“Softness scared me more than violence ever did”
Growing up in a machismo culture & household taught Kent to interact with the world from a short temper, violence, & yelling. He thought these were normal ways to handle life, because that’s what he saw growing up.
But when it was affecting his mental health & relationships, he sought therapy to liberate himself from this box.
He now says, “real masculinity is being able to be vulnerable. It’s a balance of strength and softness. It's the strength to stand firm in who you are and the softest to allow yourself to be open, vulnerable, and caring without the fear of appearing weak.”
Every man needs to listen to this episode, as well as every heterosexual women who doesn’t believe men like this exist.
We discuss:
🗣️ the dangers of perpetuating cycles of toxic masculinity, and the freedom that comes from dismantling it
🗣️ not giving people the full extent of who we are and how that impacts relationships with friends & lovers
🗣️ how many campfires he had with friends that he didn’t get to truly enjoy because he felt like he always had to be tough or constantly monitor the area for danger
🗣️ how we can create safer spaces for the men in our lives to liberate themselves from the boxes of masculinity that limit them
🗣️ and so much more !!

Fuck what everyone else is doing. What's your magic?
In this conversation with my rebel visionary guest, Jen Haddix, we fuck the boxes that are designed to keep out our unique magic.
In 2016 Jen hit rock bottom, was diagnosed biopolar, hating herself & suicidal but then met a homeopath who opened the door to spirituality & getting the mothering she never got as a child.
Now, she’s on a mission to get as many entrepreneurs as possible to turn their aspiring ideas into something they can give and show to others to change the world. She helps them find the way of approaching business that feels most aligned to lead their soul’s work, while doing the necessary shadow work so that you can put yourself out there & trust your path.
We discuss:
🗣️ when you’re behaving like everybody else, you block your unique magic
🗣️ how we can be conditioned to avoid any negative feelings and the parts of ourselves that feel ashamed, guilty or sad
🗣️ the power of getting messy to fuck the matrix
🗣️ the inner work that is necessary to be a successful entrepreneur
🗣️ we are paving the way of a new earth paradigm, it’s unknown and we don’t know what it looks like, but it’s inevitable
🗣️ now is a more important time than ever to pave a new way, even if you don’t have a roadmap or see anyone else doing it - don’t let that stop you
