The title 'Nice Guy' has a friendly ring to it.

But, the reality is the nice guy, ain't so nice.

You might even be a Nice Guy (or gal) and don't even know it.

Dr Robert Glover, one of the OG's, wrote a cracker book called 'No More Mr Nice Guy'

Effectively, a nice guy is someone who inaccurately internalises his belief system from a young age that he is not ok, just as he is.

He carries a toxic shame around with him, and is therefore not his true authentic self.

In this Pod, I discuss the underlying issues they are masking and how to turn your nice guy syndrome around.

I hear a lot of Dad's say they get bored and don't like to play. But, as with many things in life it's the things we avoid, or don't want to do which are exactly the things that we must be doing!

Essentially your child just loves being around you, because you are their everything.

For your child - a Mom's hug, is equivalent to Dads playing with them. It's an exchange of love, of oxytocin, of the feeling of being secure.

Do not underestimate your role as the playmaker.

Discussion Topics: What you will discover from listening to this Podcast:

• The viral discussion on X which kicked off this week
• Transitioning from Cub to Lion
• Sacrifices required stepping into fatherhood

Getting Old Squeezes the Life Out of You

A pervasive theme of getting old is losing that spark, that life force, that engaging energy that used to make you shine.

The older we get the more our confidence diminishes and our "mojo" from youthful days is squeezed out of us and exacerbated by responsibilities of bills, dependants and everything that comes with aging.

But maybe, if we remind ourselves what we miss, we can search for that person and bring them back to life again!

Chris Williamson, recently posted a video about his health struggles over the last year or so.

Weaknesses are a tough thing for any man to admit. I really commend Chris for sharing his health challenges because it gets people talking and thinking about their own health too.

I wanted to share my thoughts, on some of the issues discussed, and also why I think taking care of your physical body is the most important thing you can do.

As the saying goes, "You can have a million worries, until your health is in jeopardy, and then you only have one worry"

You owe it to yourself and others, to be the healthiest you possibly can.
