In this episode, I discuss the heavy weight so many gay men carry around daily - the constant need to prove yourself, be productive, stay switched on, and hold it all together. We unpack where this pressure comes from, how it shows up as burnout, imposter syndrome, or overcompensation - and what it actually takes to start feeling safe in your own skin. If you’ve ever felt like rest has to be earned or success is the only way to feel enough… this one’s for you!

In this episode I talk about the one thing that's needed in order to build authentic confidence as a gay man, the one thing needed to create more discipline and motivation on your journey and the one thing that will allow you to finally break-free from all-or-nothing thinking, perfectionism and self-sabotage and learn how to rely on yourself.
After coaching 100's of gay men over the past few years THIS is the big thing that most people are missing but don't want to admit to - and it was the same for me for many years.
I also give you a simple framework to overcome this challenge to step into your potential.
Hope it resonates!
