April 27, 2024 Here's Why We DON'T Care About Men's Suffering - With George from TheTinMen
In this Podcast we discuss the REAL reason why the mainstream media makes men look like the oppressor 99% of the time.
Why the younger generation of men are growing up confused with terms like "Toxic-Masculinity" & "Patriarchy" and why it's so hard for both sexes to simply get a ong. George has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to sex discrimination for both males and females. In this conversation we speak on mostly men's issues but this DOESN'T mean females don't have problems. We also speak about various statistics throughout this podcast, although George is a credible source of accurate statistics, I am not. Below you will find the statistics that I cite or the correct statistics, as of April 2024. If you do have any problems with what George or I have said on this topic, or you just want to add something useful, leave a comment and I will reply to it as accurately as possible. I have these conversations as a passion, recording them & sharing them here is just a secondary focus of mine so if you do like this content please feel free to like and subscribe, or don't. Either way, thank you for listening - much love Statistics cited: Gender gap in construction -(https://www.statista.com/statistics/1023964/employment-in-the-uk-construction-industry-by-gender/#:~:text=There%20were%20approximately%201.8%20million,2023%2C%20compared%20with%20297%2C000%20women.)

November 03, 2023 What Do Olympians And Astronauts Have In Common? - With Ruth Gotian
Hello everybody and welcome back to another episode! Have you ever wondered what makes ridiculously successful people...successful? Or maybe you've pondered if mere peasants like us can achieve greatness? Well...by the end of this conversation, you will have the answers. Ruth Gotian is a researcher on a mission to identify what common threads run through all high achievers. From Nobel prize-winning scientists to Olympic Athletes. In her latest mind-expanding book "The Success Factor" she addresses what it means to be "successful". Just four steps to how anyone can strive to become highly successful, and what means the most to these outstanding individuals.It was incredible to sit down with Ruth and pick her brain about all things success, but the most important lesson I've taken away from this conversation is to surround yourself with what she calls your "mentor team". A group of individuals from a wide range of backgrounds, social classes, and opinions that you can ask for specific guidance when you need it. You don't have one? Not to worry, Ruth tells us how to form one in this episode.I would highly recommend following Ruth's work and journey as she deservedly becomes the go-to name when asking about success.Ruth Gotianruthgotian.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/rgotian/https://www.instagram.com/ruthgotian/You can find her book here - https://www.ruthgotian.com/bookDo you feel like you aren't interesting?

May 26, 2023 The Biomimicry Revolution - Can Nature Solve All Our Problems?
Hello everybody and welcome back to another episode of The Uncommon Paradigm. Today, we're talking philosophy. Not the old man staring into the night sky, wondering what life is type of philosophy, no. We're diving into a new age philosophy that revolves around a global revolution aiming to answer how we, as humans – the creators and destroyers of biomes – can live in harmony with nature.We'll explore how we can use nature as a model to solve our global problems and why we should view nature as a mentor rather than something to be shaped or molded according to our desires, as it has been for so long.My guest today can help shed light on these questions. He holds the title of Doctor of Philosophy, which he achieved at the prestigious Oxford University. Additionally, he obtained his post-doctorate degree at the Institute of Philosophy in Lyon, France. Currently, he teaches environmental philosophy at both the University of Shanghai and the University of Lyon, and he's here to discuss his book! I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did preparing for it.
