The Super Human Life

Joe Bernstein Founded Drop the Armor Wellness because he is on a mission to help other men feel the love and freedom that he learned to cultivate when his life fell apart in 2013. After learning to thrive romantically in response to divorce, losing 160 lbs without diets, and leaving his 1st career to build a mission-focused business, he became LIT UP to help other men do the same.

His clients are often successful business owners, executives in tech, leaders, creatives, entrepreneurs and "personal growth junkies". They are big hearted men that often feel stuck in their heads, stuck in their careers and desiring better health, more balance and more social or romantic connection. Joe helps them to let go of overthinking and using stress as a motivator, to live a life rooted in a clear head, an open heart, and solid guts.

Steven Pressfield is a former Marine and graduate of Duke University. He became an overnight success as a writer after 30 years of abject failure. Identifying the omnipresence of "Resistance," the interior force of self-sabotage he described in The War of Art, has saved his own artistic life and has helped many others struggling to find their creative calling. Steven's novels of the ancient world, including the nonfiction The Warrior Ethos, are required reading at West Point, Annapolis, and in the Marine Corps. He lives in Los Angeles.

In this episode, Steven and I go all the way back to his upbringing and discuss who he was in high school and how that lead him down the career path he took, from marketing, truck driver, cab driving, fruit picking, to ultimately having his breakout novel become a worldwide success, The Legend Of Bagger Vance.

We talk about (R)esistance, and how it's something we all deal with, whether we identify as an artist or creator. He explains how so many people fall victim to shadow careers, which is a major them of his book, Turning Pro.

And we also discuss addiction, and how for so many highly creative people, they find the (R)esistance appearing in their lives as destructive addictions.

Really hope you enjoy this conversation! It was an absolute pleasure to speak with Steven.

GS Youngblood coaches men in relationships on how to live, love, and lead from their Masculine core. He specializes in "nice guys" who are with strong women. His teachings combine deep embodiment work with the framework of the Masculine blueprint from his book "The Masculine in Relationship".

His writings are filtered through the laboratory of his and his clients' real-world, long term relationships (including the successes and spectacular failures) to see what actually works and what doesn't. Through this lens of Masculine leadership, he also pulls in principles from a variety of fields: psychology, martial arts, tango, meditation.

In his past life, GS was a high tech executive in Sales and Marketing for 16 years, including founding and selling a company. The leadership practices of Silicon Valley, based on clarity and inspiration rather than control, are a major influence on the model of Masculine leadership he shares with his clients.

Dr. Caroline Leaf is a communication pathologist and cognitive neuroscientist with a Masters and PhD in Communication Pathology and a BSc Logopaedics, specializing in cognitive and metacognitive neuropsychology. Since the early 1980s she has researched the mind-brain connection, the nature of mental health, and the formation of memory. She was one of the first in her field to study how the brain can change (neuroplasticity) with directed mind input. During her years in clinical practice and her work with thousands of underprivileged teachers and students in her home country of South Africa and in the USA, she developed her theory (called the Geodesic Information Processing theory) of how we think, build memory, and learn, into tools and processes that have transformed the lives of hundreds of thousands of individuals with Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), learning disabilities (ADD, ADHD), autism, dementias and mental ill-health issues like anxiety and depression. She has helped hundreds of thousands of students and adults learn how to use their mind to detox and grow their brain to succeed in every area of their lives, including school, university, and the workplace. In this episode, Dr. Leaf and I explore the relationship between the mind, brain, and body. We discuss how her work for the last 30+ years has been centered around the scientific study of the human spirit and soul, how we are in control of our minds and must learn to strengthen and build them, the difference between a thought and a memory, and practical strategies to use neurocylcling to take back control of your messy mind. And so much more! Check out Dr. Leaf's newest book, Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess - https://amzn.to/2NEUplz Download her app, Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess in the Apple Store or Google Play.

Will opens up and shares some of his own personal struggles and challenges growing up in an abusive environment, and how at a very young age he realized he could always talk to God.

One underlying them in Will's life has been how he has taken obstacles or challenges thrown at him and has turned those into incredible opportunities and achievements.

This is truly an inspiring story that no matter where you come from, or what you've been through, you have the power resting inside of you to create and live your own super human life.
