The Bearded Gents Podcast

How we feel about being alone tells us a lot about how we actually feel about ourselves. And has a lot of subconscious knock-on effects when it comes to our attachment style, our relationships and how we see ourselves when it is just you.

Being present with why we started a thing, and how we have changed when relating to that thing, is pretty valuable. Perspective, gratitude and the idea that we have made more progress than we can see in the moment add value to the journey and stronger foundations to move onwards and upwards with.

How does the judgement and discernment we use on a daily basis working for us? Is it done to create a power dynamic to make ourselves feel more important and better than the people around us? Or to understand ourselves and our place in the world better, and create value with it?

How do we get to place so we can take outside influences in-stride? Is it by not caring? Is it caring about everything? Or, is it picking a choosing what we care about, how we prioritise that and then act that out?

What is the truth? Why do we tell the truth, why do we lie, what's the value in either one of those things. Plus, Liver King!!!

Every decision, or lack of decision, has consequences. But how thoroughly do we consider those consequences? Better yet, do we care enough to consider them?

Today we talk to Lou, to hear her story of how she became more than she thought she ever could after spending a life feeling like she was nothing. 

When we leave old part of us behind, burn it off, make the choice to choose different... What do we do then? Do we leave space for things to naturally fill that new space within us? Do we actively and intentionally look for what we want to embody?

Today we talk to Shaun Sargent, head honcho, pretty cool guy and the driving force behind mens health brand, Stait. He tells the story of how he created a product and a life of value and connection after experiencing what the other side felt like. 

Do we live up to our own standards? How do we expect others to live up to them? Do any of us live a life of integrity based on what we think and feel is right and correct behaviour? Where do those ideas of right and correct come from, does it matter if we don't prioritise them?
