    #179 - Men's Panel - We've Lost The Map Of Masculinity - Soul Revolution

    Download My Top 20 Books Every Man Needs To Read:https://www.menofearth.co.uk/books Mens Work - https://www.menofearth.co.uk We've lost the map of masculinity, and too many men are waiting for someone else to draw a new one. I sit down in front of a live audience at Soul Revolution to work out what being a good man actually asks of us. The panel moves from the fathers and losses that shaped each man to the nice guy trap, healthy anger and the missing rites of passage between boyhood and manhood. Then the audience steps in with the harder questions: how to build this kind of community where you live, how a woman gives a man hard feedback, and how to talk about men's mental health in a family or culture that would rather hide it. In this episode you'll learn: How shame pushes men out of community, and why being seen in a circle brings them back The three layers Giles sees men thrive on: energy, brotherhood and purpose How to speak up when you see something wrong, and why healthy anger can serve justice What sits underneath the nice guy pattern, and the question that keeps men powerless Alex Dudgon is the founder of Soul Revolution, a meditation teacher and a father.IG ▶ https://www.instagram.com/soul.revolution.festival/WEBSITE ▶ https://soulrevolutionfestival.com/ Jordan Johnson is a community builder and men's work facilitator at the heart of several of the UK's conscious community movements.IG ▶ https://www.instagram.com/jordypjohnson/ Giles Denning built the UK's biggest physical fitness show and is now taking men's mental fitness mainstream.IG ▶ https://www.instagram.com/giles_denning/ David Chambers is a dating, relationship and intimacy coach who has been coaching men for over a decade.IG ▶ https://www.instagram.com/theauthenticman_/ ====== CHRIS ====== IG ▶ https://www.instagram.com/the.chris.geisler/WORK WITH ME ▶ https://www.menofearth.co.uk/start-here ====== SUPPORT ====== Support The Podcast ▶ https://www.patreon.com/thechrisgeislerTelegram Community ▶ https://t.me/thechrisgeislerpodcastWhatsapp Community ▶ https://chat.whatsapp.com/EChENkePiUy1Sa1kqbKarP

    #178 - “I Was the F*ck Boy Before I Was Spiritual” - Steve Shiva

    Download My Top 20 Books Every Man Needs To Read: https://www.menofearth.co.uk/books This conversation is about what that mistrust costs us, and what it takes to become a man other people can feel safe around. Steve shares his path from a numb, drug and alcohol fuelled life selling real estate in Mexico to shadow work at the Osho resort in Pune, and why the men he now leads start every retreat by naming their judgments out loud. We go into humour as armour, the nice guy versus the dark masculine, what women's work actually asks of women, and what tantra really is beyond sex. In this episode you'll learn: - Why naming your judgment of another man disarms it, and how to do it - How sarcasm and jokes contract a room, and how to repair it even a year later - Why the core masculine wound is "I'm not good enough" and how separating behaviour from identity loosens it - Why pushing sexuality down makes it come out sideways Steve Shiva is a Masculine Embodiment and Truth Based Relating coach and holistic counsellor with a BSc in Psychology. He has walked the path of tantra since 2008, founded Notorious Hearts and Rites of Passage for Men, and is a cofounder of Temple Village in Ubud, Bali.

A hospital bed, a diagnosis, and nine months of depression. Connor calls it the best thing that ever happened to him, and he's never told the full story until now. Recorded at Wasing Estate post Medicine Festival, Connor shares what happened when heartbreak cracked his reality open, why the hardest part wasn't the episode but having his experience denied, and what it cost him in friendships. We then follow the thread to where it led: meeting his partner, the birth of his son Nalu, and his work now supporting men through the journey to fatherhood. In this episode you'll learn: Why Connor still uses the word psychosis, and what shifted when he saw it through a different lens What it feels like when the people closest to you deny your experience, and how he came to own the harm it caused them Why freedom isn't the absence of responsibility but the choice of it ====== CONNOR OAKAIAH ===== IG ▶ https://www.instagram.com/connoroakaiah/WEBSITE ▶ https://www.journeytofatherhood.org/ ====== CHRIS GEISLER ====== WORK WITH ME ▶ https://chris-geisler.mykajabi.com/start-here ====== SUPPORT ====== Support The Podcast ▶ www.patreon.com/thechrisgeislerPodcast Whatsapp Community ▶ https://t.me/thechrisgeislerpodcast

    #176 - How To Be A Savage Lover - Alex Mischka

    Download My Top 20 Books Every Man Needs To Read: https://chris-geisler.mykajabi.com/books Join Chris’s Online Mens Community: www.menofearth.co.uk/innercircle Alex Mischka went from a chef's kitchen panic attack and a drug fuelled collapse to becoming one of the most direct voices teaching men about grief, sex and the parts of themselves they were taught to suppress. In this conversation Alex traces his path from watching his father die of brain cancer through addiction, debt and a full collapse, into more than a decade of work in tantra, attachment theory, kink and men's embodiment. He and the host go deep into what it means to reclaim the "primal killer" inside a man without losing the heart, why grief has to be felt rather than managed, and what real repair looks like after a rupture, both in relationships and in his own recent mistakes. In this episode you'll learn… The difference between karmic chemistry and sustainable partnership How to repair conflict without using sex to bypass it ====== ALEX MISCHKA ===== IG ▶ https://www.instagram.com/alex_mischka/WEBSITE ▶ https://alexmischka.com/ ====== CHRIS GEISLER ====== WEBSITE ▶ thechrisgeisler.comMENS WORK ▶ www.menofearth.co.ukCOACHING ▶ https://bit.ly/4g17ui6MENS COMMUNITY ▶ www.menofearth.co.uk/innercircle ====== SUPPORT ====== Support The Podcast ▶ www.patreon.com/thechrisgeislerTelegram ▶ https://t.me/thechrisgeislerpodcast

    #175 - Live A Life With Purpose & Truth - BC Serna

    Download My Top 20 Books Every Man Needs To Read: https://chris-geisler.mykajabi.com/books Join Chris’s Online Mens Community: www.menofearth.co.uk/innercircle BC Serna spent 18 years figuring out that most men aren't hiding from the world — they're hiding from a little boy they tried to kill off years ago. In this conversation, BC Serna — coach, speaker, and founder of Traveling Good — opens up about growing up feeling like he "missed a meeting on how to be human," a two-decade spiritual journey that took him through 150+ host families across the globe, and what fatherhood has exposed in him that nothing else could. We get into purpose, prayer, why powerful women trigger insecure men, and what it actually takes to build something from zero. ====== BC ===== IG ▶ https://www.instagram.com/bc_serna/WEBSITE ▶ https://www.bcserna.com/ ====== CHRIS GEISLER ====== WEBSITE ▶ thechrisgeisler.comMENS WORK ▶ www.menofearth.co.ukCOACHING ▶ https://bit.ly/4g17ui6 MENS COMMUNITY ▶ www.menofearth.co.uk/innercircle ====== SUPPORT ====== Support The Podcast ▶ www.patreon.com/thechrisgeislerTelegram ▶ https://t.me/thechrisgeislerpodcast
