Modern Maskulinity

We couldn't be more grateful to have such an incredible team and community behind us. We did NOT do this alone, and so this episode is dedicated specifically to everyone who took part in this journey with us. Thank you. Seriously.. thank you.

Atlas and Anwar officially signing off. See you soon!

I think the title speaks for itself... see you inside.

Life is full of ups and downs, left and right turns, flying and falling, and in order to find success in it all, in our opinion, we must be willing to face the man in the mirror. But what does it mean to embrace the challenge of that? When people say "its you versus you", who is the you that you're facing? And "what" are you facing? These questions are what inspired us to focus this episode on breaking down what you vs. you means, what its been like for us to face the an in the mirror, and truthfully, why we both love it. Tune in, check it out, and let us know what stood out the most!

An updated look into the lives of your favourite co-hosts, Atlas and Anwar, as we continue to evolve, grow, and explore what it means to be a man in this world. From traveling to foreign countries to being a TV star, a lot has shifted, including our perspectives on this podcast. Join us as we update you, and each other, on whats new and whats to come.

Our intention with this episode was to give you a modern mask co-host update, but something came up that we felt was much more pressing: men trusting other men + how to find a solid mens group and brotherhood. Atlas has been thru a series of mens groups over the last 6 months, and one of his biggest intentions was to learn how to trust men more. Thru that process, he learned a ton about where the men's space is currently at, what he feels is missing, and now he offers more insight into the world of mens work + he provides support on how to find a space that aligns with you.

In this weeks episode, we put Atlas in the hot seat by bringing on his partner, Gabby, Women's Life Coach, to talk about their relationship. From behaving strictly based on their coping strategies, to being fully controlled by their subconscious attachment styles, all leading to a break up where they didn't speak for a year and a half until they reunite on the other side, their story of falling and getting back up again holds a ton of wisdom and lessons that we knew were incredibly valuable and needed to be shared. This was easily one of our favourite episodes to date!

One of our favourite things to do as men is fix things. We love a job, a task, a problem - we love to seek out answers and provide help for those around us. And - that isn't what is always needed, which can be really hard to understand sometimes. That's why we wanted to have this conversation - not to "fix" it, but to hold space (see what I did there..) for us to really talk about why it's so damn hard, what may be influencing our desire to fix or solve, why we struggle to make a change towards just holding space, and some tools we have used to help our own individual experiences with friends, family, acquaintances, and intimate relationships.

This was a fun episode. We decided to bring our produce, Chris "Clyde" back into the room for a New Years conversation and the energy was hot! Not only do we discuss the details of one of us changing our name (wait, whaaaat?), but we got real honest about our journeys thru 2022. This episode is full of great stories, exciting adventures, and a ton of lessons learned. Click play and listen in as the lessons just get bigger all the way to the end!

This week we invited two leaders in the mens work space, Voy and Jose, to have a discussion with us. Voy is a Life Coach focused on empowering men to create a life without limits. Jose is also a Life Coach with his main focus being to empower men who lead to embody their truth, live their vision, and increase impact. Together, they co-found "The Modern Renaissance Man," know on instagram as @themrmofficial, a community space, coaching environment, and training ground with the intention of empowering modern men to create the life they love. As you can tell, this is a conversation you don't want to miss.

Topics we discuss: the importance of mens work, the necessity for an improved relationship with masculinity, the missing link in culture that is negatively affecting our experience as men, the value of somatic breath-work, mens rite's of passage/initiation, and more.

Same outcome - new lesson. This weeks episode was inspired by recent events surrounding the unexpected and incredibly sad news about the passing of tWitch. On paper, he had it all. But within, none of that mattered.

It's time to get back to the drawing board, because something is not working.
