Expectations - boon or bane? Hell, one would even say that a life with no expectations is not a life worth living. Men, we are daunted with what society expects us to be - a traditional provider with a gentle, malleable disposition, yet fiery enough to lead and protect, while still giving the woman space to do whatever she likes.

And then society also throws all sorts of labels at men that confuses the hell out of us. What do they expect from us?

I know this though: There is power in expectations. We just need to learn to harness it to our advantage, and that requires us knowing our boundaries and then breaking them in the ways that we choose.

Here’s a tip: Confidence comes from knowing which expectations to fulfil and which to reject. You can’t please everybody.

“Time to man up!” Yeah, we hear that all the damned time. “A mature man embraces personal growth.”

Pfft.

Being midlife, the only personal growth most of us are seeing are the size of our waistline.

Doesn’t it just grate on your nerves when people speak in high concepts expecting you to understand?

What Eugene and Jones do in this podcast episode is to breakdown what it means to “man up” and what personal growth means to each of them and how they managed to shift their optics and that changed everything.

Here’s a tip: Don’t listen to the BS that’s being put out there telling you what a real man is. You have to know yourself, your boundaries, and what that personal growth journey means to you.

“Happiness” is such a simple word but oh so elusive. It’s what everyone truly wants, really; but how we achieve that seems to differ from person to person. A poor backpacker overlooking the mountain ranges feels immense joy as to the young lady who bought her first branded bag with her pay cheque.

What makes you happy?

In this episode, Eugene and Jones discusses what makes them happy.

Here’s a tip: Happiness comes free of charge. Getting there might not be easy though, but that’s why we started this channel so us clueless folks can come together and find that “ah-ha” moment together.
