Guyset

There is so much work and career advice on the internet, especially when you're starting your first job or trying to figure out corporate life in your 20s. But how much of that advice is actually good?

In this episode of Guyset, I went through some of the work advice I've been seeing on TikTok, Instagram, and across the internet and gave my thoughts on all of it. Some of it I completely agree with. Some of it I think needs a little more context. And some of it I just don't agree with at all.

We talk about dealing with difficult coworkers, how much you should actually share at work, why you should keep track of your accomplishments, getting important conversations in writing, and what being bored at work might actually be telling you. I also get into some of the stuff about working full time that I don't think we talk about enough, like staying active, building a routine, having a social life, and figuring out how to have a life outside of work.

Because when you first start working, it can really feel like your job suddenly takes up your entire life. You're trying to be good at your job and grow your career while also going to the gym, seeing your friends, dating, making plans, taking care of yourself, and somehow not coming home every night and immediately falling asleep on the couch.

If you're starting your first job, figuring out corporate life, trying to grow in your career, dealing with coworkers, struggling with work-life balance, or just trying to figure out how you're supposed to navigate work in your 20s, there's probably something in here for you.

Take whatever advice resonates with you, try it out, and see what actually works for you.

So how do I know if she actually likes me or if she's just being nice?

And if we start dating, how do I know if she's seeing someone else? And what do I do when we I start to really like her and overthinking everything?

In this Dear Guyset episode, I'm giving my take on some of the biggest early dating questions guys are asking right now. I'm talking about how to tell if she likes you or is just being nice, whether you should assume she's seeing other guys, how long you should wait to text her back, and what to do when you can't stop overthinking everything.

I also get into when to ask for a second date, how often you should see someone when you first start dating, and why trying to play texting games usually makes dating more complicated than it needs to be.

If you've ever found yourself wondering "Does she actually like me?" "Is she seeing other guys?" or "Am I texting her too much?" or anything else along those lines, this episode is for you.

What can Spider-Man teach us about growing up, rejection, heartbreak, comparison, grief, and moving forward?

In this episode of Guyset, I'm breaking down the biggest lessons guys can learn from Spider-Man: Brand New Day and why Peter Parker continues to be one of the most relatable superheroes for all guys.

We grew up alongside Tom Holland's Spider-Man, and now Peter Parker is dealing with many of the same things we are: getting rejected, comparing his life to his friends, trying to balance everything at once, dealing with loss, asking for help, and figuring out how to keep moving forward when life doesn't go according to plan.

I talk about why Spider-Man has always been different from other superheroes, the story behind Stan Lee creating a hero with real personal problems, and why seeing someone as powerful as Spider-Man struggle with the same things we do can make us feel a little less alone.

This episode is about more than Spider-Man. It's about growing up, starting over, leaning on the people around you, and realizing that even when a chapter of your life ends, there's always a brand new day.

If you're dealing with heartbreak, rejection, loneliness, comparison, grief, or simply trying to figure out your 20s, this episode is for you.

Nobody teaches you how to go on a first date. There's no rulebook, no playbook, and no guide to what actually works. So I made one.

In this episode, I'm sharing the unwritten rules of dating, from the confirmation text that sets the tone to how to prepare before the date, keep the conversation flowing, make a great first impression, and follow up afterward. These are the small things that can make dating feel a lot less confusing and help you show up with more confidence.

Whether you're getting ready for your very first date or just want a refresher before your next one, this episode will help you navigate first dates with more confidence.

What are the things that are actually worth spending money on?

The "things worth the money" trend has been all over TikTok and Instagram lately, so I decided to put my own spin on it. In this episode, I share the purchases and experiences that have genuinely improved my life across dating, lifestyle, and mindset, and explain why I think they're actually worth spending money on.

From grooming products and cologne to TSA PreCheck, gym memberships, quality clothing, concerts, travel, and the daily habits that make life easier, these are the investments I think every guy should consider.

Some of these purchases save time. Others build confidence. And some simply make everyday life better. If you've ever wondered what is actually worth buying and what isn't, this episode is for you.

Dating has never been more confusing. What is a situationship? When should you become exclusive? And how do you know when it's time to define the relationship?

In this episode, I break down every stage of modern dating, from first dates and situationships to exclusivity, commitment, and relationships. I explain what each dating label actually means, when it's time to have the "what are we?" conversation, and why I believe honest communication matters more than any label. If you've ever wondered where your relationship stands, how to become exclusive, or how to navigate modern dating with more confidence, this episode is for you.

You'd think there'd be nothing to learn from Love Island. I thought the same thing. But after watching this season, I realized it might actually be one of the best case studies on modern dating, confidence, communication, and relationships. Beneath all the drama, awkward conversations, and viral moments are real lessons about trust, emotional maturity, flirting, insecurity, expressing your feelings, asking better questions, and making someone feel genuinely seen.

In this episode, I break down the biggest takeaways every guy can apply to his own life, whether you've watched Love Island every night or have never seen a single episode. If you're trying to become more confident, communicate better, or build healthier relationships, there's a lot more to learn from this show than you'd ever expect. Buckle up.

In this episode of Guyset, I talk about one of the biggest challenges we all face: self-doubt. Whether it's starting a new career, asking someone out, pursuing a dream, applying for a job, or simply believing you're capable of more, self-doubt has a way of convincing us not to even try.

I break down why confidence doesn't come before action, why the way you speak to yourself matters more than you think, and how small daily actions can slowly quiet the voice telling you that you can't.

If you've lost belief in yourself, stopped pursuing something you care about, or feel stuck waiting until you feel ready, this episode is a reminder that confidence is built through action, not certainty.

It's short and sweet and worth your while.
