truth or their truth?
4. What pattern of self silencing and self betrayal do I recognize in myself or my partner?
5. How can I create a container that allows for expansion rather than restriction?
6. Where do I need to grow up to hold space for my partner's full expression?
7. Am I willing to feel like hell sometimes as a part of this growth process?
8. How can I get the tools to hold myself and alchemize my hell into love?

In this raw, explorative episode of CONSCIOUS DOMINANCE, Eric reveals the transformative power of three words women truly crave: "I got you." Beyond empty promises, these words demand embodied truth—a masculine capacity to anticipate rather than merely react. The invisible burden women carry creates relationship imbalance, where married men thrive while women burn out. This episode offers actionable wisdom on creating the container for genuine feminine surrender. The path demands attunement to her nervous system, mastery of transitions, and unwavering presence that holds space without defensiveness. Are you ready to develop the situational awareness and emotional competence that transforms these words from hollow promise to lived reality?

In this paradigm-shifting episode of CONSCIOUS DOMINANCE, Eric dismantles the illusion that dominance means control over others, revealing instead a powerful truth: true masculine leadership emerges through the art of hosting. Drawing from Japanese culture, Tommy Shelby's penetrative presence, and high-end hospitality, he illuminates how consciously holding space for others creates loyalty no force ever could. Are you still approaching power as dominance rather than service? Discover why the most powerful men aren't those who demand attention but those who masterfully anticipate needs, read subtle cues, and take complete responsibility for the experience of those in their care—creating a magnetic field of trust few can resist.

In this episode of CONSCIOUS DOMINANCE, Eric confronts the invisible undercurrent destroying relationships: men's fear of embarrassment colliding with women's need for safety. Recording in the raw aftermath of his own emotional trigger with Rachael, he unveils how masculine anger masks deeper shame while feminine expression emerges from a perpetual state of emergency response. The breakthrough revelation? Men avoid situations where they might appear incompetent while women develop competence purely to ensure safety. Eric introduces his transformative "emergency room doctor" approach, challenging men to embody the four essential C's—Competence, Confidence, Context, and Clarity—while remaining an unshakable presence during feminine emotional storms.

About Conscious Dominance

The Conscious Dominance podcast was born from weekly conversations between two friends, Andrew & Eric.

Every week, we would connect and talk about the ways that our roles as Dominants in long term, loving Dominant/submissive relationships were calling us to higher integrity, and demanding the absolute best from each of us as men. And in those conversations, we realized how much other men might benefit from being let in on these conversations. So we started recording them for you.
