Boy Open Up

In this episode we dig into each of our own experiences with confidence and why we feel the way we do about our own abilities.  We discuss where we are currently and what it takes to develop and build real self confidence.  This episode comes down to asking ourselves some questions and being willing to give some very real and raw answers.  Thank you for opening up with us! Tell us what you think of this episode and how you embrace your inner ability!

In this episode we directly dive into one of my shortcomings and where it comes from.  This episode stemmed from a quote I found that directly spoke the common behavior we have of treating symptoms vs causes.  We numb because of how we feel.  We are generally aware of our feelings but rarely able to pinpoint or associate where they come from and why they're recurring.  We end the episode with an exercise to help grow through these types of behaviors. 

In this episode we dive into the divisive nature and problematic platform for communication on the social media giant Facebook.  We discuss solutions and options for better and more open conversations on these emotionally charged and incredibly relevant subjects. Today we really dig into a shocking interaction I had on Facebook and what I'm going to do to be more effective in communicating going forward. 

Today we interview a therapist with over 20 years experience in the fields of trauma, addiction, and the treatment or therapeutic process.  We examine current methods and where there is a large gap in the diagnosis and treatment of these social epidemics.  

In this follow up to our previous episode on hard conversations we dive into where we are as a nation currently and specifically with racism and racial injustice.  This episode is unedited and raw.  We have a real conversation about racism and where we are at with it in society. The thoughts and opinions here expressed are solely our own and no one else.  

Big conversations can define our lives and our behaviors.  We all know that the big conversations are BIGGER than they need to be because of what we make them in our minds.  Today we discuss a couple big conversations we've had, how often we've failed at them, and what the results of those big conversations have been.  Thanks for Opening up with us. 

In this episode we break down how important it is to have a growth mindset vs sitting or staying in justified anger.  We can all relate to these types of feelings in everyday life and certainly can pick out some large moments that have resulted in justified anger.  What we break down today is how we move from a victim stance to being proactive in our own growth and progress. 

Today we talk about what facing our fears looks like and how we go about doing it.  We take some major life changing moments for us, dig into them, and break them down. 

Today we dig into what caring for others looks like and how Love and Tolerance is where it should always start.

This is the conclusion of our 3 part series outlining what has led to where we are today and what this journey has looked like for us.
