In this first episode of Hidden Wisdom for 2026, Meghan introduces the core framework behind the podcast's direction: living the mysteries. Drawing from ancient traditions, Christian mysticism, symbolism, archetype, and scripture, this episode explains the difference between exoteric religion and esoteric wisdom, and why both are essential for true spiritual maturity.Meghan explores the soul's journey as a process of repeated death and rebirth, the movement from head knowledge to embodied wisdom, and the transformation that occurs when inner false identities are released. This episode addresses spiritual development, deconstruction, shadow work, repentance, grace, and theosis, all framed within a Christ-centered path.Listeners are invited to develop “eyes to see,” reclaim personal spiritual authority, and understand how religion can prepare us for deeper, inward communion with God rather than replace it.This foundational episode sets the tone for Hidden Wisdom in 2026 and offers a grounded, Christ-rooted approach to esoteric spirituality, divine law, and living a transformed life.Specific Timestamps00:00–03:20 | Welcome to 2026 and the purpose of the episode 03:20–06:50 | Defining “Living the Mysteries” and hidden wisdom 06:50–10:45 | Exoteric knowledge: structure, law, and spiritual childhood 10:45–14:20 | Esoteric wisdom: heart knowledge, embodiment, and maturity 14:20–17:55 | The soul's journey as sanctification and transformation 17:55–21:40 | Theosis, remembering the true self, and unity with God 21:40–25:10 | Asking real questions and beginning spiritual awakening 25:10–28:20 | Death, deconstruction, shadow work, and ego surrender 28:20–33:30 | Grace, rebirth, spiritual gifts, and ancient mystery traditions 33:30–37:25 | Religion vs. spirituality: the bullseye model of truth 37:25–41:20 | Masculine and feminine dynamics in religion and mysticism 41:20–44:50 | Why the esoteric feels dangerous and misunderstood 44:50–48:15 | Pendulum swings, spiritual ego, and imbalance 48:15–51:35 | Light and dark sides of spiritual distortion 51:35–55:40 | Christ as anchor, guide, and archetype of the journey 55:40–59:35 | Introducing esoteric Mormonism 59:35–01:02:55 | Scripture, authority, embodiment, and personal revelation 01:02:55–01:06:55 | Divine feminine, polarity, and perennial wisdom 01:06:55–01:10:10 | Practical steps to begin living the mysteries 01:10:10–End | Direction of Hidden Wisdom in 2026 and closing invitation Thank you for listening to Hidden Wisdom!

In this episode, Charles and Dan continue their discussion of masculine leadership in relationships by examining the role of direction and structure—and what happens when men avoid it or misuse it. Drawing from The Masculine in Relationship by G.S. Youngblood, they explore how everyday indecision, conflict avoidance, and over-assertiveness quietly undermine trust, intimacy, and attraction.The conversation breaks down the difference between leadership and control, and why insisting too loudly on being “in charge” often signals insecurity rather than confidence. Charles explains how leadership is communicated through action, competence, and calm initiative—not dominance or entitlement—and why women respond more positively to clarity than to either passivity or authoritarian decision-making.Dan shares personal insight into conflict avoidance and how early family dynamics can shape a tendency to defer decisions. Together, they unpack how the absence of honest opinions can trigger deeper doubts in a relationship, leading partners to question communication, emotional safety, and even sexual connection.The episode also highlights a common relational trap: waiting for instructions or clues instead of taking initiative. Charles argues that simply offering a genuine opinion—without clinging to it or forcing it—creates structure, reduces emotional labor, and keeps polarity alive. The goal isn't to win decisions, but to move the relationship forward with clarity and mutual respect.This conversation is about avoiding two damaging extremes: “I don't care, you decide,” and “I've decided, end of discussion.” Healthy masculine leadership lives in the middle—where initiative, openness, and emotional steadiness support long-term connection rather than eroding it.Support the show

Send us a Positive Review!As we begin 2026 and the fourth year of the Latter Day Struggles Podcast, we wanted to say THANK YOU to ALL supporters of the podcast and platform! So please enjoy this Office Hours recording and a podcast episode that is one that is a must-listen! In this timely conversation Valerie tackles Elder Anderson's recent general conference talk on abortion. In one hour she goes from the macro issue of abortion itself and offers some thought-provoking concepts about NOT focusing on abortion and instead focusing on how abortion is the prevailing solution to unwanted pregnancy only because we live in a patriarchal society. She also proposes that LDS women have valid reasons to feel unique and acute transgenerational pain connected to marriage, s*exual misconduct, power, and self sacrifice.Timestamps:00:00 – Listener Appreciation and Office Hours Format02:17 – Elder Anderson's Address on Abortion05:01 – Developmental Stages and Vulnerability07:00 – Weaponization of Authority and Internalized Harm12:56 – Masculine vs. Feminine Worldviews on Abortion15:00 – Societal Support and Resource Gaps17:00 – Upstream vs. Downstream Solutions21:00 – Deeply Embedded Patriarchal Assumptions25:00 – Legal and Economic Disparities29:54 – Critique of Elder Anderson's Address34:00 – Theological Shadows and Generational Trauma36:00 – Recommendations for Healthy Spirituality45:20 – Listener Reactions and Broader Church Issues50:00 – The Importance of Individual Discernment53:00 – Reflections on Church History and Patriarchy56:00 – Calls for Healing and Inclusion59:05 – Final Thoughts and Encouragement59:54 – Closing Remarks and Call to Action60:14 – Podcast Network AcknowledgmentSupport the showSupport the show Listen, Share, Rate & Review EPISODES Friday Episodes Annual Access $89 Friday Episodes Monthly Access $10 Valerie's Support & Processing Groups Gift a Scholarship Download Free Resources Visit our Website

He was dating a woman for about 2 months who also is a single parent.

The world wants Christmas without Christ.Noise without silence.Consumption without conversion.In this episode of The Manly Catholic, James is joined by Fr. Dom for a direct, unapologetic conversation on Advent, Christmas, and why Catholic men must reclaim the liturgical calendar from a culture that hijacks it every year.Advent was never meant to be sentimental. It was penitential. It demanded prayer, fasting, discipline, and preparation. Historically, it was forty days for a reason. In this episode, Fr. Dominic breaks down what Advent actually is, why it was shortened, and how consumerism has stripped Catholic men of spiritual readiness.The discussion moves straight to the battlefield. The manger is not a decoration. It is a sermon. The wood of the trough points to the wood of the Cross. The swaddling clothes point to the tomb. The shepherds reveal the power of simple faith. Christmas is not comfort. It is confrontation.St. Joseph is held up as the model Catholic man. Silent. Obedient. Strong. Disciplined. A guardian who moves when God commands and protects his family without hesitation. This episode makes it clear: families collapse when men abdicate leadership, and cultures rot when fathers refuse to lead.This is not nostalgia. This is formation.Men are challenged to reject the secular calendar, slow down, embrace prayer and fasting, and intentionally lead their homes through Advent and Christmas the way the Church intended. Satan thrives on distraction, disorder, and passivity. The antidote is disciplined, obedient, sacrificial masculinity.If you are tired of shallow faith, distracted homes, and soft leadership, this episode is your call to act.Challenge Issued in the EpisodeReclaim Advent. Strip your life down. Reject consumerism. Commit to prayer, fasting, and discipline. Lead your household intentionally through the liturgical calendar, not the secular one.Products, Sponsors, and References MentionedMystic Monk CoffeeHarmel Academy of the TradesSt. Joseph as the model of masculine leadershipSt. Francis of Assisi and the first NativityThe Advent wreath and the liturgical calendarEarly Church teaching on Advent and Christmas3 Powerful Quotes from the Episode“Christmas doesn't start until Christmas Day. If you miss Advent, you miss the grace God wants to give you once a year.”“Satan does not want you to remember who you are, where you come from, or the traditions that keep families strong.”“If men lived disciplined virtue like St. Joseph, the culture would collapse overnight and rebuild itself rightly.”1 Immediate Takeaway for MenCreate order through discipline. Choose one concrete act of Advent penance or fasting and lead your home in it without negotiation. Masculine leadership begins with obedience to God.

Beloved, As Christmas comes and goes, the world softens for a moment. The pace eases, the noise quietens, and something deeper becomes easier to hear.This season carries a powerful essential nature quality: returning to the foundation.Before goals. Before vision boards. Before the next becoming.Remember that at your core, there is an original design, steady, wise, and intact. Christmas offers a natural pause to reconnect with that inner architecture. The part of you that already knows who you are, how you function best, and what truly matters.So rather than pushing forward, this years' season is an invitation to come home. Home to your body. Home to your heart. Home to the intelligence that lives beneath effort and striving.From a divine nature and divine feminine perspective, alignment always begins here, in rest, resonance, and remembrance.As this year completes its cycle, my suggestion to you is to allow yourself to receive:• integration instead of urgency• clarity instead of pressure• nourishment instead of effortWhatever unfolded this year has shaped your field, refined your awareness, and strengthened your inner structure. Nothing has been wasted. Everything has informed your true essence.The Great Mother and Father that birthed your existence into form.As we know it takes two to make a baby, without that balance the offspring might be imbalanced. My wish for you is simple. May your foundation feel steady. May your hearts feel held and may your inner compass feel clear.RETURNING TO MOTHER | COMFORT & PEACE | FOR ALLI leave you with a remembrance of what was removed a long time ago in the name of power and control. The Holy Spirit is proven to be “female.” Make Gods in OUR image - was the foundation of the trinity of Elohim, Eshera and Yeshua. Mother, Father and Son/Daughter.The divine feminine - which is rising and bringing care, love and healing into our consciousness.The connection between Sophia theology and women's teaching authority is inseparable.Karen King, a professor of church history at Harvard Divinity School, suggests that the Nag Hammadi texts are not an aberration, but a window into a Christianity that flourished for the first two centuries.In this world, Sophia was a central theological concept, and women held significant positions of teaching authority.This was not a marginal movement; it thrived in major centers of thought like Alexandria, Rome, and Gaul.The texts preserve fierce debates, such as the Second Treatise of the Great Seth, which records a Christ figure ridiculing bishops who claim authority without knowing the truth.The Testimony of Truth directly attacks the institutional church, claiming its leaders possess the name of a dead man but lack the actual spirit of truth.These were not the writings of defeated heretics hiding in caves, but the arguments of sophisticated theologians claiming the institutional church had abandoned Christ in favor of political power.The historical pattern is clear: Sophia theology flourished wherever Christians had intellectual freedom and collapsed wherever bishops allied with imperial power.By the late 4th century, major centers of this tradition had been suppressed, and the texts survived only because monks buried them before the purges arrived.The Nag Hammadi discovery proved that an entire branch of Christianity was erased, not because it lost the theological argument, but because it lost a political war.The removal of Sophia was a metaphysical amputation that severed humanity from half of the divine image.For the first two centuries, women could look toward the heavens and see themselves reflected in Sophia, who was wisdom incarnate, present at creation, and a teacher of humanity.Her existence meant that femininity was ontologically divine, allowing women in these communities to teach, prophesy, and perform sacraments with divine authority.After the Council of Nicaea and the destruction of these texts, the reflection of the feminine divine disappeared.The Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—became conceptually MASCULINE, and the only remaining feminine figure was Mary, defined by her obedience and receptivity.If the divine image is exclusively masculine, then maleness is seen as godly, while women become derivative reflections or corrupted vessels.In the late 4th century, Augustine of Hippo codified this into doctrine, arguing that a woman is not the image of God by herself, but only when joined to a man.This theology shaped law, culture, and family structure, suggesting that female subordination was not social convention but a cosmic order.The slide toward devaluation reached a point where the Council of Macon in 585 CE debated whether women even possessed souls.Medieval theology continued this descent, with Thomas Aquinas characterizing women as “misbegotten males” and defective versions of the masculine ideal.These were not fringe ideas; they were the foundational doctrines of the intellectual authorities defining the Western Church for centuries.The practical consequences were catastrophic, as women were excluded from universities and prohibited from reading scripture in the vernacular.The witch trials of the early modern period eventually criminalized women's traditional knowledge of healing and midwifery, labeling it as a demonic theft of male authority.Beyond gender, the erasure of Sophia reshaped the human relationship with curiosity and wisdom.In the Sophia narratives, her defining characteristic is a desire to know and understand the depths of divine mystery.Though her desire led to error, that error was seen as correctable through knowledge, suggesting that seeking wisdom is better than blind obedience.In the post-Nicene narrative, however, Sophia's desire became the template for forbidden knowledge, and curiosity was reframed as the sin of pride.Independent thought became a rebellion, and education was placed under strict ecclesiastical control.The medieval church's multiple bans on the works of Aristotle and the trials of figures like Galileo were symptoms of this theological monopoly on truth.Even the Scientific Revolution and the Enlightenment, which emerged as rebellions against this monopoly, largely excluded women from the new universities.The intellectual flowering of Europe happened in a world where half of humanity was still theologically barred from the pursuit of wisdom.Ultimately, Sophia represented a conviction that Western Spirituality desperately lacked: the belief that the pursuit of truth is a holy act of desire, not a sinful act of rebellion.IN CLOSING Thank you for walking this conscious path with me, for your trust, your openness, and your willingness to live in alignment with who you truly are.I look forward to guiding you into the next chapter, rooted, resourced, and ready.Love, KassandraThe Light Between is a reader-supported publication.

You've probably heard the advice: “Set him up to win.” But what happens when that feels a little too close to overfunctioning, or like you're sliding back into old patterns of caretaking, controlling, or doing too much?In this episode, we unpack what emotional labor really is, how it gets tangled up with the mental load and relational leadership, and why so many women feel like they're carrying the entire emotional weight of the relationship while still craving deeper connection. We share what healthy emotional contribution actually looks like, where the line lives between giving and self-abandonment, and how to stay connected to your feminine energy while allowing space for healthy masculine energy to meet you.We talk about:- The difference between emotional labor, mental load, and overfunctioning- How to stop disappearing in the name of “keeping the peace”- Why healthy men may not be stepping in the way you want them to, and what's actually going on under the surface- How your body might still be bracing for disappointment, even when your mind says you're ready for more- Why it's not about leaning back or leaning in, but about holding your seat in the relationship- How to communicate what you really need without performing, shrinking, or overexplaining- Why your capacity to receive is just as important as your desire to give- How good, grounded men are already doing emotional labor, and how to recognize it when you see it- What it looks like to build a relationship where both people are invested, emotionally available, and respectedWant to work with Bri and/or Courtney?Connect with Bri on Instagram: @buildingbricoachingConnect with Courtney on Instagram: @courtney_schandFollow the show on Instagram: @thefortheloveofmenpodcastCheck out our website: www.fortheloveofmenpodcast.comLooking for deeper support?Check out our Masterclasses:1️⃣ What Your Woman Wants Emotionally And How to Provide It: Unlock the secrets to fulfilling your partner emotionally!

Would you like a more fun, connected and sexual relationship? Would you like to understand how masculine strength creates sexual polarity with your wife or feminine partner? In this episode I talk about how men can learn to handle their partner's upset and difficult emotions in a way that helps her feel safe enough to let go of the emotions and even feel attracted to you and move towards you for more closeness and connection - and when you learn this, she also can start to trust you more.In our coaching, we help men get a powerful new mindset that empowers you to give, love and connect more deeply because you're finally doing that within yourself first. This mindset allows empathy, trust and connection to happen because you're confident in who you're being. We teach skills and knowledge that nobody ever teaches men when we're younger. Skills and knowledge that make you feel confident and in control even when chaos is going on around you. It's amazing what you can achieve when you make yourself a priority. Most men don't. They are too busy taking care of everyone else. Too busy minding the store and making the money. They are focused on the "outside game" of winning life. But their "inside game" of confidence and clarity is suffering badly. You can only improve your inside game with other men. We would love to help you become more calm, more strong emotionally and more confident and happy in who you are as a man. Come and join us, either through 1-on-1 coaching with my colleague Dan Dore or me, or in our group coaching program with other amazing men who are travelling the same path as you right now in our Men's Live Coaching Roundtable. There's an amazing tribe of guys in this group with us, supporting and helping each other through this process of growth and self realization. https://goodguys2greatmen.com/goodguys2greatmen-live-coaching-roundtable/ If you're facing possible divorce, we have an online course which is specifically for you - Defuse the Divorce Bomb: https://mojopolis.thinkific.com/courses/HDDB-preview?ref=a53950 What if this next year everything changed for you?

What women say they want in a man often sounds clear on paper: emotionally available, confident, strong, kind, and secure. But in real life, attraction doesn't always follow the script. In this episode, we unpack the growing gap between what women say they want and how they actually respond to masculine men in dating and relationships. This isn't about blaming anyone; it's about getting real about desire, polarity, and the confusion a lot of men feel when they do “everything right” and still get rejected. We talk about why masculine energy is often misunderstood, how modern dating culture has softened or distorted what masculinity actually looks like, and why some men feel pressured to tone themselves down to be chosen. If you've ever felt like the advice doesn't match the outcomes or wondered why confidence and leadership are praised but punished in practice, this conversation will hit close to home. Honest, uncomfortable at times, and long overdue. Got a story to share with us? Leave us a voicemail by clicking here.

In this episode, Charles and Dan challenge the physical and psychological prescriptions found in chapters 10 and 11 of The Masculine in Relationship. The discussion begins with a critical look at the concept of embodiment, debating whether relationship friction is truly caused by overthinking or if it is the result of underthinking and reactivity in stressful moments.The hosts take a skeptical stance on the author's suggested "protocols"—such as provocation meditation and breath of fire—questioning whether these techniques offer genuine resilience or if they are merely temporary Band-Aids that ignore the deep-seated psychological roots of anxiety.The conversation then moves into the essential role of desire and leadership, where the hosts argue that a man's presence is most clearly felt through his opinions. They explore why simply having and stating a clear preference—even on something as mundane as dinner—is a fundamental expression of care that partners actually value.Finally, Charles and Dan tackle the author's controversial attempt to redefine selfishness as a virtue. They weigh the importance of maintaining personal agency and self-respect against the pitfalls of "willy-nilly" redefining language to suit a narrative, ultimately arguing for a centered approach to self-care that doesn't sacrifice linguistic or relational integrity.Support the show

On December 19th, interstellar object 3I/ATLAS makes its closest approach to the Earth, marking what astrologer and psychologist Heather Ensworth, Ph.D., calls the final activation window of this rare cosmic event. In this in-depth interview, Heather explains the astrological, mythological, and energetic significance of 3I ATLAS, including why its trajectory, timing, and symbolism align with major collective shifts leading into 2026. We explore the object's possible cosmic origin, how it interacts with the Sun, Earth, Venus, and Mars, and why so many intuitives, seers, and ancient traditions predicted a period of accelerated awakening during this solstice corridor. Whether you're tracking ATLAS as an astronomical phenomenon or tuning into the spiritual implications of this interstellar visitor, this episode brings brand-new 3i atlas updates you won't find anywhere else.Heather and Emilio dive into the deeper meaning of December's energies, including the Sun–Galactic Center alignment, the solstice gateway, plasma-field activations, and the psychological and spiritual shifts unfolding as humanity enters a new evolutionary phase. We discuss timelines, intuition, 5D consciousness, the awakening of the heart, and what this moment means for healers, sensitives, and starseeds around the world. If you're searching for the latest 3I/ATLAS update, looking to understand the astrological significance of December 19, or wanting to prepare for the energetic doorway of 2025–2026, this conversation with Heather Ensworth serves as your complete guide.___________________PODCAST CHAPTERS00:00 - Heather Ensworth Intro03:47 – December Full Moon & The Window Until Dec 19, 202504:31 – 3I/ATLAS, Solstice & The 2025–2026 Evolutionary Cycle07:02 – Mars–Venus Dance 08:36 – Reunion of Masculine & Feminine Energies Across Ages09:34 – Humanity's 12,000-Year Descent12:43 – Who Rules the Aquarian Age? 13:29 – Dimensional Divide15:47 – Seeing Multi-Dimensional Reality21:13 – Why Humanity Chose Forgetting25:07 – Free Will vs. Cyclical Forces25:55 – Choice, Surrender & Hopi Prophecy29:05 – Does It Really Only Take 10% to Shift the World?35:10 – The Shadow of Each Royal Star38:10 – How Ancient Civilizations Received Star Wisdom43:29 – Flash-Forward to 2032: Saturn/Uranus in Orion's Arm46:36 – June 2032: Humanity's Choice Point Revealed47:36 – How to Prepare Spiritually for the Intensity Ahead50:05 – Heather's Daily Practices50:14 – The Heart as Humanity's Center51:29 – Earth's Movement Toward the Galactic Center Explained52:34 – Revisiting the Binary Star System & Sirius Connection59:19 – Becoming the New Human01:01:29 – The Convergence Event 01:05:06 – Your Message to the Future Human01:05:22 – What Quality Is Awakening in Humanity?01:06:12 – What Gives You Faith in Our Future?___________________Guest: Heather Ensworth, Ph.D., Astrologer & Wisdom Keeper✦ Website | https://risingmoonhealingcenter.com/✦ Readings & Courses | https://risingmoonhealingcenter.com/a...✦ YouTube | @HeatherEnsworth ✦ Instagram | / heather.ensworth Host: Emilio Ortiz✦ IG | / iamemilioortiz ✦ Subscribe to Channel | / emilioortiz ___________________© 2025 Emilio Ortiz.

E432 Inner Voice – A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan and Josh Tomeoni In this powerful episode of Inner Voice, Dr. Foojan Zeine sits down with Josh Tomeoni, founder of Ex-Derelict and author of The Gospel of an Ex-Derelict: Fight. Fail. Rebuild. Josh brings a rare blend of lived experience and professional insight as a 19-year fiduciary financial planner turned men's coach, working with high-performing men navigating divorce, identity loss, and major life transitions. The conversation opens with a deep exploration of how divorce and trauma place every person at a crossroads—a choice between the path of health or the path of destruction. Josh challenges common gender stereotypes, explaining that while men and women don't choose different paths, they often cope in different ways. Men tend to numb through work, sex, substances, or avoidance, while women may rely on relationships or even therapy in ways that can become ineffective if true growth stalls. As the episode unfolds, Dr. Foojan and Josh explore neuroscience-based differences in emotional processing, the role of culture and attachment, and how comfort zones—work for men, relationships for women—can either support healing or quietly sabotage it. They emphasize that healing requires active engagement, accountability, and results—not passive coping or endless talking without progress. Josh shares his personal story of divorce, spiritual awakening, and the moment he realized that avoiding pain only made it return stronger and more destructive. This realization shaped both of his books and his mission to help men rebuild wealth, masculinity, purpose, and legacy in their second act of life. In the second half of the episode, Josh introduces his latest book, The Gospel of an Ex-Derelict: Fight. Fail. Rebuild., a powerful blend of memoir and practical guidance designed to help men integrate mental, emotional, spiritual, and financial clarity. Rather than promoting surface-level fixes like money or physical appearance, Josh focuses on identity reconstruction, intentional masculinity, and purposeful living after loss. The conversation concludes with a profound reminder: the only way forward is through the pain. Avoiding discomfort only guarantees deeper suffering later. Growth, healing, and strength come from facing hard truths directly—and doing the work when it matters most. ⏱️ CHAPTER TIMESTAMPS (CLICKABLE) 00:00 – Welcome to Inner Voice with Dr. Foojan 02:26 – Meet Josh Tomeoni: Ex-Derelict & Men's Coach 05:52 – Divorce from the Male Perspective 07:14 – Spiritual Awakening After Divorce 08:30 – Numbing Pain Through Sex, Substances & Avoidance 10:29 – Why Men Feel Alone After Divorce 12:02 – The Traps Men Fall Into During Divorce 13:04 – Do Women Heal Faster Than Men?

What does the Nativity reveal about masculinity?In this video, we reflect on St. Joseph and the quiet, contemplative masculinity revealed at the birth of Christ. Against modern ideas of power, dominance, and performance, the Nativity offers something radically different. Strength expressed through tenderness. Authority shown through obedience. Holiness revealed through proximity to a vulnerable God.St. Joseph never speaks in Scripture, yet he stands at the very center of the mystery of the Incarnation. He guards the Child. He listens in the night. He acts without spectacle. In doing so, he shows us a masculinity shaped not by control, but by intimacy with God.This reflection explores the masculine mysticism of Advent and the Nativity, the fear of tenderness in modern Catholic masculinity, and the deeper strength found in silence, vigilance, and mutual gaze with God. We also consider Joseph as an image of the bridal posture of the soul, showing how availability to God can take shape in a man's life.
In this episode, we dive straight into the raw reality of what true masculine initiation actually looks like—far beyond the pop-psychology clichés. Jaguar Heart returns to share an unfiltered account of the heartbreak, trauma, illness, loss, and psychological dismantling that forced him into his next stage of individuation. From splitting from the mother construct to confronting toxic feminine dynamics, Jaguar offers a rare look inside the male awakening that modern culture avoids at all costs. No easy narratives will be found here...this dialogue reveals the deeper psychological currents men must face—and the inner fire required to break free.Time Stamps(00:00) Episode Teaser(00:33) Opening Conversation(04:26) Introducing Jaguar Heart(06:35) Health Struggles and Recovery(11:35) Relationship Dynamics and Coaching(27:31) Mother Wounds and Masculinity(40:37) Societal Narratives and Masculinity(46:44) The Sisterhood's Threat to Women(49:05) Domestic Violence and Double Standards(50:30) The Lack of Elder Men in Modern Society(55:48) The Evolution of Masculinity(01:01:15) The Challenges of Maintaining Relationships(01:03:27) The Importance of Containment in Men(01:18:53) The Role of Elder Men in Guiding Youth(01:30:01) Honoring Masculinity and Inner AuthorityGuest Linkshttps://www.instagram.com/purejaguar/ Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links
https://vimeo.com/1136707863?share=copy&fl=sv&fe=ci We've heard a lot about what doesn't work for us as women with the Me Too Movement and toxic masculinity and the recent Epstein Files, and we know what doesn't work for us as well. But do we know what does? And today's guest is gonna talk about relational masculinity as the next frontier beyond toxic masculinity. It's a beautiful conversation with GS Youngblood, and I welcome you to join us to find out more. GS Youngblood has been studying the dynamics of relationship and polarity for over 17 years. He has found that most relationship problems are a result of a lack of masculine leadership. GS Youngblood offers live training workshops to help men stop settling for a flat, contentious or toxic relationship. He offers a three month live online group experience for a community of 12 like-minded men with his Relationship Repair Boot Camp. He is also a two time book author of "The Masculine in Relationship” and “The Art of Embodiment for Men” A book about owning your strength while still connecting with your woman on a deep level. He has sold nearly 100,000 books to date and has helped tens of thousands of men transform their lives by boiling down a complex subject into a simple three-part framework that ANY man can embody: the Masculine Blueprint. Watch or listen to the show to discover ways to help men find their way to start living from their masculine core. You're Invited! FREE GIFT: MIR Toolkit https://www.gsyoungblood.com/toolkit GS YOUNGBLOOD BIO GS Youngblood is the acclaimed author of the groundbreaking book “The Masculine in Relationship”, which challenges the modern notion that all Masculinity is toxic by offering a model - the Masculine Blueprint - for men to become grounded in their own power and more relational with their Feminine partner. The Blueprint is something any man can embody, and it fits in our modern #MeToo culture without being watered down in any way. The premise of his work is that many relationship problems are actually rooted in a lack of Relational Masculinity - which is a combination of groundedness, leadership, and relational skills. This is what he teaches to men. His two books have sold nearly a combined 90,000 copies, and he has become a highly sought-after men's coach. GS's work draws inspiration from various disciplines, including psychology, men's work, spirituality, martial arts, tango, meditation, and BDSM.

Send us a textHello, hello. I am Dimple Thakrar, and welcome back to Beyond the Words. Today, we are exploring the truth about masculine and feminine energies and how they shape long-term love. If you have ever felt out of sync with your partner or wondered why the spark faded even though the love remained, this episode will speak to you.I share a time when my husband and I slipped out of balance. I was pushing too much, sitting deep in my masculine, while he softened too much into his feminine. That mix dissolved our polarity. What brought us back was not forcing roles. It was each of us finding our true energetic centre before meeting again. Now, thirty years in, the work has evolved from repair to expansion.We will talk about how real relationships move between energies naturally. How you lead in your strengths, soften where you choose, and allow flow instead of rules. I will share why this creates ease, safety, and a deeper spark.Episode SummaryDimple reflects on a season in her marriage when polarity faded due to energetic imbalance. She describes how she and her husband restored it by returning to their authentic, energetic nature rather than assigning blame. Now, in a more mature stage of the relationship, both partners move between masculine and feminine in a way that feels natural and supportive.She explains how this flow allows each person to lead where they are strong and receive where they want support. The episode challenges the idea that women must stay in their feminine and men must stay in their masculine. Instead, Dimple shows how couples thrive when both partners honour their truth and free themselves from guilt and stereotypes.Key TakeawaysPolarity Begins With AuthenticityEach person must know their natural energetic centre.Flow Matters More Than RulesHealthy partnerships allow movement between energies.Lead Where You Are StrongStrengths create connection, not fixed roles.Both Energies Are PowerfulFeeling, leading, softening, and taking charge are all valid.Extraordinary Love Requires BalanceSafety grows when both partners feel free to be themselves.Thank you for joining me today.

If you've ever felt like you're not "man enough," questioned whether you're measuring up, or silently compared yourself to other men — this episode will hit home. David breaks down why so many men feel they're failing at their own definition of masculinity, how the "man box" silently shapes your self-worth, and why tying your value to providing, strength, or achievement leaves you anxious, disconnected, and stuck in a loop of never feeling enough. Drawing from 15 years of coaching and his personal journey from performance-driven masculinity to grounded, embodied confidence, David reveals the hidden wounds and outdated beliefs driving today's masculinity crisis. Most importantly, he lays out a clear, practical roadmap for shifting from performance masculinity to embodied masculinity — so you can build presence, emotional range, purpose, and deep relational leadership without losing your edge. Whether you're single, dating, or deep into a partnership, this episode is your guide to redefining masculinity on your own terms — and finally stepping into a version of manhood that strengthens your mental health, your relationships, and your life. Key Topics: ⭐ The masculinity crisis: why 63% of men feel they're not "man enough" ⭐ The provider mindset and why men tie their worth to money ⭐ The "man box" and how it silently controls male behavior ⭐ Masculinity as performance vs. masculinity as identity ⭐ Men's core wound: feeling "not enough" ⭐ Approval-based masculinity and external validation ⭐ The hidden link between masculinity and male depression ⭐ Why financial stress destroys men's mental health ⭐ Emotional suppression and its psychological cost ⭐ Healthy masculinity vs. toxic dominance ⭐ Emotional openness as a new masculine strength ⭐ Nervous system regulation and emotional self-control ⭐ Relational leadership instead of control and domination ⭐ Redefining "providing" beyond just money Connect With David - The Authentic Man: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theauthenticman_/ Website: https://www.theauthenticman.net/ For Coaching: hello@theauthenticman.net Newsletter: https://www.theauthenticman.net/home-subscribe

So Jimmy brought her on the podcast to talk openly and honestly about sex, intimacy, attraction, communication, and everything couples struggle with but rarely discuss.Amanda breaks down why it's so difficult for couples to talk about sex, why belief systems from childhood and religion shape adulthood intimacy, and how unspoken expectations quietly damage relationships. She explains the “squirrels” that hijack the brain, the role of masculine and feminine energy, scheduling sex, aftercare, fantasies, porn, nervous-system regulation, repairing a sexless marriage, and how partners can create safety instead of pressure.Jimmy shares his own experiences—from leaving a strict religious upbringing, to hiring sex coaches, to navigating shame and redefining intimacy in a healthy way. The conversation is raw, honest, and designed to help couples finally understand what's really going on beneath the surface. This episode is for married couples, people dating, men in Jimmy's community, and anyone who wants more connection, better communication, and a happier sex life.

Isn't it funny how the “prize” for being such a boss is you now take care of everything? In this episode, I get into what healthy masculine and feminine energy actually look like in real life: direction, stability, container vs. receptivity, amplification, flow. I'll discuss why so many strong, high-performing women end up stuck in their masculine without realizing it (and spoiler, it's not because you're “too much). I walk through an 8-year relationship story to show you how breadcrumbs work, how your identity gets tied to hope, and how mixed signals are just an avoidance of the truth.

In this episode of the Journey Beyond Divorce Podcast, I'm speaking directly to the men who are walking through the intensity of high conflict divorce — the pressure, the triggers, the confusion, and the deep internal unraveling that often comes with it. Men in high conflict divorce are asked to hold an extraordinary amount: to respond instead of react, to stay grounded when provoked, and to lead even when everything around them feels uncertain. And while I coach men through these challenges every single day, I also know that some truths land more powerfully when they come from another man who embodies the discipline, steadiness, and intentional leadership required to rise during divorce. That's why I invited Michael Holt, founder of the international Savage & Saint Collective, to join me for this conversation. Michael has dedicated his life to helping men reclaim emotional sovereignty, cultivate presence, and embody a form of masculine leadership that is rooted in clarity rather than chaos. His work blends meditation, martial arts, psychology, holistic health, and serious inner discipline — and it aligns deeply with what I teach men navigating high conflict divorce: that the real power lies not in controlling others, but in mastering yourself. Michael and I explore the patterns that keep men stuck in reactivity during divorce and the internal shifts required to break those cycles. We talk about the cost of abandoning your center, how quickly men give away their power when triggered, and what it takes to stay grounded when you feel attacked, misunderstood, or overwhelmed. Michael offers a male perspective on strength that doesn't rely on force, suppression, or avoidance, but instead comes from presence, vitality, and self-awareness — qualities that become essential when the stakes are high and the conflict feels relentless. Together, we dig into the difference between reactive masculinity and embodied leadership, and why men who learn to regulate their nervous system and stay anchored in who they are gain far more influence — not just in their divorce, but in their lives, relationships, and fatherhood. We discuss how men can cultivate discipline, stability, and clarity even in the middle of legal battles, emotional turmoil, and the dismantling of a marriage. This is the kind of conversation that gives men direction, grounding, and a roadmap for showing up as the man they want to be, not the man the conflict tries to turn them into. Michael Holt is a powerful example of what it looks like to live the work rather than talk about it. His Savage & Saint Collective supports men around the world in strengthening their inner foundation so they can show up with integrity, courage, and calm — exactly what is needed in high conflict divorce. If you're a man navigating divorce and you've been searching for guidance from someone who truly understands the internal journey you're on, this episode will offer the clarity and steadiness you've been craving. This is about reclaiming yourself, rebuilding your center, and stepping into the kind of leadership that can change the trajectory of your life.

People are naturally drawn to you when you have it, just like gravity pulls everything to the ground. In this episode, I break down the physics of masculine gravity. I explain how presence works like gravity—it doesn't push, it pulls. I share how men can develop this magnetic force in themselves to command attention and respect without trying. By the end, you'll understand how to be naturally powerful and present. Show Notes: [02:49]#1 Masculine gravity is silent but felt. [07:16]#2 Gravity itself organizes everything around it.
