As we near the end of The Tortured Poets Department: Anthology, Exquisite and Hannah analyze the beautiful and melancholy "Robin," in which Taylor sings to Robin (herself?) and how she wishes to hel keep their innocence forever. They talk about the song's connection to the theme of innocence and innocence lost, which is found throughout Taylor Swift's discography in songs such as "Never Grow Up," "Would've Could've Should've", and "The Best Day."

Why some narcissists will never grow up. Arrested development is a thing that happens to a lot of narcissistic people in their childhood where they are traumatized and get stuck at a certain emotional age. They physically grow up but emotionally they get stuck at a very young age. Welcome my channel! If this is your first time seeing my face or hearing my voice, my name is Lee and I am a self aware narcissist. I have narcissistic personality disorder ( NPD ) and I've been in therapy for my personality disorder since 2017 and it has definitely changed my life because without it, I would have lost everything. The point of these videos is to help bring awareness from the other side of the narcissistic *buse spectrum. All my videos give perspective on why many narcissists do what they do and the possible different reasons behind them. The victims and survivors get validation and the Narcissists (those that are willing) get to see that you can get help and that you are not alone.

Peter Pan was convinced that the worst thing that could happen to you is that you would grow up. Walt Disney said that the trouble with the world is that people grow up. Jesus said that if you weren't like a little child, you would never inherit the Kingdom of Heaven. Yet Peter, Paul, and others are insistent that we mature and grow and stop acting like little children. Who did Jesus agree wit- Peter Pan and Walt Disney or His apostles? The paradox of following Jesus is that he seems to agree with both. How is that possible?

When someone receives the gospel, that individual starts the journey of discipleship. We often classify such new believers as spiritual infants. But what happens if those young in their faith never grow past their initial faith commitment? It's time to go the second mile in growing up through the Word of God.

Co-Host Sydney Richdale (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/richdale) This episode features returning guest and sexpert Sydney Richdale. As promised, Sydney offers her uniquely female perspective on how men can grow up but not necessarily reach an evolved, mature sexual mindset. Fasten your seat belts because this indeed is a VERY different episode than last week's edition. Sydney gets as practical and objective as possible, throwing down some actionable ways we as men can supercharge our sexual presence with women in ways few men ever get to enjoy the results of. For starters, we agree that there's a time and place for the most primal, visceral and even selfish aspects of human sexuality. But it shouldn't be to the exclusion of what gives sexual relationships a whole lot more depth and meaning. So then, what are those more 'evolved' elements, if you will? In order to express mature male sexuality, must every sexual experience be relationshippy and about falling in love long-term? What does it mean to be 'connected to one's c*ck'? What can we do to enrich the sexual experience so it's not simply about orgasm and ejaculation? And what the heck is 'sensual choreography'? How does learning to take our time enjoying sexual pleasure translated almost directly to instant sexual maturity? And how does our sexual evolution affect any shame and guilt we feel...and act upon? What makes most men think they're excellent lovers when they're clearly not? And along with ED and PE, what about that OTHER sexual performance issue nobody talks about, but which TONS of young men in particular are affected by?

Now that Speak Now (Taylor's Version) is under two months away, we are finally getting back to our Speak Now Stories series, in which we explore the possible moments that may have inspired Taylor Swift's most diaristic and detailed album. In this first part we look into what seems to be the first thematic batch of songs made for the album which include explanations and analysis of Haunted, Better Than Revenge, If This Was A Movie and Last Kiss. Through them an evolution in songwriting can be seen and many interesting details can be picked apart, including a reference to a Jonas Brothers song! Finally, we also discuss Never Grow Up, a touching song which marks another big theme that Taylor has spoken a lot about in connection to Speak Now retrospectively, the loss of innocence and naive sense of youth all too soon.

Get your free Personal Reboot Guide at www.theconfidentman.meCheck out more resources to help you as a man at David Maxwell CoachingThe design of men is a powerful one. Men can fight wars, invent new things, and run major corporations, but also play in the playground with their kids all day. Men have a natural play instinct which is important for the development of them and their children. The problem is without proper development many men get stuck in the playing mentality and never grow up. Maturity is not the lack of play or fun, but knowing when it is appropriate and when it isn't. So we are going to look at some of the main reasons men aren't growing up so we can recognize the problems and work to overcome them. Lack of ExamplesSome men have never grown up because they never saw what a grown man was supposed to act likeA lot of guys have grown up in confusing timesThis beat down of masculinity has left a lot of men confused and now many of these men are the dads todayThe other serious problem is the lack of dads and role models of what a man is all aboutMany men are wandering around not knowing where to go as a manMany boys didn't have an example so they are trying to figure it out as they goFor young men who realize this need, they have to put in extra workLack of IngredientsMany men have not grown up because there has been a lack of ingredients in their lifeA number of men had some things happen when they were young that stunted their emotional growthDivorce is a reality many men dealt with in their lives as childrenOne of the hardest things for boys to overcome is the addictive nature of pornThe statistics for boys who have been sexually abused have been increasing over the yearsBullying is another emotional growth event that many people don't think ofTraumatic events do affect us when we were kids and we need to make sure they aren't affecting our life today by keeping important ingredients out of our everydayMany men have a void of insecurity that they are trying to fill that comes from their childhoodLack of ChallengeA lot of men were hamstrung as they grew up because many things were done for them and they were never challengedI don't think parents did this on purpose but they were so focused on the protection that they stunted their child's growthNow this doesn't mean parents can teach everythingMany men today are grown men who grew up with no responsibilities so they didn't learn how to be responsibleMany of these men were shielded from consequences so they don't have a full understanding of what consequences are or how they workWe can't hide boys from challenges

Join Sal and Josh to find out what it means to become a man, why we don't truly know our children and why we should be more present with them, and how to grow through discomfort. Listen To Episode 494 As Sal Di Stefano Uncovers: [1:30] Following Family Values And Traditions Sal Di Stefano Mind Pump Media Mind Pump Podcast: Josh Trent Of Wellness Force On The Future Of Tech In Fitness & Beyond 437 Josh Trent | Death & Rebirth: Why I'm Saying Goodbye to Wellness Force… The things that happen to us vs the things that happen for us. Why Sal sees his journey as a blessing, even though it was difficult and painful. What it was like being raised in a traditional Italian family that immigrated to the USA and didn't have much money. The sense of responsibility: Being the oldest son and feeling like a father to his 3 siblings. Following the family tradition and getting married at the age of 22 to a girl with a similar background. [10:30] Marriage And Growing Apart How divorce can break you and why Sal didn't want to be a weekend dad. Ending a 15-year marriage and asking himself: What did I do wrong? Why did it not work out? Getting into a marriage because of his family values, and putting all his time into making money and working hard. What he believed a dad's job was and how different values led to a lot of fights. Avoidance in Sal's marriage: Burying conflicts and not understanding the importance of growing together. Our modern culture: Glorifying being a single man who's having fun VS your life being over when you get married and have children. What made Sal feel like he was missing out and feel resentful. [14:20] How Resentful Thoughts + Feelings Are Created One of the biggest lies that is sold to us according to Sal. Peter Pan Syndrome in men, how it's related to consumerism, and how men change as consumers when they become fathers. Objective VS subjective morality. Why men with children and are devoted to their spouses are happy, and why middle-aged female executives without children are the least happy.

[19:35] Searching For Novelty VS Becoming A Man Why novelty makes us feel alive and the connection with the limbic brain. Getting pleasure without the work and having access to what you want all the time: Why is it a problem? The current problems are not new problems, it's a new environment. Envy: One of the 7 deadly sins has been around for thousands of years but the circumstances are different now. Why Sal thinks a good woman turns you from a boy into a man. Differences between men and women: The biological clock, emotional attachment. Chris Rock: “A man would live in a cardboard box if that's all he needed to do.” Jordan Peterson The spiral of evolution: The right woman will make a man grow. Why older adults in long-term relationships have better sex. [23:30] Do We Really Know Our Children? Sal shares why not exercising actually hurts more than doing an exercise, and why eating whatever you want is not enjoyable. His life after divorce: Trying to be present for his children and have a good relationship with his ex-wife. How divorce finally brought Sal closer to his children, and how his view on day-to-day tasks completely changed. What makes him feel guilty about raising kids with his second wife. Josh shares his experience with taking care of his son and getting to know him. [27:12] Providing For The Family How to provide for your family: Creating a balance between what you produce with your wants. The ways Sal would provide for his family if his life was more unfavorable, and why the values he has matter. Why he tries to not be on his phone even when his son plays by himself. Child development: Why the first 7 years are pivotal for our children. [29:00] What It Means to Be Present How to drive more value from our behavior and the importance of presence. The difference between modern hunter-gatherers and us: Why are we always distracted? Why we need to practice presence and how to get better at it. Josh explains why the monkey brain is a construct of the default mode network and how our brain is impacted by trauma. Sal tells how he tried meditation for the first time and thought it wasn't for him. You have to practice to become better. Why he places himself in situations where it's hard to get distracted.

Arthur Brooks [01:17:00] Why We Can't Avoid the Small Things What beliefs make Sal avoidant in the relationship with his wife: Avoiding the small fights only to get into a big fight.

Resistance Training Revolution by Sal Di Stefano Why it's important to find a community to learn what you're interested in as well as against. Power Quotes From The Show The Vulnerability Of Fatherhood "Being a dad, you definitely realize how invincible you were before in the sense that you've never been vulnerable like you are the second you care about something more than yourself." - Sal Di Stefano Facing Mortality: What Is It That Truly Matters? "If you look at studies on people who are faced with their mortality, people with chronic disease who have a year to live, people on the death bed… Nobody says I wish I worked more or I made more money. Everybody says I wish I spent more time with my kids, I wish I had kids, or I wish stayed with that partner, I wish I was more with my family and friends." - Sal Di Stefano Same Problems, New Environment "These problems that we have today are actually not new problems. It's a new environment… The reason why people are unhappy now is although we have more, they can see the next guy that has more than they do, as they compare themselves. That's not a new problem… This is human behavior. I don't think they're new problems, I think we have different circumstances. Human behavior doesn't change, I think we still have to learn the same lessons." - Sal Di Stefano Links From Today's Show Dr. John Gottman 451 Laura Coe | Understanding Akashic Records: How To Live Your Dharma, Spiritual Bypassing, Twin Flames & Soul Mates MPM: 1480 How To Find Peace & Meaning Amid Chaos With Bishop Robert Barron 484 Stefan Chmelik | Vagus Nerve Toning: The Science + Spirit of Healing From Stress With Sensate The Bible - Isaiah 45:7 405 Tim Corcoran | Vision Quest: How To Find Your Place In The Ecology of Life, Purpose Mountain & Spiritual Courage 457 Josh Trent: Solocast | Healing The Father Wound, 100+ Hours Fasting, Vision Questing + Being Alone With Mother Nature's Wisdom Mind Pump Media Mind Pump Podcast: Josh Trent Of Wellness Force On The Future Of Tech In Fitness & Beyond 437 Josh Trent | Death & Rebirth: Why I'm Saying Goodbye to Wellness Force… Jordan Peterson Joe Dispenza Bruce Lipton Arnold Schwarzenegger MPM Co-host: Adam Schafer MPM Co-host: Justin Andrews MPM Producer: Doug Egge Paleo Conference - Austin, Texas Shawn Stevenson: The Model Health Show 384 Shawn Stevenson | Eat Smarter: Use the Power of Food to Reboot Your Metabolism, Upgrade Your Brain, and Transform Your Life 333 Dr. Kelly Brogan | The Spiral Path: How To Own & Love Your Self Jessica Di Stefano Arthur Brooks Chris Kresser MPM: 620 Chris Kresser On The Chronic Disease Equation, The Potato Hack For Fat Loss, The Disease Worse Than Being Eaten By A Shark & MORE 140 Unconventional Medicine – Chris Kresser MPM: 1480 How To Find Peace & Meaning Amid Chaos With Bishop Robert Barron MPM: 910 Paul Chek Paul Chek MPM: 1792 The Secrets Of Happy People With Arthur C.

A painfully skinny teenager, he felt insecure about his physique and his lack of muscle and strength. Fitness was a way for him to apply hard work and effort towards changing and re-inventing himself. A natural intellect, Sal devoured every fitness, physiology and nutrition publication he could get his hands on. His appetite for knowledge is voracious and he used his passion for learning to maximize his own body's potential. 4 years later Sal walked into his local 24 Hour Fitness gym and applied to be a personal trainer. He quickly became a top performer and, at the age of 19 was promoted to the position of general manager with as many as 40 employees working under him. During this period of time, Sal learned to master skills of sales, marketing, and communication and his gyms broke records in sales and production. At the age of 22, Sal became an entrepreneur. He opened a wellness and personal trainer facility that offered one on one training, massage therapy, nutritional counseling, hormone testing, and acupuncture. At the age of 28 Sals health took a bad turn. Sal's Wellness Journey The years of training his own personal body with excessive amounts of intensity in the pursuit of more muscle combined with the abuse of supplements caused his body to rebel. He lost 15 lbs of muscle and at one point believed he may have an autoimmune disorder. This forced Sal to change his personal approach to fitness. He made health a priority and he visited his insecurities that caused him to abuse his body. It took him a full year of study and learning to transform yet again. Sal learned about gut health, hormone health and how to prioritize health over appearance. He healed his body and changed how he communicates fitness and health and was re-invigorated with a new sense of purpose. Although this was a challenging time for him, it is literally what formed his view on health and how he communicates it to this day. MAPS Programming At 33 years old Sal met Doug Egge who became his client. They formed a close friendship and together they created the first Maps program. Sal was the designer of the workout plan and Doug created the marketing material behind it. Their goal was to shatter the failed muscle-building workout ideas that Sal had personally witnessed as entirely ineffective. They knew that MAPS programming would be vastly superior. Their challenge was how to bring this to the masses. 2 years later Sal met Adam and Justin and together with Doug they started Mind Pump. The goal with Mind Pump was simple... Bring quality fitness and health information to the masses with integrity and honesty. Sal wanted to shift the direction of the fitness industry from an aesthetic insecurity-based industry to a self-love and self-care health industry. He knew this could be accomplished with education through entertainment.

Alan Z is an Asian American hip-hop and R&B rapper, musician, and actor from Atlanta, GA. He fell in love with music and acting at a young age and uses it to own who he is and to be the best version of himself.
We're back! That's right, after a much needed break - hey, we have day jobs...cut us some slack - we bring unto you a gift just in time for the holidays, with some reflection upon the struggle our OTG has with growing up. As we discuss how various generations define maturity, we journey through how our generation grapples with its own definition of what being an adult really means. We reminisce on the things from our past that we continue to cling to, like cartoons and toys, and have frank discussions on possible culprits that trapped us in our youth, like lacking access to real estate and consumerist culture. So, grab your collectible action figures and turn on your Adult Swim, we're going to talk about adulting and stuff and whatever.
Mark laughs for ages about racist morons, wishes Joshua would be 8 forever and tells you his fasting regime.
At 140 MPH and just feet off the ground, every flight that professional wingsuit pilot Sam Hardy takes requires a deep connection with nature and ultimate trust in his jumping partner. (Read the full article on The Outdoor Journal). Over the past 14 years, Hardy has completed over 1,800 BASE jumps in 27 different countries, which makes him one of the world's leading experts on the sport. Hardy runs a BASE jumping school where he teaches students the techniques of BASE jumping and wingsuit flying. Steadfast to Peter Pan's credo “Never Grow Up,” Hardy believes that we are meant to carry on our childhood playfulness throughout life. Hardy also co-founded Project Base, a non-profit company, in order to combine his passion for wingsuit flying with the chance to give back to others. In 2015, Hardy and his partner Nate Jones flew to Ethiopia to complete a world's first BASE Jump in the Simien mountains, in conjunction with providing fresh water and school furniture to students. As if wingsuit flying was not difficult enough, Hardy straps various cameras to his gear to capture footage for documentary films, which requires an additional level of air awareness, concentration, and trust to film his subjects at cinematic angles. Wingsuit flying is a sport misunderstood. Athletes jump from cliffs, mountain tops, tall buildings and other objects with the goal to fly in close proximity to the ground, yet at a safe enough “angle of attack” to avoid contact. Each flight takes hours of mental preparation which involves closely reading the terrain and weather conditions. In this episode, Sam will discuss the purpose behind his wingsuit adventures, the mechanics of flight prep, what it was like to be mistaken for the Messiah on his first descent into Ethiopia's Simien Mountains and how to deal with life's stressors better by facing ultimate risk.
