It's the season of giving, and in this podcast episode I wanted to discuss 3 big ways of giving and how they impact or influence our relationships.

In particular, there is one form of giving which is the true lifeblood to intimate relationships - and it has nothing to do with giving her "stuff".

Without a doubt, lifestyle and social circle play a large role in KEEPING a woman attracted to us.

She, unconsciously and innately, will evaluate us based on our lifestyle and our community of friends. She knows that these two relationships reveal YOU.

In this podcast episode (a brief one btw - just over 20 minutes), I discuss 2 of my favorite quotes and reveal the BEST way to leverage this fact of attraction to our favor.

LSA058: The Crucial Intersection of Lifestyle & Attraction

Max Nachamkin had a radical idea.

Instead of busying himself with routines, gimmicks or any false posturing he decided to do nothing - literally.

He was in the middle of a crowded bar, with many attractive girls, and instead of posing in any way, shape or form he decided to stand in one place and simply watch what happened - inside and outside of himself.

For many years, I have been fascinated by ritual - and none moreso than the Vision Quest.

Largely lost in the modern age, the vision quest is an ancient rite whereby a young, adolescent male goes into nature for a set period of time and returns an adult, a man. Having fended for himself, contacted nature in a direct way and opened to himself and the universe, he is ready for adulthood and the responsibility this carries.

At no point in our history do we need rites such as vision quests moreso than now and Dennis Kiley and Rob Schene (amongst others) seek to fill that void.

Peter Scott had a tough choice to make...stay with his alcoholic mother and continue living in chaos and fear. Or, confront her about her drinking and move in with his grandparents.

Seems like an obvious, though difficult, choice to make, no?

Peter however had to make this decision when he was 10 years old...

...and he did make that choice, and forever altered the path his life would follow.

There is a crisis in manhood, and Stephen Mansfield is one of the most outspoken and eloquent voices talking about it. We have lost our way, and Stephen has made a map for how we can get back on track.

I was first made aware of Stephen Mansfield a few years ago when he released his terrific "Mansfield's Book of Manly Men". We discuss his "4 tenets of masculinity" & more on this episode of the Lifestyle Arts Podcast.
