Emotional repression is often invisible to high performers, and it can be one of the biggest barriers to sustainable success. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we explore how trauma-shaped survival responses like fight, flight, freeze, and fawn can create patterns of overwork, perfectionism, and emotional disconnection. You'll learn how subconscious repression differs from conscious suppression, how shame and perfectionism drive overachievement, and why even big business milestones can feel hollow when your nervous system isn't safe enough to process emotions. Our guest, Margy Feldhuhn, shares her journey from multi–seven-figure business growth fueled by survival patterns to building capacity for joy, presence, and connection through Neurosomatic Intelligence (NSI) tools and regular emotional processing. We break down the health risks, relational costs, and business consequences of chronic repression and give you strategies to expand your emotional capacity so you can actually enjoy the success you've built.

In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we uncover how the nervous system uses constant motion, through overwork, hustle, and productivity, to escape from internal sensations and emotions that once felt unsafe. You'll learn how fear disguises itself as discipline, why rest feels threatening to high performers, and how chronic busyness creates a false sense of safety while eroding health and connection. From neuroscience to personal stories, Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof explain the mechanisms of the flight response, its roots in trauma, and the protective role it sometimes plays. Most importantly, we share practical somatic tools to slow down, regulate the nervous system, and reclaim fear as a signal for presence and alignment, not something to outrun. 00:00 – Running from internal sensations, not others 00:24 – Busyness and productivity as avoidance 00:43 – Slowing down in somatic therapy 01:33 – Hustler identity and chronic overdoing 02:25 – Flight tied to fear of stillness 03:11 – Welcome to Trauma Rewired 04:15 – Flight patterns: urgency, overscheduling, avoidance 05:13 – When flight signals misalignment 07:46 – Flight as protection against overstimulation 09:31 – Brain-body mechanics of flight 11:50 – Fear bypassed as weakness 13:10 – Trauma and structural reinforcement of flight 15:36 – Movement replacing emotion 17:35 – Somatic healing requires slowing down 18:32 – Signs of inward-directed flight 19:55 – Disconnection from body cues (hunger, fatigue) 23:39 – Somatic regulation steps and tools 25:53 – Fear as primal protective signal 28:12 – Regulation tools to create space between sensation and action 31:24 – Stillness and vulnerability as safety 32:16 – Somatic release of fear: frozen shoulder story 33:28 – Reclaiming emotions as growth tools 34:36 – Fear, intuition, and aligned action Topics Discussed in This Episode: The difference between healthy fear and chronic flight How trauma conditions the nervous system to stay in motion The neuroscience of the flight response: amygdala, hypothalamus, PAG, prefrontal cortex Why productivity and hustle are often survival strategies Signs of chronic flight in relationships and work The hidden cost of avoiding emotions through busyness Somatic tools for slowing down and processing fear Rewiring chronic flight through neuroplasticity and body-based healing The role of cultural and systemic trauma in reinforcing flight How to reclaim fear as a clarifying signal for safety and presence

Ready to break free from burnout and self-sabotage?Join The Capacity Gap Workshop, register FREE at https://rewirecapacity.com The fight response is often misunderstood as a personality flaw, but it's actually a deeply wired survival adaptation shaped by past experiences and trauma. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we explore the difference between healthy, time-bound anger and the chronic fight state, how they're created in the brain and body, and why learning to process anger is essential for emotional safety and healthy connection. You'll learn how the amygdala, hypothalamus, periaqueductal gray, insular cortex, and prefrontal cortex interact during a fight response, and how trauma can train the brain to see threat everywhere. We break down the health consequences of chronic fight, the relational patterns it creates, and why suppression of anger doesn't make it go away — it stores it in the body. From personal stories to neuroscience, this conversation offers tools to recognize the signals of fight mode, regulate your state, and reclaim anger as a clarifying force for setting boundaries and protecting what matters — without living in constant defense mode.

Your brain is constantly scanning your body and environment, deciding in split seconds whether you're safe or unsafe, and those decisions shape everything from your emotions to your physical health. In this episode, we dive into Applied Neurology and Neuro Somatics, revealing how targeted sensory training can rewire your nervous system for greater safety, resilience, and growth. You'll discover the science of neuroplasticity, the impact of sensory deficits, and how trauma reshapes the brain's interpretations. We break down the Inputs–Interpretations–Outputs framework, the Stress Bucket model, and the concept of “neuro tags” that keep old patterns alive, plus practical, high-payoff tools to shift your state in real time. From understanding how systems like vision, balance, proprioception, and interoception influence your thoughts and emotions, to applying daily practices for regulation, this episode blends deep science with actionable strategies. Whether you're a practitioner seeking to integrate nervous system work into your practice or someone ready to move from survival mode into growth and performance, you'll find a clear, practical guide to retraining your brain for safety, adaptability, and lasting change Topics discussed in this episode: How to rewire the nervous system for resilience and growth The Inputs–Interpretations–Outputs framework for nervous system health How sensory deficits impact pain, anxiety, and emotional regulation Using neuroplasticity for trauma healing and behavioral change The Stress Bucket model for understanding overwhelm and shutdown Higg-payoff tools to shift nervous system states instantly How to train vision, balance, proprioception, and interoception Why clear sensory data creates emotional safety How neuro tags keep you stuck in survival mode Daily nervous system training for long-term regulation

What if your constant stress, emotional triggers, and exhaustion aren't a mindset problem, but a sign your nervous system is stuck in survival mode? In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we explore the science of nervous system reset, nervous system regulation, and how to restore the nervous system after chronic stress and trauma. Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof unpack how the autonomic nervous system governs your reactions, why trauma is stored as patterns in the body, and how to begin the process of nervous system recovery without forcing or overwhelming yourself. You'll learn how the sympathetic (fight or flight) and parasympathetic (rest and digest) branches work together, why dysregulation is not a personal failure, and how practices like movement, breathwork, and interoception can help you regulate more effectively. This conversation also covers the difference between “big T” and “small T” trauma, why nervous system healing requires both individual and collective approaches, and how to build resilience so you can meet life's challenges without staying stuck in survival mode. This episode is both a science-backed education and a compassionate guide for anyone ready to experience a genuine nervous system reset.

What if the emotions you were never allowed to feel are the same ones making you sick? In this powerful episode of Trauma Rewired, we explore the lifelong impact of emotional neglect and suppression, and why emotional processing is often the hardest part of healing. From childhood modeling to nervous system adaptations, Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof break down how early emotional neglect leads to emotional insecurity, chronic shame, and deep patterns of dysregulation that affect everything from gut health to fatigue. We unpack how the nervous system stores repressed feelings like sadness and anger, and why “not feeling” is a survival pattern, not a personal failure. This episode walks you through how emotional repression becomes muscle tension, immune suppression, and gut dysfunction, and what you can do to begin feeling again. You'll learn gentle, neuro-somatic practices—like tapping, swaying, and interoceptive awareness—that help you mobilize emotions safely, access your inner signals, and rebuild your capacity to feel. This is not about forcing your way through; it's about creating the conditions where your nervous system finally says, “It's safe now.” This episode is a compassionate guide to the emotional labor you never got to do—and the healing that begins when you finally do. Topics discussed in this episode: ● The connection between emotional neglect and emotional insecurity ● Why emotional processing is stored in the nervous system—not just the mind ● How repression contributes to chronic pain, immune dysfunction, and gut issues ● Understanding shame, freeze, and the reflex to shut down ● Gentle tools for mobilizing emotion: tapping, swaying, movement ● How to train interoception and recognize internal signals ● What chronic fatigue may be telling you emotionally ● The emotional roots of “numbness” and “overwhelm” ● Why your body is holding what your mind avoided ● How to rewire your nervous system to feel safely ● Why healing is about expanding capacity, not fixing emotion Resources mentioned: Explore the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching program: https://neurosomaticintelligence.com/ Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Find Trauma Rewired on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TraumaRewired Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use our exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

Explore the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching Certification: https://neurosomaticintelligence.com/ What if perfectionism isn't ambition, but a nervous system reflex for survival? In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we're joined by returning guest Piper Rose of ShadowPlay Coaching to explore perfectionism and rejection sensitivity through a neuroscience and trauma-informed lens. We reframe perfectionism as a high-cost survival strategy rooted in complex trauma, societal conditioning, and early nervous system adaptations. Together, Elisabeth Kristof, Jennifer Wallace, and Piper unpack how perfectionistic behaviors can emerge as reflexive responses to rejection sensitivity dysphoria (RSD), relational trauma, and the need for social safety. You'll learn the neurobiology of rejection, the health costs of chronic perfectionism, and how to shift from performance and people-pleasing into embodied wholeness. The episode offers practical tools and empowering frameworks for understanding the somatic roots of perfectionism and reclaiming your internal safety and authenticity. This is a deeply validating conversation for anyone who's ever felt like they had to earn love, approval, or belonging through being “perfect.” Topics discussed in this episode: Why perfectionism is a survival response, not a personality trait How rejection sensitivity forms in the nervous system The difference between perfectionism and growth-oriented excellence Why our brains respond to social rejection like physical pain The “garden” metaphor for complex trauma and coping How societal systems reinforce performance-based self-worth Chronic illness and the cost of emotional suppression The link between self-sacrifice and autoimmune conditions Why the nervous system must be regulated before healing perfectionism How somatic work shifts self-rejection into self-acceptance The paradox of people-pleasing and codependency Reclaiming energy and creativity from high-resource coping mechanisms Explore the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching program: https://neurosomaticintelligence.com/ To learn more about Piper Rose and Shadow Play coaching, head to https://piperrosecoaching.com/ Connect with Piper on Instagram by heading to https://www.instagram.com/shadowplaycoaching/ Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Find Trauma Rewired on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TraumaRewired Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use our exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

Explore the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching Certification: https://neurosomaticintelligence.com/ What if the invisible responsibilities you carried as a child are still shaping your adult life? In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we explore parentification—a hidden form of childhood trauma where children are forced to become the emotional or physical caretakers of their parents. Whether you managed your parent's emotions or became “the responsible one” too early, these patterns can wire your nervous system for survival rather than safety—and the impact is long-term. Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof unpack how emotional and instrumental parentification lead to chronic stress, emotional repression, gut dysfunction, and deeply rooted perfectionism. You'll learn why healing isn't about changing your parents, but about reclaiming autonomy in your own nervous system through boundary setting, grief integration, and somatic repatterning. We break down how these early adaptations become nervous system defaults—like freeze, fawn, and shame—and how to begin shifting them using neuro-somatic tools that regulate stress, restore connection, and return you to your body. This episode is both validating and empowering: you are not broken—you were overloaded. And healing starts when you stop carrying what was never yours to hold. Topics discussed in this episode: ● What parentification is and why it's often invisible ● The difference between emotional and instrumental parentification ● How parentification leads to chronic shame, perfectionism, and nervous system dysregulation ● The impact of childhood stress on gut health and inflammation ● How emotional repression starts in childhood and lives in the body ● Why boundaries feel threatening—but are essential for healing ● The link between freeze, fawn, and CPTSD ● How nervous system repatterning rewires your relational responses ● The role of somatic practice in processing stored grief and guilt ● Why your healing won't change others—but it will change you ● How to reclaim your emotional autonomy and rewrite survival-based wiring Explore the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching Certification:https://neurosomaticintelligence.com/ Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Find Trauma Rewired on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TraumaRewired Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use our exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

This is part two of our mini-series on how manifestation works. I talked about how the universe responds to boldness, not hesitation if you don't try, you don't get. I gave a couple real-life stories to show how confidence makes a difference. I also explained that manifestation ain't magic you gotta be clear, stay mentally locked in, and take action. And the biggest key? You attract what you are, not what you say so get your mindset right first, then everything else can fall into place. Show Notes: [00:31]#1 Be bold. [10:52]#2 Do not believe in magic. [14:04]#3 You attract what you are, not what you say. [20:14]Recap Next Steps: ---
In this episode, I'm breaking down how manifestation really works. A lot of people talk about it, but most don't fully understand what it actually means or how to do it with intention. I'm walking you through a simple definition and showing you how to use manifestation on purpose not by accident. This is about getting the results you want in life, on your terms, and making it happen by design. Show Notes: [01:37]#1 Clarity of Outcome [07:44]#2 Your thoughts are the constant instructions. [15:01]#3 Emotion and aligned actions. [20:38]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 1193: Focus: The Force Multiplier Next Steps: ---
In this episode, I'm breaking down what a disciplined man does. Discipline is the foundation of everything we do here. It's the first thing I mention for a reason. I believe the biggest reason society is slipping is because too many men are not handling their business. If men stepped up, things would start getting better real fast. So today, I'm laying out the steps every man needs to follow to be disciplined and do his part. Show Notes: [02:33]#1 A disciplined man is discerning about women and men who make themselves and their offerings too easily available. [09:21]#2 Stick to script and process even when success is "late to the party" [16:06]#3 Disciplined men naturally draw admiration from both women and men for reliability and consistency without trying [21:11]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 3331: How To Avoid Traps 3261: The First 3 Laws Of Economics 1431: Discernment: Your Skill Of Perception And Judgement 3012: Happiness Is NOT The Goal 582: Being Motivated Does Not Require Fun, Joy or Happiness Next Steps: ---
In this episode, I'm breaking down what you should be doing with AI chatbots like ChatGPT right now. And I don't just mean ChatGPT I'm talking about any AI tool out there: Claude, Grok, whatever your favorite is. The key is not which one you use, but how you use it. I also explain why this tech is moving faster than most people realize and how you need to get ahead of the curve starting today. Plus, if you didn't know, I got my own custom chatbot you can try for free DreGPT. Show Notes: [01:56]#1 Replacing Google. [06:18]#2 Get the paid version and create a custom GPT. [15:47]#3 Ask multi-layered questions and get solid directional insights. [22:35]Recap Next Steps: ---
In this episode, I'm talking about why debate culture is useless. You see it all over social media two people arguing just to get views and likes. Most of the time, they don't even believe what they're saying. It's all fake, planned out just to keep people entertained. I don't waste my time on that kind of stuff. I'd rather use my energy on things that actually help me grow, and I know a lot of y'all feel the same way. Show Notes: [04:46]#1 Debates in school are the ones that should be about winning. [11:59]#2 Debates these days are all about the gotcha. [16:04]#3 Actual debate should occur between honest dealers.

In this episode, I'm talking about something a lot of people say to me: “It's not that easy.” And you know what? I agree with them. It's not supposed to be easy, that's the whole point. I've had all kinds of people say this to me over the years, and today I'm explaining why that phrase actually proves why the work matters in the first place. Show Notes: [02:02]#1 The third law of economics. [08:44]#2 If it were easy, everyone would be doing it and everyone will have it and thus it would not be valuable. [17:29]#3 The fact that it's not easy is not a reason to stay away from a thing.

These laws will help you look at your actions and results in a whole new way. Show Notes: [02:01]#1 The law of inertia. [10:16]#2 Force equals mass times acceleration. [15:54]#3 Action and reaction.

Why do some people develop PTSD after trauma while others recover? What if it's not about the trauma itself, but the state of your nervous system when it happens? In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we're joined again by Matt Bush, founder of Next Level Neuro and a lead educator in the Neurosomatic Intelligence program, for a deep dive into the latest PTSD research and how it's reshaping what we know about trauma, memory, and healing. We explore how traumatic memories start out as broad fear associations, and why the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex are essential for integrating those experiences into coherent, time-specific memories. We break down the overlap between PTSD and CPTSD, how trauma affects neurodevelopment in childhood and adulthood, and why nervous system regulation is essential for trauma recovery. You'll learn how practices like somatic movement and proprioceptive training build the brain's capacity to reprocess fear, improve emotional regulation, and create real, lasting change. This episode offers a powerful reframe: healing trauma isn't about reliving the past, it's about training the nervous system to safely reintegrate it. Topics discussed in this episode: ● Why PTSD doesn't depend on the event itself ● How fear memories are stored in the brain ● The role of the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex ● Differences between PTSD and complex PTSD ● How anxiety disrupts fear memory integration ● The brain's adaptive outputs: what symptoms really mean ● Why CPTSD is rooted in relational trauma ● Cerebellum's surprising role in emotional regulation ● Somatic tools to activate memory integration ● How movement helps rewire trauma responses ● Creating safety for nervous system reintegration Explore the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching program: https://www.neurosomatic.com/leadership Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Find Trauma Rewired on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TraumaRewired Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 Connect with Matt Bush: https://www.nextlevelneuro.com/ FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use our exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

In this episode, I wrap up part two of our mini-series on how to be a High Value Woman. I break down the last three points: low sexual history, fitting into a man's program, and feminine presentation. I explain why these things matter both in private and in public, and how they reflect on the man you're with. If you missed part one, go listen to that first. Let's finish what we started.

In this episode, I'm talking about how to avoid traps. A trap is something that looks fun, easy, or like a good deal but in the end, it costs you more than you thought. People fall into traps all the time because they don't see the danger until it's too late. I'm breaking down how to spot these setups before you get caught. This all comes down to discipline and learning to think before you jump. Show Notes: [02:05]#1 Beware of the free lunch. [09:18]#2 Think about your exit strategy before you enter. [14:03]#3 Ask yourself how much, whoever is making the offer, benefits versus how much you benefit.

In this episode, I'm talking about the N-word—what it means, who uses it, and the unwritten rules around it. A recent situation sparked the idea for this topic, but the episode isn't about that specific event. As a Black American, I've used the term myself in the past, so I'm speaking from experience. This is a real conversation that needs to be had, and we're going to break it all down right here. Show Notes: [01:49]#1 You're white, you probably shouldn't use the word.

Today's topic is part two of our series on artificial intelligence — AI is your employee, not your boss. In this class, I break down why you still need to think for yourself even when AI gives you feedback. If you're letting AI run the show, you're not the boss anymore, you're the worker. I also talk about how AI can either replace you or work for you, depending on how you use it. Plus, I introduce my Dre GPT chatbot and tell you how to get access Show Notes: [00:36]#4 When you are using artificial intelligence, you are still required to think, interpret, discern, and decide what to do after receiving feedback from your help. [06:08]#5 Many people falsely believe that the emergence of AI means that you will not have to think as much or do as much because the AI will be doing the work for you. If you think that way you're going to be replaced. [16:06]#6 If you put yourself in a position where AI can work completely independent of you, then in that space you become effectively unnecessary.

In this episode, I'm talking about artificial intelligence. I know a lot of people are using it, but let me be clear, AI is your employee, not your boss. I had a conversation during one of my live streams where some folks got confused. Just because I used ChatGPT to check a fact doesn't mean I need to use it for everything. I'm breaking down why you should use AI as a tool not let it run the show. Show Notes: [02:08]#1 You use AI as necessary and not use it when it's not necessary. [08:03]#2 AI is designed based on the aggregated information grabbed from the Internet. [17:38]#3 You must Learn how to use AI and automation as your employees, not let them use you as your bosses.

This is part three, the final piece of why I'm not a politician. In this one, I break down three more reasons: limited income potential (compared to entrepreneurship), the fact that politics puts your whole life on blast, and how people will lie and attack you just because they disagree. I'm not signing up for that circus — and I explain exactly why. Let's wrap this series up. Show Notes: [00:38]#7 Limited income potential Compared to entrepreneurship. [05:45]#8 Everybody's in your business when you're a politician. [14:23]#9 Logical fallacies abound. [20:59]Recap Next Steps: ---
In this episode, I'm picking up with part two of why I'm not a politician. Today I talk about how I don't like having to answer to people I don't respect, how no matter what you do, half the people will hate it, and how the system is so stuck with red tape you can't get anything real done. You basically get blocked just because of who you are. And that's another big reason why politics ain't for me — but trust me, I've got more coming tomorrow. Show Notes: [00:34]#4 Having to listen to, answer to, or be subordinate to others who have more seniority than me. [07:13]#5 No matter what you do, half the people, actual citizens, will be pissed off at you. [13:46]#6 High levels of bureaucracy means it's hard to get anything substantial done.

In this episode, I'm talking about why I'm not a politician and why I wouldn't be good at it. Some people on my live streams say I'd make a good one, but they don't really get how politics works. Just having good ideas and meaning well isn't enough. There's a big cost that comes with being in politics, and most people don't see that. I'm breaking it all down today and over the next two episodes. Show Notes: [02:00]#1 You have no choice but to lie for a living. [10:09]#2 Lowercase politics. [18:08]#3 Receiving donor money to fund my campaigns. [26:53]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 1667: Dre For President? Governor? Mayor? Why I'd FAIL In Politics Next Steps: ---
In this episode, I'm talking about the discipline problem a lot of men are dealing with right now. Too many guys are slipping, being reckless, not handling their responsibilities, and just not showing up every day like we're supposed to. I've been covering this in other episodes and live streams, but today I'm coming at it from a new angle. This isn't just about personal mistakes it's why society is falling apart. And I'm here to help fill in the gaps for the men who don't even know what they're missing. Show Notes: [03:08]#1 Doing the shit that you know you are supposed to do. [10:36]#2 You must know when the job is done and not overdo it or do it too much. [15:41]#3 Being accurate more than being right.

Today's topic is about what you think other people think of you. I'm using the race conversation specifically the nonsense from race hustlers as the frame, but this really applies to everybody. These folks make money by telling black people that white people hate to see them succeed. But the crazy part is, these same race hustlers usually got their success working for the very people they claim are the problem. I'm breaking it all down and showing you why what others think about you especially when it's based on lies is not your concern. Show Notes: [04:47]#1 It's not your business what other people think of you. [0813]#2 You cannot read nor police thoughts. [17:29]#3 What you think shows in your energy and your actions was projection onto others what you think of you. [26:15]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 1788: Destroying "Antiracism" Next Steps: ---
Today I'm talking about why ambitious men should be monogamous. I know some other guys say different things, and that's cool—but I see it another way. A lot of successful men mess up their careers by getting into drama with women. Most of the time, that doesn't happen to men who are in a real, committed relationship. If you're a man trying to do big things, being with one woman helps you stay focused. Show Notes: [04:33]#1 Your five forms of investment - time, money, attention, energy and focus, all of those need to be going towards your purpose. [14:02]#2 When you start achieving, you're going to start to draw attention that has nothing to do with your purpose. You will be tempted by them. A committed relationship can serve as a guardrail that keeps you focused. [32:33]#3 Rarely do you see a single man become mayor, governor, or president. Because a man who's on a pedestal with power is going to attract women. And that has nothing to do with what you are being hired to do.
