    Did you know that whether you are single or married, dating essentials apply to your relationship? Find out how on today’s Man Alive episode with Dr. Robert Glover.

    When you look at what it takes to keep a relationship alive, you are actually “dating” your whole life, even after you’re in a committed relationship or marriage!



    To be clear, if you’re married I’m not saying to go out and date other people! What I’m saying is that relationships start to fizzle when you put less attention on your partner and stop creating connection, in other words when you take her for granted. 



    When you maintain the mindset of actively creating spark, which usually happens more naturally in the dating phase, a relationship will stay more vital and passionate. 



    So whether you’re dating right now or in a long-term relationship, you will benefit from the dating essentials today’s Man Alive podcast guest shares. 



    Dr. Robert Glover is a psychotherapist and author of No More Mr. Nice Guy and Dating Essentials for Men. From decades of supporting couples and men as a therapist, Robert has distilled powerful tools and perspectives to help you to feel confident and get more of what you want in love and sex. 



    In our conversation we discussed… 



    * How to get over the fear of rejection and self-limiting beliefs * What you can learn about dating and relationships, especially later in life, from surfing* How to find out as quickly as possible who a woman really is and whether you’re a match * The importance of choosing a woman who chooses you and how to know if she does* Why seduction is the worst foundation for dating

  • #161: Plant Medicine Therapy for Peace and Peak Performance – Jonathan DePotter





    There is much light being shone recently on the benefits of plant medicines and psychedelics for psychological, emotional and spiritual healing and growth. On today’s podcast we discuss the benefits and what to look out for so you don’t end up having a experience that creates more harm than good.

    Show notes



    Plant medicines and psychedelics are becoming more commonly discussed and used these days, even legalized in various parts of the world. They can be a highly effective treatment for challenges such as anxiety, depression, PTSD and a range of addictions.



    As someone who is very curious about all potentials for growth and healing, as well as exploring all possible realms of consciousness, I have great respect for these substances. Reverent use with proper guidance can create deep healing and aid in releasing pain, shifting stuckness, expanding perspectives and anchoring peace and well-being. 



    When used without the correct setting or supports, however, there can be a negative impact. The experience can be too much for a person’s psyche to navigate or integrate.



    Today’s Man Alive podcast guest, Jonathan De Potter is the founder of Behold Retreats. He is passionate about creating safe and life-changing plant medicine journeys for people to explore their inner world and discover their truth. 



    In an experience with plant medicine, Jonathan was directly shown the mindsets and behaviors that were keeping him from reaching his potential. Returning to a corporate setting, Jonathan was surprised to find he was more patient and empathetic, while also being more productive than ever before. This began his in-depth research into the world of plant medicine.



    In our conversation we discussed… 



    * The potential benefits you could experience from plant medicines and psychedelics * The need for skilled guides and integration if you’re considering an experience like this* Jonathan’s journey from self focus to empathy, true purpose and a desire to support future generations * The invisible realms most people don’t access and how they can support your life* Balancing your needs with needs of others



    Plant medicines are powerful and they may or may not be your cup of tea! If you have a desire to expand your consciousness know there are plenty of ways to do so, including breathwork, meditation, qi gong, yoga, tantra, inquiry and awareness practices and more. Feel free to reach out if you’re wondering what type of experience would be best for you. 



    May you be graced with wisdom, whichever path you choose.

    What a wild time we are living through right now! Everyone I talk to is dealing with personal, as well as the collective challenges! 



    Are you?



    I hope you are finding ways to be supported by family, friends and community. If you need more support feel free to reach out. 



    One of the things I do to maintain sanity in challenging times is listen to people who share wisdom and ageless truths. When I wake up in a foul mood or find myself in one throughout the day I turn to others for inspiration!

He has hosted more than a million people in his online Food Revolution Summits, and has organized and facilitated hundreds of seminars and events for more than 200,000 leaders from 65 nations. His words and perspectives will help you tap into your potency and power as well as your ability to make a powerful contribution to the world. 



    In this episode we cover:



    * How to handle every day demands AND stay connected to your values and deeper purpose* A new and more powerful way to measure your success * How your life will change when you start to consider WHY you were born* Ocean’s personal story of losing his life savings and the profound life path it created as a result * How to use your heartbreaks and struggles to create your biggest contributions * Questions to ask yourself that make more love, impact, success and fulfillment more readily available



    I’ve been supporting many men through relationship and career changes in this time of great change. If you want support through this challenging time, or are finding a desire to use this time of change to make changes in your life, tell me more here and we can set up a time to talk.

  • #160: The Savage and Saintly Aspects of Powerful Masculinity – Michael Holt

    \nPowerful masculinity is made up of a range of qualities, some that may seem paradoxical. Find out what they are and how to access your true power on today’s podcast with martial artist and meditation facilitator Michael Holt.

    \nAre there parts of yourself you’ve shied away from or hidden from others…thinking they are wrong somehow? 
    \n
    \n
    \n
    \nToo much or not enough? Too raw or bold? Too weak or vulnerable?
    \n
    \n
    \n
    \nWhen you make parts of yourself wrong and then push away or hide them, something really painful happens.
    \n
    \n
    \n
    \nIt can be as awful as being walked on, unseen and misunderstood. Feeling powerless to change, alone and isolated. It can even lead to suicide. This breaks my heart.
    \n
    \n
    \n
    \nToday’s Man Alive podcast conversation is an important one about how ALL of you needs to be embraced and who you really are. 
    \n
    \n
    \n
    \nLike many people, you may have an incomplete understanding about your humanness. 
    \n
    \n
    \n
    \nIt’s easy to get stuck or fixated on the surface level of actions and interactions, not realizing there is a deep well you can tap into — the place from which true peace, strength, courage and confidence arise. 
    \n
    \n
    \n
    \nOn today’s podcast our guest lays out a full picture of being human and a man. Michael Holt is a martial artist, meditation facilitator and the creator of Tribe, a community for men who are ready for real and conscious change. In our conversation we discussed:
    \n
    \n
    \n
    \n* The need for the embodied AND spiritual aspects of the masculine * The power of cultivating skills based both in ferocity and meditative/healing arts* How to have more impact and influence without doing anything* Creating yourself and your life with intention* Vulnerability and receptivity as forms of strength
    \n
    \n
    \n
    \nI really enjoyed this conversation and Michael’s steady strength and care. It takes great courage to slow down and witness oneself, rather than bypassing or distracting yourself. Michael’s wisdom gives men the courage to reclaim disowned parts and sometimes even face the mysterious realms beyond our personality structures. As you listen to this conversation think whether you are facing or avoiding yourself!

    \nMy parents taught me about money but there were some foundations I was too naïve or immature to grasp. Many of us have not received a strong financial education, even though we use money all the time! And this can leave you feeling stressed and strapped.Today’s Man Alive Podcast guest talks about how it’s never too late to get your finances in order and become more financially empowered, even if it seems overwhelming! He also talks about his experience of creating a powerful LEGACY that contributes to kids and community, and how you can too.Bill Thomason III was drawn to explore the stock market as a young kid.
