Integrated Man Project Travis Goodman, LMFT

In this compelling episode of The Integrated Man Project titled "From People Pleaser to Authentic Self: A Transformation," host Travis Goodman is joined by Cowan Austrie, Personal Trainer at The Studio Montreal, who delves into his personal journey of self-improvement through vulnerability and emotional honesty. Here are three key points from their discussion:



1. **Changing Behavioral Patterns**: Cowan shares his experience with restructuring his behavioral patterns as he fights to overcome PTSD and past trauma. By adopting new behaviors like setting healthy boundaries and being open to showing vulnerability, Cowan highlights the struggles and rewards of rewiring his brain for healthier emotional interactions.



2. **Embracing Vulnerability and Its Impact**: The conversation deepens into the significance of being vulnerable as a means of breaking down barriers in personal and professional relationships. Cowan discusses how embracing vulnerability has not only helped reduce his own emotional burdens but has also encouraged more authentic connections with those around him.



3. **Shifts in Coping Mechanisms**: Cowan details his awareness around certain coping mechanisms that were not holistically healthy or effective to adopting healthier practices such as meditation and breathing techniques. This transition has played a crucial role in his daily routine, helping him manage emotions more effectively and bringing about a significant positive impact on his overall mental health.



Throughout the episode, Travis explores these themes with Cowan, offering insights and advice for anyone looking to improve their well-being through a more integrated approach to mental health.

Welcome to another profound episode of The Integrated Man Project. I'm your host, Travis Goodman, and today we're diving deep with a very special guest, Davide Pace. Davide is not just a senior psychology student with a keen focus on men's mental health; he's a visionary dedicated to shaping a new narrative around healthy masculinities.

In this episode, we explore Davide's transformative journey from grappling with negative thoughts and destructive behaviors to leveraging small, positive changes that have made a monumental difference in his life. Together, we tackle the internal strife many men face, battling shame, fear, worry, and self-doubt, and discuss the liberating power of self-awareness and the courage to change.

Davide brings his unique perspective on the dangers and benefits of risk-taking, sharing personal anecdotes and insights. His project for a local high school seeks to redefine masculine norms, while his "Innovating Masculinity" podcast is a testament to his commitment to this cause.

Our conversation goes beyond the individual struggle and looks at the broader context of masculinity today, questioning the toxic tropes and rigid ideologies of figures like Andrew Tate. We argue for integration, curiosity, and collaboration as essential tools for personal and collective growth.

As we conclude, you'll be inspired by Davide's honesty about setbacks, his passion for progress, and the small, yet mighty, steps he's taking toward a kinder, more resilient, and service-oriented life. This is more than just a dialogue; it's a call to action for all of us to assess our own behaviors, learn from our mistakes, and embrace the non-linear journey of self-improvement.

So, tune in, engross yourself in this vital conversation, and maybe find that spark to ignite your own path to becoming a more integrated man. Let's get started.

Welcome back to The Integrated Man Project! I'm your host, Travis Goodman, and in today's episode, we're joined by a very special guest, Luke Entrup, a seasoned coach who's led transformative retreats and rites of passage programs for men and boys for over two decades.

As we shine a light on the crucial conversations about masculinity, consent, and sex education, Luke and I dive deep into how we can teach boys about nervous system regulation and the importance of mentorship and eldership in shaping the journey from childhood to adulthood. We'll explore creating a comfortable space for open discussions regarding changing bodies and sex, especially between fathers and their offspring.

You'll hear about Luke's personal endeavors to foster a healthy rapport with his own children—one that encourages them to turn to him when needed, despite the challenges that individuation might bring. Moreover, we'll examine his approach to discussing sex ed through bedtime stories and how this can facilitate easier conversations at home.

We'll also tackle the significance of rites of passage, the longing for belonging that men face, and how to navigate the emotional landscape of modern masculinity. Along with this, we'll discuss how Luke is rewriting the narrative of what it means to be a man, addressing 'toxic masculinity,' and the importance of being connected to something greater than oneself.

Luke reveals his powerful methodology of bringing fathers and sons into the wilderness to acknowledge the critical transition into manhood. And he doesn't shy away from discussing resistance to these ideas, emphasizing that men who seek out his program are ready for guidance and transformation.

This episode is not just theoretical; it's about taking actionable steps toward healing and reconciliation for past wounds, facing challenges with bravery, and the vital role of community in fostering healthy masculinity.

For those interested in furthering this journey, I'm launching a men's group coaching program, and I invite you to reach out for more details.

So sit back, tune in, and get ready for an insightful conversation that could very well reshape your understanding of what it means to be a man in today's world. Let's get into it!

***WARNING THIS EPISODE DISCUSSES SUICIDE***

In the compelling episode 'Transforming Pain into Progress: The Case for Holistic Care' of The Integrated Man Project podcast, host Travis Goodman engages with guest Sorin Schiller in a deep dive into converting life's adversities into steps toward personal growth. Schiller shares his resonant life story from foster child and troubled youth involved in crime to a beacon of hope as a 'professional best friend.' His unique approach to healing emphasizes holistic care - prioritizing nutrition, exercise, and sleep to foster an environment where vulnerability is welcomed, and real change can begin. 

The conversation explores the necessity of creating challenges to incite action, the significance of human connections, and the interplay between stress, dopamine, and positive transformation. Schiller's philosophy isn't just about managing symptoms but deeply understands the importance of giving people agency in their journey of recovery, especially in the context of PTSD therapy. Economic realities and the structural biases in current health systems against comprehensive care approaches are critically examined. 

Travis and Sorin emphasize the importance of hope, gratitude, and community in mental health and highlight the effectiveness of personalized care over profit-driven models. Sorin, who operates under @scisavage [https://www.instagram.com/scisavage/] on social media, radiates authenticity and stresses the need for tangible action in both the mental health industry and personal healing journeys. Listeners are left with a sense of optimism and a call to embrace life's struggles as opportunities for profound self-discovery and self-improvement.

Joining us is the insightful Nate Feathers, a father of five, soon to be six, who is here to offer a deep dive into the nuanced world of fatherhood. Nate opens up about the complex challenges of parenting—from managing our kids' exposure to inappropriate content to the profound influence of the need for fatherly approval on our parenting styles.

In this episode, we'll navigate the often turbulent waters of addressing sensitive topics with our children and the importance of patience, humility, and understanding when it comes to teaching and guiding the next generation.

Nate reflects on his own journey, admitting past mistakes, and the powerful role of repetition, support from his wife, and self-improvement in crafting a better approach to fatherhood.

Furthermore, we'll explore the dynamics of male mentorship in parenting, the pressures of societal and familial narratives, and the pivotal moments that urge us to seek guidance and challenge our beliefs.

Ready to have your perspectives challenged? Stay tuned as we discuss the significant turning points in Nate's life, the impact of social media, and how letting go of ego can lead to meaningful change.
