Do you think more success and status are the keys to lasting fulfillment?

What happens when our achievements leave us feeling empty?

And what does it mean to be dangerous?

Today, my wife, Alyson and I explore a life beyond constant comfort and how most men are stuck in a trap — striving to play a game they can’t win.

In this interview:

Alyson recovers from her bathroom noises

Getting over ourselves can be painful

A threat to our self image feels like a threat to our lives

What it means to be responsible for your life

Tolerating bullshit vs saying “no”

Plus:

Settling because “this is just the way it is”

Blaming others and playing the victim

Do victims enjoy feeling powerless?

Why someone with a victim mentality isn’t coachable

The addiction to sadness and suffering

And:

When success leaves us feeling empty

“What’s wrong with me? I thought I’d feel fulfilled.”

What would feel expansive?

What do I want more than being comfortable all the time?

Developing a guidance system based on what you value most
