  • Ep #039: Mother & Father Wounds, Relationship with Our Parents, and Why We Do What We Do

    Preparing for this episode was tough. Just the thought of reflecting on our childhoods and asking ourselves,"what influence does our childhood have on our lives?" and "do I have a mother and/or father wound?" seemed both exciting and scary as hell. In this episode, we really open up ourselves to the idea of what a mother and father wound, if + how they have impacted our lives + current relationships, and how intensely our relationship with our parents growing up can + has influenced our current reality and the thoughts, patterns, and behaviours we frequent. We laugh, we cry, and we dive deep - an episode you do NOT want to miss.

  • EP #038: The Struggle is Real - The Truth Behind Our Collective Experience as Men

    "Men live lives of quiet desperation."

    "Women, children, and dogs are loved unconditionally. Men are loved under the condition that they provide something."

    Statements like these are everywhere with even more trying to counteract their validity, and while this may not be 100% of mens experience, just the fact that it is a reality for some is something to be addressed (btw, men are still 3 times more likely to take their own life...). In this weeks episode, we dive deep into these statements and how they have not only influenced but have actively shown up in our lives. This isn't an episode attempting to fix the problem - this is an episode to speak the truth - the truth of our struggles as men in our current era. We see you, we hear you, and we stand beside you, King.

  • EP #037: What Does "Living with Integrity" Mean & Are We Looking At It The Wrong Way?

    For the longest time, we presumed, based on our upbringing, that integrity only meant "stay true to your word" and "be honest, always.:" But where did our word come from? Is it truly our word, or someone else's? What does "honesty" truly even mean? Why does the dictionary define the word "Integrity" in two different ways, and what about a building or an airplanes integrity can we learn from? Join us in this weeks episode as we dive deep into the concept of integrity and how we can begin to cultivate a sense of wholeness.

  • EP #036: Conscious Masculinity w/ Andy Nguyen

    Andy Nguyen is a mens coach and group facilitator focusing on cultivating a deeper resonance with our own personal confidence and integrity. And not just integrity of our mind + word, but also our integrity of within our body and our heart. In this powerful guest episode we discuss what it means to be a man, how our childhood has affected our journey as men, the importance of breath work + meditation, the social approval we seek to ensure our manhood, and how we can begin to cultivate a more conscious approach to our own masculinity.

  • EP #035: Are You Happy?

    Do you find yourself blocking happiness from entering your life because you feel as if you haven't accomplished enough yet and therefore are not worthy of it? To help cultivate our personal answer, we prompt the following questions: what does happiness mean to you? Is it something found outside of yourself? Is it a mindset? Is it something that we eventually achieve when we've accomplished a certain amount of goals? Can you just simply choose to be happy? Is a state of feeling optimistic the same as being happy? And finally - in this moment, are you happy? Seemingly ever-present and, at the same time, ever-elusive, we challenge the following notion - is the concept of "happiness" an appropriate measurement stick for a fulfilling life?

  • EP #034: Playing Small, Asking for Support, and the Power of Identification
    We as men are hearing a reoccurring theme: asking for help is a strength, not a weakness. And while this can be empowering for some, it can also feel like another task or a representation that we are never doing enough + not doing a good job. So what do we do? How do we navigate the knowing that asking for support is a good thing while it feels so uncomfortable? What are the possibilities that can + have come from this seemingly uncommon space amongst us as men? As always, we are here to talk about it, so join us on this weeks episode as we discuss some of the common challenges when it comes to seeking support, why it can be so hard for many including ourselves, what asking for help looks like for us, and how we can better navigate this space together within our collective brotherhood.

  • EP #033: Conflict Resolution, Holding Space vs. Fixing, and the Power of Staying Open
    Conflict resolution is everywhere at almost every moment. How? Because conflict doesn't just exist with other people - it also happens inside of ourselves. Where should i go today? What career path should I take? What should i eat today? The choice between left and right, good or bad, right and wrong crosses our space constantly, and every one of these moments is breeding an opportunity for conflict. So that begs the question: how do we handle it? Do we shut down because it's too much? Do we deflect it because we don't want to deal with it? Maybe we just give into other peoples opinions because we don't want to upset them or be a burden? No matter what your conflict resolution style is, we invite you to listen in as we share our styles. how they were developed, what patterns we both have that we are working on doing differently, and the biggest lessons we learned that have helped us handle conflict - even between the two of us!

  • Ep #032: Navigating Change + Expectations + Daily "Stress"
    Have you noticed that stress has become a hot button topic these days? Is it possible to have a conversation that doesn't involve some sort of discussion around stress management? What even is this concept of stress, and why is it so prevalent in what seems to be every day of our lives? Listen in to this weeks episode as we dive deep + add context to the mindset of stress, how it has impacted our personal lives + our relationships with others, and how we choose to see it now in each of our current experiences.
    1 hr 29 min
  • EP #031: Is Your Ego Really The Enemy?
    Do you see your ego as a friend, or an enemy? Is it possible to fully rid ourselves of our ego? What is it even there for? Partly inspired by the book, "Ego is The Enemy" by Ryan Holiday, this episode is focused entirely on breaking down this concept of the ego and what part it played + continues to play in our lives. From reactionary outbursts to keeping us safe, dive in with us as we get down into the nitty gritty of our own personal egos + share perspectives surrounding egoism that have drastically impacted our relationship with ourselves + others + the world.
