As we grow and move through life, our experiences and thoughts shift and change. It's natural to have some big realizations and to feel all sorts of emotions bubble up to the surface.And when these emotions surface, you might feel like you need a release in the form of a good cry…. and there’s nothing wrong with that. In fact, this actually happened to me a few weeks ago. I was in the middle of a very busy week, there were many important issues that need most of my time ...

It’s so fun to realize that once you become a parent of little kids, you also get to enjoy whatever they want to watch on the television!At home, we usually watch kids' movies all together as a family, with my children, who are four and six years old. The Disney Channel has been great as it's given us a variety of movies to watch.To be honest, I also grew up watching Disney movies. All the films that are now great classics, like Aladdin and the Lion King. I can say that as...

When talking about a domesticated man, what’s the first thing that comes to your mind?You might be thinking of someone who is fond of housework and others may think of someone who is fond of home life. I really want to talk about this in this podcast because this has been a big thing for me and it has been on my mind over a couple of years, especially when the pandemic hit the world. When I talk about a domesticated man, it’s more of being obedient and being tamed. If you want ...

This is the first episode for 2022! It's great to be back on the podcast. I took some time off and took some time away from doing everything. You all know that the past couple of years brought us all different challenges, but we were able to get through them. And one of the big reasons why I was able to overcome those challenges is because I always love what I do. My coaches, my wife, and I put our hearts into what we’re doing. It doesn’t mean that we’ve never experienced being...

We’re fast approaching the end of the year! This is the perfect time for reflection.When I was young, I wanted to be successful, famous, and have women. I wanted to be the quintessential alpha male. So I tried to find every scheme and get rich quick program to reach this goal. This drive came from wanting to prove people wrong and comparison. Even though ambition to succeed from resentment can benefit you and give you some success, it can also push you to overwork, over sacrifice, and be...

Are you okay with being still? Or does the idea of not having something on the go make you feel uncomfortable?We live in a world where it’s possible to be plugged in 24 hours of the day.

Our bodies are suffering right now. We are living in our heads and our bodies are being ignored.

Let go of that urge for a moment. I invite you into this meditation to just be with yourself. Ask yourself, what are you feelin...

Are you really good at finding solutions to problems?Most men are. Humans are amazing in their capacity to come up with solutions, but this can sometimes be detrimental. One thing I’ve noticed is that most men are so conditioned to focus on finding answers to problems, that they don’t allow themselves to process the feelings that surround the problems.A lot of men think they shouldn’t ever feel certain ways. They shouldn’t feel anger, they shouldn’t feel rage, they shouldn’t feel sadness...

Today’s episode is a meditation dedicated to travelling inwards and finding alignment. The world needs a perspective change to learn not to run from our pain and take steps to truly feel it. The fear of feeling pain causes us to project anxiety, anger, and encourages disconnection around us. There are two ways we feel pain: the pain of the things that are happening to us, and the pain from trying to avoid it. Fear of feeling pain can stop us from trying again but we need this pain becaus...

We’re still in lockdown in Melbourne and some days I wake up feeling good and motivated. Other days I find myself struggling. It’s something I’ve really had to address to get myself back into alignment. Over the years, I’ve equipped myself with various tools and modalities that really help me understand and process my emotions. Music is one of those powerful tools. As a young man, music was so helpful for me to connect with myself on a deep level and this is something that a lot of men strugg...

Are you really living the life that you want...
