Episode 3.13: The Friend Connection with J StamatelosWill you be my friend? It's a vulnerable question to ask. And if you're a man, it might even feel like an impossible one. Have you considered the importance of friendships in your life? Not just any friendships, but those deep, meaningful connections that shape who we are? I count myself as a very lucky man, for my world today is filled with deep and satisfying friendships. It wasn't always this way. For most of my life, I had only one or two very close friends. I recognize now what a loss it was to spend all those years without connections. In this episode, I sit down with my frequent guest—and very good friend—J Stamatelos to explore the world of adult male friendships. We delve into why these relationships are so crucial for our mental and physical health, and why it's often challenging for men to form and maintain them. J and I share our own stories, some of which are wounds from our past that still resonate today. We talk about the cultural norms that discourage men from expressing vulnerability and seeking emotional support from each other. But most importantly, we talk about breaking these barriers. You'll hear about the power of vulnerability and how being open about our feelings can lead to stronger, more supportive friendships. This episode is not just for men; it's for anyone who wants to think more about friendships and the profound impact they have on our lives. I invite you to join us for a conversation that could change the way you view and make friendships.So let's get on the road!Connect with J Stamateloshttps://www.jamesjstamatelos.com/#mensmentalhealth   #EmotionalWellness  #VulnerabilityIsStrength  #emotionalhealth  #MentalHealthAwareness  #HealingJourney  #MenAndEmotions  #HolisticHealing  #MentalHealthMatters  #SelfCareForMen #EmotionalIntelligence  #HealthyRelationships  #menshealth  #personalgrowth  #EmbraceYourFeelings  #malefriendships   #mensfriendships  #friends  #friendship  Visit the Authenticity Road website: authenticityroad.onlineConnect with us here.© Authenticity Road, Inc.

It has been said that each of us carries at least one good story: That of our own lives. My guest today is proof of that old adage. His story is one that truly embodies the essence of resilience, transformation, and the power of human connection. In this episode, I welcome my close friend Matthew Parkes. When I first met Matt, I had no idea of his history or the things he'd been through. He simply struck me as a charming and affable fellow. But as our friendship flourished, I became aware of his extraordinary and inspiring personal story. From a near-death experience that turned his life upside down to overcoming severe alcoholism, Matt has faced unimaginable challenges and emerged stronger on the other side. Here, Matt shares his journey through a severe medical crisis, struggles with addiction, and how a community focused on men's emotional health helped him find a new path. It's a story of pain, perseverance, and ultimately, profound personal growth.Beyond the trials, what stands out most is Matt's vulnerability and authenticity. His journey is a testament to the power of facing our deepest fears, leaning into our pain, and finding strength in connection.I invite you to sit back, open your heart, and prepare to be inspired.

Some guys discover the world of men's work, try it out, and discover it's not for them. Perhaps they're not ready to dig in, or the work simply doesn't resonate with them.Others engage in the work and are forever changed. They embark on a journey of discovery, take their discoveries back to their lives, and live the better versions of themselves. They benefit their spouses and partners, their children, and their communities. They make strides toward achieving the growth they've been seeking.There's a third group of men, however, who begin doing the work and recognize that this will be their lifelong mission or their legacy. They get called to a life of service of bringing this approach to emotional healing to every man they meet. That's what happened to me. The work changed me deeply, and I resonated with its power so greatly that it became my ministry to bring this work forward to help men heal their deepest wounds. My guests today fit into that last category. These are men who found the work and recognized that they are called to pay it forward. In this episode, I welcome the founders of Authentc Men: Phillip Gaynor, Dan Kline, and Tom Szigethy. Through their work, they are creating a community in which men can achieve their best selves while recognizing that no man has to do it alone.We think you'll enjoy hearing what they have to say about their journeys, the work, and how their new community can foster connection and healing.

Losing your cool. Flying off the handle. Blowing a fuse. No matter what you call it, we all do it now and then: Get angry.In today's episode, we're taking a deeper dive into this topic that touches every one of us. But this isn't just about the moments when we've seen red; it's about understanding the roots of our rage, navigating our emotions, and ultimately, finding freedom in the ways we respond to the world around us.In this episode, we're joined by James Clemmons, a Marine veteran who's turned his personal battles with anger into a beacon of hope for many. James is the founder of Freedom from Anger LLC, an organization dedicated to helping individuals, especially those who are incarcerated, to manage their anger, reduce stress, and lead healthier emotional lives.Through his work, James has seen firsthand the transformative power of self-awareness, acceptance, and the courage to seek help. We'll explore the physiological responses our bodies have to anger, the societal impacts of unmanaged rage, and how, to paraphrase something James said, 'managing anger doesn't mean eliminating it—it means understanding it.'So, whether you've struggled with anger yourself or know someone who has, this conversation is an invitation to look inward, to challenge our perceptions, and to discover the freedom that comes from truly understanding and managing our emotions.

Lining up guests for the podcast can feel risky at times. Unless the guest is someone I know well—an acquaintance or personal friend—I'm taking a leap of faith that this person and I will have enough to talk about to keep the conversation going for the better part of an hour. The concern might be that the person isn't interesting, or the conversation flags. Or, worse, the person's area of expertise may not align at all with our focus on finding and living one's authentic life. I had a small case of those jitters when I booked today's guest, Kevin Palmieri. Kevin, as founder and co-host of Next Level University, comes from the worlds of podcasting and coaching, but with a decidedly different focus and vibe than is usual for our show. Yet as Kevin and I talked, something interesting happened: Two guys who I thought came from very different places started speaking the same language. And when that happened, I saw how my suppositions could have limited what turned out to be a beautiful interaction.Kevin is an energetic, dynamic, and engaging speaker with a lot to say about personal growth, pursuing our personal authenticity, the power of community, and more.

Do you ever get the feeling that you're somehow different? Like how the world works just isn't right for you? Or maybe you've noticed that your ways of processing your experience don't seem to follow the same patterns as other people's? It could be more than just a feeling. In today's episode, I am excited to introduce you to ADHD life, relationship, and career coach Shane Thrapp. Through Shane's story, we'll explore the nuances of living with both ADHD and autism spectrum disorder — from the struggles to the unexpected gifts. Shane's journey from personal battles to becoming a guide for others serves as a powerful testament to the strength found in embracing our diversity. My conversation with Shane was a complete eye-opener for me, as I didn't realize how much I didn't know about the neurodivergent experience. I think you'll find his impressive journey to discovering and expressing his authenticity unique, surprising, and inspiring. So let's get on the road!About Shane:Shane's mission is to guide those who are neurodivergent on their unique journeys to find acceptance for their authentic self while empowering businesses, educators, and parents to provide the support that neurodivergent people deserve.Connect with Shane:Website - https://www.creatingorderfromchaos.comFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/CreatingOrderFromChaosConsultingMen's ADHD Support Group - https://www.mensadhdsupportgroup.orgMen's ADHD Group FB: https://www.facebook.com/groups/mensadhdsupportgroup#menswork   #selfimprovement   #menshealth  #mensmentalhealth  #mensemotions  #mensemotionalhealth  #personaldevelopment  #personalgrowth   #coaching   #menscoach   #menscoaching  #authenticity   #personalauthenticity   #masculinity  #emotionalhealth  #authenticity #adhd  #autism  #spectrum  #neurodiversityVisit the Authenticity Road website: authenticityroad.onlineConnect with us here.© Authenticity Road, Inc.

We talk a lot on this show about men doing their personal development work and seeking to become the best versions of themselves. We discuss techniques and modalities. We talk about the tools we teach and the behaviors we seek to model. But what does it look like when a man actually does the work and applies these skills to his life?In this episode we welcome my friend and men's work brother Ross Taylor. Unlike many of our guests, Ross is not a professional in the field of personal development. He's neither a coach, facilitator, nor author. He is to my mind something much more impressive: He's a man who has applied his learnings to change his life for the better. Ross is an articulate and insightful proponent and practitioner of the work. We think you'll find him not only an affable and charming fellow to spend some time with, but also a relatable everyman who is making the journey toward his best self.

If you've been listening to the Authenticity Road Podcast over the last two seasons, you know that Jordan and I both came to this work via EVRYMAN and the somatic method they teach. For some time, though, I've been considering that there's more than one way for men to pursue their personal and emotional development. With that in mind, we're kicking off our third season of the show—our 51st episode—with a guest whose name may be familiar to many in the world of men's work: Boysen Hodgson.  Boysen is a dedicated husband and dad. He's a fiercely optimistic advocate for men's transformation. And—if you've seen his name in your inbox—it's likely as a result of his role as Communications Director for the ManKind Project USA. I will own that I entered our conversation with a bias and more than a few preconceived notions about the ManKind Project, what they stand for, and how they do the work. I was delighted to have my views challenged and to learn quite a lot about this longstanding and impactful organization. Whether or not you're familiar with ManKind Project, you'll no doubt find much to think about in what Boysen has to say. So let's get on the road!About BoysenBoysen Hodgson is the Communications Director for the ManKind Project USA, a nonprofit organization hosting transformational programs and supporting men's groups serving over 10,000 men every week. He's the co-creator of the ManKind Podcast, a show that invites listeners to expand their perspectives on manhood, and he's the author of “The New Macho,” a credo for emotionally mature masculinity. Boysen has nearly two decades experience facilitating men's groups.

As we mentioned last time, it's often said that we shouldn't talk about money, politics, and religion in polite society. Well, we're going to throw one more taboo topic into the mix: Sex.In part two of our season finale, we continue our chat with repeat guest, self-relationship coach and IFS practitioner J. Stamatelos. In this part of our conversation, we dive into a topic that has both fascinated and confounded humanity for millennia: the complex intersection between religion and sexuality. It's an important discussion, because the way religion perceives and regulates sex has real-world consequences—whether that's related to gender roles, reproductive rights, or sexual education. The teachings and traditions we grow up with can deeply impact our self-esteem, relationships, and even our mental health. And although we're speaking from inside our religious experience, this of course goes beyond just one religion or one cultural context.With of all that said, it's time to venture into the provocative, the sacred, the sensual, and possibly the scandalous.

It's often said that the three topics one should avoid in polite society are money, politics, and religion. In this episode, the first half of our two-part season finale, we're going to risk being impolite and broach the subject of religion. Specifically, we're diving into a topic that has puzzled philosophers, shaped civilizations, and sparked countless debates: the intersection of religion and authenticity. That is, can our spiritual beliefs coexist with our true selves? Or does religion sometimes pressure us into feeling we need to be someone we're not?Followers of the Authenticity Road Podcast are familiar with our repeat guest, self-relationship coach and IFS practitioner J. Stamatelos. We're delighted to welcome J. back for his fourth appearance on the show. As someone who has spent considerable time and study in this area, and who encounters the effects of religion on clients in his IFS practice, J. brings a unique lens to how we integrate religious doctrine while striving to be our most authentic selves.So be warned: This is not a conversation for the faint of heart. It may challenge you, ignite your curiosity, and perhaps even help you discover a more authentic you.So let's get on the road!Connect with J.:https://www.jamesjstamatelos.com#menswork   #selfimprovement   #menshealth  #mensmentalhealth  #mensemotions  #mensemotionalhealth  #personaldevelopment  #personalgrowth   #evryman   #coaching   #menscoach   #menscoaching  #IFS  #religion  #authenticity   #personalauthenticity    Visit the Authenticity Road website: authenticityroad.onlineConnect with us here.© Authenticity Road, Inc.

If you look back to our first season, you'll notice that many of our episodes featured just Jordan and me talking, with no outside guests. This season, we did things a little differently as we shifted our attention to bringing in guests on a wider range of topics. Given that, we've only had time so far for one episode of us talking to each other. As we are nearing the end of season two—with only two more episodes left after this—we thought it was high time for one more exclusively Ettore and Jordan episode.In this episode, we have a chat about how our journey in the men's work arena is evolving. The focus here is particularly on Jordan as he is spreading his wings to expand his work beyond the confines of the community in which we've spent much of our time over the past few years. As the conversation continues, we also home in on some of the reasons behind this shift and delve into a few questions that I have about Jordan's shift and approach to things.And while it may seem at first that this conversation is narrowly focused on only his experience, you may find that the issues we raise and what's going on for both of us in our evolving men's work journey also resonate with where you are, where you've been—or maybe even where you are going.We hope you'll enjoy this “just the two of us” episode.

One of the great things about podcasting is that I regularly get to meet and have in-depth conversations with fascinating people whose paths I would almost certainly never cross anywhere else. Today's guest, author, speaker and drum circle facilitator Andrew Ecker, is one such person. In this interview, Andrew weaves the rich tale of his life's story, how he found his authentic self, and how that brought him to help others through the tradition of drum circles and sound medicine. We think you'll find this a unique and fascinating journey. So let's get on the road!About Andrew EckerAndrew Ecker, author of the The Sacred 7, Apache “NDE”, Irish and German American. Born into an inheritance of trauma, both his parents were addicted to drugs and died very young. Mom, Kathy Lindsey, died from a cocaine overdose whereas Father, Dale Ecker, from HepC caused from intravenous drug use. Growing up in the height of the Reagan and Clinton “War on Drugs” policies led Andrew down a path of destruction that included cocaine and heroin abuse until he made a decision to change his life while serving 3.5 years in federal prison for drug charges. Andrew found healing in his life through the use of ancient technologies including drumming and a ceremonial introduction process of his Native American ancestry he outlines in his book The Sacred 7.Find out more:Andrew's book: The Sacred 7  (thesacredseven.com)Drumming Sounds (drummingsounds.com) Visit the Authenticity Road website: authenticityroad.onlineConnect with us here.© Authenticity Road, Inc.

Before we press the record button for an episode, we let our guests know that we don't necessarily have a list of questions prepared for them, but instead prefer to get the jalopy rolling and then follow the energy where it leads. This interview, with our dear brother, friend and co-facilitator Aaron Musicant, is a prime example of “following the energy” at work. One thing is said early in our talk that steers us onto what will be our path for much of the show. Call it an accidental conversation about fathers. Aaron and I find ourselves talking about our fathers, what it's like to be fathers to our children, and how to be fathers to ourselves. Later in the show, we chat about our men's work, friendship, family and more. The common connector throughout the conversation is the tender and intimate nature of it. This might just be our most vulnerable episode yet. The trust and safety that was present for us is palpable. We hope you'll enjoy this special moment between brothers.

In this episode we continue our discussion with certified life and executive coach Brent Boeckman. In our last encounter with Brent, we heard about how he hit bottom and found his way back.

We have a saying in the world of men's work: This stuff works.  Men show up with their traumas, busted relationships, self-limiting thoughts and destructive behaviors, and by doing the work, over time, they learn to feel, and regulate, and re-associate with their higher selves. They become better husbands, better dads, and better versions of themselves. Our guest for this episode and the next is Brent Boeckman. Brent is a certified life and executive coach based in Austin, Texas. He is trained in somatic experiencing, behavior and cognitive change, as well as executive coaching and career guidance. But beyond all that, Brent is an inspiring, real-world example of what can happen when a man does his work. He is living proof that that — truly — this stuff works. We think you'll be fascinated by Brent's story of how he hit bottom, what brought him there, and how he found his way back to redemption.

If you're a frequent listener, you may recall our Mystery Guest from a few episodes back. He stopped by for a live men's work session with Jordan. Well, Mystery Guest is back, and this week it's Ettore's turn. In this episode, Ettore will lead our mystery man in a live session. As you listen, remember that we've concealed this man's identity to protect his privacy and create a safe space for him to do his work. Also, portions of the recording have been edited for privacy and length. One example is that you'll hear the man reference the meditation, but that has been removed for time. We hope you'll enjoy hearing this man as he confronts what is present for him.

When you hear the word "malnutrition," you may jump immediately to images of people living in abject poverty, famine-stricken lands, or other extreme situations. However, malnourishment can strike anyone—even the most affluent among us. And when that happens, what is the link between malnutrition and emotional trauma? In this episode, we speak with Stacy Tucker, a trauma nurse, nutrition researcher, and acupuncturist. When our nervous system is out of balance, Stacy tells us, we aren't able to convert food efficiently and these imbalances can ultimately lead to emotional struggles. Stacy is sought after not only for her healing powers as a practitioner, but also for the science behind her pioneering organic nutrition product line. We're delighted that Stacy was able to take time out of her busy schedule to speak with us. We think you'll find her as fascinating as we do.

Addiction comes in many forms. Most of them are difficult to conceal. Whether it's drugs, alcohol, or gambling, the outward effects of addiction are often easily visible to the family, friends, and coworkers of the addict. However, porn addiction—the compulsive dependence on pornography that interferes with the ability to function—can remain largely undetected. And yet the fallout is quite real. In addition to the shame and guilt one might feel, there is also the risk of the inability to perform sexually without porn, alienation of spouses and partners, and disconnection from relationships, work, or other activities. The advent of high-speed internet has kicked the problem into overdrive, as addicts now have access to a nearly unlimited stream of addictive resources. In this episode, we speak with coach, author and speaker Joshua Shea. Josh specializes in the realm of addiction, with a particular focus on pornography addiction. He addresses the concerns not only of those with a porn addiction, but also the issues that come with being a partner of a porn addict, and raising children in the age of high-speed internet access. Josh has been pornography-free since March 2014, and he believes that if we can begin to talk more about porn addiction and mental health, we'll see rates of addiction drop.  Because the topic is sex, many folks are reluctant to have a frank discussion around the mental health implications of this disease. But this is a vital conversation that we need to be having. We hope you'll find our talk with Josh to be revealing and informative. So let's get on the road!About Joshua SheaJoshua Shea is a pornography addiction expert, certified betrayal trauma coach, therapeutic disclosure specialist and the author of four books about pornography addiction, including He's a Porn Addict…Now What? An Expert and Former Addict Answer Your Questions (2022) focusing on the trauma partners feel when learning their loved one has an issue with pornography.Since 2018, Joshua has given more interviews about pornography addiction and betrayal trauma than anybody in the world. To date, he has internationally appeared on nearly 400 podcasts, television and radio shows using his wealth of research and personal story to promote the ideas that porn addiction spans all demographics and those with a problem should seek help before it's too late. He also speaks extensively about the issue of working through betrayal trauma, especially with the partners of addicts and those who are facing infidelity.Prior to admitting his 24-year addiction to pornography (and 22-year addiction to alcohol) in 2014, Joshua was a prominent magazine publisher, award-winning journalist, film festival founder and politician in central Maine.In 2017, Joshua launched RecoveringPornAddict.com which morphed into today's PAddictRecovery.com He has also contributed articles about recovery to TheFix.com and Recovery Today magazine, is a TEDx Talk speaker and has developed and presents a porn addiction educational presentation series for colleges, churches, libraries and other groups. Sober since April 2014, Joshua still lives in Central Maine with his wife and two children. The current animal count is four dogs and seven cats, but it's ever-changing.Other books by Shea include: He's a Porn Addict… Now What?

If you've been paying attention this season, you might have noticed that the first fourteen episodes have all had one thing in common. Each has had a guest. Episode 15 is different. This time around, it's just Jordan and me. In this episode, we check in to discuss what we've been up to and what's going on for us these days.

This one is dedicated to all the dads out there. Take a moment and ponder the question: Why are fathers important? What does modeling the healthy version of being the male parent bring to a child's developing nervous system? How does a child benefit from witnessing the safety of healthy masculinity? And what does it look like to be a present, engaged, and connected dad?In this episode, we speak with Brad Golphenee, a professional life coach who specializes in somatic experiencing and working with those in life transitions. He is not only a dad himself, but also works with men, individually and in groups, on issues around fatherhood. In addition to all of that, Brad is a beloved teacher, mentor, and friend to both Jordan and Ettore. We could not be more honored and excited that he has agreed to spend this time with us.

Frequent listeners of the show will have heard your intrepid hosts mention that we are somatic men's work coaches and facilitators. And you may have wondered exactly what that means. Since some might be unfamiliar with this kind of coaching, we thought it would be interesting to provide a view into what the work actually entails. In this episode, we welcome a mystery guest whom Jordan leads in a  live men's work session. Whether we're working in groups or one on one, creating a safe container is the first task in leading a man deeper into his experience. Therefore, we've concealed our mystery man's identity to protect his privacy and create a safe space for him to do his work. We hope you'll find this exploration fascinating and informative.

We have been lucky enough to have both Andrew Kippen and Mike Sagun as guests on Season One of the Authenticity Road Podcast. If you've heard those episodes, you know that they are high points in our show's history. Mike and Andrew bring such wisdom, knowledge, good humor, and love that any opportunity to share space with them is an enlightening experience. At the EVRYMAN MELT in Joshua Tree in March 2023, Andrew and Jordan were together on the facilitation team, and Ettore was there, too (as a participant this time around). We approached Andrew about being on the show again. He said he'd do it, but only if Mike Sagun was there with him. Accepting his challenge, we set out to make it happen.It took some coordination—across three time zones and three countries—but one Saturday morning, we got all four of us together in the studio for this friendly chat. We hope that you'll enjoy this fun and wide-ranging episode, and that you'll appreciate these men as much as we do.

You likely know that the vast majority of victims of sexual violence, abuse, or rape are women and girls. Yet, it's important to recognize that men and boys also can be victims of sexual violence. Currently, about 14% of reported rapes involve men or boys, 1 in 6 reported sexual assaults is against a boy and 1 in 25 reported sexual assaults is against a man. Keep in mind that these are merely the number of reported incidents. Given our society's outmoded beliefs around male sexuality—and the man box training that doesn't permit us to acknowledge our victimhood—many men and boys make the difficult choice not to report sex crimes committed against them. Men and boys who are sexual assault victims are at increased risk of depression, suicide or substance abuse, experience work or school problems, and can develop difficulties in connecting with friends and family.It's time to increase awareness around the risks of sexual violence that men and boys face, and to work to create safe environments that can foster healing for victims.In this episode, we talk with rape crisis counselor and author Robert Uttaro. Bobby is an activist and advocate for survivors of sexual violence. He works as a counselor for victims and their significant others, and facilitates workshops that unpack the realities of sexual violence and offer strategies for support and prevention with a focus on healing. Bobby's book To the Survivors: One Man's Journey as a Rape Crisis Counselor with True Stories of Sexual Violence gives a voice to those who have been victimized and provides a forum for them to tell their stories in their own words. This is a sensitive topic, so we recommend that you exercise self-care in listening. We hope you'll find this discussion informative and helpful. So let's get on the road!About Robert UttaroRobert Uttaro is currently in his 12th year as a rape crisis counselor and community educator. Inspired by his undergraduate studies in Criminal Justice, he continues to embrace a lifelong commitment to activism and advocacy for survivors of sexual violence. Serving as a counselor, Bobby supports rape survivors and their significant others through myriad emotional, spiritual, and legal issues. He also facilitates workshops that unpack the realities of sexual violence, and offers strategies for support and prevention with a focus on healing.

What does it take to become one with yourself? Is that even possible? If you live your life largely looking outward and not inward, you may not create a deep connection with yourself, so you may make decisions that seem exciting in the short run but may not be right for you in the long run. Can you instead train yourself to achieve clarity of thought and consistently make choices that lead to peace? In this episode, we welcome Tarun Gulati, founder of a mental wellbeing company called Adios, an acronym for A Dialogue In Objective Silence. Tarun has found that a regular habit of contemplation based in a specific set of principles strengthens your self-connection. He believes that people are not unhappy; they are unclear. He says that clarity of thought and peace of mind are skills, not gifts. And they are skills that you can learn. We think you'll find Tarun's approach to a more peaceful life both fascinating and enlightening. So let's get on the road!Connect with TarunTo start your journey with Adios, please go to www.adiosworld.com.To find a meaningful partner for yourself, please go to www.LoveIsVenus.com.#menswork   #selfimprovement   #menshealth.  #mensmentalhealth.  #mensemotions  #mensemotionalhealth.  #personaldevelopment.  #personalgrowth.   #evryman. #mindfulness  #contemplation  #peace  #personalpeace  Visit the Authenticity Road website: authenticityroad.onlineConnect with us here.© Authenticity Road, Inc.

If you've been following the show this season, you know that we've been focusing more on specific topics and having conversations around very distinct issues. However, this episode is a little different. Today's show has no specific topic, and no agenda. This time, the show is just a conversation with someone Ettore personally finds extraordinarily charming and engaging.Douglas Robbins is a writer with a slew of novels under his belt and the host of the popular Den of Discussion podcast. In this wide-ranging discussion, Ettore and Doug touch on the search for finding truth through art, metaphysics and the supernatural, and—most importantly—the significance of men's work in helping men heal themselves and world around them. We think you'll find Doug to be charming and engaging, too, and we hope you'll enjoy this fun and candid conversation. So let's get on the road!About Douglas RobbinsDouglas Robbins began his writing career at a young age when one of his teachers asked the class to write a poem. In that moment he found a power in words that he never had found anywhere else. According to Doug, “As time passed, I started to write more seriously because it was the only profession that ever made sense. It wasn't so much a career move; it was a move out of necessity.”Doug grew up, attended college, then joined the workforce but continued to write in his spare time. Frustrated with one dead-end job after another, he finally decided to take his chances with the only profession that ever made sense.

Have you been the victim of a bully or an abuser? Or maybe you played the part of the perpetrator. Did you experience violence at the hands of other males and then perpetuate that cycle? If you're like most men, you've experienced violence from or committed it against other men. It's such an ingrained part of our culture, that you may not even recognize it. This is the insidious way that the patterns of male on male violence continue to repeat. We enculturate our boys with it—consider superheroes or the glorification of inflicting pain on opponents in certain sports—and we carry that trauma forward into our adult lives. In this episode, we take a deeper look at the roots of this phenomenon and talk about how to stop the cycle. In this episode, we welcome Brad Mewhort, an expert in male on male violence. Brad is the author of the book, The Peaceful Man: Heal Within Yourself the Personal Effects and Historic Patterns of Male-on-Male Violence. Brad joins us to speak about his mission to prevent male-on-male violence and end physical bullying. This is a necessary conversation for every man to consider. We hope you'll give a listen and ponder how you can help stop the cycle of violence. About Brad:Brad has a mission to prevent male-on-male violence and end physical bullying. In his adolescence, he was a victim of physical bullying and became an occasional bully himself.

If you listened to the first two parts of Adam Call's remarkable tale of self-discovery, you know that his was truly a once in a lifetime journey. Armed with little more than a backpack, a camera, and a copy of The Alchemist, Adam set out into the world. In this episode, Adam recounts the final part of his big adventure, including a startling chance encounter in Israel, a close call with Israeli security forces, walking over the border into Jordan, sharing tea with strangers in a cave in Petra, spending 24 hours on a desert rock, wandering with camels in Wadi Rum, and hearing language in the wind. He then heads into Egypt where he makes a romantic connection, spends 10 days in an eco-commune, and ultimately makes it to the pyramids, where he has his final epiphany. In the end, Adam shares with us his surprisingly simple, but immensely powerful discovery about his journey and himself. We think you'll be astounded by the final part of Adam's story. So let's get on the road!#menswork   #selfimprovement   #menshealth.  #mensmentalhealth.  #mensemotions  #mensemotionalhealth.  #personaldevelopment.  #personalgrowth.   #evrymanVisit the Authenticity Road website: authenticityroad.onlineConnect with us here.© Authenticity Road.

For every human seeking to discover their personal authenticity, there is a road to self-discovery. For some of us, the road is rocky and uneven; for others, it's clean and smooth. But for each and every one of us, the road is one we must embark on alone. Adam Call took that journey—literally—by traveling around the world to find out who he really is. In the previous episode of this story , we found out how Adam discovered that his life was not working and how he came to the conclusion that he had to hit the road to find himself. Armed with a passport and a copy of Paolo Coelho's The Alchemist, Adam set forth on his own hero's journey.In this episode, we follow Adam as he continues his global trek for self discovery. Along the way, he lands in Morocco, Paris, Italy, Prague, Istanbul and Cappadocia. He ends up in Israel where a meditation turns into a life-changing experience. You're sure to be inspired by his story. #menswork #selfimprovement #menshealth #mensmentalhealth #mensemotions #mensemotionalhealth #personaldevelopment #personalgrowth  #evrymanVisit the Authenticity Road website: authenticityroad.onlineConnect with us here.© Authenticity Road.

Behind the inspiration of Authenticity Road was a fairly straightforward notion: That for each of us doing the work to find our personal authenticity, there is a road to discovery. For some the road is rocky and uneven; for others clean and smooth. But for all of us, the road is one we embark on alone. When I first conceived of Authenticity Road, I assumed it was a metaphor. And then I met Adam Call. In his personal journey, he turned that metaphor on its head by literally traveling the world to find his authentic self.  Over the next three episodes, Adam will be our guide for the most fascinating and unique path to self discovery I've ever witnessed. It might seem odd to devote all this time to one story. But when you hear the truths Adam shares, the growth he experienced, and the insights he gained, you'll understand the enormous impact his story has had on those who know him.In this episode, Adam realizes that something needs to change. Carrying little more than a passport and a backpack, he sets out on his journey os self-discovery.#menswork #selfimprovement #menshealth#mensmentalhealth#mensemotions #mensemotionalhealth#personaldevelopment#personalgrowth #evrymanVisit the Authenticity Road website: authenticityroad.onlineConnect with us here.© Authenticity Road.

Here's a question just for the guys: What's your physical and emotional connection to your male friends? For most of us, physical contact and emotional support between men can only happen in really specific situations. As a man, how often do you actually get the opportunity to express physical affection and emotional connection toward other men? Healthy levels of physical contact and emotional support contribute to men's feelings of joy, connection and purpose in life. Unfortunately, in the United States social stigmas make it difficult for men to access healthy levels of male contact and support. This leads us to higher levels of loneliness, detachment, depression and poor health.In this episode, we speak with leadership and life coach, Louis Chabrier. Louis is the creator of The Male Embrace, a practice designed to help men experience physical connection, emotional support and deep relaxation through a combination of emotional awareness work and physical holds. Join us as we engage with Louis and learn how we can all experience the healing power of touch.Connect with Louis Chabrier:https://themaleembrace.comhttps://bummockcoaching.com#menswork #selfimprovement #menshealth#mensmentalhealth #mensemotions #mensemotionalhealth#personaldevelopment #personalgrowth #evryman #themaleembrace #malephysicalcontactVisit the Authenticity Road website: authenticityroad.onlineConnect with us here.© Authenticity Road.

Do you tend to process things more deeply than those around you? Do you get overloaded when there's too much information coming in? Are you empathic, tending to process emotions very deeply? Are you aware of subtle sensory information around you that others overlook?  If this sounds like you, you might be a Highly Sensitive Person.  Highly sensitive people experience unique challenges—and those challenges are even greater in our society for men with high sensitivity. On today's show, we speak with author and coach, William Allen. In 2016, Bill began his blog, The Sensitive Man, about his experiences, as a highly sensitive man. The blog became the genesis of his book, Confessions of a Sensitive Man. Bill feels that highly sensitive men need to take their insights and intuition and make them public. He would like to shed more light on highly sensitive males and the much-needed role they need to take in our society.We think you'll enjoy our fascinating conversation on this unique topic.Websites:www.thesensitiveman.com www.brainpilots.comSocial media:https://www.facebook.com/thesensitivemanhttps://www.facebook.com/zallenw https://www.linkedin.com/in/wrallen/https://twitter.com/TheSensitiveMa1 www.Instagram.com/zallenwBooks: Confessions of a Sensitive Man, An Unconventional Defense of Sensitive MenOn Being a Sensitive Man, Success Strategies for Harnessing Your Highly Sensitive Nature#menswork #selfimprovement #menshealth#mensmentalhealth #mensemotions #mensemotionalhealth#personaldevelopment #personalgrowth #evryman #highlysensitiveman #highlysensitivemale #highlysensitivepeople #williamallen #billallenVisit the Authenticity Road website: authenticityroad.onlineConnect with us here.© Authenticity Road.

Are you enough? Do you feel as if—no matter how much you achieve—you're still less than? Incomplete? Simply not enough? Believe it or not, you're very much not the only one feeling that way. Many people, especially those under age 40, experience a chronic lack of self-worth. It doesn't have to be this way.In this week's episode, Jordan and Ettore speak with J Stamatelos, a self-relationship coach and IFS practitioner about Enough, his book-in-progress which delves into the Anxious Insecurity epidemic. In this conversation, they touch on what Anxious Insecurity is, why it is, and most importantly, how we can heal these painful feelings.Enough is a thoroughly researched exploration of two major questions: Why do so many Americans battle chronic insecurity, and what interventions actually work in resolving it? J makes heavy use of academic research and evidence-based modalities in his work. Real-life results—not theory of guesswork—play the central role. However, there is more work to be done to bring his book to the public. If you believe you have something to contribute to this conversation or can help bring this work to a larger audience, please get in touch. Or if you're suffering, connect with J to schedule a session.Find more information about Enough here.You can reach J via the contact form on his website, jamesjstamatelos.com.#menswork #selfimprovement #IFS #internalfamilysystems #menshealth #mensmentalhealth #mensemotions #mensemotionalhealth #personaldevelopment #personalgrowth #evryman Visit the Authenticity Road website: authenticityroad.onlineConnect with us here.© Authenticity Road.

If you've been following the Authenticity Road podcast this season, you've no doubt heard Jordan and Ettore talking about the five primary emotions: anger, fear, joy, sadness, and shame. They've dedicated previous episodes to tackling them all. Except one: Joy. In this week's episode, the Season One finale, the guys spend some time unpacking their thoughts around joy, where they find it, and how they increase it in their lives. After that, they turn their attention to the end of their first season as podcasters and engage in a bit of self-reflection. They take a quick victory lap about what they've accomplished, they talk about their highs and lows, and they consider what they might take on in Season Two. But before they dive in, Jordan and Ettore want to extend enormous gratitude to everyone who has listened and for all the kind words and encouragement. Thank you!#menshealth #mensmentalhealth #mensemotions #mensemotionalhealth #personaldevelopment #personalgrowth #evryman 

It often seems that the people who are most confident, those most firmly assured they have nothing to prove, are the ones with the greatest ability to be generous and humble. This week's very special guest—our friend and brother Ceasar F. Barajas—is just that type of man. Ceasar is a wellness mentor, an activist, a men's work facilitator, a professional performer, and a U.S. Navy Veteran. And yet, despite his innumerable accomplishments, he gives freely of his time and his talents, and he offers his gifts with the greatest humility and love. Ettore had the rare and enlightening opportunity to sit with Ceasar for an intimate discussion. Along the way, we learn about Ceasar's history, his fascinating life stories, his journey to doing the work, how he guides others in the work, being real, facilitating difficult conversations, and so much more. Ceasar even drops the secret for where to get the best chocolate chip cookies. We think you'll be fascinated by this vulnerable conversation.Resources mentioned in this episode:The Journey with CeasarVeterans Yoga ProjectFollow Ceasar on InstagramThe best chocolate chip cookie (This is not an affiliate link!)#menshealth #mensmentalhealth #mensemotions #mensemotionalhealth #personaldevelopment #personalgrowth #evryman

"Sometimes we connect with people for reasons we don't entirely understand," Ettore says. "That's how I feel about my dear friend and brother Michael Tennant. I recognized from our first interaction that he is a special human with whom I felt a unique and immediate connection." Michael is a CEO, a diversity and mental health advocate, a recognized empathy expert, and the creative mind behind the Actually Curious conversation card game. "In full disclosure, life has gotten in the way over the past year, so Michael and I have not had as many opportunities to connect as I would have liked. This recording session could be considered a kind of hybrid: It's not only a podcast interview but also our first extended conversation. Consider this a rare window into the unfolding of a beautiful new friendship."Along the way, the men talk about Michael's journey, showing up as our most vulnerable selves, “being where your feet are,” leadership, the Five Phases of Empathy, and so much more. We hope you'll enjoy sharing this intimate chat.

You've no doubt heard Jordan and Ettore speak on the podcast about the EVRYMAN men's work community. EVRYMAN is a global community of men who come together to challenge and assist one another in their personal growth. EVRYMAN provides men with tools, resources, and community to proactively support their emotional health and build deep, meaningful relationships."Like so many other men," Ettore says, "I owe much of my personal growth and emotional healing to them. Given that, we thought our listeners might find it interesting to take a deeper dive into this extraordinary organization. We are honored to welcome CEO and Co-Founder Lucas Krump. I met Lucas early on in my EVRYMAN experience, and have been continually impressed by his kindness, his clear-eyed leadership, his commitment to his fellow humans, and his vision." In this conversation, Lucas and Ettore chat not only about the organization, but also about Lucas' personal journey, entrepreneurship, choosing a life of service, the benefits of men's work, and the depth of men's emotional lives. Lucas is a brilliant speaker, and you're sure to find him mesmerizing. #menshealth #mensmentalhealth #mensemotions #mensemotionalhealth #personaldevelopment #personalgrowth #evryman
