the HARDER SHAFT

In this episode of the Secret MENS Business podcast I discuss "Cancel Culture". Within the turbulent past few years, the idea that a person can be “cancelled” — in other words, culturally blocked from having a prominent public platform or career — has become a polarizing topic of debate. The rise of “cancel culture” and the idea of cancelling someone coincides with a familiar pattern: A celebrity or other public figure does or says something offensive. A public backlash, often fuelled by politically progressive social media, ensues.

It’s common to compare cancel culture to “call-out culture” — but its real roots may lie in the civil rights movement

As cancel culture caught on, many members of the public, as well as the media, have frequently conflated it with other adjacent trends — especially “call-out culture.” Cancel culture can be seen as an extension of call-out culture: the natural escalation from pointing out a problem to calling for the head of the person who caused it.

Cancel culture and call-out culture are often confused not only with each other, but also with broader public shaming trends, as part of a collectivised narrative that all of these things are examples of trolling and harassment. The media has sometimes referred to this collectivised narrative as “outrage culture.”

In this episode of the Secret MENS Business podcast we speak to CHRIS DELANEY about Unconscious Bias in our current word.. He shares his own experience with bias and he took these moment and created a way to help others interviews, life situations and connection.

Unconscious biases are social stereotypes about certain groups of people that individuals form outside their own conscious awareness. Everyone holds unconscious beliefs about various social and identity groups, and these biases stem from one's tendency to organise social worlds by categorising.

This bias occurs when someone unconsciously associates certain stereotypes with different genders. ... An example of this bias during hiring is if the hiring panel favors male candidates over female candidates even though they have similar skills and job experience. Another well-known example is the gender pay gap.

Why is it important to think about Unconscious Bias? Unconscious bias can affect workplaces and organisations. It can introduce unintentional discrimination and result in poor decision-making. Unconscious Bias can be a huge setback in creating a truly diverse and inclusive workplace

In this episode of the Secret MENS Business podcast we speak to STUART WADE about the power of the mind. He shares his experience with assisting people perform at optimal levels in sport & life.

My name is Stuart Wade, I am a qualified Personal Trainer, Level 4 Strength and Conditioning Coach, Licensed NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) Practitioner, Clinical Hypnotherapist and EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) Practitioner.

Having trained clients one to one for a few years I noticed something fascinating. Because some clients were fully dedicated, they lost the weight they wanted to. They achieved their goals. Although some clients trained hard when they were with me, they struggled to keep up their healthy diet and exercise when they weren’t seeing me. I firmly believe fitness is as much about your state of mind as it is about the body and now is the time to achieve the body and health you’ve always imagined…

Mind and body

This lead me to study the mind as well as the body. I qualified as an NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) Practitioner and Clinical Hypnotherapist to better serve my clients and help them get even better results! Therefore combining hypnosis with physical fitness training my clients achieved more weight loss in a healthy way, in a shorter time!

These methods are scientifically proven to get you the results you want now. Picture how amazing you’ll look being healthier, slimmer, toned up… You can hear those around you complimenting you on your transformation… Feels great don’t you agree?

In this episode of the Secret MENS Business podcast we speak to MICHAEL VEE about the importance of connecting with our internal desire to change. He discusses his failures and how he turned them into success.

A self-described Shaved Gorilla, Michael Vee is an artist, an author, a filmmaker, a dog lover and hell of a nice guy.

Just ask anyone.

Armed with a quick wit, a slightly sardonic sense of humor, and a unique perspective, Michael ( Vee to his friends ) is the architect of The Radical Humanist.

He believes the key to recovery lies in helping others.

It’s been instrumental in his own healing and what continues to propel him forward.

”My only goal is to be a little better today than I was yesterday.

And tomorrow, be a little better than I am today.”

That being said, he’s not above going off half-cocked ( sometimes full-cocked )

and making a complete fool of himself if the situation warrants it.

Humor is curative and there are enough embarrassing photos of Vee on the internet to justify that statement.

He lives his life full tilt super boogie and doesn’t understand why anyone would settle for any less.  Hunter S. Thompson said it best, “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”

In his free time, he enjoys hiking, camping, grilling, riding motorcycles, using Oxford commas,  and proving the existence of Bigfoot.

Never one to back down from a challenge or not beat a dead horse,  Vee decided that the world needed just one more podcast.

So here we are.

In this episode of the Secret MENS Business podcast we speak to BEN WINTER about mens expecations, the pressure to become a better man, and what the world now expects from men.

Ben certainly hasn’t been idle in life. A couple of years out of college and he started doing things and going places he never would have expected. From traveling to personal growth to marriage and child to divorce and parenthood to entrepreneurialism and inspiring others. Ben has flown an airplane on his own and has been scuba diving in the Galapagos. He has seen the animals of Tanzania and has traveled all over Europe with a 6-month-old child in tow. He has performed improv for over a decade, acted in several plays, and even a movie. He has owned several businesses.

His biggest passion is exploring the mind.

In all of his personal growth work, the one constant was that it all stems from the mind. Between personal growth and improv, he found this weird realm called expectations. And while most people would shy away from such a thing, he decided to tackle it head-on. Along his journey, he decided that “the only reason anyone gets upset is because an expectation hasn’t been met.” And begin teaching that in his Success Improv business.

From there, he noticed that there has to be a way to use that upset feeling to fix the situation. And he created the amazing “How to stop being upset” flow chart.

From there it was a simple step of taking everything that he has explored on the subject and put it in a book called, “What to Expect when Having Expectations.”

In this episode of the Secret MENS Business podcast we speak to CHARLIE RANDELL about how powerful the mind is, that it has the ability to rewire itself.

WHAT DOES NQPC STAND FOR - Not Quite Politically Correct

NQPC blogs want to make a difference in the community by helping companies understand what is needed for disabled access, improving their awareness and encouraging them to include more information on their websites for customers requiring disabled access.

WHO IS BEHIND NQPC?

I’m Charlie Randell - a young wheelchair user with Cerebral Palsy. I work in digital marketing, whilst running a YouTube channel which focuses on disabled lifestyle and fitness. My girlfriend - Gina Twelftree helps me

to run and promote my YouTube channel, whilst also running this blog. Gina writes the blogs from our ideas and experiences. She is basically my glamorous assistant.

WHY DID YOU START NQPC?

I made the decision to start my own YouTube channel in 2017,

I had wanted to for sometime but had been quite nervous

of how successful or - more accurately -  how unsuccessful

I would be. After encouragement from my friends I started

making regular fitness, diet and lifestyle vlogs, which have

slowly built up an audience. I met Gina in August 2017 and,

both being ambitious, we came up with idea to include more

videos on what it’s like to be a disabled person. We soon

came up with the idea of making blogs with disabled access

reviews and top tips to further expand our platform and

audience, in the hope we could start to make a change

in the disabled community. So that’s why we’re here - we

want to try and make a difference in the community by

helping companies understand what is needed for disabled

access, improving their awareness and encouraging them to

include more information on their websites for

customers requiring disabled access.

In this episode of the Secret MENS Business podcast we speak to Nick Arhakos about how powerful the mind is, that it has the ability to rewire itself.

“Unlike most, my uniqueness comes from the combination of tarot card reading and life coaching. I'm also fully self-taught.”

Nick is a 22 years old and helps people become the best versions of themselves by the combination of life coaching and tarot card readings. Within the space of coaching, clients don't usually spill 'all the beans' and to find the root of the problem he needs to know the whole story. That's where the tarot cards come in. The tarot cards help him receive guidance from the universe to help put his clients in the right direction.

We celebrate our 150th Episode of the SECRET MENS BUSINESS podcast.

In this episode of the Secret MENS Business podcast we speak to Shawn Jacobson about how young woman deal with men, sexual freedom, and double standards.

Shawn is the host of the podcast TOUGH TITTIES - This show is as raw as it gets. She will give it to you straight when it comes to sex, dating, relationships, friendships, mental health and all the good shit in between.

Double standards theory predicts that people use different standards for making inferences about others' abilities based on social status. Social identity processes, however, imply that people evaluate in-group members more positively than out-group members.

The belief that women and men are held to different standards of sexual conduct is pervasive in contemporary American society. According to the sexual double standard, boys and men are rewarded and praised for heterosexual sexual contacts, whereas girls and women are derogated and stigmatized for similar behaviors.
