Everyone's talking about Aubrey Marcus right now... Calling him a narcissist, a fraud, and tearing him down for contradicting himself publicly. But I'm here to say something different.In this episode, I share my honest take on why I finally feel like Aubrey is being real, and why his messy, vulnerable, and public contradictions might actually be a reflection of something deeper: the energetic shift from Pluto in Capricorn to Pluto in Aquarius.This isn't just about one man's choices. It's about the end of authority as performance, the collapse of pedestals, and the rise of raw, unfiltered authenticity. I talk about spiritual leadership, the pressure to have it all together, and how being seen in your evolution, mess and all, is where true power lives now.I also share a personal story about the transgender movement, the dangers of performative allyship, and the difference between bandwagon activism and real, embodied support. It's all connected to this new Aquarian energy of nuance, contradiction, and radical self-expression.If you're ready to throw away the script, question what it really means to lead, and embrace your most liberated self, you'll want to hear this.✨ Mentioned:The Pluto in Aquarius revolutionCancel culture & messy healingTransitions in authority, leadership & spiritual powerMy Higher Self Healing Codes course for navigating your chart & emotions with ChatGPT

This week, we dive into the ever-thorny topic of physical attractiveness, honesty, and the complicated etiquette around saying what you actually think, especially to women. They discuss the social costs of radical honesty, the benefits of being perceived as a reliable truth-teller, and the minefield of commenting on a partner's looks. Comparisons are drawn between intelligence and beauty, with a healthy dose of evolutionary psychology for good measure. Keith expresses admiration for high-IQ self-awareness, while Mike explains his method of gauging intelligence through diction, unless someone has the audacity to be foreign. The conversation then shifts to online dating profiles, where the hosts lament the apparent laziness of women's efforts and propose increasingly elaborate theories about why no one is trying very hard. Mike expresses surprise that women don't treat their profiles as quinceañera-level events, while Keith wonders if some sort of mandatory SAT verification might improve the filtering process. The duo expresses a nostalgic yearning for more earnest selectivity, though they acknowledge it likely wouldn't help. They touch briefly on sugar dating platforms, naturally, and what kinds of men and women such sites tend to attract. As always, the discussion veers into biologically adjacent territory, with a spirited (and extremely dry) debate about whether titty-fucking is functionally useful or just another one of those things men insist on despite universal female disinterest. Keith confesses he's never tried it, prompting Mike to explain, in painstakingly practical terms, why it mostly results in cleanup logistics. The anatomical limitations of breasts, necks, and angles are considered in unexpected detail. There is also a diversion into nipple sensitivity statistics, as if the show were about to pivot to an academic journal. Twitter: @ymmvpod Facebook: ymmvpod Email: ymmvpod@gmail.com

Send us a textReady for some unfiltered truth about self-love? Forget the Instagram-worthy bubble baths and calming candles—this episode tears down the facade of performative self-care to reveal what loving yourself actually requires.Self-love isn't a vibe or an aesthetic—it's a practice built on radical honesty and keeping promises to yourself. When you post about "boundaries" but still answer texts from people who drain you, when you claim to deserve better but continue settling, you're not practicing self-love—you're lying to yourself.True self-respect requires four essential elements: radical honesty about your habits and choices, keeping your word to yourself (because if you don't trust you, why should anyone else?), knowing when to walk away even from people you love, and creating internal safety rather than seeking validation from outside sources. These aren't comfortable practices, but they build the foundation for genuine confidence.The episode provides practical habits you can implement immediately, including making a daily non-negotiable list (pick just one promise and keep it), speaking to yourself with respect, doing something inconvenient that honors your future self, and tracking the gap between what you want versus what you tolerate. Self-love isn't built on dopamine hits—it's forged in moments of discomfort and difficult choices.Your new mantra? "I am no longer abandoning myself just to make other people comfortable. I trust myself to keep my word. I will stop shrinking into smaller spaces that I've outgrown." Because genuine self-love isn't soft—it's fierce, and it's about choosing yourself over and over until it becomes second nature. Ready to stop abandoning yourself? This episode shows you how.

It's no secret that most men want to find love in life and someone they can partner with throughout life. But the reality is that far-fewer men are doing the work required than ever before. And, for those who are actively looking for love, many of them are floundering when it comes to approaching women and building interest that could potentially lead to a long-term relationship. David Meessen is a man who has made it his life's work to help men understand why they struggle and why society, at large, seems to be continually stacking the deck against the type of relationships the men listening to this podcast are looking for. Today we talk about why men seem to be so intimidated in approaching women, the skills (and, they are learnable skills) you can develop to have a more successful dating life, why “Progressive Desensitization” is such a valuable option in love and in life, the alarming statistics around romantic relationships and young men's increasing aversion to them, and how radical honestly (not overly-agreeableness) is what creates attraction.

If there's anything our culture likes to collectively ignore, resist and hide, it's aging. And yet, aging happens to every single one of us - whether it's aging parents, aging partners or aging selves, we all have an experience with it.  With age comes the opportunity for nourishment and deeper learning, but aging also comes with some unpleasant emotions and experiences.  Cognitive and physical decline and even loss are all parts of the process of getting older. How do we learn to treat these things as a learning adventure? How do we deal with loved ones becoming shadows of their former selves?  Instead of resisting the things that come with aging, embracing them makes life richer. The skill of learning to be with unpleasant experiences and emotions is one we can learn at any point in our lives, and it certainly comes in handy when we're getting older.  How do we build this skill? What are the gifts of aging? In this episode, we're joined by couples therapist, relationship coach, author, speaker, college professor, trainer, and founding teacher of the Getting Real work, Dr. Susan Campbell. She shares how we can be more prepared for unwanted changes and why that can be an enriching experience.    Things You'll Learn In This Episode  -Use everything that happens for learning When it comes to aging, most people want to resist or ignore what happens. Why do we need to allow what is to be there? -The loop of awareness Unpleasant interactions don't just throw you out of connection with your loved one, they also affect your connection with yourself. How do you find yourself again? -Embrace, don't erase How do we approach the aging population? How do we avoid making assumptions about their reality?

I'm back with Lesson 5 in my Coming Home to Yourself series, sharing what I've found to be the seven essential foundations for building a healthy, lasting, and loving relationship. I also talk about how some of these foundations have helped shape my relationship with my new partner, Dr. Fox (not his real name…more on that later)! As I get ready to celebrate my 50th birthday in April, I've been reflecting on the biggest life lessons I've learned about love, partnership, and personal growth.  The health of our relationships has a huge impact on our overall well-being, which is why choosing the right partner, whether you decide to get married or not, is one of the most important decisions you'll ever make. A thriving relationship isn't just about chemistry; it takes emotional maturity, communication, self-trust, resilience, and daily effort. In fact, love isn't just about finding the right person, it's about being the right person.  Download this episode's worksheet at http://andreaowen.com/664 What you'll hear about in this episode: Emotional Maturity and How to Own Your Sh*t: Self-awareness, self-regulation, and recognizing when you're projecting past wounds. Radical Honesty and Authentic Communication: Honesty fuels connection, even when it's hard or messy. Self-Trust & Independence: Keep your passions, friendships, and personal growth alive. Conflict Resilience: You Two vs. The Problem: Ditch shame, defensiveness, and the need to “win.” Letting Go of Control and Holding Boundaries: Trust your partner while standing firm in your needs. Deep Respect and Mutual Appreciation: Love is a daily choice, not just a feeling. Shared Vision and Growth: Use the “Relationship Check-In” to assess what's working, what's not, and what you both need. Resources from this episode:

If you're still on the never-ending hamster wheel of “doing all the things” but still feel like you're getting nowhere, buckle up because today's episode is your reality check. We're talking about something that might make your Type A tendencies twitch—slowing down. Yep, the thing that feels impossible but is actually the secret sauce to unlocking your fertility and overall well-being. Rebecca Rankin is back, and we're diving deep into why ignoring your body's signals, overriding your natural rhythms, and stuffing your schedule with all the “fertility must-dos” is actually working against you. We're talking about real radical honesty—the kind that makes you question your midnight Googling sessions and your obsession with finding the next best supplement. Spoiler alert: the answer isn't out there. It's in you. Always has been. We also get into the not-so-sexy but oh-so-important truth about consistency, how your hormones affect EVERYTHING (yes, even that sudden urge to question your entire existence while doing the dishes), and why menopause might actually be your power era instead of something to dread. Plus, we tackle the biggest lie in the fertility world: the idea that once you “fix” your health, life will be smooth sailing forever. Newsflash—it's a lifelong journey, but one you actually have control over. So, if you're ready to ditch the frantic energy and actually start aligning with your body's wisdom, this episode is for you. Let's go.

In this third installment of the How to Heal series, I'm talking about radical honesty - why it's important, what happens when we're not honest with ourselves, and how to get more honest.You'll Learn:What it means to be radically honest Why it's so hard for us to be honest with ourselvesSigns that you might have some healing to do4 strategies to increase your self-awareness and honestyYou can't heal from anything until you're aware of what it is that is causing you pain. Listen to learn how.---------------------------------In this healing process, we're trying to tap into our most pure state of being, where we have a deep sense of peace and wholeness so that we can be okay no matter what is happening around us. Why Honesty MattersYou can't heal from anything until you're aware of what it is that is causing you pain. Often, we are unwilling to look at our patterns and our pain because it creates a discomfort in us that we don't know if we can handle. But the truth is, what you resist persists. If you resist your pain, it will stay. Being willing to really look at ugly, hard, difficult things about ourselves and our lives requires us to be radically honest with ourselves. Ultimately, you're healing yourself so that you don't harm your kids. Because, in full love and safety, yelling at your kid, shutting down, or being rough with their body hurts them. I want your children to grow up and not have to heal from childhood wounds.Now, everyone is gonna get hurt in childhood. In life, pain is inevitable. It's how we deal with pain, how we talk about pain, and how honest we are that actually creates the healing in real time.When you start to get honest with yourself, you'll probably start to notice some clues.Thinking negatively and critically of yourself…Feeling despair, discontentment, discomfort, anger, resentment, confusion, or lack of clarity …Behaving in ways that hurt you or others (like your kids)...These are all really good indicators that you might have something to heal from. Why Honesty Is So HardI think of radical honesty as being willing to admit how you are thinking, feeling, and acting - even when it's uncomfortable. Being honest about your pain is the key to healing your pain. So, if honesty is so important, why aren't we honest with ourselves and each other about our pain?We often don't even realize how cruel we're being to ourselves with our thoughts, we don't understand why we're feeling or acting the way we are. We also live in a society that tells us we should be happy all the time (good vibes only

I emphasise why it's crucial not to accept this idea too early in the healing process. We need to focus on acknowledging the harm and injustice inflicted upon us before considering the limitations and reasons why our abusers acted the way they did.

Radical honesty and feedback are some of the most critical leadership skills, yet so many leaders struggle with them. Why? Because they're uncomfortable, and we're wired to avoid discomfort. But as my guest, Ron Carucci, explains, avoiding feedback comes at a cost—misalignment, poor performance, and eroded trust. Ron is the co-founder and managing partner at Navalent, a consulting firm specializing in transformational change for organizations. He's spent 30+ years coaching executives at Fortune 10 companies, startups, nonprofits, and government agencies, helping them build accountable, high-performing cultures. He's also the author of To Be Honest: Lead with Power, Truth, Justice, and Purpose, a book that unpacks a decade of research on what makes organizations truly honest—or dishonest. In this episode, we explore why feedback is so difficult, how leaders can create a culture of transparency, and tangible ways to give feedback effectively. Ron shares powerful insights on self-honesty, why leaders avoid tough conversations, and how to dismantle toxic workplace dynamics with open dialogue. What You'll Learn in This Episode: ✅ Why avoiding feedback is selfish and cowardly—and how to shift your mindset ✅ The power of self-honesty in leadership (and how your "origin story" shapes how you give feedback) ✅ How to create a psychologically safe workplace where feedback flows in every direction ✅ The biggest mistakes leaders make when giving feedback—and how to fix them ✅ Simple but powerful strategies to normalize real, honest conversations in your organization

Ron Artis II, Radical Honesty.This episode features live musical performances and was recorded in September of 2019.At the time we noted that Ron Artis II was growing into a newly accessible and emotionally acute period of his life.
