Podcasts about nice guy syndrome

This episode of Integrative You Radio dives deep into the misunderstood world of neurodegenerative diseases—especially ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis). Dr. Nicole and Dr. Nick unravel the hidden connections between environmental toxins, like cyanide and algae exposure, and the emotional roots of disease, such as self-betrayal and the “Nice Guy Syndrome.” They challenge the conventional view of ALS as just a physical diagnosis, shining a light on how a lack of self-love and unexpressed truth can manifest physically. The Doctors share practical wisdom on breaking free from people-pleasing, the importance of knowing your values, and how real healing starts with radical self-awareness and communication.   #ALS #NeurodegenerativeDisease #SelfLove #IntegrativeMedicine #RootCauseHealing #PeoplePleasing #ValuesDriven #FunctionalMedicine #EmotionalHealth #SpeakYourTruth #HolisticHealth #MindBodyConnection #WellnessJourney #DrNicoleRivera #DrNickCarruthers #IntegrativeYou   3 Key Takeaways: ALS and other neurodegenerative diseases may be linked to cyanide exposure—not just from the environment but from internal sources like cyanobacteria (blue-green algae), highlighting the need for deeper diagnostic approaches. Long-term people-pleasing, self-betrayal, and putting yourself last (especially for parents and caregivers) can create profound stress and disconnection from self, which may contribute to disease. True healing begins with radical self-love, clear communication, and living in alignment with your core values—knowing who you are is the foundation for transformation.    Quotes:  “Every single aspect of disease is literally how far away from love are you? And that will equal the degree of the disease.” – Dr. Nick “If you're not going to speak up and exercise your truth, or stand for yourself, you're mentally not speaking up—and that can manifest as a physical disease.” – Dr. Nicole   Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify   2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

At just 25 years old, Kijuan was thriving—building a career he loved, starting a business, and chasing his dream of becoming a pilot.

In this episode of the Modern Man Podcast, host and guest Dr. Robert Glover delve into the complexities of male identity, the challenges of Nice Guy Syndrome, and the importance of community in personal growth. Dr. Glover shares his journey from being a 'nice guy' to understanding the deeper issues that men face in relationships and personal development. He emphasizes the need for men to embrace vulnerability, establish boundaries, and seek support from like-minded individuals. The conversation highlights the ongoing nature of self-improvement and the significance of authentic connections in overcoming personal struggles. In this conversation, Dr. Robert Glover discusses the importance of male connection and community, emphasizing how men's groups and retreats can transform lives. He explores the concept of boundaries, reframing them as tools for leadership and deeper relationships. Through personal anecdotes and insights, he highlights the necessity of experiencing community and the profound impact it can have on personal development and emotional health. Dr. Glover also shares a life-changing near-death experience that reshaped his perspective on life and fear. Takeaways The journey of self-improvement is ongoing and never truly finished. Nice Guy Syndrome often stems from early life experiences and emotional memories. Men need to learn to be vulnerable and open about their feelings. Establishing boundaries is crucial for personal growth and healthy relationships. Community support plays a vital role in overcoming personal challenges. Men often overcorrect from being 'nice' to being overly assertive or selfish. Authenticity is key to building trust in relationships. Self-sacrificing behaviors can lead to decreased relationship satisfaction. It's important to recognize and address emotional triggers in relationships. Men benefit from learning in a supportive group environment. Men need connections to learn from their experiences. The community can provide support and accountability. Experiencing a men's group can be transformative. Boundaries are about self-empowerment, not control. The 'ouch' method helps communicate feelings effectively. Healthy boundaries invite deeper relationships. Men are wired to be part of a tribe. A near-death experience can change your outlook on life. Setting boundaries can lead to healthier interactions. Men's retreats offer invaluable experiences for growth.   Glover' s Links Website: drglover.com Books: No More Mr. Nice Guy: No More Mr. Nice Guy Dating Essentials for Men: Dating Essentials for Men Social Media: X: dr_r_glover Facebook: drrobertglover   Free eBook Here: Mastering Self-Development: Strategies of the New Masculine: https://rebrand.ly/m2ebook   ⚔️JOIN THE NOBLE KNIGHTS MASTERMIND⚔️ https://themodernmanpodcast.com/thenobleknights

If you constantly feel anxious at work, overloaded with tasks, or stuck in a cycle of people-pleasing—this video is for you. Many Nice Guys struggle with setting boundaries, both in the workplace and with family. The result? They get walked all over, burned out, and feel like they're never good enough. In this episode, we break down: ✔️ The real reason your boss keeps piling work on you (and why you can't say no) ✔️ Why people-pleasing makes you less respected, not more ✔️ How manipulative or critical parents keep you stuck in self-doubt ✔️ Practical strategies to set boundaries and regain control of your life The hard truth?

You'll gain respect, reduce stress, and finally start living life on your own terms.

"I feel like I've lost myself over the years. I don't even know who I am anymore."I've heard this countless times from men in my groups—and I've been there myself. Life transitions like fatherhood, career shifts, breakups, and injuries can leave you feeling disconnected from your fire, your passion, and even your sense of self. But this feeling isn't random—it's a pattern, and it has deep roots.In this episode of The Path, we dive into Nice Guy Syndrome, a pattern of people-pleasing, avoiding conflict, and losing yourself in relationships. I'll share my personal wake-up call, the hidden beliefs that fuel this behavior, and how to break free.We'll also cover:The three biggest traps that keep men stuckThe difference between solitude and isolationHow to rebuild self-trust and take actionWhy brotherhood and accountability are essential for growthHow small shifts in language can change your storyIf you've ever felt lost, this episode will help you find your way back.Links & ResourcesNew Men's Community & GroupLearn More about The Vital Man Collective, click hereUpcoming Men's Retreats:May 17-20th, Primal Reset Retreat Collab with Tim Corcoran, Mt.

Nice Guys aren't being nice—they're being manipulative, using approval-seeking and people-pleasing as a way to control how women see them, all because they're too afraid to be rejected for who they really are.When it comes to women and men, I've come to the realization that it's insecurity that drives us to seek approval from women. It's subtle, often invisible, but it's there—this craving for validation, for someone to tell us we're enough. But here's the thing: no matter how much approval we chase, it's never going to fill the gap. It's a hollow pursuit. Real maturity, real grounding, happens when we let go of that need, when we realize that our worth isn't something that can be handed to us by someone else. It's already inside, waiting to be claimed. The moment a man stops seeking validation from women, he becomes a mature integrated man.

Tired of being the 'nice guy' but afraid of becoming a jerk? Discover how authentic masculinity transforms your relationships and ignites genuine desire. If you're a man who finds yourself constantly seeking approval or walking on eggshells in relationships, you'll learn about Nice Guy Syndrome, how to break free from people-pleasing patterns, and why authenticity is the key to better relationships. Learn why being "nice" can actually damage your intimate connections and how to develop genuine confidence without becoming a jerk. Whether you're single and struggling to connect or in a relationship feeling sexually unfulfilled, this episode has transformative insights for you.  Stop sacrificing yourself for approval - start living authentically and watch your relationships transform.

Emotional pain is unavoidable—but how you handle it determines your confidence, resilience, and overall well-being. Most “Nice Guys” have been taught to suppress their emotions, thinking that sadness, anger, or anxiety make them weak. But real strength comes from facing these feelings head-on without letting them control you. In this video, I break down how to stop fearing emotional pain and start using it as a tool for personal growth. You'll learn: Why suppressing emotions creates suffering (and how to stop) A simple technique to process feelings without overthinking them How to turn emotions like anger, sadness, and fear into productive action Why labeling emotions can make them worse—and what to do instead By the end, you'll have a clear roadmap for handling emotional pain in a way that builds confidence and self-respect, rather than keeping you stuck in Nice Guy habits.

In this episode of The LightInside, host Jeffrey Besecker delves into the concept of conditional self-worth and its impact on our relationships. He examines the subconscious and unconscious patterns that contribute to the "nice guy syndrome," exploring how early attachment wounds and covert social contracts shape our behaviors. The discussion highlights the chronic issues of over-acquiescence or ‘people-pleasing', avoidance, and emotional dependency—prompting listeners to reflect on whether these patterns serve them or lead to self-sabotage. Join us as we unravel the forces behind conditional self-worth and discover pathways to healthier social connections.Timestamps:[00:02:22] Nice guy syndrome explained.[00:05:13] Conditional love and connection.[00:07:23] Conditional love and protection.[00:10:44] Isolation and anxiety spiral.[00:13:16] Healthy acceptance of fear.[00:16:34] Childhood emotional needs and conflicts.[00:20:23] Fear and hypervigilance in relationships.[00:22:27] Vulnerability and emotional sharing.[00:27:17] Courage to be disliked.[00:29:25] Disagreeing while staying authentic.[00:32:01] Vulnerability and authentic relationships.[00:36:36] Attachment styles and nice guy syndrome.[00:39:35] Arousal misattribution and identity.[00:42:54] Healthy rejection and emotional intelligence.[00:44:31] Rejection and personal narrative.[00:48:20] Ego development and self-perception.[00:52:20] Emotional wounds and relationships.[00:56:17] Staying in emotional tension.[00:56:58] Overcoming shame through connection.[01:00:06] Reframing emotions for self-acceptance.[01:03:56] Anger as a call to action.[01:07:01] Healthy boundaries and nice guy syndrome.[01:10:18] People-pleasing and emotional dependency.JOIN US ON INSTAGRAM: @thelightinsidepodcastSUBSCRIBE: pod.link/thelightinsideCredits:Featured Guest: Jay ScottExecutive Producer: Jeffrey BeseckerExecutive Program Director: Anna GetzMixing, Engineering, Production and Mastering: Aloft Media Studio

In today's episode of Men's Therapy Podcast, host Marc Azoulay sits down with Dr. Robert Glover. He is the renowned author of "No More Mr. Nice Guy" and a leading expert on men's issues. Dr. Glover discusses his transformation from a "nice guy" to promoting genuine masculinity. He now advocates for building healthy relationships based on authenticity. Dr. Glover's story begins with his relationship struggles. He realized that being "nice" wasn't serving him well. He shares how his second wife's ultimatum pushed him to seek help. This experience inspired him to write his groundbreaking book. As a therapist and through personal experience, Dr. Glover noticed patterns in men who were "too nice." He saw how these behaviours held them back. To address this, he developed strategies to help men break these self-defeating habits. His work now focuses on empowering men to embrace authentic masculinity. The Shadow Side of Nice Guy Syndrome Dr. Glover delves into the darker aspects of Nice Guy Syndrome. He explains that nice guys often aren't as nice as they believe themselves to be. This leads to the development of toxic masculinity over time. He explains that behind their pleasant exteriors, these men often conceal resentment. They may also display passive-aggressive behaviour. Some may even struggle with violent impulses. The root of this behaviour lies in toxic shame and anxiety developed in childhood. "Nice guys have this shame and this anxiety. And what they do, the way that it, the way there, the particular neuroses of nice guy syndrome shows up is through two ways. One, trying to become what we think other people want us to be, to be liked and loved and get our needs met. So, we're chameleons," Dr. Glover explains. Identifying Needs and Wants One of the key challenges for nice guys is recognizing and expressing their own needs and wants. Dr. Glover offers practical advice for men struggling with this issue. He advises men to start by recalling activities they enjoyed as a child. He guides them to focus on their basic needs as well as emotional needs. Men need to understand the distinction between needs and wants. By practising giving to yourself instead of always giving to others, this can be achieved. Dr. Glover emphasizes the importance of "cooperative reciprocal relationships" in meeting one's needs. He encourages men to surround themselves with people. And resources that can help them fulfil their needs and wants in a mutually beneficial way. Role of Women in Men's Development While the focus is primarily on men's growth, Dr. Glover addresses the role women can play in supporting nice guys' development. He suggests that women can offer constructive feedback when necessary. They can be supportive and reinforcing when men make efforts to change. They can work on being better listeners and more attentive to men's emotional cues. But, Dr. Glover stresses that the primary responsibility for change lies with men themselves. Future of Men's Development Dr. Glover expresses optimism about the future of men's development. He notes the increasing availability of resources and communities for men seeking growth. He envisions a new generation of men who are more conscious and open-hearted. They are powerful and fierce, yet connected. They are in touch with their dark side and are joyful and receptive in life. "We're gonna make a fucking dent in the universe. We're gonna make a difference in this world. And, I see that happening," Dr. Glover enthuses. Conclusion This episode of the Men's Therapy Podcast offers invaluable insights for men looking to overcome Nice Guy Syndrome. It offers guidance to develop healthier, more authentic relationships. Dr. Glover's decades of experience and wisdom offer hope for men struggling with these issues. He highlights the importance of taking responsibility for one's needs and wants. Men must recognize the value of cooperative reciprocal relationships. This allows the need for men to step into their role as conscious, open-hearted leaders. Dr. Glover's optimism about the future of men's development is infectious. He envisions a generation of integrated men who can make a significant positive impact on the world. As we look to the future, it's evident that the work of overcoming Nice Guy Syndrome is more relevant than ever. There is a rise in passivity among younger generations. Hence there's a growing need for resources and communities. Ones that can guide men towards a more authentic and fulfilling expression of masculinity. By seeking out supportive group therapies, men can work towards becoming more integrated. They can become authentic versions of themselves. This will benefit not only their own lives but also their relationships and the world around them. About Dr. Robert Glover Dr. Robert Glover is a renowned psychotherapist, author, and speaker.

A lot of men want to know, will I be a nice guy forever? The conventional wisdom in nice guy coaching is that you will always be recovering from vestiges of the syndrome, that you are always susceptible to falling back into nice guy patterns.  But can some or all nice guy patterns be fully resolved or eliminated? Just how much can someone change?

Despite a long history with therapy, coaching brought a new approach by focusing on self-trust rather than external circumstances.

Today, I'm joined by Dr. Robert Glover. Robert is a therapist, coach, speaker, and author of the groundbreaking book, No More Mr. Nice Guy. This is a must-read for men who struggle with expressing their needs and setting healthy boundaries without feeling guilty or shame. In our conversation, we explored how our childhood traumas set the stage for how we manage emotions and interact in our relationships and how to ditch those "covert contracts" we make with people, assuming they should read our minds and know what we want without us having to say it. Robert shares practical advice on how to set boundaries in a way that doesn't alienate others and instead draws them in. You'll also hear about the 3 covert contracts that nice guys make with themselves that cause anger and frustration. We also bonded a bit by talking openly about how we handled disagreements in our own marriages, how easily we get triggered, and how to approach these moments with love the next time. Enjoy! A Wide-Ranging Conversation Through… Early days of No More Mr. Nice Guy The toxic extremes of nice guys and jerks Identifying the two types of “nice guys” The challenge of managing boundaries & shame Three covert contracts that nice guys make The link between our nervous system and triggers  Robert's mindfulness routine for dealing with anxiety How letting go brings us closer to the answers we seek Boundaries are for me, not you Get the Full Show Notes Want access to the full show notes, including links to all resources mentioned during today's conversation?

Go ahead, google Dad and you'll find Dad Bod, Dad Jokes, Dad Weed, etc. Culturally, it's a Homer Simpson mentality, and it's BS.   Our community is built for solid men. Men with range. Those who are badass, and know there's still more to learn, together.   Most guys find it hard to find “their crew.” Finding other committed men, who are successful in life, and want to put family first – these guys are rare. Is this you? In FRD, hundreds of men from all over the world show up for each other, to share resources and raise the bar of fatherhood (our core values) If you're reading this, you want to grow.  Podcasts are great, but guys… when you're ready to stop just listening to content, and want to JOIN the conversations – the FRD brotherhood is ready for you.   One more thing…  Has this podcast helped you?
