Send us a textWhat does authentic masculinity look like in a world that teaches boys to hide their emotions from an early age? Leadership coach Lee Povey takes us on his transformative journey from needing to be the hero in every relationship to discovering the profound power of vulnerability.Growing up with a narcissistic father who saw Lee's achievements only as extensions of himself left him with a deep question that persists even at 52 years old: what does it really mean to be a man? His search led him to therapy and men's groups where he discovered what had been missing—the ability to be seen, heard, and guided by older men who accepted him fully.This conversation takes a dramatic turn when Lee reveals how a devastating cycling accident in 2010 forced him to confront his inability to ask for help. "I wanted to be always okay and I wanted you to be not okay so I could save you," he shares, describing how this "hero complex" had sabotaged his relationships and limited his growth. The vulnerability required during his recovery ultimately transformed every aspect of his life.Both Steve and Lee explore why men struggle with emotional expression, introducing practical approaches for reclaiming our full emotional range. Lee's "cookie jar" analogy brilliantly illustrates how we lose capacity for feedback when we experience too much criticism without sufficient acknowledgment. The key to effective men's groups? Creating judgment-free spaces where men can first be heard before receiving guidance.Whether you work with men professionally or are simply interested in developing greater emotional intelligence, this episode offers profound insights into creating spaces where vulnerability becomes strength. As Steve powerfully states, "If you ever make fun of my vulnerability, you're the asshole, not me."Join us to discover how embracing our full humanity—including the emotions we've been taught to suppress—leads to more authentic connections, better leadership, and greater resilience in the face of life's challenges.This discussion will continue on episode 215!To connect with Lee, go to his website at www.leepovey.comFreed.ai: We'll Do Your SOAP Notes!Freed AI converts conversations into SOAP note.Use code Steve50 for $50 off the 1st month!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

You've been taught vulnerability is strength, but what if that's half the truth—and it's costing you more than you realize? This week, DawnCheré Wilkerson joins me to dismantle the hidden toll of isolation. She shares how walking through infertility, life's furnace, and unsurfaced grief fractures the soul, and how secrets rob you of belonging before you even realize it. DawnCheré exposes why vulnerability isn't a spotlight; it's a sanctuary that demands integrity. She unpacks the orphan spirit every believer must resist, warns against idolizing therapy as the endpoint, and offers a path forward: a refusal to run, safety in community, and the spiritual grit to stay alive. If you're tired of pretending you're fine…if your pain feels invisible…and if you've mistaken therapy for healing, this episode is your call to come home.

Most shop owners don't think about marketing when things are going great, but wait until the car count drops or the phones go quiet. That's when the panic hits, and all eyes turn to marketing. But what if your shop's struggles aren't about marketing at all?In this episode, I sit down with Daniel Burkholder from Body Shop Marketing to explore a lesser-known aspect of the collision industry. Daniel's been in this world since he was a kid, growing up in the family's body shop, and now he's on the frontlines helping collision shop owners navigate a changing landscape.We talk about what a Direct Repair Program (DRP) is, how it affects a shop's autonomy, and why relying on insurance companies for car count is a dangerous game. You'll hear how customer behavior is shifting even with DRPs in play and how shops that aren't actively marketing are gambling with their future.This episode is loaded with insights about the customer journey in the collision space, the rising importance of Google search, the power of reputation, and why the best time to market is when you don't need the work. Whether you're all mechanical or have a toe in the collision side, this is a conversation worth tuning into. This episode is sponsored by Shop Boss.

We weren't created to have all the answers, carry all the weight, or see the full picture. We're human—and that's not a flaw, it's a fact.In this final episode of our What I Learned from My Counselor series, we're talking about embracing our God-given limitations and letting go of the pressure to do it all, fix it all, or understand it all. Because when we acknowledge our humanness, we make space for God to be who He's always been—faithful, sovereign, and full of grace.If you've been feeling overwhelmed by all that life is asking of you, or frustrated that you can't seem to keep it all together, this conversation is for you. You'll be reminded that God doesn't expect perfection—He invites surrender.Let this be your permission to breathe, rest, and trust the One who's not limited like we are. You're human… and that's exactly who God came to help.Disclaimer:Everything we share regarding mental health is based on our own journey. We are not mental health professionals.

When Dr. Fowler 's only child when missing in NYC, it became apparant the police were not going to be looking for him. They repeatedly told her "He'll be back."  His poster was removed from the bulletin board after only a few weeks and Dr. Fowler never received a call from the detective assigned to LaMont's case. Years went by.  Much to her surprise, the detective on the other end of her regular phone calls suddenly changed his stance.  "Why, yes. You should come in."  It was then she heard the hard truth.  Not only had LaMont washed up on the banks of the East River eight days after he went missing, but he was identified.  But that was the end of the investigation. No one made an attempt to reach out to his family. This episode shines a light on situations like LaMont's as well as offers five strategies of what to do about it.

In today's episode, Dr. Karen DeCocker, PMHNP, DNP, CNM, joins the podcast to discuss the use of ketamine to treat depression and various other mental health issues.

In this episode, you'll learn:• How to catch yourself projecting your definitions onto others and create real understanding instead• Why the stories you tell yourself about tough experiences keep you stuck, and how reframing heavy words unlocks healing• The communication patterns that show when you're assuming versus getting curious, and how this one shift transforms everythingHave you ever had someone tell you to "just have faith" and wanted to punch them in the face? Or maybe you started consoling someone about their divorce, only to realize they threw a party to celebrate and you're standing there like an idiot with your sympathy face on?Here's what nobody talks about: we're all walking around with these secret dictionaries in our heads. Same words, completely different meanings. And we're out here having conversations thinking we're on the same page when really, we might as well be speaking Martian to each other.Your brain collects definitions your whole life based on what you've actually lived through. So when someone who grew up in chaos hears "boundaries," they might think about walls and isolation. But someone else hears the same word and thinks about self-respect and clarity. When someone says "vulnerability," one person pictures weakness and danger, while another sees courage and connection.Ancient wisdom traditions understood that language shapes reality. The stories we tell ourselves and the meanings we attach to our experiences literally create our world. When you're unconscious about the definitions you're carrying around, you're operating on autopilot, assuming everyone else sees through your lens.And here's the part that'll change your life: the meaning you've been carrying around for a word that causes you pain? That's not carved in stone. You can consciously choose to reframe your relationship with any concept. Sometimes healing starts with something as simple as realizing that your definition of "selfish" might actually be someone else's definition of "self-care."What if the words that have been limiting you could become the keys to your freedom?Today our guest is Donna Reed, a 67-year-old author who discovered the power of conscious language while writing a book exploring different meanings behind everyday words. Her journey reveals how our relationship with language evolves as we grow, and why getting intentional about communication changes everything.Links from the episode:Show Notes: mindlove.com/409Join the Mind Love CollectiveSign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes to wake up inspiredSupport Mind Love SponsorsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Gigi Robinson grew up with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, a disease that turns your joints into overcooked spaghetti. Instead of letting it sideline her, she built a career out of telling the truth about invisible illness. We talk about what it takes to grow up faster than you should, why chronic illness is the worst unpaid internship, and how she turned her story into a business. You'll hear about her days schlepping to physical therapy before sunrise, documenting the sterile absurdity of waiting rooms, and finding purpose in the mess. Gigi's not interested in pity or polished narratives. She wants you to see what resilience really looks like, even when it's ugly. If you think you know what an influencer does, think again. This conversation will challenge your assumptions about work, health, and what it means to be seen.RELATED LINKSGigi Robinson Website: https://www.gigirobinson.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gigirobinsonInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsgigirobinsonTikTok: @itsgigirobinsonA Kids Book About Chronic Illness: https://akidsco.com/products/a-kids-book-about-chronic-illnessFEEDBACKLike this episode?

Dori Lewis, MA, MEd, LPC-S, is a co-founder of Elemental Psychedelics and owner-operator of Reflective Healing in Fort Collins, CO, where she blends transpersonal psychology, depth work, and psychedelic-assisted therapy after stewarding nearly 100 ketamine therapy sessions and receiving training in shamanic ritual. As an educator, she has delivered talks for the professional psychedelic community, co-teaches introductory psychedelic therapy workshops, and serves as core faculty for the Psychedelic Research and Training Institute (PRATI), specializing in teaching clinicians about set and setting, ceremony, and ritual within ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. Her latest venture, Elemental Psychedelics, is a women-led training center providing guidance through a feminine lens, which aligns with her belief that those with influence in professional and psychedelic communities must stay informed and challenge disinformation and questionable ethical practices.Shannon Hughes MSW, PhD, is a co-founder of Elemental Psychedelics, where she organizes high-quality training and experientials to help practitioners develop their relationship to the psychedelic space with clarity, humility, and integrity, drawing on her background in research and academia while valuing both scientific evidence and inner guidance systems. For more than a decade, she was a researcher and educator in Higher Education with a tenured faculty position at a State University before co-founding The Nowak Society in 2017, a Colorado-based non-profit that builds and organizes psychedelic communities while also contributing to psychedelic policy through advisory committees and publishing community-partnered research on "underground" psilocybin practitioners. Through her private therapy and coaching practice (An Enduring Love) and Elemental Psychedelics, she has developed and delivered introductory workshops, psychedelic immersive trainings, and psychedelic circles to health professionals, while maintaining her personal belief that practitioners should hold their own deep relationship with the medicines they work with.Episode Highlights▶ Dori Lewis's shift from traditional therapy to psychedelics to better support clients▶ Shannon Hughes's journey from academia to real-world psychedelic applications▶ How Elemental Psychedelics emerged from a shared vision for healing and community▶ What Colorado's Prop 122 means for personal and regulated psychedelic use▶ Why psychedelic therapy costs reflect deep training and regulation▶ The importance of trust in the therapeutic psychedelic relationship▶ How psychedelics fit into a wider healing toolkit▶ A reimagined future of healing through psychedelic practices▶ The rise of feminine leadership in psychedelic work▶ Navigating the challenges and opportunities of commodifying psychedelicsDori Lewis & Shannon Hughes's Links & Resources▶ Website: https://www.elementalpsychedelics.com/  Download Beth's free trainings here: Clarity to Clients: Start & Grow a Transformational Coaching, Healing, Spiritual, or Psychedelic Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/grow-your-spiritual-businessIntegrating Psychedelics & Sacred Medicines Into Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/psychedelics-in-business▶ Beth's Coaching & Guidance: https://bethaweinstein.com/coaching ▶ Beth's Offerings & Courses: https://bethaweinstein.com/services▶ Instagram: @bethaweinstein ▶ FB: / bethw.nyc + bethweinsteinbiz ▶ Join the free Psychedelics & Purpose Community: / psychedelicsandsacredmedicines

Send us a textA blend of biology, philosophy, and history exploring how hormones and endocrine disruptors affect social behavior and society.Episode Summary: Dr. Charles Cornish-Dale discusses the decline of masculinity in modern society, linking it to falling testosterone levels, environmental endocrine disruptors, and the limitations of liberal democracy. Drawing on Francis Fukuyama's “End of History & the Last Men” and historical perspectives, Cornish-Dale argues that biological and societal factors, including diet and hormonal interventions like birth control, are reshaping male and female behaviors, with profound implications for health and social structures.About the guest: Charles Cornish-Dale, PhD is a medieval historian and anthropologist with a PhD from Oxford. His new book is, “The Last Men: Liberalism and the Death of Masculinity.”Discussion Points:Thymos & Masculinity: Cornish-Dale uses the ancient Greek concept of thymos, meaning spiritedness, to explain male drives for recognition and distinction, which he ties to testosterone-driven behaviors.Testosterone Decline: Studies like the Massachusetts Male Aging Study show a ~20% drop in male testosterone levels over 17 years, correlating with reduced reproductive health and social withdrawal.Endocrine Disruptors: Chemicals in plastics, pesticides, and soy products mimic estrogen, disrupting hormonal balance and potentially causing developmental and behavioral issues.Diet & Behavior: Historical shifts to grain-based diets, as noted by Plato, and modern plant-based trends may suppress thymos and alter hormonal profiles, impacting societal dynamics.Hormonal Contraceptives: Birth control can thin the ventromedial prefrontal cortex in women, affecting emotional regulation, especially if taken during teenage years, with potential permanent effects.Fukuyama's End of History Framework: Cornish-Dale critiques liberal democracy's inability to satisfy megalothymia (the desire to be better), contributing to a crisis of purpose for men.Related episode:M&M 193: History of Diet & Food, Population Density & Social Stability, Psychological Pandemics, Physical & Mental Health in Civilizational CyclesSupport the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

Could the brain rewire itself for lasting transformation? Are we missing the root cause of attention, anxiety, and learning challenges?   In this episode of Kaleidoscope of Possibilities – Alternative Perspectives on Mental Health, Dr. Adriana Popescu sits down with Dr. Connie McReynolds, licensed psychologist, certified rehabilitation counselor, and expert in neurofeedback. With decades of experience in helping clients address ADHD, trauma, learning challenges, and more, Dr. Connie introduces a radically different way to look at these issues—not as permanent disorders, but as patterns that can be changed. Together, they explore how understanding auditory and visual processing—and training the brain to function differently—can offer real and lasting transformation for children and adults alike. Dr. Connie's work is helping change the narrative around mental health, empowering people to recognize their potential and reclaim their lives.   In this episode: • What neurofeedback is and how it works to rewire the brain • The root causes of ADHD and why they are often misunderstood • How trauma, anxiety, and learning disabilities relate to brain processing • The importance of a personalized assessment to find hidden challenges • Why the brain can continue to improve and heal—even decades later • Real-life client success stories, from children with dyslexia to veterans with PTSD • How neurofeedback can reduce the need for medication and improve daily functioning • The crucial role of empowering clients beyond diagnostic labels   Resources mentioned in this episode: • Dr. Connie's website: https://www.conniemcreynolds.com • Dr. Connie's book: Solving the ADHD Riddle • Dr. Bessel van den Kolk's Book: The Body Keeps the Score   About Dr. Connie: Dr. Connie McReynolds is a Licensed Psychologist & Certified Rehabilitation Counselor with over 35 years of experience in rehabilitation counseling and psychology. She is the founder of neurofeedback clinics in Southern California, helping children and adults reduce or eliminate ADHD, anxiety, anger, depression, chronic pain, learning challenges, and trauma. Through groundbreaking research, Dr. Connie has uncovered the underlying cause of ADHD, offering solutions that address its root rather than just managing symptoms. Her work equips individuals, parents, and educators with powerful strategies to transform learning, focus, and daily life. A sought-after speaker, she is dedicated to lasting change.   “The implications are so vast and the possibilities are endless for how this work could really help people—and help our society as a whole.” – Dr. Connie   Would you like to continue this conversation and connect with other people who are interested in exploring these topics?

 What happens when a rigid devotion to rules, order, and perfection replaces our ability to feel, connect, and live? In this episode, we explore two moving character studies from Fredrik Backman's novels A Man Called Ove and Britt-Marie Was Here. Through Ove and Britt-Marie—both fictional but deeply familiar—we see the beauty, heartbreak, and potential of the obsessive-compulsive personality.
