What if your anxiety isn't actually the problem but just a signal that you're performing for others instead of expressing yourself?

In this raw conversation, I sit down with voice coach Mitchell Ryan to explore shadow integration, nervous system regulation, and what it truly means to be present in a world demanding constant performance.

From childhood isolation to finding flow through music, this episode is a masterclass in authentic communication and masculine vulnerability.

You'll discover:

• The "Monster at the Pub" approach to shadow integration (game-changing)
• Why curiosity is the only real form of meditation
• How hustle culture traps you in doing energy vs. being energy
• The bullying paradigm shift that changes everything
• What happened when Travis spoke to 400 kids about depression
• Mitchell's journey from isolated kid to voice coach through music

This episode is for you if:

• You feel like you're constantly performing in conversations
• You struggle with parts of yourself you wish would disappear
• You're sick of spiritual bypassing and want practical tools
• You've been hustling hard but still feel empty
• You want shadow work without the woo-woo jargon

She Had Everything on Paper... Here's Why She Walked Away | Pippa Martin

Six years ago, Pippa Martin had it all: the house, the car, the degree, the relationship. She was 110kg, deeply unhappy, and living someone else's dream.

Then she made a decision that changed everything.

She quit her job, sold her house, and moved to the other side of the world with someone she'd known for just three months. She lost 75 pounds, built a multi-six-figure fitness business, and lived across Thailand, Vietnam, Spain, and the UK.

But that was just her first reinvention.

Recently, she walked away from that thriving business to pursue something even more aligned with her truth.

In this conversation, we explore:

→ The moment she realized "success" was suffocating her → What it actually takes to burn your life down and start over → Why the 50/50 relationship myth is destroying partnerships → How to know when it's time to choose yourself → The real cost of following someone else's blueprint

This isn't about chasing viral moments. This is about honoring the courage it takes to become who you actually are.

If you've ever felt trapped in a life that looks perfect on paper, this episode is for you.

This one’s gonna sting .. in the best way.

Ever noticed how the moment your business is flowing, your relationship feels solid, or money’s finally stacking… you start doing dumb shit? You ghost people. You pick fights. You blow money on things you don’t care about. 

You burn the whole thing down..then wonder why you can’t “just be happy.”

In this episode, I break down the brutal truth: it’s not because you’re broken, it’s because your nervous system is programmed to think good things are dangerous. 

And that wiring? 

It’s not random .. it’s your mother wound, your father wound, and the survival patterns you learned as a kid running your adult life.

We’ll go deep into:

• How your childhood trained you to equate safety with danger.
• The sneaky ways mother wounds and father wounds destroy business, relationships, and money flow.
• Why calm feels like a trap ... and chaos feels like home.
• The real reason you self-destruct when you should be thriving.
• The exact steps to rewire your system so you can hold success without burning it down.

If you’re sick of rebuilding from scratch because you can’t seem to keep the good things, this episode will feel like I’ve been living in your head.

Listen if you’re ready to stop treating peace like a countdown to pain  and start building a life you can actually keep

What to do when your growth scares the people around you .. and how to keep going anyway
