Manfulness

I have something on my mind that's bothering me, and to be honest I don't have the answer to it. But I feel it's important to voice these thoughts and perhaps start up a discussion.What's triggered me is I saw a post the other day about Harry Styles wearing a dress on the cover of Vogue and the backlash that was received. There were comments effectively saying, "Bring back the manly man". This really bothered me because it creates confusion and an intolerance that we really don't need.From th...

I have another interview coming up for you today and I have to say, I’m loving these sessions. It’s so great to connect with other men and have those deeper conversations. On the podcast today I’m joined by Tim Morrison. I’ve been following Tim for some time and I have been very impressed with the incredible work he is doing for men in the personal development space.Tim began his journey as a personal trainer at the age of 17 and fell in love with deep, transformational work, coaching people ...

At the moment I'm seeing a lot of the same patterns through the work that I'm doing with my clients. A topic that seems to be a common struggle is boundaries, or the lack thereof. It got me thinking about the fact that as men, we're generally pretty easy going. We don't tend to think too hard about creating space for ourselves or our deeper needs. We go with the flow more, but this can cause issues because it can be misconstrued as us not needing time to ourselves.A lot of the men I'm working...

I used to be out and partying all the time in my hey day and during that time, I came across Adam Edwards. he owned a bars and clubs throughout Melbourne and I always found him to be really genuine, kind and a great person to be around. You can imagine, in the world of clubbing you come across a lot of superficial people, a lot of bad behaviour and not the best atmosphere in a lot of ways, but Adam never came across like that.After many years in the club scene, the industry was wearing thin o...

You may not know this about me, but I am a massive fan of horror movies. I believe it dates back to that Michael Jackson film clip for his song Thriller which was really iconic at that time. There is an interesting side to this horror genre that I wanted to talk about today. If you’ve seen horror films before, you’ll know they follow a pretty similar path. Everything always seems to be going well, the situation is fine and then just at that moment where something exciting or good is about to ...

We often talk about how men struggle with expressing their emotions. Or that they don't have the broad range of emotions that perhaps our female counterparts do. That we don't feel as much, we're not as sensitive and we don't really need to work on ourselves. I'm calling bullshit on that. I believe Men are sensitive beings with just as much emotion to work through, but our problem a lot of the time is that we don't really have an understanding of how to deal with our emotions.One of the most ...

I’ve never been that great at playing video games. My brother on the other hand, was a massive gamer. He was really good at figuring them out, and could sit there for hours really going deep into them. I’ve always loved them though and recently we bought a Nintendo Switch for the family to enjoy together. We bought a game that I remembered as a kid, Zelda. It’s obviously changed quite a lot since I was a kid, but the overall feeling of the game hasn’t changed. It’s still quest based. You’re e...
