• Episode 3.09: Introducing the Authentc Men Community
    Mar 19 2024

    Some guys discover the world of men’s work, try it out, and discover it’s not for them. Perhaps they’re not ready to dig in, or the work simply doesn’t resonate with them.

    Others engage in the work and are forever changed. They embark on a journey of discovery, take their discoveries back to their lives, and live the better versions of themselves. They benefit their spouses and partners, their children, and their communities. They make strides toward achieving the growth they’ve been seeking.

    There’s a third group of men, however, who begin doing the work and recognize that this will be their lifelong mission or their legacy. They get called to a life of service of bringing this approach to emotional healing to every man they meet.

    That’s what happened to me. The work changed me deeply, and I resonated with its power so greatly that it became my ministry to bring this work forward to help men heal their deepest wounds.

    My guests today fit into that last category. These are men who found the work and recognized that they are called to pay it forward.

    In this episode, I welcome the founders of Authentc Men: Phillip Gaynor, Dan Kline, and Tom Szigethy. Through their work, they are creating a community in which men can achieve their best selves while recognizing that no man has to do it alone.

    We think you’ll enjoy hearing what they have to say about their journeys, the work, and how their new community can foster connection and healing. So let’s get on the road!

  • Episode 3.08: Freedom From Anger with James Clemmons
    Mar 12 2024

    Losing your cool. Flying off the handle. Blowing a fuse. No matter what you call it, we all do it now and then: Get angry.

    In today’s episode, we’re taking a deeper dive into this topic that touches every one of us. But this isn't just about the moments when we’ve seen red; it's about understanding the roots of our rage, navigating our emotions, and ultimately, finding freedom in the ways we respond to the world around us.

    In this episode, we're joined by James Clemmons, a Marine veteran who's turned his personal battles with anger into a beacon of hope for many. James is the founder of Freedom from Anger LLC, an organization dedicated to helping individuals, especially those who are incarcerated, to manage their anger, reduce stress, and lead healthier emotional lives.

    Through his work, James has seen firsthand the transformative power of self-awareness, acceptance, and the courage to seek help. We'll explore the physiological responses our bodies have to anger, the societal impacts of unmanaged rage, and how, to paraphrase something James said, 'managing anger doesn't mean eliminating it—it means understanding it.'

    So, whether you've struggled with anger yourself or know someone who has, this conversation is an invitation to look inward, to challenge our perceptions, and to discover the freedom that comes from truly understanding and managing our emotions. So let’s get on the road!

  • Episode 3.07: Take It to the Next Level with Kevin Palmieri
    Feb 27 2024

    Lining up guests for the podcast can feel risky at times. Unless the guest is someone I know well—an acquaintance or personal friend—I’m taking a leap of faith that this person and I will have enough to talk about to keep the conversation going for the better part of an hour. The concern might be that the person isn’t interesting, or the conversation flags. Or, worse, the person’s area of expertise may not align at all with our focus on finding and living one’s authentic life.

    I had a small case of those jitters when I booked today’s guest, Kevin Palmieri. Kevin, as founder and co-host of Next Level University, comes from the worlds of podcasting and coaching, but with a decidedly different focus and vibe than is usual for our show. Yet as Kevin and I talked, something interesting happened: Two guys who I thought came from very different places started speaking the same language. And when that happened, I saw how my suppositions could have limited what turned out to be a beautiful interaction.

    Kevin is an energetic, dynamic, and engaging speaker with a lot to say about personal growth, pursuing our personal authenticity, the power of community, and more. We think you’ll enjoy this ride. So let’s get on the road!

  • Episode 3.06: Creating Order From Chaos with Shane Thrapp
    Feb 20 2024

    Do you ever get the feeling that you’re somehow different? Like how the world works just isn’t right for you? Or maybe you’ve noticed that your ways of processing your experience don’t seem to follow the same patterns as other people’s?

    It could be more than just a feeling.

    In today’s episode, I am excited to introduce you to ADHD life, relationship, and career coach Shane Thrapp. Through Shane’s story, we'll explore the nuances of living with both ADHD and autism spectrum disorder — from the struggles to the unexpected gifts. Shane's journey from personal battles to becoming a guide for others serves as a powerful testament to the strength found in embracing our diversity.

    My conversation with Shane was a complete eye-opener for me, as I didn’t realize how much I didn’t know about the neurodivergent experience. I think you’ll find his impressive journey to discovering and expressing his authenticity unique, surprising, and inspiring. So let’s get on the road!

    About Shane:
    Shane's mission is to guide those who are neurodivergent on their unique journeys to find acceptance for their authentic self while empowering businesses, educators, and parents to provide the support that neurodivergent people deserve.

  • Episode 3.05: One Year of Men's Work with Ross Taylor
    Feb 13 2024

    We talk a lot on this show about men doing their personal development work and seeking to become the best versions of themselves. We discuss techniques and modalities. We talk about the tools we teach and the behaviors we seek to model. But what does it look like when a man actually does the work and applies these skills to his life?

    In this episode we welcome my friend and men’s work brother Ross Taylor. Unlike many of our guests, Ross is not a professional in the field of personal development. He’s neither a coach, facilitator, nor author. He is to my mind something much more impressive: He’s a man who has applied his learnings to change his life for the better. 

    Ross is an articulate and insightful proponent and practitioner of the work. We think you’ll find him not only an affable and charming fellow to spend some time with, but also a relatable everyman who is making the journey toward his best self. So let’s get on the road!

  • Episode 3.04: Reiki Energy Work with Heather from Universal Elements Healing
    Jan 30 2024

    Hello all you beautiful humans. We hope you're enjoying life as you tune into this week's episode where we explore Reiki and energy healing. Maybe you've heard of it, or maybe you've even experienced working with a Reiki practitioner.

    Or maybe you have absolutely no idea what Reiki and energy work are. In today's episode we are joined by Heather, a Reiki and energy practitioner, and owner of Universal Elements Healing and Wellness.

    We have both worked with Heather and are excited to have her with us on the show to talk about the science behind and workings of energy healing. In full disclosure, we once were skeptics about this, but it only took one session with Heather to dissolve that skepticism.

    So what are Reiki and energy healing? How do they work? How does someone connect to and work with someone else's energy without even being in the same room? What's the experience of a practitioner during a session? How can energy work benefit you?

    Join us as we explore these questions and more. So let’s get on the road.

  • Episode 3.03: Warrior Compassion with Sean Harvey
    Jan 23 2024

    What is the intersection of masculinity and compassion?

    In a world where men are often conditioned to be tough and unemotional, our guest, Sean Harvey, sheds light on a different path. Sean, a visionary in blending masculine strength with the power of vulnerability, invites us to rethink what it truly means to be a man in today’s world, especially for those men operating within hypermasculine systems—from the staunchly traditional military and law enforcement to the gleaming towers of Wall Street.

    We'll dive deep into his groundbreaking approach from his book 'Warrior Compassion,' exploring how Sean’s personal experiences have shaped his mission to heal and empower men.

    As we navigate these discussions, we’ll uncover the transformative power of embracing both masculine and feminine energies, breaking down barriers, and fostering a space where men can openly express compassion and empathy.

    Please join us on this inspiring journey. We’re about to open the doors to a new understanding of masculinity, one that champions emotional health and wholeness. So let’s get on the road!
