REWIND Episode #41 How to Find Purpose There is one thing that comes up more than most when it comes to working with men; PURPOSE. Sure, many guys want to 'get confidence' and some want to simply get out of the frustrating place they are now, stop the sabotage and spending a vast majority of their time caught in their head. But even for those guys, at some point, the work turns to 'finding purpose', Which, when you talk to them - as I do all the time - the idea we have gleaned from the world of ...

REWIND Episode #26 Why You Can’t Get Your Shit Together (And How To) The realm of personal development has a few different worlds in it. One of those is the idea of just being better ‘ #liveyourbestlife - which tends to focus on just following your dreams and passions and being positive all the time. Unfortunately, for many of us, this sets unrealistically high expectations and ultimately encourages by-passing of shit we actually need to learn, sit in, process, and move through. As a result, we ...

REWIND Episode #09 How to Live with Integrity In this episode, I venture into and explore something very close to my heart - and head and balls - and that is INTEGRITY. It is my highest value, because, for me, everything else is determined by this. If I don’t have that, then all my other values don’t really get a chance. Join me as I share some personal stories - including the first one in which as a younger man I fell into a common trap; lying to someone I liked and pulling myself right out of ...

REWIND Episode #11 with Amber Hawken I've been very fortunate to be her friend for some time. And that has been both in just two humans connecting on a level that we get each other, but also because of, you know, where we're at and the work that we do.

I wanted to bring her on because, as a woman, I believe she has a beautif...

REWIND EPISODE #02 Mark Groves, Mr @createthelove. I was thrilled to have Mark on the show to bring the piece that first connected us to this very topic of the Everyday Legend - a piece he wrote about the ‘Evolved Man’, challenging women who say they want this man if they’re ready for him.

In this episode, we'll uncover the truth about being a "nice guy" and explore covert contracts. I explore three common ways that nice guys secretly place conditions on their kindness through "covert contracts." Drawing on my experience coaching over 1,000 men, I identify how nice guys often expect unspoken reciprocation for favors or help without communicating their expectations. I urge listeners to reflect on whether they engage in this secret nice guy behavior and how to move past it to build ...

On this episode of the Everyday Legends podcast, I share my personal journey of redefining what it means to be a man. Growing up, I followed many of the traditional ideas of masculinity like being tough, not showing emotion, and seeking validation through achievements and women. However, over time I realized this wasn't truly serving me. I felt lost without a strong sense of my own identity. I pulled on threads of self-awareness and individuality, which led me down a path of confronting fears, e...

Here’s a common desire in so many men - “I want to be more confident” which, if not obvious, follows the proclamation “I’m just not confident enough” - or words very close to that effect. They’re the words of men focused on a story they have around confidence - that they don’t have it and they need to find it. But it goes beyond that, it extends into this idea I have that some people have it, they're doing things I’m not, and because they have it and I don’t, there must be something wrong with m...

Ahhhh, the friendzone. That lonely yet connected, comforting yet terrorising, familiar yet frustrating place. Of course, the friend zone isn’t the only place we might end up chasing unrequited love - sometimes it’s in a relationship that stutters and two people seem to be misaligned. Either way, finding ourselves in the place of wanting someone and them not wanting us back, or them being unavailable to us, can be heart-aching and life-consuming. That’s the subject of this week's podcast episode ...

THIS IS A REWIND EPISODE -- For the Nice Guys reading and listening to this - I feel you. Because I’ve been you. 100% self-confessed recovering nice guy here. With honest reflection, feedback, clarity, and some sobering acknowledgements I saw that some overarching motivations were because I needed to be liked. Insecurity yearned to feel like I was important to and valued by others so I could convince myself of the same thing. What a shit-sandwich that was! One I kept making and...

In this episode, I dive into the idea of being a high value man and what that really means. So many men are confused by this term, but I break down that true value comes from living according to your core values. I discuss how our values are like a compass, guiding our character and lives. However, many men's values have been shaped by insecurity rather than self-respect. I offer a process for examining your values - what you've really valued in the past versus what your best self would value. L...

In this episode of the Everyday Legends podcast, I discuss how we can often feel like we don't have enough time and get caught up in being "busy". I explore how this is usually a reflection of our relationship with ourselves rather than a real lack of time. I share how telling ourselves we need to "find time" is disempowering and prevents us from prioritising what's truly important. Instead, we must choose to make space and be intentional with our energy. I also discuss the fear that many men ha...
