    191: Dark Motivation Works … But It Causes a Mid-Life Crisis (Try This Instead) with Connor Beaton from ManTalks

    Do you ever feel like you're just wandering through life without a purpose … or like you're in the midst of a mid-life crisis?   These experiences start hitting you between your mid 30s to late 40s - and they bring up a bunch of difficult emotions.    But here's the good news:   I invited Connor Beaton of ManTalks back onto the show to share a few tricks to reframe your mid-life crisis (and turn it into a positive transformation). He reveals why fueling yourself with Dark Motivation (from internal shame) leads to a crisis in your 30s or 40s. And he also explains why running on shame-based motivation for too long is a recipe for depression.  If you're feeling off, without a true purpose in life, are in the middle of significant life changes, or feeling a depressive bug lately and you can't explain why, Connor gives you the step-by-step playbook to conquer these feelings and get closer to your true self.    Here's what Connor and I discuss:    How Dark Motivation works in the short-term (and comes with a hefty cost not worth paying over the long-term) How stepping into the unknown frees you from the shackles of your rational mind and lets you step into the wisdom of your body  Why your refusal to let certain things go is the #1 thing keeping you stuck (and how it's creating stress and disease in your body)    Other highlights include:    Why do so many men struggle with therapy and is there a more effective strategy for us? (6:47)  Do you feel like you're just wandering through life without a purpose? Here are a few reasons behind why so many men feel like this (9:55)  How men twist and contort to themselves to please other people without realizing it (and how to feel more comfortable in your own skin) (22:29)  The "Dark Motivation" trap that fuels some level of success and then causes a full-blown mid-life crisis (29:53)  How celebrating yourself, recognizing yourself, and validating yourself can save you from the brink of Dark Motivation-induced depression (31:22)  A simple mindset shift that reframes your midlife crisis as a positive and healthy evolution of your true self (35:33)  The scary way we let the stock market influence our beliefs about ourselves (even if you have nothing invested into the market) (39:19)  3 basic principles (that sound too simple to be true) to choose your own Odyssey and become the man you've always wanted to be (46:56)    How to listen (and then trust) your own intuition (51:45)    Resources mentioned in this episode:   1.

    190: Fitness After 40: How To Start When You've Never Exercised (The Man Flow Yoga Catalyst Effect) w/ Bobby B. (Member Interview)

    Bobby B. (Man Flow Yoga Member and today's guest) went his first 40 years without exercising.    He wasn't an athlete.  He didn't come from a particularly healthy or active family.  And to tell the truth, he frankly had other areas of his life that deserved more of his attention than working out.    But then he turned 40, saw the black balloons and ominous tidings in Spencer's, and then went to have some blood work.   While his health wasn't in critical condition, his doctor noticed a few risk factors that shouldn't be ignored. And so, his doctor gave him three choices:   Get on medications (something that Bobby didn't want to do), get a CT scan to get a clearer picture of his health risks, or try to improve his markers with a little D&E (diet and exercise).    Bobby chose the latter, found Man Flow Yoga, and used it as a catalyst for becoming healthier in nearly every aspect of his health and fitness. Yes, even after age 40.    If you need an extra dose of motivation, this episode is for you.   Here's what Bobby and I discuss:    How a life-changing hiking trip in Japan made Bobby even more dedicated to fitness than his doctor did  Why it's never too late to take your first step on your fitness journey (and how to do it without giving up a couple of weeks in)  The Man Flow Yoga Catalyst Effect that Bobby (and thousands of our Members have experienced)    And more, including…    How Bobby feels younger today at 42 years old than he felt when he originally turned 40 (6:23)  How to decide to become invested in your fitness (even if you went your first 40 years - or more - of life without exercising at all) (12:24)  Why "liquid sugar" is probably the worst beverage to drink if you're interested in feeling better, looking leaner, and getting healthier (Bobby dropped 30 pounds by just cutting out liquid sugar) (15:43)  Bobby's doctor gave him the choice of medications, a CT scan, or diet and exercise when his blood pressure and cholesterol were in bad shape. Here's how he used diet and exercise to lower his health risk (19:31)   How to conquer mental roadblocks that are stopping you from working out (22:32)  The single most effective way to exercise when you have a bad case of gym anxiety (23:32)  How Man Flow Yoga turned Bobby into a morning person (25:24)   The hiking trip in Japan that gave Bobby his why: How hiking up stairs (taking 42,000 steps or walking 19 miles) made him realize that fitness is necessary if you want to do cool shit (27:59)  The Man Flow Yoga Catalyst Effect: How it inspired Bobby to lift weights (even though he has significant gym anxiety) (32:41)  Here's a physical therapist confirming that joints can be loud as long as they don't hurt! (38:48)  How Bobby conquered his significant gym anxiety for good (and why he thought he was silly after overcoming it) (43:13)    Resources mentioned in this episode: 1.

    189: Gut Health Goes Way Deeper Than Weight Loss with Ben Brown (Founder of Body Systems Coaching and Head Nutrition & Fitness Coach)

    If you were born in the 80s, then you might be at a higher risk for gut dysfunction than the average person.    Today's guest, Ben Brown (founder of Body Systems Coaching and Head Nutrition & Fitness Coach of 20+ years) learned this the hard way:   He was plagued by gut issues throughout his teens, but never realized the significance of gut issues until much later. As he went about undoing the damage he had accidentally done to his gut health, he started realizing that his energy came back online, his immunity strengthened, and his mood improved.    Today, Ben coaches men over 40 look at their body holistically to reach their weight loss, health, and fitness goals. And with over 20 years experience being a nutrition and fitness coach, he's a wealth of knowledge when it comes to gut health, the implications your gut has on your overall health, and the steps you must take to reach any goal you have.    Here's what Ben and I discuss:    Why so many people overlook the importance of gut health (and some simple, low-friction ways to restore function to your gut)  The role pain plays in creating lasting, internal motivation  How building a new identity that's aligned with your fitness goals keeps you accountable when discipline and motivation dip    And more, including…    Why do digestive issues plague so many men (and why do they go completely overlooked for most of your life)? (3:40)  How antacids made Ben's digestive problems worse (5:30)  The strange connection between being born in the 80s and GI distress (6:06)  Why ignoring your gut problems can make you more susceptible to infections, take your mental health down a dark path, and create an unshakeable sense of fatigue that sleep can't fix (10:39)  How to improve your gut health, slowly but surely, over time without spending a small fortune on supplements and lab tests (13:30)  What to do if you're having fewer than two bowel movements per day to start to address any underlying gut dysfunction (17:54)  Which kinds of processed foods are less bad for your gut? Ben shares some tips for making smarter and more informed tradeoffs here: (23:52)  How social media traps you into a more dichotomous way of thinking that keeps you stuck on a yo-yo diet (28:12)  Do you struggle with motivating yourself to get healthy? Here's how one of Ben's clients (who weighs 290 lbs) decided to make a lasting change (35:58)  How to develop a stronger sense of self-kindness (52:36)   Guest Bio:     Resources mentioned in this episode:   1.

    188: Moving From Your Survival Path to Your Soul Path with Caleb Campbell (Former NFL player & West Point graduate)

    If you're an achiever or find that you're endlessly striving for, well, something greater, then you know the path isn't full of clarity.    It certainly wasn't for today's guest, Caleb Campbell. Caleb is a West Point graduate, former Army officer, and former NFL linebacker. But he was always followed by a sense of not being enough.    At first, he turned his sense of not being enough into fuel. This actually worked pretty well: He achieved his dream of making the NFL, becoming the second ever draft pick from West Point, and even being called "America's Athlete" on ESPN after being the first player to serve and play concurrently.    But achieving his dreams didn't fix the disconnection he felt internally.  In fact, it made his emotions leak out in strange and counterproductive ways.    And so, he decided to leave the NFL and become a janitor in a mental health facility in Canada. During the five years he spent getting free therapy there, he made a seismic shift:  He moved from his survival path and instead started walking down his soul path. He argues this is something that every man secretly yearns for, but we don't know how to interpret the signs, especially when the path isn't clear.    If this resonates with you as much as it did for me, you're in for an absolute treat in this episode as Caleb and I discuss:    Why a mid-life crisis is an invitation to a mid-life reinvention  How to sync back into the "original knowing" that your body felt when you were still in the womb (and why this lights up your soul's path)  What to do after realizing that what got you to the point you're at today can't get you to where you want to go (and how to embrace "unstriving" instead)    And more, including…    How to participate with the ongoing energetic evolution of your life (and why your natural instinct to fight against it leads you astray) (2:50)  The weird way being celebrated for your ability to perform or hold it all together slowly but surely sabotages your internal valves (this is what caused Caleb to have a mental breakdown at West Point) (15:33)  Why compartmentalizing your anger and pain to use it as fuel works in the short-term (and how it leaks out as rage over the long-term) (16:47)  A definition of anger that will forever change how you think about it and wield it in your life (21:37)  How a story of not being enough haunts almost every action and behavior that follows (and rewriting the story unlocks control over emotional reactions and outbursts) (24:12)  Why being the second NFL draft pick in the history of West Point and the first to serve and play concurrently only made Caleb feel more broken (28:25)  How Caleb becoming a janitor in a mental health facility in Canada after leaving the NFL moved him from survival and into his soul's path (31:31)  What your sense of fatigue that no amount of sleep can fix is trying to tell you (46:43)  Why all men are secretly longing for a deep belly "Grief Cry" (50:05)  How to use nature to grieve the past selves of yourself that no longer exist (53:33)    Guest Bio:   Once known as "America's Athlete," Caleb Campbell is a West Point graduate, former Army officer, NFL linebacker, and author of Unstriving: 12 Lessons on Authentic Success from a Recovering Overachiever. Caleb knows firsthand what it costs to perform when the pressure is real and the path forward isn't clear. Today he works with leaders and teams navigating the defining challenge of this moment—how to stay at your best when the stakes are high, the uncertainty is relentless, and the margin for error is shrinking. Through his story and a hard-won actionable framework, he helps organizations turn pressure into a competitive edge. Resources mentioned in this episode:   1.

    187: The Ethics & Use Cases of AI with Ted Phaëton

    The topic of AI is unavoidable. The cat is already out of the bag with this piece of technology.    The questions then become:    Can it make you a better man?  Can you use it to get more of your own time back?  Is using AI ethical?    And so, I invited Ted Phaeton, productivity coach and host of the Modern Man Podcast, back onto the show to discuss AI with me.    Here's what Ted and I discuss:    The personal and mundane use cases of AI  Some of the ethical concerns regarding AI and intellectual property  How to reframe your underlying beliefs that makes accepting change harder     And more, including…    How to get AI to help you use your groceries more efficiently (and make weight loss easier than its ever been) (14:00)  2 software tools you probably haven't heard about that can help you learn almost any topic at lightning speed (18:19)  Why AI won't be able to solve your back pain, why it might make it worse, and my personal rule of thumb to be able to tell when AI's hallucinating (22:27)  Here's the dark (but true) reason behind why AI chatbots seem empathetic to you (24:08)  How to use AI to reach your goals faster than you otherwise would (28:23)  Should we be worried about the future of AI? Here are some reasons to be hopeful (33:39)  How using AI tools for the mundane parts of life can give you more free time in your day (45:10)  Don't know what to make of AI? Neither do Ted and I… we discuss some of the grey areas at (54:06)    Guest Bio:   Ted Phaëton is an Emmy Award-winning broadcaster and host of The Modern Man, a top 2% globally ranked podcast dedicated to helping men unlock their full potential.

    186: My Personal Experience with Anxiety

    After an accidental mushroom experience, I experienced a panic attack and realized I've been living with low-grade anxiety for far longer than I realized.    And so, over the past couple of years, I've been on a winding and tumultuous emotional journey. It hasn't always been a linear path of growth either. I'd make some progress, then tumble down. I'd think I'd beaten it, but then it came back.    But the process taught me a lot about myself, about my subconscious beliefs, and what to do when my emotions are overwhelming - both for short-term emergency fixes to get me through the day and long-term strategies to address the root cause of it.    Anyway, I dive into the full details in this episode.    But the reason I turned it into a podcast is because I know a lot of men are going through similar things.    Whether your anxiety influences your decision-making, interrupts your presence, or turns into a full-blown panic attack … or you've pushed down your emotions in exchange for unhealthy (or even healthy) coping strategies, today's show will give you new (and hopefully more effective) ways to think about and approach your emotional health.   Listen now.     Highlights include:    The weird way I used work and productivity to hide myself from my emotions (and how to tell if you're also doing this) (4:58) How stepping out of my head and into my body was the #1 most helpful thing to stopping my frequent panic attacks and low-grade anxiety (9:25)  Why exercising worked better for emergency relief from panic than busy work or mindfulness (12:03) A new way to think about anxiety that reduces some of your fear around it (16:33)  How I came to realize I struggled with anxiety my entire life (and why I went most of my life without realizing it) (17:27)  How to actually get out of your head and into your body (this was particularly tough for me - and I've heard similar things from other guys too) (23:36) Why treating your emotional triggers as gifts empowers you over fear (43:10)    Resources mentioned in this episode:    1.

    185: Mindset, Limiting Beliefs, and Motivation for Men 40+ (with Coach Allan Misner, host of 40+ Fitness Podcast)

    Today's guest, Coach Allan Misner and host of the 40+ Fitness Podcast, almost drove himself to the ER when he was 39 after playing a half of a round of beach volleyball.    His story may even resemble yours:   He prioritized his career over his fitness, over his health, over his family, and over his relationships for years without even noticing.    That half round of volleyball was his wake-up call… but he was still battling a shoddy mindset which threw a wrench in his tires every time he tried to better himself. And so, he rode the fitness rollercoaster for another 8 years until his daughter said something to him that made him take his health and fitness seriously.    And then, at age 47, he did two things you weren't "supposed" to be able to do: He lost 66 pounds of fat and gained 11 pounds of muscle at the same time. He also decided to start the 40+ Fitness Podcast because nothing of the sort existed at the time. (This was back in 2012-2013.)    Anyway, after getting his fitness in order, he decided to help other people over the age of 40 take back control of their health, fitness, and lifestyle.    And you know what?   He realized there were three key ingredients that determine your success regardless of your age or current fitness level: Your mindset, your limiting beliefs, and your motivation.    And so, today's show takes a 40,000 foot view and gives you the strategy for getting fit after 40. We don't talk about any tactics because, as you'll hear, tactics can only work when they're used in support of a successful strategy.    Here's what Allan and I discuss:    Why you must change your approach to fitness after 40 (and how to actually do it)  How fixing your mindset and limiting beliefs will naturally motivate you more than beating yourself up ever could  The most effective way to set fitness boundaries with your family and get them to join you in your mission    And more!   Listen now.     Other highlights include:    How one game of beach volleyball made Allan think he needed to head straight to the ER at only 39 (and how he transformed his fitness in his late 40s) (8:21)  Why one conversation Allan had with his daughter finally forced him to get his fitness in order after riding the "yo-yo rollercoaster" for 8 straight years (9:08)  How one bad workout can "taint" your entire perception of exercise when you're over 40 (even a bodyweight only workout like Allan explains at) (12:04)  Here's exactly what Allen did to lose 66 pounds of fat and tack on 11 pounds of muscle - at the same time! - at age 47 (and why he thinks Man Flow Yoga is better than his strategy was) (14:47)  How to break through the barrier of self-hatred and shame (which can be motivating when you begin, but becomes lethal over time) and find a more positive source of motivation (21:41)  Why the choices you make today will determine how involved you are in your kids' or grandkids' lives 30 years from now (29:12)  A straightforward way to reframe your anxieties and actually enlist the people in your life to help you conquer them (33:10)  How to set boundaries with your fitness and nutrition in a way that lets your family join the fight with you (39:04)  The "Head Straight" secret to simplifying your fitness and aligning every aspect of your life (52:22)  How to create an identity around your new fitness regimen (and why this allows you to stay consistent without even thinking about it) (59:08)  Guest Bio:    Allan Misner is a health and fitness coach who helps people in their 40s, 50s, and 60s get strong, healthy, and capable for the life they actually want to live. He is the host of the 40+ Fitness Podcast, one of the largest and longest-running health and fitness shows for people over 40, and the author of the award-winning book The Wellness Roadmap: A Straightforward Guide to Health and Fitness After 40.

    184: Men Over 50: ED is Your Big, Red Health Flag with Suzanne Noble (Host of Sex Advice for Seniors)

    Here is a downright frightening statistic:    Within five years, men over the age of 50 with untreated erectile dysfunction will suffer a severe health problem like a heart attack or stroke.    ED is the big, glaring red flag that you need to do something about your health. But due to embarrassment, avoiding uncomfortable conversations, and the ease of getting short-term solutions like Viagra, most men never bring it up to their doctors. And so, they never get to the root of the problem, and thus, have a higher risk of premature death.    But you know what?   ED doesn't have to mean the end of your relationship, your sex life, or your life. In fact, it's possible to enhance the quality of all three of these categories even if you have ED, a declining libido, or are over the age of 50.    Especially after you listen to today's episode with Suzanne Noble, London-based sex educator, speaker, and host of the chart topping podcast Sex Advice for Seniors.   As a senior herself, Suzanne shares stories from "the trenches" (both from her personal life and from her professional life helping seniors enjoy more pleasurable sex), reveals the most effective "pleasure multipliers" for men, and gives you simple ways to improve your sex life.    Here's what Suzanne and I discuss:    How men in their 50s, 60s, and 70s can reinvigorate their sex life  Why you cannot afford to ignore your ED (it's a big, glaring red flag that something is "off" with your overall health)  Fun and exciting ways to have more vulnerable conversations with your partner to improve your intimacy, communication, and sex life     And more!   Listen now.     Other highlights include:    Why do so many men over age 50 suffer in silence when it comes to a declining libido? (3:42)  A counterintuitive way that performing worse "downstairs" can actually improve your intimacy and communication with your partner (4:41)  How the "Blue Pill," while it may be a suitable short-term strategy, can actually further disguise more serious health issues that may be threatening your life (10:40)  Most men experience a significant health problem within 5 years of untreated ED: Here's how to prevent suffering the same, sometimes fatal, fate (11:22)  The best type of diet to improve your bedroom performance (15:15)  What do women actually want from men during sex? Suzanne shares her insights at (19:52)  How to gamify your sex life and make talking about your intimate life with your partner easier and more enjoyable with the "Yes-No-Maybe" checklist (21:30) The most important "sex enhancing toy" for men over the age of 50 (27:23)  How to improve your sexual life by figuring out what turns you on and what turns you off in your regular, mundane life (33:36)    Guest Bio:    Suzanne Noble is a London-based sex educator, speaker, and host of the chart topping podcast Sex Advice for Seniors. She is on a mission to challenge outdated narratives around aging, particularly concerning sex, relationships, and intimacy later in life.
