Connor Beaton breaks down the cultural narrative that's convinced boys they're faulty from birth, how fatherlessness and job market discrimination created the perfect storm, and why suppressing emotions doesn't make you stronger, it makes you fragile. Mike opens up about losing his mum at 11 and how that shaped every relationship since, never processing the grief properly, just getting on with it. Connor explains how unprocessed pain doesn't stay quiet, it sabotages your relationships, your business, your health until you deal with it. The conversation covers why male guides matter more than therapists for men with father wounds, how emotional consistency beats sexual polarity in relationships, and why confronting hardship is how you actually mature instead of staying stunted.00:00 Introduction01:55 Addressing struggles faced by young men today06:32 Cultural perception of masculinity affecting men11:53 Gaming and other distractions are hindering ambition20:58 Effects of losing a parent on emotional development26:26 Processing grief and emotional expression30:51 Importance of processing pain for mental health38:10 Recognising when professional help is needed44:30 Gender of therapist influencing therapeutic outcomes50:11 Navigating vulnerability in relationships with women56:13 Pushing gender roles and their societal impacts1:09:52 Influence of social media on relationship dynamics1:25:14 Feminism's impact on modern gender relations1:30:08 Misleading influencer messages on masculinity1:35:21 Redefining what it means to be an alpha male» Escape the 9-5 & build your dream life - https://www.digitalplaybook.net/» Transform your physique - https://www.thrstapp.com/» My clothing brand, THRST - https://thrstofficial.com» Discover Bioniq Lab peptide products- https://bioniqlab.com/mike1010% off with code MIKE10» Join our newsletter for actionable insights from every episode: https://thrst-letter.beehiiv.com/» Join Whoop and get your first month for free - join.whoop.com/FirstThingsThrst» Follow ConnorInstsagram: https://www.instagram.com/mantalks/?hl=enWebsite: https://connorbeaton.com/

Text A2A to 33777 to stay in the know about our upcoming Awareness to Action Course!Carl Jung said that when a man deals with his own shadow, he does something real for the world. On this episode of Men Talking Mindfulness, host Will Schneider sits down with Connor Beaton, founder of Man Talks and author of Men's Work, to get into what shadow work actually looks like for men and why most of us have been trained since childhood to avoid it.Connor explains why men tend to carry a denser shadow than women. Masculine culture teaches strength through suppression. Stuff it down, hide the weakness, perform. The result is that the parts of yourself you've rejected... anger, vulnerability, self-compassion... don't go away. They go underground. And they start running the show from there.Connor walks Will through the mechanics of how anger gets repressed and creates the nice guy pattern, how shame gets used on boys to gain compliance and then keeps grown men living small, and what he calls shame-based motivation... using pain as fuel to achieve, which works until it doesn't.Connor shares his own story of bottoming out in his late twenties, living in the back of a Pontiac G5, apprenticing with a Jungian mentor, and the conversation with a close friend that changed everything. He and Will get into relationships as mirrors for shadow, the difference between guilt and shame, psychedelics and the default mode network, and why the real work for men is growing down into yourself rather than always building up and out.What you'll hear in this episode:Why masculine culture creates a denser shadow through suppressionThe nice guy pattern and what happens when anger goes undergroundShame-based motivation and why it has a shelf lifeConnor's crisis story and the two things that pulled him outSeparating personhood from behavior and why it matters for fathers and sonsRelationships as the clearest mirror for your shadowPsychedelics, the default mode network, and accessing the unconsciousGrowing down instead of growing up as the real path to maturityConnor's book: Men's Work Connor's website: ManTalks.com Man Talks Alliance: ManTalks.com (courses, live calls, community) Connor's platforms: Instagram, YouTube, SpotifyFull episode: https://pod.fo/e/33c406Text MTM to 33777 for updates on new episodes and resources from Focus Now Training.Jon's book, DIAL in Your Leadership: 4 Non-negotiables for Leading with Clarity, Trust, and Purpose, is available now on Amazon. https://a.co/d/0hYwI2SzFollow Men Talking Mindfulness, Jon Macaskill, and Will Schneider for more.shadow work for men, Connor Beaton, Man Talks podcast, men's shadow work, shame and masculinity, anger suppression men Men Talking Mindfulness podcast, Will Schneider, nice guy pattern, shame-based motivation, Jungian shadow, men's personal development, separating personhood from behavior, default mode networkwhat is shadow work for men, why do men suppress anger, how does shame affect men, what is shame-based motivation, nice guy syndrome and anger, how do psychedelics help shadow work, Hosted on Ausha.

Connor Beaton is the founder of "ManTalks", an international men's mental health organization, the host of "ManTalks", and the author of the best-selling book "Men's Work: A Practical Guide to Face Your Darkness, End Self-Sabotage, and Find Freedom".Through his 1:1 work, his courses, and the Alliance, his private men's community, Connor has spent over a decade helping men face the hidden parts of themselves that quietly run their lives.But Connor didn't come to this work through theory...For years, he performed the man he thought he needed to be: charming, capable, put together on the outside. On the inside, he was running.Eventually, it all collapsed...He found himself sleeping in his car, alone with everything he'd been hiding, and realized he had two options:Keep silently suffering, or start talking.He chose to talk. And that choice eventually became "ManTalks"...In my own journey of masculine development, Connor has been one of the most influential voices. Having him here on "Heart of Man" has truly been a dream since the very beginning of this show.One of the central themes of this conversation is self-worth...We explore how self-esteem is performance based. It rises and falls with what you do and how well you do it.Self-worth is something deeper. It is the understanding that you have value simply because you exist. Not because you earned it or proved it, but because it was never conditional in the first place.And yet for so many men, this knowing is missing...In its place is what Connor calls dark motivation: using shame, self-loathing, and fear as fuel to keep pushing forward. You build the business. You reach the top. And you feel nothing. Because the internal foundation was never built on genuine worth.In this conversation, Connor and I dive into:The critical difference between self-esteem and self-worth, and why so many men confuse the twoHow a man's sense of value becomes tied to his ability to perform, and what happens when that performance faltersWhy both the high-achieving man driven by shame and the collapsed man consumed by it are carrying the same woundHow shame functions as a compliance mechanism, and what that reveals about how men learned to manage themselves as boysThe two distinct paths that build a destructive inner critic, and how to trace yours back to its originHow to separate personhood from behavior, so failure is no longer experienced as evidence of being brokenHow to repurpose the inner critic from hostile attacker into a loyal soldier with a new missionThe role of self-compassion in building genuine self-worth, and why most men resist itWhy facing fear in isolation is dangerous, and what it truly means to have other men beside you as you walk into itThis episode is for any man who has spent years achieving while quietly feeling that none of it is ever enough. And for any man ready to stop using shame as the engine, and start building from something more honest and lasting.—Connect with Alex Lehmann:

Most people don't feel stuck because they lack motivation. They feel stuck because they're avoiding the truth that would force them to change. In this conversation with Connor Beaton, we break down why so many people stay in cycles of self-sabotage, disconnection, and confusion and how much of it comes back to one thing: choosing what's familiar over what's true. WATCH ON YOUTUBE Book Your Brand Strategy Session (psssttt... it's complimentary!!!)  We talk about the patterns that keep men stuck… Why your brain will choose harmful behaviors over growth… And how avoiding pain is actually what creates more of it. Connor shares his own story of hitting rock bottom, living out of his car, and what it actually took to rebuild his life, not through motivation, but through confronting the parts of himself he didn't want to face. This episode is about self-leadership, truth, and the real reason so many men feel lost. Because you're not broken. You're just avoiding something you know you need to face. In This Episode, We Cover: Why men avoid the truth (and how it keeps them stuck) The psychology behind self-sabotage Why familiar pain feels safer than unfamiliar growth The impact of absent (or emotionally absent) fathers Why so many men feel lost in today's world The role of male friendships and emotional isolation How to stop outsourcing your self-worth Why peace—not happiness—is the real goal Connor on Instagram Join Connor's Programs Connor's Podcast Connor's Website If You Enjoyed This Episode: Share it with someone who needs to hear it. And if this hit home, take a second to leave a review—it helps more than you know.

Connor Beaton joins James Smith to reveal the uncomfortable truth about self-sabotage. Far from being a simple lack of discipline, self-sabotage is a sophisticated survival strategy your brain uses to maintain control. Beaton explains why your psyche would rather choose a familiar disaster over an unfamiliar victory, keeping you locked in a cycle of destructive behavior to protect a fragile sense of identity.

Are men taught to be strong at the cost of being whole, and is that inner fracture driving disconnection, addiction, and despair? Josh Trent welcomes Connor Beaton to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 801, to break down the myth of modern masculinity, why suppression masquerades as strength, how porn, stress, and emotional avoidance become coping mechanisms, why men need initiation and mentorship to move from numbness to mastery, how shadow work and confrontation build real confidence, and why emotional leadership is the foundation of healthy relationships and fatherhood.

Connor Beaton, founder of ManTalks, joins MTM. He in a transformative conversation about shadow work and its profound impact on personal choices and mental well-being. Throughout the discussion, Connor delves deep into the concept of the "shadow self," exploring how acknowledging and integrating the hidden, often suppressed aspects of our personalities leads to greater self-awareness and genuine change. We candidly address the role of shame in our lives—how it can serve as both a motivator and a destructive force—and why many people unconsciously use shame-based narratives as a way to push themselves, often resulting in cycles of self-sabotage and emotional stagnation. Connor illustrates how confronting shadow elements like guilt, regret, and self-doubt enables us to break free from repeating negative patterns. Listeners will learn actionable strategies for revealing and working through feelings of shame, while gaining tools for healthier inner dialogue and compassionate self-reflection.You'll learn how self-compassion, accepting past mistakes, and building more authentic relationships—cornerstones of Connor's approach to men's emotional growth and healing.Feeling stuck?

Connor Beaton is a men's life coach, founder of ManTalks, and an author focusing on men's wellness and personal growth. He integrates Jungian psychology and somatic therapy into his coaching and speaking engagements​ In this episode of the Dad Edge podcast, host Larry Hagner and guest Connor Beaton talk about the power of voice in conveying emotions and creating a comfortable environment for effective communication. They discuss how slowing down speech and being mindful of tone can reduce anxiety and improve relationships. Connor Beaton shares his expertise in voice training and music, explaining how a person's voice can reflect their internal state. He suggests that speaking quickly or in a high-pitched tone can be indicative of anxiety or discomfort. By intentionally slowing down speech, individuals can bring attention and presence to their delivery, thereby potentially reducing anxiety and creating a more calm external perception. The conversation also extends to the impact of voice in parenting and marriage. Connor Beaton emphasize how their calm demeanor and voice can influence the behavior and emotions of their children and partners. They note that when they are calm, their children and partners also tend to be calm. This demonstrates that voice plays a crucial role in creating a sense of safety and comfort in relationships. www.thedadedge.com/457 www.thedadedge.com/alliance www.mantalks.com  

You're likely familiar with one of Kaitlyn's favorite guests, therapist Vienna Pharaon, but she's not the only brilliant mind in the family; in this episode, her husband Connor Beaton joins KB to talk all about his work which centers on helping men face and overcome their shadows. First, he dives into his life with wife Vienna and how they navigated having a baby, building a house, and each writing a book all at the same dang time. And speaking of having a child, Connor has some pretty impactful parenting advice that all of us can benefit from. Then, Connor explains how he arrived at his current career which came only after he reached rock bottom and moved towards all the things he had been avoiding. Transformation cannot happen without confrontation, and Connor explains how his book, podcast, and general work help men to confront their own truths, go beyond the surface level, and build relationships with their inner critics. His book not only helps men to learn and grow; all the women and anyone who is listening with questions about the men in their lives can learn from his messages and advice, so get ready for some major takeaways.
