In this powerful conversation, Coach Frank Rich sits down with Dr. Robert Glover, best-selling author of No More Mr. Nice Guy, for his second appearance on The Super Human Life podcast (first featured in Episode 64, March 2021).   Together they dive deep into the hidden struggles "Nice Guys" face around sexuality, shame, and intimacy and why so many men turn to pornography as a safe, controllable substitute for real connection.   Dr. Glover explains how internalized sexual shame, childhood conditioning, and cultural confusion about masculinity have left modern men disconnected from their true desires, emotionally isolated, and unable to build healthy, fulfilling relationships.   This episode exposes the root causes of Nice Guy behavior and gives men the tools to break free from guilt, fear, and avoidance—so they can reclaim their masculine confidence and experience real intimacy without shame.   Expect to Learn: Why 80% of Nice Guys struggle with sexuality and emotional intimacy   How sexual shame is internalized through childhood and social conditioning   Why many Nice Guys turn to pornography as a "safe escape" from real relationships   The hidden fear of women and rejection that keeps men stuck   How social media feeds instant validation and sexual stimulation loops   Why true intimacy requires risk, vulnerability, and self-honesty   The difference between being "nice" and being authentic   How to rebuild confidence and form deeper, healthier relationships   About Dr. Robert Glover: Dr. Robert Glover is a psychotherapist, speaker, and best-selling author of No More Mr. Nice Guy, a groundbreaking book that has helped millions of men worldwide overcome people-pleasing, approval-seeking, and passivity to live with more confidence, integrity, and authenticity.   Through his Nice Guy Recovery workshops, coaching programs, and podcast, Dr. Glover continues to challenge the modern narrative around masculinity—teaching men to embrace their sexuality, express their truth, and create meaningful, passionate connections in every area of life.   Learn more about Dr. Glover's work at drglover.com.   --- Connect with Frank and The Super Human Life on Social Media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachfrankrich/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/584284948647477/   Website: http://www.thesuperhumanlifepodcast.com/tshlhome   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjB4UrpxtNO2AFtDURMzoKQ  

Yup, this episode has it ALL! Even Doug's mom, Rosalee. He and JJ are going on a cruise with Rosalee and Ted, so if you want your fill of Doug, you'd better get it today, because you're not going to hear him for the next two weeks. I don't know what Strickland's gonna do, but I guess he'll figure something out. Probably at the very last minute, so don't be surprised if next week's episode isn't posted on time.

Building a UI in Python usually means choosing between "quick and limited" or "powerful and painful." What if you could write modern, component-based web apps in pure Python and still keep full control? NiceGUI, pronounced "Nice Guy" sits on FastAPI with a Vue/Quasar front end, gives you real components, live updates over websockets, and it's running in production at Zauberzeug, a German robotic company. On this episode, I'm talking with NiceGUI's creators, Rodja Trappe and Falko Schindler, about how it works, where it shines, and what's coming next. With version 3.0 releasing around the same time this episode comes out, we spend the end of the episode celebrating the 3.0 release.

In this episode, Merlin Matthews, founder of Man Academy, explores how men can move from isolation to connection, from being “lone warriors” who suppress emotions to connected men who grow through community and accountability. From childhood trauma and dissociation to running a global charity and now creating a movement to halve the male suicide rate, Merlin's story is as complex as it is hopeful. He shares what he's learned about breaking free from conditioning, such as the pressure to “man up,” hide emotions, and go it alone. You'll learn:Why so many men get trapped in “doing it all alone” and how to stop.How childhood conditioning shapes emotional disconnection in adult men.Why “doing the work” means applying insights, not just collecting them.The power of men's groups and accountability to help men heal and grow.Simple starting points for any man to begin his own reconnection journey.Why open, honest connection is the antidote to loneliness and self-doubt.Why listen: This is a grounded, honest conversation about what it takes to become a fulfilled, emotionally capable man in a noisy world. Merlin offers a rare mix of candour and practical wisdom, showing that the real path to growth begins when we stop doing it alone.If you want to connect with Merlin, visit his website: man.academyMerlin's suggested reading list:MEN'S WORK:Manhood, Steve Biddulph: King, Warrior, Magician, Lover: Rediscovering the Archetypes of the Mature Masculine, Robert L.

Hi guysss Happy Friday!!! Sooo … what a week, I promise that's there's not that much drama - well not from me at least

The Iowa Nice Guy returns for Week 9 — when the air's cold, the takes are hot, and Nebraska's still searching for self-respect. This week:Lane Kiffin's job-hunting, Nebraska's backsliding, and Brigham Young's 60 wives all make the cut in another roast-heavy episode of college-football therapy. The Iowa Nice Guy breaks down: Ole Miss at Oklahoma Vanderbilt vs. Missouri Nebraska vs. Northwestern BYU at Iowa State Iowa vs. Minnesota Kansas State vs. Kansas Sponsored by Modelo and HUDUModelo — Brewed for those with a Fighting Spirit. 

We've hit a lot of different (Canadian) genres in #VIDtober 2: kids film, thriller, horror, and now, comedy? Yes, comedy! 1987's MR. NICE GUY is the type of (Canadian) 80's comedy we haven't seen since THE FUNNY FARM (not that FUNNY FARM)! Literally, since star Mike McDonald (not that Mike McDonald) and co-writer Mark Breslin are both in that movie as well! (Which was also Canadian.) MR. NICE GUY goes a lot of places. From the Vietnam War to a store security guard to a contract Killer, McDonald plays a character that goes wherever the story takes him which, eventually, decides this should also be a love story between him and Jan Smithers (WKRP in Cincinnati). Does it all work? Does any of it work? What genre is it exactly? We explore, just enough so you might be able to log this one on Letterboxd. (or, if you truly want to watch the entirety of Mr. NICE GUY and do it right, check out our YouTube page!) For this episode, Erica is live from the Cave, Ryan is also working a shift at Rybusters, his in-home video store, and Marc tries to woo a potential new sponsor, a company dear to his heart whom we hope is going to listen! Fingers crossed, because this podcast can't survive on late fees alone! For all the shows in Someone's Favorite Productions Podcast Network, head here: https://www.someonesfavoriteproductions.com/.

Why Jealousy Destroys Nice Guys (And How to Finally Stop It)You see her laugh at another guy's joke. Your stomach tightens. Your mind spirals. You start checking her phone, stalking her social media, asking the same questions over and over.And then comes the shame.Jealousy doesn't just ruin relationships — it hijacks your entire life. And for Nice Guys? It hits harder than most.In this raw and revealing episode, Faisal, Chuck, and Ari break down the real psychology behind jealousy — why it exists, why Nice Guys struggle with it more intensely, and how to stop letting it sabotage your love life.In this episode, we dive deep into:Why jealousy feels like an emotional prison you can't escapeThe three fractures jealousy exposes: ego, emotional, and sexualReal stories of jealousy gone wrong (including Faisal's polyamory experiment)The dangerous projection: "If I don't trust myself, how can I trust her?"Why trying to control your partner always backfiresThe concept of "compersion" — can you actually rewire jealousy?How polyamory sounds great in theory but rarely works in practiceThe critical mistake: Selecting women with your fractured ego instead of your wise selfWhy Nice Guys pick incompatible partners and then try to change themThe difference between healthy jealousy and destructive obsession (retroactive jealousy OCD)How to know yourself well enough to choose the right partnerHere's the truth: Feeling jealous is normal. Even extreme jealousy is a natural response. But what you DO with it determines whether it destroys you — or strengthens you.You can't convince your heart with your mind. You can't logic your way out of jealousy. But you CAN heal the fractures that make you vulnerable to it in the first place.This isn't about becoming emotionless. It's about building the self-security, boundaries, and wisdom to handle jealousy without letting it control you.Whether you're obsessing over her past, spiraling over who she's texting, or trapped in a cycle of control and shame — this episode will help you break free.Stop suffering in silence. It's time to handle this.Like. Comment. Subscribe.

Is It Dangerous to Be a Man? Why Masculinity Gets Criticized Instead of CelebratedA coal miner shows up to his son's basketball game still covered in soot. He rushed straight from work to keep his promise. The photo goes viral — but not for the reason you'd think.Instead of celebrating his dedication, the internet tears him apart. "Performative masculinity." "Virtue signaling." "He could've washed his face."And that's when it hit us: No matter what a man does, someone will find a way to criticize it.In this powerful conversation, Chuck, Faisal, and Ari unpack one of the most uncomfortable truths of modern masculinity: being a man feels like walking through a minefield of judgment, shame, and cancel culture.In this episode, we explore:Why showing up as yourself can get you canceledThe difference between how masculine and feminine energy "destroys" — and why it mattersHow growing up in the feminist era made men feel guilty for being menWhy "mansplaining" and similar terms are designed to disempowerThe schoolyard mentality of men vs. women hatred — and how to rise above itWhat happens when you own your flaws instead of apologizing for themHow to develop thick skin in a world that loves tearing people downWhy empowering men doesn't come at women's expenseThe truth? When men feel disempowered, nobody wins. Not men. Not women. Not society.This isn't about playing victim. It's about standing up, owning who you are (flaws included), and refusing to collapse under criticism. It's about building connection instead of division.Whether you're tired of walking on eggshells, struggling with shame about your masculinity, or just trying to figure out how to be a good man in a world that constantly tells you you're doing it wrong — this episode is for you.It's time to stop apologizing for being a man.Like.

Ever caught yourself asking "What do women even bring to the table?" or heard women firing back with "What do men bring?" If you're asking either question, this episode is for you.Faisal, Ari, and Chuck dive deep into the mindset behind these toxic questions — and more importantly, how to shift from scarcity thinking to abundance in relationships. They get brutally honest about their own dark periods: failed marriages, emotional hostage situations, trauma bonding, and the wounds that kept them stuck in victim mode.Here's what we unpack:The psychology behind "what do you bring to the table" thinking (spoiler: it's rooted in pain and immaturity) How unhealed wounds sabotage every relationship you enter Why most people enter relationships from deficit instead of wholeness The difference between being needy vs. being whole and self-sufficient What healthy women actually do bring: beauty, nurturing, social connection, aesthetic sense What conscious men bring: leadership, protection, direction, emotional stability The "garden metaphor" — how to tend your relationship instead of just taking from itThis isn't about gender wars or pickup artist nonsense. It's about doing the inner work so you can actually appreciate what others offer instead of keeping score like a wounded child.Whether you're bitter from divorce, struggling in your current relationship, or single and cynical — this conversation will challenge you to look in the mirror first. Because until you heal your own wounds and show up whole, you'll keep attracting the same dysfunction.Time to stop asking what others bring to the table and start asking what kind of person you're becoming.

You're on a date. She says something unexpected. You freeze. Your brain goes blank. So you excuse yourself to the bathroom… and ask ChatGPT what to say next.​Sound familiar?​In this raw and thought-provoking episode, Ari, Faisal, and Chuck dive into the complicated relationship between AI and masculinity. From flirty texts written by algorithms to essays no one remembers writing, we explore a dangerous new trend: cognitive debt.​In this episode, we tackle:Why ChatGPT might be killing your creativity (and your dating life)The hidden cost of letting AI do your thinking for youHow AI responses are trained on feminine narratives — and what that means for menThe difference between using AI as a tool vs. becoming dependent on itWhy your brain literally gets weaker when you outsource hard thinkingThe future of relationships: Will men marry AI companions?How to stay sharp, authentic, and "chocolate" (not lettuce) in a world of artificial intelligenceThe uncomfortable truth? AI can make you look smarter in the short term — but it's eroding your self-worth, your memory, and your ability to handle real-life tension. And when you finally show up in person?

I was going to write some extensive show notes for this very entertaining and informative episode, when I stumbled across a really sweet post that Strickland put on Facebook. Since you might have missed it, I decided to copy/paste that here instead. Either that, or I was feeling really lazy and didn't feel like writing show notes (unlike every other Thursday night at 10:44 PM, which is when they finally get me the fuckery episodes and they need to be posted within a few hours), I'll leave it to you to decide. It's kinda like a "Choose your own adventure" book, but in this case it's a "Which version of Mr/Mrs. Show Note Writer do you want to believe?" If you're not a member of teh Facebook group yet, go to http://www.NiceShortCut.com and sign up. No, they're not going to try to sell you a bunch of shit, it's a nice, friendly group. OK, here's the post:For those of you who don't know (although, if you've even listened, I don't know how you could doubt this) Doug Sandler and I don't plan our Friday Fuckery episodes. Occasionally, we come with topics, but that's the exception, not the rule anymore. Today at 5:20 PM CST, 10 minutes before our scheduled recording time, I was not "feeling it." I'm a pro, and the show must go on, so I would never cancel on the fuckery, but on some days, it's more challenging than others. Doug, wasn't just not feeling it, he forgot and was actually running late! If you know Doug, you know this is a very, very rare occurance, but in this instance, it gave me the perfect opportunity to adjust my attitude and get myself in the right headspace. JJ Flizanes also joined us, which was a very pleasant surprise, since I haven't seen her in quite a while, and she brings a bit of grounding to the insanity that is "Doug & Strickland." This is an image I captured right after we finished recording, and it's a great reflection of the vibe of the episode. I'm so grateful every day for this amazing life I'm living, for having amazing people like Doug in my life, and for all of you (mostly anonymous) listeners enjoying the fuckery every week. We have a handful of Funkin' Fans who call in semi-regularly (you know who you are) and even though they represent a small percentage of the downloads we get every week, we still appreciate all of you, whether you call in or not. If you're one of those anonymous listeners, call 4242-DJ DOUG and leave us a message. We don't even care what you say, but it would be great to know you're out there. If you're not inclined to do that, at least like this post, or leave us a comment. Doug Sandler and I are real people, and as Ryan Bokros so famously said years ago "I met Doug and Strickland, and I can confirm that they are the same assholes you hear on the show." Thanks for sticking with us, even if you choose to stay anonymous. Do you want some cool merch? Check out the store here- https://www.niceguysonbusiness.com/merch Need podcast production?

Ever been called a ‘pick me'? It's been a cultural buzzword for years to describe women who seek male validation by putting down other women - but have we taken the term too far? 

UAE expat lawyer Byron James says it’s time the system better recognised the role of dads – and the pain of reduced child access after divorce – when considering custody. Meanwhile, it’s October, which means hopefully thousands of women are making sure they check their breasts. Dr Amrita Kumar talks us through a hi-tech new screening system – and the intro of AI – that it’s hoped could change the game. And as a major new international study reveals that being agreeable is working against men looking for love, Dr Thoriya explores the situations where nice guys finish last.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In case you missed it, which I know you did, because Strickland told me that no Funkin' Fans showed up at Dig World, you missed a great party and the opportunity to meet Doug and Strickland. Some podcasters charge for a meet and greet, or sell tickets to their live shows, but not these guys, they just tell you where they are going to be and offer to buy the drinks...But alas, still no action from the listeners.

JOIN THE 7 DAY RESET - ▶️ www.therebuiltman.com/7dayreset   Most men think they watch porn because they're horny... but the truth runs much deeper.   In this powerful episode of The Rebuilt Man Podcast, Coach Frank Rich exposes the hidden connection between Nice Guy Syndrome and porn addiction  and why so many men stay stuck in cycles of shame, avoidance, and false comfort.   You'll learn how cultural conditioning trains men to suppress their truth, perform for approval, and seek validation through pleasure instead of purpose. Porn becomes the safe escape for the Nice Guy, a place where he can feel desired without ever facing rejection, risk, or reality.   Frank breaks down how this pattern weakens masculine power, destroys intimacy, and keeps men spiritually numb  and more importantly, how to break free.   Through truth, brotherhood, and structure, you can learn to confront fear head-on, reclaim your masculine edge, and live as the man God created you to be.   Expect to Learn: Why most men don't watch porn out of lust  but out of fear   How Nice Guy Syndrome creates avoidance, passivity, and emotional disconnection   The real reason porn feels safe and why it's destroying your confidence   Why love without truth is manipulation   How reclaiming masculine aggression and integrity restores power   The role of brotherhood in lasting transformation   Why structure, discipline, and truth are the foundation of freedom   Key Takeaways: Porn isn't about desire, it's about avoiding truth and rejection   Nice Guys seek comfort over confrontation and that's what keeps them weak   False intimacy through porn leads to shame and disconnection   Masculine strength is built through truth, boundaries, and courage   Brotherhood and accountability are the antidotes to isolation   Freedom requires structure, discipline, and a clear mission   The world doesn't need more Nice Guys… it needs Rebuilt Men     Connect & Take Action Join The Rebuilt Man Brotherhood for a free 7-day trial and get access to live coaching, accountability, and the tools to finally break free.   ▶️ www.therebuiltman.com/7dayreset   – Follow Coach Frank: IG - https://www.instagram.com/coachfrankrich   YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@CoachFrankRich   Website - https://www.rebuiltrecovery.com/homepage

This week, the Iowa Nice Guy covers everything from Penn State's annual Top 10 meltdown to Deion's gospel of Prime, and why Nebraska's is stuck in a covered wagon wheel rut.

If you've ever felt confused by men who say the right things but never show up with the same energy, this video will help you recognize real kindness, emotional maturity, and integrity — the kind that doesn't fade once he gets what he wants.I'll share how to spot: • The difference between genuine and performative kindness • Signs he respects your boundaries • How truly good men behave when they don't get their way • Why peace might feel “boring” if you're used to chaos • And what to do when you finally meet a good manThis one's for the women who are tired of bare-minimum love and ready to experience peace, reciprocity, and the kind of connection that feels safe.

In this episode, host Moon Zappa talks with Play Dirty screenwriter-director Shane Black (The Nice Guys, Iron Man 3) & co-screenwriters Charles Mondry (Road House)  & Anthony Bagarozzi (Road House, The Nice Guys) about collaborating on their action crime thriller, adapting the Parker book series from page to screen, and more.

Why does trying to be a “real man” scream insecurity? Why do so many guys turn into neutered, “yes dear” pushovers? And could all this talk about masculine and feminine energy be a big distraction? Today Alyson and I break it down. What do people really mean when they talk about masculine and feminine energy? Why do some swear it's the secret to passion, polarity, and purpose? And what if the whole thing is missing the bigger point?   https://www.thenewmanpodcast.com/2025/10/masculine-feminine-energy   COACHING   → To learn more about coaching with Tripp Lanier visit https://TrippLanier.com → To learn more about working with Alyson Lanier visit https://AlysonLanier.com   BOOK   → We live in a world with more possibilities than ever before.

Have you noticed that trying to be “Mr. Nice Guy” or constantly people-pleasing can actually keep you stuck? On the surface, it may look like kindness or keeping the peace, but prioritizing others' approval over your own needs often leads to resentment, disconnection, and the very behaviors you're trying to overcome. In this episode, Coach Jessica explores how people-pleasing creates a cycle of self-abandonment disguised as kindness. She shares how to stop managing other people's feelings, allow for discomfort in relationships, and engage in real, honest conversations that deepen connection.

Gary and Shannon close out the show with a packed final hour. Shannon's still pushing for Gary to celebrate the show's 10-year anniversary with a piercing before diving into #WhatsHappening: from TMZ leaking footage of Mark Sanchez's altercation to Dodgers playoff updates, Ghislaine Maxwell's denied appeal, Taylor Swift's record-breaking box-office weekend, and Governor Newsom facing pressure to crack down on SoCal's copper thefts.Then it's #GaSFantasy4Play as the pair review their NFL week 5 picks before pivoting to weather updates on Tropical Storm Jerry and rescue efforts for 200 hikers stranded on Mount Everest. They wrap the hour with a #MotivationMonday clip from Friday Night Lights and an intriguing discussion on “quiet cracking” the new counterpart to quiet quitting.

We'll spin around and wag our tails for a treat -- we're kinda shameless that way here at Breakfast All Day. October begins with reviews of three very different films: GOOD BOY, a lean and clever horror movie told from a dog's perspective. Indy, who's director and co-writer Ben Leonberg's own retriever, is actually the best boy. And in case you're worried: He's OK at the end. In theaters. PLAY DIRTY, a listless action comedy from director and co-writer Shane Black, who's had a much better track record with this kind of movie in the past ("Kiss Kiss Bang Bang," "The Nice Guys"). Mark Wahlberg and LaKeith Stanfield lead an ensemble cast. Streaming on Prime Video, but you should avoid it. ARE WE GOOD?, an intimate documentary that looks at the life and career of comedian and "WTF Podcast" host Marc Maron. In particular, it focuses on how he's working through grief after the death of his girlfriend, filmmaker Lynn Shelton. We liked this. In theaters. Next week is nuts, with about eight movies coming out that have awards potential, or at least year-end buzz. So keep your ears open, and we'll help guide you through this busy time.

It's Strickland's birthday? And I didn't even get him a present. How old is he going to be? Fucking ancient, I'd say, but he and Doug fail to mention an actual age on the episode. You should call 4242-DJ DOUG and leave him a happy birthday message for the show next week, I'm sure he'd appreciate it. If you're anywhere near Katy, TX (West of Houston) on Saturday Oct. 4 between 1-3 you should drop by Dig World and wish him a happy birthday in person.

In this episode of the No Film School Podcast, host GG Hawkins sits down with legendary screenwriter and director Shane Black, known for iconic films like Lethal Weapon, The Last Boy Scout, The Nice Guys, and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. The two dive deep into Black's creative process, his latest project Play Dirty (an adaptation of Donald Westlake's Parker novels), and how his filmmaking journey and sobriety have shaped his vision. From staying true to source material while adding his unique voice, to building character-driven action scenes and navigating Hollywood with integrity and purpose, Shane shares invaluable insights for filmmakers at every stage. In this episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins and guest Shane Black discuss... What drew Shane to the Parker novels and how he approached adapting them The balance between honoring Westlake's tone and injecting Shane's signature wit How to structure complex stories while preserving ambiguity and character depth Creating blue-collar, competent anti-heroes as a more grounded alternative to spy thrillers The role of pre-visualization, animatics, and spontaneity on set How Shane leads a creative and collaborative environment with his cast and crew The power of post-production and the art of shaping the final story in the edit Building creative stamina and the importance of structure in a writer's day Advice for filmmakers entering a fear-based industry with confidence and authenticity The impact of sobriety and self-awareness on creativity and leadership Memorable Quotes: "Parker is a lot of things. Sentimental is not one of them." "You're comparing your insides with their outside. So they look great... So are they." "You don't die from a feeling.” "Be so good they can't ignore you."

Co-Host Owen Marcus (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/meld) My first-time guest Owen Marcus is a proponent of Polyvagal Theory, which is about how our body and brain work together to respond to stress, be that everyday annoyances or more significant trauma. It has a huge impact on how we as men carry ourselves physically. So you can easily figure out how understanding this theory and the somatic awareness that comes from it would make you more attractive to women. After all, when you gain mastery over your body in the way Owen talks about, your physiology is less likely to, well...sort of betray you. That may sound complex, but Owen describes it all in a way that not only makes perfect sense, but its practical and actionable. For example, this concept finally makes the concept of "emotional availability" more tangible, and even influences how we find ourselves being "Mr. Nice Guy". What is "co-regulation", and why is that social/physical phenomenon central to the whole theory? How does understanding Polyvagal Theory assist us greatly in the quest to make women feel safer and more comfortable with us? What are some physical manifestations of us not being in tune with really feeling what our bodies are telling us? (HINT: A lot of guys make themselves look like dorks without even realizing it.) What does Polyvagal Theory have to do with either you OR her feeling something is just a bit "off"? And how does it finally help us understand what it really means to "relax"? Next, there's fight or flight, or something WAY worse...and we as men do it ALL the time. Meanwhile, how does Polyvagal Theory contribute to being more charismatic? How can it help us not only mesmerize and attract women, but make more male friends as well?

Men today are facing a silent crisis. Suicide rates are climbing, loneliness is at epidemic levels, and society continues to confuse men about what it truly means to be masculine. In this powerful conversation, Coach Frank sits down with men's life coach and Groups for Men co-founder McKenzie Beeby to unpack the cultural forces at play, the hidden dangers of Nice Guy Syndrome, and the tools men need to reclaim their strength, purpose, and faith.   Together, Frank and McKenzie explore the historical roots of the men's crisis, the role of shame and ego, and how distorted views of masculinity fuel brokenness in men's lives. They highlight the importance of community, vulnerability, and brotherhood and provide a roadmap for men who are ready to stop hiding and start living the life they were created for.   About McKenzie Beeby McKenzie Beeby is a life coach for men, speaker, writer, and co-founder of Groups for Men, one of the largest online support communities for men in the U.S. With a background as an entrepreneur, business owner, filmmaker, and mentor, McKenzie has dedicated his life to helping men overcome destructive cultural narratives about masculinity. His mission is to equip men to step into lives of strength, compassion, and integrity by breaking free from Nice Guy Syndrome, healing past wounds, and cultivating brotherhood.     Expect to Learn Why men today are facing the greatest identity crisis in history   The hidden costs of Nice Guy Syndrome — and how it sabotages marriages, careers, and faith How shame and ego create toxic patterns in men's lives The influence of media and cultural narratives on masculinity Why loneliness and isolation fuel addiction, anger, and despair Simple tools men can use to communicate better and live with integrity How vulnerability and brotherhood create true masculine strength The role of faith in helping men reclaim purpose and freedom Why defining success on your terms is key to becoming the man you were created to be   Key Takeaways Men are struggling with rising suicide rates and epidemic loneliness. The men's crisis has historical roots dating back to post–World War II cultural shifts. Success must be clearly defined in today's confused world. Toxic masculinity is often just shame in disguise. Brotherhood and community are non-negotiable for men's growth. Vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness. Faith is a cornerstone for true masculine identity.   Connect with McKenzie: Groups for Men - https://groupsformen.com/   Website - https://mckenziebeeby.com/   Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/mckenziebeeby/   --- Connect with Frank and The Super Human Life on Social Media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachfrankrich/     Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/584284948647477/     Website: http://www.thesuperhumanlifepodcast.com/tshlhome     YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjB4UrpxtNO2AFtDURMzoKQ
