What if freedom isn’t about chasing more, but about being free from your own pain?
In this episode, I sit down with Stefanos, a world-renowned relationship coach and personal transformational leader with over 20 years of experience. He’s the co-founder of the Elementum Coaching Institute and the Mpowered Brotherhood, guiding everyone from Olympic athletes and special forces soldiers to everyday people through healing trauma, redefining masculinity, and creating deeper purpose.
Our conversation gets personal. We talk about the patterns that follow us from childhood into adult relationships, what it takes to slow down and regulate when conflict hits, and why practices like breathwork, somatics, and honest reflection with others can shift the way we show up. Stefanos brings candid stories from his own life and decades of work with clients to reveal what real freedom actually looks like.
