    Your Self-Worth Won’t Let You Change - Until You Do This

    I break down why self-worth isn’t a motivation problem and why trying to “think” your way into confidence rarely works. I explain how your identity is built from predictable behavioral patterns and how your nervous system resists change that feels unfamiliar or threatening. We dive into the biology behind self-worth, including dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine, and how they shape drive, discipline, and resilience. Finally, I lay out practical steps you can use to rebuild self-worth through action, repetition, and new patterns.

    I sit down with Mark Walsh for a wide-ranging and unfiltered conversation about the collapse of meaning in modern life and how it is impacting men in particular.

    The Masculinity of Tyler Durden and Fight Club

    I break down Tyler Durden as a psychological and masculine archetype, not as a role model, but as a warning signal. I explore why Fight Club still resonates with men today, what Tyler gets right about masculinity, and where his version of power goes off the rails. This is a conversation about repression, shadow integration, discipline, and why unintegrated strength turns destructive. The goal is not to become Tyler Durden, but to understand what he represents and integrate it responsibly.
