ABOUT THIS EPISODE
For years, I believed my power came from controlling my state—pushing through pain, suppressing grief, and forcing myself back into certainty, focus, and action.
But I’m beginning to understand that my next level of power isn’t coming from more force.
It’s coming from integration.
In this episode, I talk about:
-
Why strong men fragment themselves just to keep functioning
-
The hidden cost of suppressing grief, pain, and disappointment
-
Using your strength to feel everything instead of holding everything down
-
Why self-care is an expression of self-respect
-
Learning to experience grief and joy at the same time
-
The difference between holding yourself together and becoming whole
-
Why your next level of success may require a different version of you
-
Moving from force and performance into alignment and authenticity
-
The moment I realized I could be happy because grief was present
-
Why becoming integrated makes more of your power available
Your next level may not come from working harder, controlling yourself better, or eliminating everything you feel.
It may come from no longer being divided against yourself.
