Main Topics: Relationships, Masculine Blueprint, Reactivity, Create Safety, Emotional Safety, The Masculine, Communication

GS Youngblood is the acclaimed author of the groundbreaking book "The Masculine in Relationship", which challenges the modern notion that all Masculinity is toxic by offering a model - the Masculine Blueprint - for men to become grounded in their own power AND more relational with their Feminine partner. The Blueprint is something any man can embody, and it fits in our modern #MeToo culture without being watered down in any way.

The premise of his work is that many relationship problems are actually rooted in a lack of Relational Masculinity - which is a combination of groundedness, leadership, and relational skills. This is what he teaches men.

Key topics include:

⭐️ How To Be In Your Masculine Power And Provide Emotional Safety for Your Partner

⭐️ Childhood Trauma's Effect On Adult Life & Why Reactivity Harms Our Relationships

⭐️ Practices To Reduce Our Reactivity And Be More Present With Our Partners

⭐️ What Are The Hidden Signs That Your Partner Is Dissatisfied In The Relationship

⭐️ The Importance Of Attuning Our Nervous System With Daily Embodiment Practices

⭐️ How To Downregulate Our Partner's Nervous System During Conflict
