How to Deal with Fear and Anxiety in Relationships (The Walking on Eggshells Feeling ) Navigating fear and anxiety in relationships—often described as the "walking on eggshells" feeling—can be emotionally exhausting. This sensation arises when you're constantly on edge, trying to manage someone else's reactions while suppressing your own feelings and needs. But the truth is, you have choices. You don't have to stay trapped in this cycle. The first step is to understand where this fear and anxiety stem from. Are you afraid of conflict? Rejection? Or is it tied to a deeper sense of unworthiness or unresolved wounds from the past? Once you've identified the root cause, you can begin to decide how you want to move forward. Here are your choices: 1. Accept them as they are. Sometimes, the person you're dealing with may not change, and it's up to you to decide if you can find peace in accepting them for who they are without losing yourself in the process. 2. Get out of the middle ground and lean into a hard conversation. This means addressing the tension directly and honestly, even if it feels uncomfortable. Speak your truth, set boundaries, and clarify your needs. Hard conversations are often the gateway to deeper connection or necessary clarity. 3. Invite them to a new level of relationship. If the relationship has potential but is stuck in a dysfunctional pattern, you can propose a new way of engaging—a level of honesty, vulnerability, and mutual respect that elevates the connection. This requires both parties to be willing to grow. 4. Continue people-pleasing.* This choice keeps the peace temporarily, but it often comes at the cost of your own emotional health. Over time, it can lead to resentment, burnout, and a deeper disconnect from yourself and the relationship. The key is to recognize that fear and anxiety are signals—not permanent states. They are asking you to take action, make a choice, and step into your power. Whether you choose acceptance, honest communication, or inviting change, remember that the ultimate goal is to honor yourself and create relationships where you feel safe, respected, and seen.

How To Manifest Abundance | Practical Steps Based On Neuroscience and Your Actions This is a chat from my group coaching community, Mastery Circle. We meet every two weeks to talk about life and everything related to how we can step into being a master of our own life. We just finished covering leadership, and now we are talking about all things abundance. Abundance is your birthright. You deserve it right now, no matter what you think about your story. We were put here to feel, to observe, to share, to create, and the more abundant we allow ourselves to feel, the better. It's actually disrespectful to the people who came before you to downplay your life. I'm serious. It's a slap in the face to the people who have died for you to live. Never take this life for granted. Never sit in your sorrow and think that's it. We talked about this at the top of the call. Yes, some emotions are shadows, are darker, and can make us feel like the idea of "abundance" is not for us. I want to validate what you feel first and foremost because we all will. That's called being a healthy human being, and true healing means taking the time to integrate the sorrow, the sadness, and whatever form of anger or grief we may feel. And, since healing means wholeness, that means that we must look at the big picture. That also means you deserve to feel good, to love the life that you have, and to attract abundance in all things. This is not about greed, taking more, or crushing anyone else. Nope, abundance is the idea and energy that you do not move from fear or insecurity to the mindset of lack. Take full ownership of your life and part of that ownership is accepting that you deserve to feel good, work towards meaningful things, and have healthy people in your life.

Below, you'll see the three major sections of today's chat and the time stamps for when each topic starts so you can jump around if you need to or when you come back to this video in the future. If you would like to hire me to be your coach, apply at sylvestermcnutt.net/applyforcoaching - 1:29 - Creating From A Place Of Abundance - 9:10 - Giving Yourself Time Off - 18:12 A Personal Update On Life When creating from scarcity, you create more scarce environments, lack, and anxiety. You are creating from a place of "I'm not worthy." Believe that there is enough for you. Enough money. Enough opportunity. Enough genuine energy. Enough healthy food. Believe that there is a simple life of luxury available to you. When you feel overwhelmed, if you choose to live in an abundance mindset, you easily permit yourself to take things off your plate so you can focus. In life, there are moments when certain things need to be sacrificed for other aspects of your life to thrive. My mindset is that I have to attract quality. I have to go at a pace that is organic for me. I create from the place that works for me because I care about my heart, soul, and everything I do to feel authentic. Are you creating your life from abundance or scarcity? Look at the energy of the two and ask yourself how you are showing up. Make a declaration that you will no longer live in a scarcity mindset. The second you choose to live in abundance, the universe around you and everyone around you will notice the difference. If you consciously choose to free your energy and to be a deliberate creator of your life, what will happen is some people will adjust. Some people will support you, help you on the same page, and support you on the journey. Some people are so deep into their wounds that they can't understand your changes. Neither is your business. Your business is to draw boundaries with people who try to disrupt your energy. Your business opens your heart and space to people who want you to live in a place of abundance. 9:10 - Giving Yourself Time Off Let go of the idea of FOMO. You are not missing out. The concept of "missing out" is taking you away from your life and from appreciating where you are in your journey. When it comes to giving yourself time off, you must understand that being refreshed is always great. Burnout is a real experience, and it gets created and justified by the idea of scarcity. This is why I preach that we must have an abundance mindset. The child version of you may have a scarcity mindset regarding money, dating, or relationships. The child has to move to the back seat, and you have to give the wheel to the adult version of you. The healthy, integrated adult version of you fully believes in abundance. The adult version of you can attract and accept abundance in all aspects of life. What you believe will be true. What you believe will be true. If you believe there is not enough, then that will be true. That will be true if you believe there is enough for you. 18:12 A Personal Update On Life My mom came to visit. It was a moment that touched my soul as it was my mom's first time coming to Arizona. I feel so full and grateful that she could come out here. If you are at all struggling with the relationship with your parents, understand that they won't always be here. People die. Do you want to continue to hold grudges? Do you want to continue having them to standards they can't reach? Get to know them for who they are. No person is perfect. We are all on this journey, learning and figuring things out. Your parents have made mistakes, and there is no doubt about it, but how long will we hold grudges against them? And what I am most concerned with is the consequence of holding these grudges.

Today's podcast is a short summary of my group coaching community conversation this weekend. In our recent live session, we delved into some powerful concepts and strategies to help you achieve mastery in your life and business. Here's a concise summary of the key takeaways: Pareto's Law (80/20 Rule): - Understand that 20% of your efforts often lead to 80% of your results. - Identify the most impactful 20% of tasks or activities and focus on them. - Regularly assess your tasks to ensure you're prioritizing the vital few over the trivial many. Clarity on Your "Why": - Define your purpose, values, and long-term goals. - Understand what truly motivates you and drives your actions. - Revisit your "why" regularly to stay aligned with your aspirations. Identifying Energy Drains and Distractions: - Conduct a thorough audit of your daily activities. - Pinpoint tasks or habits that consume your time and energy without significant benefits. - Develop strategies to eliminate or delegate these distractions. Applying these principles and insights allows you to gain clarity, boost productivity, and focus on what truly matters, ultimately accelerating your journey toward mastery. Keep the momentum going, and stay committed to your growth! I would love to be your coach. Apply here: sylvestermcnutt.net/applyforcoaching

Today, we had a fun talk on Self-compassion. In Mastery Circle, my private coaching community, we reviewed this topic for a full hour. You can go back and get the full chat by joining Mastery Circle. Self-compassion is a psychological concept developed by Dr. Kristin Neff. It involves treating oneself with the same kindness, understanding, and support that one would offer to a good friend in times of difficulty or suffering. It's about acknowledging and validating your emotions and experiences without judgment or self-criticism. Self-compassion encompasses three main components: 1. Self-Kindness: This involves being understanding and gentle with yourself when facing challenges or making mistakes. Instead of being overly critical, you treat yourself with the same kindness you would offer to someone else. 2. Common Humanity: This component emphasizes recognizing that suffering, challenges, and imperfections are part of the shared human experience. It's about understanding that everyone faces difficulties, and you're not alone in your struggles. 3. Mindfulness: Mindfulness involves staying present and aware of your thoughts and emotions without getting caught up in them. It allows you to observe your experiences without judgment and respond to them in a non-reactive and balanced way. Here are three ways you can integrate self-compassion into your life: 1. Practice Self-Kindness in Self-Talk: Pay attention to your inner dialogue. When you make a mistake or face a challenge, respond to yourself with kindness and understanding rather than harsh criticism. Treat yourself as you would a friend in the same situation. 2. Mindful Self-Compassion Meditation: Set aside some time each day for mindfulness meditation focused on self-compassion. During this practice, you can sit quietly, breathe deeply, and direct loving-kindness and understanding toward yourself. You can use phrases like "May I be kind to myself," "May I be patient with myself," and "May I accept myself as I am." 3. Write a Self-Compassion Letter: Imagine you're writing a letter to yourself from the perspective of a compassionate friend. Acknowledge your struggles, offer words of encouragement, and express understanding for the challenges you've faced. This exercise can help you cultivate self-compassion and a sense of connection to your own experiences. Remember, integrating self-compassion takes time and practice. Be patient with yourself as you develop these habits. Over time, self-compassion can lead to increased emotional resilience, improved well-being, and a healthier relationship with yourself.

Understanding The Rhythm and Flow Of Competing Desires.

Let Me Show You How to Change Your Life If I could teach you one thing...one skillset that I KNOW would allow you to be happier and less stressed in your life, it would be boundaries. Boundaries are everything. Identifying our boundaries is how we learn who we are and what we need. We get our priorities straight and finally start putting ourselves first. Setting our boundaries is how we start having healthy and functional relationships. No more people-pleasing, approval-seeking, constant guilt and overwhelm. Keeping our boundaries is how we create the life we want. Full stop. You start saying yes when you mean yes and no when you mean no and cut out the people, places and things that don't align with where you're going. In this course, I will teach you how to build your boundaries, how to communicate and speak up in your relationships and how to keep prioritizing yourself, regardless of how other people react. sign up here: https://app.feelfelt.com/course/ebfe39b8-3bc6-4f18-a1a1-a94f6d128031?utm_source=Sly&utm_medium=Social&utm_id=BuildYourBoundaries

Meet Connor Beaton, the founder of ManTalks. He was raised to believe that being a man meant you had to follow certain rules. The most notable one is like the first rule of Fight Club: don't talk about it. For most of his life, he believed all men had the same rule. Shut up and deal with it. Man up. So that's what he did. Outside, he was successful, funny, and charismatic with a great relationship and rapidly rising career. Inside, he was full of all the pieces he didn't want to talk about or admit to anyone. Every moment of shame, confusion, and anger urged him to lie and manipulate his way into feeling better. The lies kept growing and eventually, he lost someone very important to him and he couldn't lie his way out of it this time. To avoid crushing shame, he shut everyone out and ran. One night, while living in the back of his car, his reality hit him like a ton of bricks. Finally, he had hit rock bottom. He tried everything except confronting all the shame, sadness, and anger he felt. And the whole time, he had told nobody. It was then that Connor realized he only had two options: to continue to hide and silently suffer, or shine light into the deepest corners of himself and start talking about it. Over the next few years, he learned to take his trauma, shame, and denial—all the shadowy parts of himself—and integrate them. He spent thousands of hours learning and training. He consulted psychologists, historians, neurologists, and authors. Connor trained for years under mentors and leaders in Jungian psychology, somatic therapy, and holotropic breathwork. He even apprenticed under a disciple of Carl Jung himself. In 2014, Connor founded ManTalks as a grassroots movement to further the cause: giving men the tools and training to create a truly self-led life. https://mantalks.com/
