#108 (part 1) You can’t escape your shadow, & the right way to set boundaries w/ Connor Beaton

Connor Beaton speaks from the heart, believing that people shift when they’re presented with stories, not statistical data. He has shared the stage with the likes of Gary Vaynerchuk & Lewis Howes, delivered talks for Apple and TEDx.

He has a no-BS attitude coupled with compassionate understanding of our own human limitations.

In 2014, he founded ManTalks, a community for men looking to expand and deepen their sense of self-awareness.

If you’re ready and willing to go deep, smash through your challenges, and be held accountable for unleashing the hidden potential within you, then this guy may just be the coach for you...There’s a reason they call him the “Bullshit Pressure Washer”.
