Episode #994

Are you coasting through life, thinking things are “fine”—but wondering deep down if there’s more?

You’re not alone.

A lot of men come into our programs thinking they’ve already done the work. Marriage is solid. Business is moving. Life looks good on paper. But something still feels... off. That’s the power of choosing growth when everything seems okay—before it’s not.

In this episode, we take you behind the scenes of the latest Rising event—a next-level experience built for men who’ve already done the foundational work and are now asking, What’s next?

You’ll hear how breakthroughs happened not because of a crisis, but because the guys leaned into the discomfort of growth—even when things were already going well. From coaches stepping up with no ego, to micro-adjustments that unlocked massive shifts, this conversation reveals what’s really possible when you stop settling for “good enough.”

We talk about how real transformation comes from precision, presence, and the courage to go deeper—not just wider. And why waiting until things fall apart is the slowest path to where you really want to go.

If you’ve ever thought, “I’m doing fine, I don’t need that right now,” this episode might just change your mind.

If you’re coasting in your marriage thinking “it’s fine,” that’s exactly when you need to act.

Episode #993

Ever feel like you’ve checked all the boxes—career, family, success—but something still doesn’t feel right?

You’re not alone. And more importantly, you're not broken.

In this episode, Tim Matthews is joined by Gregory “Dynamite” and Derek “The Redwood” for a down-to-earth conversation about what it really means to feel lost as a man. They get honest about the times in their lives when they realized they were completely off track—and what it took to admit it, face it, and find their way forward.

This isn't about having a breakdown. It's about having a breakthrough.

They share what it feels like to build a life that looks great on the outside, but doesn’t feel right on the inside. The pressure to have the answers. The temptation to sedate with work, alcohol, or just staying busy. The fear of admitting you’re not sure who you are anymore.

But they also dive into the shift that happens when you stop fighting that feeling—and start listening to it.

In this episode, you’ll hear how spending time in nature, reconnecting with purpose, and leaning on brotherhood helped each of them move from feeling trapped to truly alive again.

If you’ve ever wondered, “How did I get here?”—this conversation is for you.

Sometimes being lost isn’t a problem. It’s a wake-up call. And it might be exactly what you need to finally find yourself.

Feeling lost in your marriage too? Just like in life, the first step to fixing a relationship is admitting you're not where you want to be. This free training shows you exactly how to get clarity, connection, and that spark back.

It's time to stop drifting and start leading—at home and in life.

Episode #992

Are you doing everything “right” in your marriage—and still watching the connection fade?

In this special revisit episode, we’re bringing back one of our most downloaded conversations that hits hard for a reason. We break down the five subtle but damaging “nice guy” habits that well-intentioned men fall into—habits that quietly kill attraction and connection over time.

From being indecisive… To constantly checking in with her emotions… To overgiving while your own tank runs dry…

These behaviors might feel like love, but they’re often rooted in fear, insecurity, or hidden expectations.

In this episode, you’ll hear why trying to please your wife isn’t the same as leading her… and why true intimacy starts with getting honest about where you’ve been playing small or playing safe.

This one’s for the man who’s tired of walking on eggshells and is ready to show up with purpose, clarity, and strength—without losing his heart in the process.

If you’ve ever said, “I do everything for her, and it’s still not enough,” this revisit is exactly what you need to hear.

Episode #991

What if selling your business doesn’t bring the freedom you expected—but instead leaves you feeling lost?

It happens more than you'd think.

Too many business owners stay in the game too long, clinging to stress, burnout, or an outdated identity because they’re unsure of what’s next. Others rush into an exit thinking it’ll solve everything, only to realize the money didn’t bring clarity—or peace.

In this episode, you'll hear from Gary and Derek—two men who’ve navigated the emotional dynamics of exiting their businesses. One built his company from the ground up and sold it after more than 30 years. The other has gone through four exits and knows what it's like to buy in with the clear intention of getting out.

They talk openly about the warning signs they ignored, the personal toll of hanging on too long, and the surprising relief that came from admitting, “I’m done.” You’ll also hear how The Powerful Man played a crucial role in helping them step into what’s next—with intention, confidence, and clarity.

In this episode, you’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to leave a business well. Not just with a solid deal—but with your marriage, your health, and your purpose intact.

If you’ve been quietly wondering, “Is it time to let go?”... this conversation is your answer.

Episode #990

In this honest, no-fluff episode, Tim, Gary, and Mark open up about something most men never talk about—sexual abuse. They unpack how silence and shame shaped their lives, relationships, and how they saw themselves as men. But this conversation isn’t about staying stuck in the past. It’s about what happens when you finally tell the truth.

You’ll hear how opening up became the turning point—not just for healing, but for building real connection, trust, and confidence again. If you’ve ever felt like there’s a part of your story you can’t share, or if you’re carrying something heavy and silent, this one might hit home.

This is for the guy who needs to know he’s not alone—and that there's a path forward, even if it doesn’t feel like it yet.

Ready to stop carrying it alone? If this episode stirred something in you—if you're tired of hiding, tired of feeling stuck—there’s a next step. Check out this free training that breaks down why so many men feel disconnected in their relationships and how to start rebuilding that trust and connection—starting with yourself. You’re not broken. You just haven’t had the right tools—until now.

Episode #989

Can you stay calm and confident—even when your wife is testing your limits?

We're bringing this one back for a reason. If you've ever found yourself defending, explaining, or reacting in frustration during conflict… this episode is for you. Because how you show up in those moments—especially when your buttons are pushed—is the difference between a marriage that grows and one that keeps falling into the same fight.

In this episode, Doug and Brad break down what it really means to practice "engaged indifference." This isn't about being cold or checked out. It's about being fully present, fully grounded—and totally unshaken by someone else's emotional storm. When you lead this way, you become the lighthouse your wife can count on, no matter how rough the waters get.

They also dig into why being reactive turns your wife into your mother (yep, it happens), how to lead with curiosity instead of control, and how to stop tying your self-worth to your wife’s mood. You’ll hear personal stories, practical tools, and the exact mindset shift that makes deep intimacy—and real leadership—possible again.

Revisit this one. Because showing up as the lighthouse isn’t just about avoiding drama. It’s how you earn trust, spark connection, and lead from a place of strength—even when it’s hard.

Episode #988

What if the reason you're burned out, disconnected, or stuck isn't because you're doing too much—but because you're saying yes to all the wrong things?

Most high-achieving men are secretly overwhelmed. They’ve built successful businesses, provided for their families, and checked all the boxes… yet deep down, something feels off. In this episode, you’ll hear how one man’s struggle to say “no” led to decades of hidden pain, poor decisions, and relationships that never quite fit.

In this episode, you'll hear a raw and powerful conversation between Tim Matthews, Mark Smith, and David Mason as they explore what happens when you stop hiding behind productivity and finally start honoring what you really want. They unpack how unresolved childhood trauma shows up in your “yes,” how saying no can feel dangerous when you were never taught it was safe—and how learning to say “yes” without a “but” can radically shift your business, marriage, and life.

You’ll also hear how David went from working 90-hour weeks to taking 3-day weekends—without losing momentum. And the surprising shift that made his business more successful while he finally felt at peace, connected, and fully alive.

If you’re ready to stop chasing validation and start leading with purpose, this is your episode.

Listen now. Your “yes” might be waiting.

Episode #987

What if the key to stronger connection isn’t about trying harder—but simply remembering who you are?

Fresh off The Rising, Tim Matthews sits down with Mark Smith and Chris Cameron—aka “The Love Power”—to unpack some of the biggest personal breakthroughs that came from shutting out the noise and tuning in to what really matters.

They dive into the messy, beautiful process of self-discovery, and what happens when you finally stop running from your own patterns. You’ll hear how something as simple as saying “I love you” can completely shift a relationship—even in the middle of a heated disagreement.

In this episode, they talk about how knowing yourself can expose hidden triggers, like emotional eating, and how those subtle shifts can create massive change. They reflect on why real connection often gets lost in the day-to-day grind—and how men can reclaim it by owning their truth and leading from love.

This is one of those conversations that reminds you: the work isn’t about being perfect—it’s about being honest. With yourself first. Then with the people who matter most.

Episode #986

You’re trying to move forward. You’ve apologized. You’ve changed. But the past keeps showing up in your marriage like it just happened yesterday. Every time things start to feel good again, she brings up the affair, the betrayal, or whatever broke the trust—and it knocks the wind out of both of you.

In this episode, Doug walks through exactly why that keeps happening and what you can do about it. Not with quick fixes or guilt trips, but with real tools that help her feel safe again. You’ll learn how to create the kind of emotional safety that allows her to finally exhale—and how to stay grounded when the past gets brought up, again.

This isn’t about defending yourself. It’s about leading the relationship forward, even if you're the one who caused the pain. If you're serious about rebuilding connection, this conversation is where you start.

Episode #985

What does it really mean to be present for your kids—not just physically, but emotionally and mentally? And how do you balance that presence with the pressure you put on yourself to be a better man, husband, and leader?

In this episode, one father opens up about the raw and honest journey of leveling up—not just as a dad, but as a man. You’ll hear how stepping into deeper accountability led to a powerful realization: the standards we hold ourselves to can also become silent contracts that impact our relationships.

We dive into what happens when you stop trying to fix others and start leading with understanding. The conversation explores how to break patterns of judgment, how to truly connect with your children (especially daughters), and why being the “lighthouse” for your family sometimes means taking time to recharge your own bulb.

You’ll also hear about the surprising shifts that come from doing men’s work—not just once, but consistently—and how doing this work together brings clarity, confidence, and a deeper connection to purpose.

No fluff. Just real stories from real men doing the work—together.

Episode #984

Do you ever feel like it’s your job to make sure everyone else is happy—your wife, your kids, your team—and somehow, it never quite works? You’re not alone.

In this episode, we dive deep into a common (and exhausting) trap many high-achieving men fall into: trying to take responsibility for other people's emotions. It feels noble at first—like you're being a great husband, father, or leader. But at what cost?

You'll hear personal stories and hard-won lessons about how this pattern often stems from childhood conditioning, religious or cultural expectations, and the desire to create peace and safety. And more importantly, you'll learn what to do about it.

This one's a real conversation—unscripted, honest, and revealing. No fluff. Just the stuff that gets in your way and how to get past it.

Tired of carrying everyone’s happiness but losing your own?

Episode #983

Ever find yourself holding back appreciation from your wife because you’re not feeling seen yourself?

Yeah, I’ve been there too.

In this episode, Andrew and I dive deep into how something as simple as daily gratitude can completely shift your energy—and change the way you show up in your marriage, business, and life. We talk about what happens when you stop looking for what’s missing and start appreciating what’s already there.

This isn’t some fluffy gratitude journal talk. We’re talking about real, practical ways to use gratitude—even when things feel hard. Like when you’re trying to co-parent with your ex. Or when you're waking up at 2 AM with stress. Or when you’re biting your tongue in a tough conversation and trying not to blow up.

You’ll also hear a personal story I’ve never shared before—the moment I snapped out of a downward spiral thanks to a random triathlon on TV and a guy running without legs. It changed everything for me.

In this episode, we unpack how to keep your gratitude practice real (not forced), how it helps you lead better conversations, and why most guys totally overlook the power of being grateful for yourself.

Because the truth is, you can’t lead your family or your business if you’re constantly running on fumes and resentment. Gratitude flips that.

Whether your marriage is struggling or you just want to reconnect with your purpose as a man—this is where you start.

Feel like you've tried everything to fix your marriage—but nothing's landing? You don't need another long talk. You need a new approach.

Episode #982

What happens when you do everything “right” in your marriage… and it still falls apart?

In this episode, Andrew opens up about the painful unraveling of his relationship and how it forced him to face the one person he’d been avoiding—himself. Like a lot of men, he came into the work hoping to fix his marriage. What he ended up doing was far more powerful: he found himself.

This isn’t just a story of divorce. It’s a story of identity, ownership, and the kind of growth most men never allow themselves to experience. Andrew talks openly about the moment he realized his marriage couldn’t be saved—and how that loss became the catalyst for becoming a better man, father, and leader.

In this episode, you’ll hear how suppressing emotions kept him stuck, how real transformation came when he stopped blaming and started owning his part, and how doing “the work” gave him clarity—not just in relationships, but in who he is as a man.

Andrew doesn’t just share his wins—he shares his breaking point, the uncomfortable truths, and the exact shifts that helped him go from reactive to grounded. You’ll also hear why women are so drawn to men who do this work, and how showing up with no agenda is the real game changer in love and leadership.

If you’ve ever felt lost in your role as a husband, father, or businessman—or like you’re succeeding everywhere except at home—this conversation will hit home.

Don’t just listen to this one. Let it challenge you.

Episode #981

Ever found yourself wondering, “Shouldn’t I be further along by now?” You’ve done the work. You’ve read the books. Maybe you’ve even joined a few programs. And yet... there’s still something missing.

In this episode, I sit down with Arthur Magruniti—one of our lead coaches and a guy who’s not just talked about growth, but actually lived it. We have a real, honest conversation about what it actually looks like to keep growing year after year—without burning out or chasing the next shiny thing.

We talk about how most men only think they know what they want—and how the real breakthroughs happen when you realize what you actually need. Whether you’re dealing with struggles in your marriage, stuck in your business, or just feeling disconnected from who you really are, there’s something in here for you.

You’ll also hear why so many guys who’ve already “done the work” keep coming back, and what separates the ones who just consume information from the ones who actually transform.

This isn’t about perfection or chasing some big life overhaul. It’s about getting honest with yourself, taking the next right step, and finding out what’s truly possible when you stop trying to figure it all out alone.

If you’re ready to stop circling the same mountain and finally move forward—this is where you start.

Struggling in your marriage? If the stress is piling up and the connection with your wife is fading, I’ve got something for you.

I want to buy you a copy of my book, A Man’s Guide to Saving Your Marriage Without Talking About It. No fluff. Just real, proven steps to bring back the love and respect.

Episode #980

What do you do when your wife says the words you never thought you’d hear—“I don’t want to be married anymore”?

If you're hearing that now, chances are she's been thinking it for years. This isn’t sudden for her. It’s a breaking point.

In this REVISIT episode, we’re going back to one of the most crucial conversations a married man can have—how to respond when your wife emotionally checks out, or worse, tells you she’s done. This is a moment where most men panic, try to fix things fast, or shut down completely.

But there’s another way.

You’ll learn why women often plan their exit quietly over months or even years, and how your default reactions—defensiveness, excuses, or shutting down—only push her further away. We’ll talk through what creates emotional safety, how to respond calmly without losing your ground, and why your self-care might be the key to getting her back.

This isn’t about manipulating her. It’s about becoming the man who can truly hold space, hear her pain, and give the relationship a fighting chance.

👉 Your wife pulled away—now what? Start by getting real about where your marriage stands. Take the free 2-minute Marriage Scale Assessment to find out what’s really going on—before it’s too late.

Episode #979

At some point, almost every married man asks himself the same question: Did I marry the wrong woman?

Maybe she doesn’t laugh at your jokes anymore. She’s not interested in your stories. She seems distant, disconnected—and truth be told, you’re starting to wonder if life would be easier with someone else.

In this REVISIT episode, we’re bringing back a powerful and timely conversation for any man who feels stuck in a marriage that’s lost its spark.

The truth is, most guys were never taught how to actually make marriage work. We weren’t handed the tools to handle resentment, missed expectations, or emotional distance. So when things start to fall apart, we assume we chose the wrong partner—when in reality, we might just be missing the right approach.

This episode breaks down why those thoughts of doubt creep in, how resentment quietly builds, and what you can do to clean the slate and reconnect. We’ll cover the Triad of Connection—a framework to rebuild emotional safety, get real connection back, and spark the passion you thought was gone for good.

You might not need a new wife. You might just need a new strategy.

Still wondering if she’s the wrong woman—or if something deeper’s going on? Take the free 2-minute Marriage Scale Assessment to get the clarity you need—before it’s too late.

Episode #978

Ever feel like you’ve done everything “right” as a husband and provider—yet your marriage still feels off?

That’s exactly where Matt Euler found himself.

In this REVISIT episode, we bring back a powerful conversation that’s still just as relevant for high-achieving men today. Matt opens up about how chasing business success left him drained, disconnected, and dangerously close to losing his marriage.

This is more than just a success story. It’s a raw look at what happens when men ignore the early signs and keep grinding, hoping everything will somehow fix itself. Spoiler alert: it won’t.

In this episode, you’ll hear how Matt went from burnout and panic attacks to reclaiming his marriage, his health, and his purpose. You’ll learn what changed when he joined The Activation Method—and why he believes The Brotherhood gave him the deep male relationships he didn’t know he was missing.

We’re revisiting this episode because Matt’s story continues to resonate with men who feel alone, overworked, and unsure if they can pull their marriage back together.

If that sounds like you—you’re not alone, and this episode is for you.

Episode #976

In this episode, Tim and Arthur dive into a powerful metaphor that hits home for a lot of men: are you leading like a lighthouse, or grinding yourself down like a tugboat? A tugboat works hard, constantly pushing and pulling, trying to keep everything afloat—whether it's in business, marriage, or life in general. But a lighthouse? It stands firm. It doesn’t chase or convince. It guides.

Too many men fall into the tugboat trap—trying to please everyone, dodging conflict, letting things slide to “keep the peace,” and losing themselves in the process. The result? Burnout, resentment, and relationships that lack real respect. Tim and Arthur get honest about what it looks like to lead from strength instead of stress, and how standards, boundaries, and presence can completely shift the way you show up.

You’ll hear hard-won lessons, relatable stories, and clear, actionable steps you can take right now to stop reacting and start leading. Whether it's setting red lines in your relationship, breaking free from codependency, or reclaiming your own voice—you’ll walk away from this episode with more clarity, more confidence, and a better sense of who you're becoming.

This one’s a wake-up call—with the tools to actually do something about it.

Episode #975

What if the reason your life feels flat isn’t your job, your relationship, or your body—but the fact that you’ve stopped living on your edge?

In this episode, we dive into what it really means to live to your edge—not just physically, but emotionally, sexually, spiritually, and mentally. Tim and Arthur break down why so many men slowly drift into mediocrity without even realizing it, and how that shows up in a distant marriage, a dull business, or just waking up every day feeling a little... gray.

This isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing what actually lights you up—about reconnecting with the part of you that once felt unstoppable, confident, and clear.

You’ll hear practical ways men are challenging themselves daily inside The Powerful Man movement—from cold plunges and fasting to having real conversations and owning their truth in the bedroom and beyond.

In this episode, you’ll learn what’s really on the other side of discomfort—and why leaning into your edge might just be the fastest way to become the man your wife, your kids, and you remember and respect.

Because the guy you used to be? He’s not gone. He’s just waiting for you at the edge.

Feel like your wife barely sees you anymore? Chances are, you’ve pulled back from your edge—and it’s costing you your marriage.

In this revisit episode, we’re bringing back a powerful conversation that struck a chord with a lot of men. It’s all about what to do when your wife starts undermining you in front of your children—something that’s not only painful but can seriously impact your family dynamic if left unchecked.

We’ll get into why this might be happening, the damage it causes, and what to do when your instinct is to either shut down or fire back. You'll hear how to calmly take the lead, have the hard conversations, set boundaries that stick, and uncover the real reason this is happening in the first place.

If you’ve been in this situation—or want to be prepared in case it ever happens—this episode is worth another listen. Because how you respond in these moments matters… a lot.

Let’s revisit the playbook and make sure you’re ready.

Episode #973

Ever wonder what staying stuck is actually costing you—not just financially, but emotionally and mentally?

We’re bringing back this episode because it struck a nerve with so many men. It’s one of those conversations that hits differently the second time around—especially if you’ve been feeling that quiet pull to make a change but haven’t moved yet.

In this episode, we revisit a powerful concept that came out of a conversation with a high-level business consultant who uses a dead-simple method to get results: calculate the real cost of doing nothing. Not hypothetically—actually write it down. And not just for business, but for your marriage, your health, and your sense of purpose.

You’ll hear real-world examples of what men lose by hesitating—relationships, time with their kids, even businesses. And you’ll get a straight-up challenge: write down the five core areas of your life and ask yourself, “What is inaction costing me here?”

This isn’t about guilt. It’s about clarity—and then making moves that matter.

If you’re in a season where you're waiting for the “right time,” this revisit might be exactly what you need to hear today.

Episode #972

Ever made a joke that didn’t land—but didn’t realize until later how deep it cut?

We originally released this episode a while back, but it hit home for so many men that we knew it was worth revisiting. If you’ve ever found yourself thinking, “I’m just joking—what’s the big deal?” this might be the perspective shift you didn’t know you needed.

In this conversation, we get real about the difference between light-hearted teasing and the kind of humor that slowly chips away at trust. We share how even a small joke can come across as criticism, especially when the emotional “bank account” in your relationship is running low.

You’ll hear why your wife might not find your teasing funny, how to read the energy behind your jokes, and what to do when your humor starts creating distance instead of connection.

If laughter really is the best medicine, we need to make sure we’re not using it as a weapon.

Episode #971

What if the very thing driving your success is keeping you from feeling fulfilled?

A lot of high-performing men are caught in the loop of "once I get this... then I’ll finally be happy." Sound familiar? Maybe it's sex, money, business goals, or even just recognition from your wife. But here's the thing: that finish line keeps moving.

In this episode, Tim and Arthur unpack a hard truth—chasing happiness through external validation never ends well. They share real stories from men inside the movement (including one powerful breakthrough around intimacy and fulfillment) and dig into why so many of us resist feeling content, even when we say that’s all we want.

You'll hear how being grateful doesn't mean giving up your edge, why internal validation is a more powerful driver than any goal, and how to make the shift from "pushed by pain" to "pulled by pleasure."

If you're tired of hustling without feeling like you’ve arrived anywhere, this one's for you.

Episode #970

Ever looked around at your life—good income, solid marriage, maybe even some investment wins—and still felt totally disconnected?

You're not alone.

A lot of high-performing men find themselves here. On paper, life checks all the boxes... but something feels off. That quiet frustration grows, and before long, you’re stuck in your head, spinning your wheels, and silently wondering, “Is this it?”

In this episode, Arthur Magoulianiti shares his raw and real journey from engineer to successful property investor to personal growth junkie—only to find himself lost and lacking purpose. He opens up about the internal struggle he faced, the toll it took on his marriage, and the powerful transformation that finally pulled him out of the fog.

You’ll hear:

What “being lost” really feels like (and why logic alone won’t fix it)
Why consuming more books, podcasts, and motivation might be making it worse
The surprising moment Arthur realized how much he had been judging himself
How men unknowingly carry emotional weight that drains them
What actually works when you're ready to reconnect with purpose, power, and passion

In this episode, you’ll learn how the feeling of being "stuck" isn’t a personal flaw—it’s a sign that you’ve outgrown where you are. Arthur’s story and lessons provide a roadmap for any man ready to shift from confusion to clarity, from burnout to energized purpose.

Episode #969

Why do high-achieving men so often feel stuck, numb, or just... off?

They've got the job, the house, the family—and yet inside, it’s like something’s broken.

That’s exactly what we unpack in this episode.

In this episode, Tim Matthews and Arthur Magulianiti pull back the curtain on the Alpha Reset—a powerful in-person experience that’s helped thousands of men stop spinning in their heads and start leading from a place of strength and authenticity.

You’ll hear what really happens behind closed doors during the Reset, and why men say it’s the first time they’ve truly felt alive in years.

We talk masks, emotional suppression, suicidal thoughts, the burden men silently carry, and what it means to stop proving and start leading—from the heart, not just the head.

From emotional breakthroughs to the quiet confidence that returns when a man drops the BS and owns who he is—this is a raw, unfiltered look at the journey so many guys are craving but rarely talk about.

Episode #968

Ever have a song take you back to a moment in your life—instantly?

That’s not just nostalgia. It’s your nervous system responding to sound.

In this episode, I sit down with Levi Goins, the man we call the “ranch wizard” at TPM—but today, we’re tapping into one of his true gifts: the healing power of personalized music.

Levi’s been quietly changing lives behind the scenes using custom music therapy tracks. We’re talking about music that’s actually designed to anchor you into the man you want to be—whether that’s the calm leader walking through your front door or the powerful father fully present with his kids.

We get into how sound affects your emotional state, how to create music that becomes a personal trigger for peace, presence, or energy—and why even guys with zero musical talent (like me) can do this.

This isn’t about learning an instrument. It’s about creating something that sticks with you, wherever you go, and gets you back to your best.

You don’t need a playlist. You need a personal soundtrack.

Episode #967

Ever feel like your body just doesn’t bounce back like it used to?

You’re not alone—and it’s not just about getting older. In this episode, I’m joined once again by Dr. Phil Batterson, PhD in exercise physiology, to talk about something most guys overlook: recovery.

We dive into why your body might feel stiff, tired, or inflamed… even when you’re “doing all the right things.” The truth? Most men are overtraining and under-recovering. And that’s exactly why their results suck.

We break down how to build a fitness routine that actually fits your life, how stress is crushing your gains, and why things like sleep, breathwork, and protein matter way more than your fancy supplements or ice baths.

In this episode, you'll learn what an effective weekly plan looks like for the average high-performing man, why three days a week might be all you need, and how to structure recovery to actually feel better, not worse.

This one’s for the guy who’s grinding in business, trying to be there for his family—and still wants to feel like an athlete without burning out.

You don’t need to do more. You just need to do it smarter.

Episode #966

What if the biggest threat to your health isn’t your diet or your workout routine—but the shape of your cardiovascular system?

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Phil Batterson, a VO₂ Max and cardio health expert, who also happens to be the guy that recently tortured me with a fitness test. And by tortured, I mean he showed me where I was really at.

We dig into what VO₂ Max actually means in plain English—and why it's one of the most powerful predictors of how long you'll live. Seriously.

This isn’t about becoming an elite athlete. It's about being able to chase your kids around the yard, keep up with your wife in bed, and not get winded during pickup basketball.

Dr. Phil shares why most guys are training wrong for their goals, how you can get way better results in way less time, and why individualized testing beats generic workout plans every single time.

In this episode, you'll hear how I got tested, what surprised me most, and what every man should be doing right now to take back control of their health.

You don’t need to be perfect. You just need to know where you are—and start.

Episode #965

Feel like you’re just going through the motions—with no real direction?

If you’re waking up each day wondering, “Is this it?”, you’re not alone. A lot of guys struggle with setting a clear vision for their lives and marriages. And when you don’t have one, you end up drifting... reacting instead of leading.

In this episode, Chris and I talk about why so many men avoid setting a personal and relational vision—and how to actually get started (even if you feel stuck or overwhelmed).

We break it down into a practical process that helps you define what you do want by first identifying what you don’t. From sex to shared goals, from where you live to how you connect—it’s all on the table.

We also share real stories from the Alpha Reset and how just six weeks after setting a vision, one man’s entire life shifted—including his marriage and where he lived.

This isn’t some fluffy “manifest your dream life” stuff—it’s a grounded, actionable approach to leading with clarity and creating the life and relationship you actually want.

You don’t have to figure it out alone. We made this free training for guys who want real change. Start here: thepowerfulman.com/scales

Episode #964

When was the last time you actually had fun with your wife?

Not a “get dinner and talk about the kids” kind of night. Not a “watch TV and pass out on the couch” evening. Actual, flirtatious, playful, can’t-wait-to-get-you-alone kind of fun.

In this episode, Chris and I talk about something we don’t hear enough—fun. Specifically, how a lot of men have traded playfulness for predictability... and how it’s killing the spark in their marriage.

We unpack what it really means to become the Chief Fun Officer (CFO) in your relationship—not just with your kids, but with your wife and especially in the bedroom.

You’ll will get some creative (and hilarious) ideas for dates, flirting, and reigniting bedroom passion that feels more like play than performance.

This isn’t about being silly. It’s about being present and playful—the way you were when your relationship first started. Because when you’re having fun, she gets to feel desired, seen, and safe… and everything changes.

It’s not about working harder—it’s about knowing what to work on. Check out the free video that breaks it all down: thepowerfulman.com/scales

Clarity changes everything—and it starts with this.

Episode #963

What if the fear of rocking the boat is exactly what's sinking your relationship?

Too many men are quietly stuck—avoiding tough conversations, tiptoeing around decisions, and hoping things somehow just…get better. But that hesitation? It’s costing you your peace, your leadership, and the connection you crave with your wife.

In this episode, Chris Hansen and I get real about what’s actually holding men back. We dig into how fear shows up in marriage, how indecision slowly erodes intimacy, and why taking back leadership doesn’t mean being a jerk—it means showing up.

You’ll hear stories from real coaching conversations where men were scared to set boundaries, afraid to commit to change, or just stuck in that familiar “messy middle.” We break down the identity traps, the ego plays, and the excuses that keep men stuck—and what to do instead.

Whether you're feeling stuck in your marriage, your career, or your own head—this one's for you. It's time to stop sitting on the fence and start stepping into the man you know you're capable of being.

Episode #962

When’s the last time your wife gave you that look—the one that says, “I want you”?

If it’s been a minute, you’re not alone. A lot of married guys find themselves in that same spot… and yeah, it probably means your Sexual Market Value (SMV) isn’t where it used to be.

In this episode, Coach Chris and I unpack what SMV actually means for men in long-term relationships. And no, it’s not just about being in shape or dressing sharp. It’s about the way you carry yourself, how much self-respect you have, and whether you’re still showing up like the man she was once drawn to.

We also get into the difference between real confidence and just going through the motions. A lot of men don’t even realize how far they’ve drifted until they either catch a glimpse in the mirror—or hear some hard truth from another man. If you’ve been thinking, “I’m doing everything I should… so why does she seem checked out?”—this conversation might hit close to home.

You’ll hear how to start rebuilding that quiet, steady confidence that naturally draws people in—especially your wife. We’re not talking gimmicks or trying to be someone you’re not. Just simple, real-world actions that help you feel solid in your own skin again. And it all starts with self-respect—not chasing approval.

So if you’ve been feeling kind of invisible at home, and you’re ready to start leading with presence and purpose again—yeah, this one’s for you.

Episode #961

Ever feel like you're tiptoeing around in your own house?

You’re doing everything you can to keep things calm—avoiding conflict, keeping quiet, trying not to rock the boat. But deep down, it’s eating at you. And here's the tough part: that silence? It might be making things worse.

In this episode, I’m talking with Coach Chris Hansen from our Navigate program about something a lot of guys wrestle with—setting and holding boundaries in their relationships. We get into why it's so damn hard, and how avoiding it usually just leads to more resentment, distance, and disconnect at home.

This isn’t some high-level theory talk. We get into real stuff—actual examples of what setting a boundary really looks like, and how to do it without blowing everything up.

We talk about why your wife might not be taking your boundaries seriously—and how to shift that. We also get into the difference between a boundary, a want, and an agreement. (Hint: mixing those up? It causes way more problems than you think.)

One of the biggest takeaways? Most guys are accidentally teaching their wives to ignore them—and it’s not because they’re weak or passive. It's just a pattern they've never noticed. But one honest convo (the kind we usually avoid) can change a lot.

We wrap it up by looking at what actually creates respect and connection—and no, it’s not raising your voice. Vulnerability, done right, changes everything. When you start showing up differently, the whole dynamic starts to shift.

So if you’re sick of feeling like your needs don’t matter, or like you’re always coming in last—this one’s worth a listen. You’ll walk away with some clear tools to start leading your relationship with more clarity, confidence, and calm.

What if you could get it back? The respect. The love. The intimacy. Watch this: thepowerfulman.com/scales

Episode #960

Ever catch yourself staring in the mirror thinking, “This can’t be it… right?” That quiet pull, like there’s gotta be more to life—but you’re not even sure what “more” means anymore?

Yeah. You’re not the only one.

In this episode, we get into what a lot of people call a midlife crisis—but we see it differently. We call it a midlife awakening.

Steve and Mark, two of our Alpha Reset coaches, join me for a real conversation about what it actually looks like to hit that wall… and then move through it. These guys have walked with a lot of men through some serious turning points, and they don’t sugarcoat it.

We dig into:

The silent weight a lot of men carry around without even realizing it
Why reading all the self-help books in the world won’t move the needle unless you’re willing to get uncomfortable
What it means when your “little boy” shows up in your marriage—and why your wife feels it even if you don’t
How most men are chasing a “dream life” they’ve never actually defined
And yeah… we even talk about a guy who had a realization about his own ashes that completely changed where he chose to live—while he was still alive

This one’s not about fixing yourself. It’s about waking up to what’s real—and maybe starting to live like you mean it.

So if you’ve been saying “livin’ the dream” with an eye roll and a tired laugh… might be time to find out what your real dream actually looks like.

Episode #959

Ever feel like you're doing everything “right” but still not getting what you want—from your wife, your business, or even yourself?

In this episode, I sit down with Gary, known in The Powerful Man community as the Gentle Warrior. He opens up about how he went from being the classic “nice guy”—quiet, accommodating, but secretly frustrated—to a man who leads his life with purpose, clarity, and confidence.

This isn’t a story about a perfect turnaround. It’s about doing the real, messy work. Gary gets honest about the anger and shame he didn’t even know he was carrying, how he woke up to the truth of a marriage built on obligation, and why ending it was the most loving thing he could do for them both.

But the most powerful shift? He stopped trying to earn love—and started showing up as a man who already knows his worth. And that’s when everything changed.

We talk about what it’s like to be seen and respected by other men, how community accelerates growth, and why volunteering at the Alpha Reset hit him harder than his own Reset did. You’ll also hear the unexpected way he met the love of his life—when he wasn’t even looking.

In this episode, you’ll get a front-row seat to what it really looks like when a man stops hiding, owns his story, and finally takes the lead—not just in his relationship, but in every area of his life.

Episode #958

What happens when two of our top coaches stop coaching—and step into the Alpha Reset as participants?

That’s exactly what Mike and Neil did.

In this episode, they open up about the resistance that came up before the Reset, what it took to drop the ego, and what it really means to lead from the front—not just for others, but for themselves.

Mike shares the moment he FaceTimed his wife right after it ended. She just stared at him, smiling. “You look different,” she said. “I like this Mike.” That moment? That was the result. Right there.

Neil’s story is quieter—but just as powerful. He didn’t come home and give a big speech. He didn’t have to. His son just felt it. The calm. The shift. The safety. No words needed.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

What it looks like when high-level coaches stop leading and start doing the deeper work
Why emotional safety is a game-changer—for your marriage and your kids
The real reason so many men blame their wives (hint: it’s not about her)
How showing up differently creates a ripple effect across your entire home

Episode #967

What happens when a man hits his limit... and decides not to fold?

In this episode, I sit down with Eric and Weston—two guys who went through the Alpha Reset and came out the other side different men. Now? They’re giving back and helping other men do the same.

We get into what brought them to The Powerful Man, how their marriages shifted, and what they really discovered about themselves along the way.

Weston opens up about how hard it was to actually connect with his wife—even though the love was there. And Eric? He was ready to walk away from 25 years of marriage, hoping a new car or a bigger paycheck would fix the emptiness. (Spoiler: it didn’t.)

Here’s what you’ll hear in this one:

What finally got these guys to stop pretending everything was fine
The internal tug-of-war a lot of Christian men feel in marriage
Why being truly seen by other men changes everything
What it’s like to walk into a Reset one guy... and leave someone else entirely
How volunteering after the Reset brought even more clarity and growth

Truth is, most men are silently struggling, thinking they're alone. They’re not.

This episode dives into what happens when you drop the guilt, shame, and anger—and finally lead from a place of honesty and strength. You’ll see why so many men say the Alpha Reset was the turning point. Not just for them, but for everything.

Why do so many men struggle in silence when it comes to mental health? And more importantly, what can we do about it?

In this episode, I sit down with Sean Stiller, a psychotherapist with over 16 years of experience, to tackle the tough conversations around suicide, depression, and hopelessness—topics that impact more men than we often realize. Sean breaks down the common misconceptions surrounding mental health, the warning signs to watch for, and, most importantly, how to shift from feeling hopeless to finding real hope.

We also dive into: ✔️ Why high-achieving men often struggle with depression ✔️ How our beliefs and identity can unknowingly trap us in pain ✔️ The subtle (but powerful) mindset shift that changes everything ✔️ Practical steps to help yourself—or someone you love—through dark times

We’ll talk about how to clear the past so old arguments stop coming up, how to communicate in a way that actually lands, and how to stay grounded when things get tough.

Why is it so hard for men to express their emotions in relationships?

In this episode, I sit down with Chris to tackle the challenge of male vulnerability and emotional connection. We dive into real questions from men struggling to open up, rebuild trust, and navigate past mistakes without losing their sense of masculinity.

We explore why society conditions men to suppress their emotions and how to break free from that pattern. You'll hear about a powerful way to reconnect with your emotions that doesn’t make you feel weak.

In this revisit episode, Doug Holt and Brad Holt dive deep into why so many high-achieving men struggle—not just in marriage, but in life. They reveal how the same tools that restore relationships also transform businesses, health, and personal fulfillment.

Episode #699

What are the two main reasons why relationships break down?

The main two reasons why relationships break down are unmet expectations and thwarted communication. Unmet expectations occur when there is a mismatch between what one person expects from the relationship and what the other person is willing or able to give. This can lead to resentment, anger, and eventually, the end of the relationship. Thwarted communication occurs when one or both partners are unable or unwilling to communicate their needs and wants to each other. This can lead to misunderstandings, hurt feelings, and a lack of trust.

On the other hand, relationships succeed when there are clear expectations that are usually met and open lines of communication. This means that both partners know what the other person expects from the relationship and are able to communicate their needs and wants in a clear and honest way. This allows for conflict resolution and helps to keep the relationship strong.

In this episode, you'll learn about the two main reasons why relationships break down and how to improve communication in your relationships.

If you find yourself feeling uncomfortable with your wife's behavior or the actions of other men, it's important to distinguish whether it's rooted in jealousy or if it poses a threat to the well-being of your relationship.

Have you ever felt the need for more spontaneity and adventure in your life?

In the world of business, it is not uncommon for owners and entrepreneurs to become consumed by the principles of rigidity and discipline. With the constant demands of running a company and the need to adhere to strict strategies and timelines, spontaneity often takes a backseat.

Why do some men never launch their big ideas? What keeps a man from acting on them?

We have our sense of identity...of who we are. A lot of times, we create a fantasy of this big idea, and we start to live in this fantasy world. The scary part is what we fear will happen to our identity if we launch that idea and it fails. Does that make you a failure?

The more grounded you are as a Powerful Man, the easier it is to go after the fantasy. When you're grounded, that fantasy gets attracted to you. When you're an Activated Man, all the territories are attracted to you.

Self-worth and self-image are tied tightly together. If your self-worth is high, then your sense of identity is solid - you aren't going to worry so much about how people think of you and how you think of yourself.

In this episode, we're going to talk about the real reason why men never launched their big ideas, the importance of self-worth and self-image, and the things you need to focus on when your situation is at its worst.

When was the last time you looked at the stars or walked in the park?

When is the last time you did something for yourself?

Guys often feel guilty when they take the time to fill their cups. They don't acknowledge the fact that letting themselves become empty makes them weak, and that's why they don't see the need for it.

It would help if you first honored the truth that you're weak and empty, and then do something about it. Fill your cup. Find opportunities to improve yourself, start simple.

Go out and have some fun. Make an effort for the most important person in your life...yourself. If you do this often, everything from money to relationships becomes easier. Most importantly, you can bring your best self to every interaction you have.

In this episode, let's reflect on ourselves. If you haven't done something for yourself in a few months, or years already, NOW is the time to give yourself a reward.

Episode #569

What makes a great leader in business AND at home?

A great leader is a person that is always in the front drawing their team to where they are going to and inspiring others through their action and their communication. The first step to becoming a great leader is to take inventory of yourself.

The best way to do this is to have smart people around you give you honest feedback. You need to understand where you are succeeding and where you are failing both as an individual and a leader. Once you have that feedback, you then get to take massive action and be the inspired leader that you know you can be.

You get to take care of yourself and put yourself first.

When you are sacrificing yourself for others, that will put a lot of pressure on your life.

The secret to being a great leader is to be a great self-leader first.

How can you break the barriers that have been holding you back?

How often do we take the time to work on our unconscious brain?

There are things that we are unconsciously committed to that we're not even aware of - yet it's why certain patterns keep replaying in your life. This is the "emergency brake" that keeps you from achieving your goals, dreams, and desires.

Figure out what it is that you are complaining about. Pick one of the Five Territories and choose a scenario you complain about the most.

All that complaining is a symptom - it means you are unconsciously committed to the results that you are getting. Stop complaining about it and figure out why you are unconsciously committed to it.

Remember: Energy flows where attention goes.

Episode #648

Do you feel like your wife lost her trust in you?

This is a common problem for most men.

They end up feeling confused because in their mind they are a good husband. Not cheating. Doing what they’re told “good husbands” do. Going to work and providing for the family.

How can a wife lose her trust in her husband when he is doing all of these things?

Well, it is really simple.

Ask yourself this…how many times did you say you’re going to be there on your special occasion, or that you’re going to pick up the kids from school, or that you’re coming home for dinner, and then for whatever reason…you didn’t do it?

Did a few (or many) times come to mind?

These may seem like little things to you that don’t matter in the scheme of life, but these pile up over time and end up chipping away at the trust she has in you.

And the sad thing is, this one thing has killed a ton of relationships.

If this feels familiar to you and you want to prevent this from happening, be the man of your word. Talk to your wife about it. Stop promising and start acting.

Episode #647

When you see a gap in yourself, you work to address it on your path to becoming a better man, right? So why do you hold back from calling out the gaps you see in others?

People fear that they're going to be rejected for pointing out what's going on. If we are a team and we are committed to achieving a goal together, then if we don't call out the gaps that we see in someone else, we're sacrificing our own progress - because as a team we all achieve that one goal together.

A lot of people want to be accepted because they feel that it's safer. Wanting to be liked, accepted, and wanting others to enjoy our company prevents us from stepping in and leading. As a leader, you need to call out the gaps. You have to bear the risk of people not accepting you - so that you can the right thing for yourself and the team.

In this episode, we talk about core values - how to call out the gaps, why people hold back from doing this, how to stop the cycle, and how to lead properly and powerfully.

Opening the year right isn't an easy task, especially, if you're starting it with low self-confidence.

So, how can you keep your confidence high when the things you're expecting don't seem to fall into place?

Remember this...

Things may be going against you but if you're still being congruent with who you are, regardless of what's going on outside, you can keep your confidence high.

One tip that we suggest is to have someone around that will support you. Sometimes you need to borrow confidence from someone who believes in you. Make it a priority to surround yourself with people that have confidence in you.

And most importantly...always think about who you REALLY are and act in alignment with that.

One of the biggest positive shifts that can happen in a business is when its leaders commit to personal accountability. When leaders hold themselves to the highest standard, it naturally follows that they inspire everyone around them to that same height.

By the same token, when your business isn't going well, that's often a reflection of what is going on for you. It is a reflection of how you live your life.

It goes both ways. Look at the biggest complaints that you have in your business and in your relationship. Look at all Five Territories. You'll see that your complaints have a lot in common.

Your staff, their attitudes, and the work environment are ultimately a direct reflection of you.

How do you keep the sexual chemistry and the spark alive in your relationship through the years?

One of the things women are fond of us men for is our sense of humor. But over time, when we receive rejections from our wives after teasing them, there will come to a point when we deactivate our sense of humor. We stop teasing and making jokes.

We become afraid of rejection and become timid. We become attached to the negative outcome, thus lowering our confidence when dealing with our wives.

One way to overcome it is to be playfully mean. Start joking with your wife and laugh at it even if your wife won't give the reaction you're expecting.

Be confident with your approach. Be the Alpha once again.

In this episode, learn how you can bring back the excitement in your marriage, reactivate your sense of humor, and win your wife back.

Episode #612

Does your wife hate you?

How can you turn that look of hate and disgust into a look of admiration, respect, and desire?

When a woman says that she hates her husband, what she is saying is she hates the version of her husband that's showing up. She doesn't hate the guy himself, she just doesn't like the person he's showing her. She doesn't hate you, but she's sick and tired of who you've let yourself become - this lesser version of yourself.

A lot of men lose their dreams, desires, energy, and the bravado that they had along the way. Things start to slide - they start doing less and drinking more, and the fire within them starts to die. Over time, his wife will start to do the same thing. And she'll resent that within herself.

A lot of guys will try to gain back their wife's love and respect by doing good things...by being a good guy, and by being a good husband. However, they're usually doing this strictly for validation - which makes them an even lesser version of themselves. Thus, she loses even more respect - and she hates him for that.

In this episode, we're talking about some of the causes of divorce, why your wife might hate you, and what you can do when you find yourself in this kind of situation.

Are the complaints you have the same as the ones you had last year, or 2 years ago?

Where are we?

Until we get honest with ourselves, we're not going anywhere.

Change should start within you. It starts with being honest about where you are currently. Take an assessment to see if you're repeating mistakes of the past.

Shame is the biggest issue. You are hiding from your wife because you feel shameful about the behavior, and that can lead to a lot of problems. It will show up in your marriage, your work, and how you perform in every part of your life.

There are things that you don't want her to find out because you are worried about the reaction she's gonna give you. It happens to a lot of guys...but be open. It's part of the relationship.

Before you realize what's happening, you've become a needy man...and that is not a good place to be. Nobody wants to be there.

It doesn't feel good to carry around a lie. It feels heavy. It's truly easier to reach out to your wife rather than lie and hide from her. Just come clean. It can be scary at first but it will feel great. You will feel so much better after.

Episode #576

When you're looking to make a big change in your life, one of the easiest traps to fall into is to use your individuality as an excuse:

"Sure, that may have worked for you, but I'm different..."

So, how do you stop making those excuses?

Everybody's situation and background are different. But you all have one thing in common - You want to be a better man.

What happens to us when we get envious?

What happens when envy disappears?

When we start getting envious, we start making up stories. Subconsciously, our brain tells us that "we can't have this" and "we can't achieve that".

Envy stops you in your tracks - preventing you from getting the income, body, or relationship that you want. Envy stands in your way and blocks you from achieving your goals.

Instead of engaging in envy, try something different:

Applaud!

Train and program your brain to work that way, too. Something magical happens when you start genuinely congratulating someone on their achievements - you take a piece of that accomplishment for yourself.

When you congratulate and applaud, you get to share in the joy that person feels when they've achieved something. It's abundance - and it's a great place to be.

In this episode, we are going to talk about what happens to us when we get envious, and how to stop being envious and start participating in abundance.

However, if we really think that we have done something wrong, we tend to do everything we could and lower ourselves just to make it up to her.

This is not healthy.

One thing you could do is explain to her why you've gotten angry in the first place. Tell her how did you feel and in return, ask for her side of things. In this way, both of you can learn from each other's shoes and will be more mature when conflicts arise in the future.

Listen to this episode and learn more from Doug Holt and Ryan Peach and stop your old ways of apologizing.

Episode #529

In a conventional design, men are supposed to be the provider - the one who puts in the work, hustles, and brings home the money.

Women are designed to be at home, do the chores, clean the dishes, clean the whole house, wash the clothes, and take care of the children.

But is your wife actually feeling alone at home?

Her having to face all the stresses alone at home might trigger her to leave you.

It's important to explore the fact that men and women interpret things differently.

So, be aware and look at how things are done in your house and how your wife is really feeling about it.

When a woman is looking for an exit to the relationship, one of the biggest complaints is feeling alone at home and abandoned.

In this episode, we are going to talk about how to recognize your wife's needs and stepping up into the things you get to do at home.

When was the last time you did something most women would classify as romantic?

What would you do if you were trying to win your woman back?

Are you a man of your word?

Let that question sink in...

Many men we talk to lead a similar lifestyle where they have made work their number 1 priority.

And yet, they are coming home late, feeling a disconnect with their wife and kids, and are slowly becoming men who those around them can no longer rely on.

They say they will show up for their family's events and yet more often than not they don't stick to their word.

There always seems to be a meeting, a client, or a deadline that appears, forcing them to let down those around them once again.

The time to change that narrative and become a man of integrity is now.

Take a moment to hit play while we dive deep into why we do this and the importance of showing up when we say we will.

Episode #514

Every relationship book, podcast, or video you consume tells you communication is key. That to get through your problems with your partner...you have to talk about it. But every time you try to talk to her, it seems like you end up arguing.

The good news is....there is another way.

When we have problems in the relationship, talking about it sometimes will just make the situation even worse. As a man, we feel that it is an attack on our capabilities to provide and as a man.

It is difficult for us to communicate and talk about it because we don't understand what's going on inside us.

Get out of that situation by focusing on building the connection first with yourself so that you will be able to build a connection with your wife.

You should reset and reclaim. Know yourself, and understand what's going on inside you so that it will be easier to understand what your partner really needs from you.

Have fun with yourself so that you will be able to have fun with your partner. Build a deeper connection with yourself and your wife and as a result, communication will become a lot easier.

In this episode you will learn:

The alternative to "talking through" your problems with your partner.

What makes a great leader in business AND at home?

A great leader is a person that is always in the front drawing their team to where they are going to and inspiring others through their action and their communication.

The first step to becoming a great leader is to take inventory of yourself.

The best way to do this is to have smart people around you give you honest feedback. You need to understand where you are succeeding and where you are failing both as an individual and a leader. Once you have that feedback, you then get to take massive action and be the inspired leader that you know you can be.

You get to take care of yourself and put yourself first.

When you are sacrificing yourself for others, that will put a lot of pressure on your life.

Something we hear men complain about often at The Powerful Man is that they believe their wives have no sex drive.

At the beginning of their relationship, things were hot and heavy. But after getting married, the frequency and passion of the sex they're having has consistently declined. These men just assume that their wife has lost her sex drive.

This is not true.

How do you make her desire, admire and respect you?

How will the program help you to flip a sexless marriage back to the heat you remember?

A lot of us have been in this kind of situation: your marriage has become sexless - no intimacy, just anger...and fighting. You've become roommates with your wife, also known as Roommates With a Ring Syndrome.

Give her the space to be emotional and be who she is and still love her and remain grounded on who she is. Stay as the man she fell in love with from the beginning. Make her feel she can be herself around you.

Men don't want just sex - men want intimacy, connection, and respect. And they want admiration and respect to happen naturally.

In this episode, we touch on the Inner Circle, and how to deal with a sexless marriage. We go into how the program helps you to make her desire, admire and respect you - and how to show up as a Powerful Man to your spouse.

How to get past self-sabotaging behavior?

How to become your real and better version of yourself?

For a lot of men in their mid-30s and 40s they let go of themselves a little bit, they start joining a gym and everything but as they start to make progress, it's like they get one step forward and then two steps back.

As you take your journey into parenthood and being a partner needs a lot of energy and a lot of work to do it successfully. It requires a lot of attention and a lot of emotion. And if you also have a business, you start to struggle then you start to put yourself last. If you don't give yourself what you need, you are not giving yourself everything that you need to be your best self, how can you be all these other things? It really has to start within yourself.

It's always gonna be you versus you. Your worst enemy is yourself. If you are learning about yourself ask yourself why there are things that don't work in the past and how can it work in the future, and if you don't know the answer then you need to seek help.

In this episode, we are going to talk about Shaun Zetlin's journey, who he is, how to get past this self-sabotaging behavior that we get, the importance of taking care of yourself, how to become your best self, how to perform at a high level and how to use fitness as an emotional tool to reset men's batteries.

Episode #388

What does life look like after a divorce?

The activated male is a natural alpha leader. A lot of men are coming to the Activation Method to save their marriage - or at least make their marriage better.

For men who haven't gone through the program and find themselves in the middle of a divorce, they feel very caught off guard. They're stressed out because they don't know what to do. They lost themselves along the way and the fire and burning desire that was once inside them has dissipated.

What happens to these guys who go through a divorce is it takes them a long time to get back on the horse.

Dating will not be easy for them.

Their behavior becomes self-destructive.

They are trapped at a level of stress, loneliness, and depression that is unsustainable - and the only way that they can find even the illusion of solace is by sharing their victimhood.

In this episode, we are going to talk about what life can look like after divorce, the differences between the two viewpoints on the path of divorce, how to be a 'rare catch' in the marketplace, and how to step into becoming a Powerful Man.

Episode #387

Does your wife hate you?

How can you turn that look of hate and disgust into a look of admiration, respect, and desire?

When a woman says that she hates her husband, what she is saying is she hates the version of her husband that's showing up. She doesn't hate the guy himself, she just doesn't like the person he's showing her. She doesn't hate you, but she's sick and tired of who you've let yourself become - this lesser version of yourself.

A lot of men lose their dreams, desires, energy, and the bravado that they had along the way. Things start to slide - they start doing less, drinking more, and the fire within them starts to die. Over time, his wife will start to do the same thing. And she'll resent that within herself.

A lot of guys will try to gain back their wife's love and respect by doing good things...by being a good guy, and by being a good husband. However, they're usually doing this strictly for validation - which makes them an even lesser version of themselves. Thus, she loses even more respect - and she hates him for that.

In this episode, we're talking about some of the causes of divorce, why your wife might hate you, and what you can do when you find yourself in this kind of situation.

Episode #386

How can you stop seeking validation? What can we do as men to break this cycle?

Often, you're telling your wife about all your projects or accomplishments because you want her to validate you. When we go on with this quest for validation, we're giving up our power to our partner. Bu constantly seeking validation from your wife, you become needy, she becomes turned off, and your relationship goes down a dangerous road.

You need to make a big shift and start making changes in yourself. When she starts noticing positive changes - and you're not talking about it all the time - it will be more alluring and sexy to her. Be a better version of yourself and act as if you don't know it.

Not seeking the admiration of the people around makes you more attractive naturally. The signal that we send to our partner is that we are a solid man on a mission. We are on our path and we are unshakeable.

In this episode, we are going to talk about the idea of validation, why we need to stop looking for validation, and what can we do to break this cycle.

Why do men sometimes end up being chumps? How does it happen? And how can you increase your "market value" to keep this from happening to you?

For men to get what they want, they have to do some stuff. Women do this all the time. You start doing things in the house and then you get what you want in return.

When she realizes that she can tantalize you with that, what happens - slowly, at first - is that you're becoming a chump. You will fall from the game. Like a mouse in a maze trying to chase cheese.

This happens to a lot of guys.

Set clear boundaries and talk about them. Figure out what you want to be, and be firm about who you are. Doing things from that perspective, and clarifying what you will tolerate in your standards, changes the game.

In this episode, we are going to talk about how not to become a chump, the reasons why a lot of men end up being a chump, releasing the breaks, and ways to fuel yourself and increase your market value.

Is your wife always running late? And does that make you late?

This is a big trigger for a lot of men. They're always late to things and they always have to make excuses that cause stress, anxiety, shame, and guilt - which causes fights between their wives. Ultimately, guys cave in and surrender to being late - falling into that beta mode.

Recognize that you're upset not because of your wife's routine, or because she's always running late. It's about her making you late or making you wait, which can be a sign of disrespect for a lot of people.

Start laying some ground rules. Set some boundaries. If she violates your boundaries, kindly and firmly send them a message that you are serious about your boundaries.

In this episode, we're talking about how to deal with your wife always being late and understanding what the real trigger is. We get into how to make yourself calmer when this happens, how to set boundaries, and how to make your wife respect them.

Episode #383

What happens when you take the brakes off your life?

Where in your life are you still holding back?

No matter what level you're playing at, the idea of Releasing the Brake always resonates. It can be tricky to know whether it's something that you just don't want to do...or if you're holding back.

The excuses in the stories that we tell ourselves are part of the brake. All too often we have our emergency brake on - and that leads to us living a life that's defined by dragging and grinding.

When you release the brakes in one area of your life, that same release begins to happen in other areas as well.

Take a quick inventory in all Five Territories, think about what you can do about it, and take an action.

In this episode, we are going to talk about the idea of releasing the brakes, what can you do to achieve that release, where you're holding back, and what can it do for you when you finally take the brakes off.

Episode #382

What would you say an average guy is going through?

Do they feel stuck? Are they trapped in a cycle, playing out generational patterns and unable to break free?

A lot of men get home and they don't get much affection from their wives. They experience this "roommate" syndrome - living with their spouse without the romantic love vibe that they had at the beginning of their marriage.

This is agonizing for them. In their head, they start to question themselves. Those thoughts are what lead to them neglecting themselves and self-sabotaging even more. This cycle continues until the foundation of their marriage begins to crumble beneath them.

How can you break the cycle?

Figure out what your best assets are and invest in them. Invest time and energy to better yourself. If you neglect that, your house will have the kind of shaky foundation that no amount of counseling can repair.

In this episode, we're talking about what the average guy is going through right now, why they feel stuck, and why they end up self-sabotaging. We'll also discuss the importance of breaking generational patterns for yourself and your kids, top fears guys have, and how to make your spouse desire you again.

If you are noticing that you are not comfortable with her behavior or the behavior of other men, is it jealousy or is it something that is compromising the health of your relationship?

Get clear on what your boundaries are, sit down with your partner and communicate about it. Have a discussion and make it fun. Don't take the jealous frame.

Thinking about asking for more sex, but afraid of seeming needy?

How can you initiate without putting everything on the line?

There are two types of initiation. Physical and verbal. Touch her in ways and in places that are sensual and intimate. Make her feel that this is not just some kind of movie you are making.

The big takeaway here is to enjoy being sensual with her. You can touch a woman in a way that makes her feel connected and feel cared for. Sex is about both arousal and comfort, so make sure she feels comfortable and safe enough first. Initiate the touch without expecting to go any further.

In verbal initiation, compliments are the big ticket. Be specific with your compliments so that she's really feeling your appreciation and your shared connection. Flirt, have fun, be silly!

Focus on how you can get intimate without being sexual - whether on the physical or verbal side. Have fun with it. Find ways to meet your needs and meets her needs.

In this episode, how to get more sex without seeming needy, and what you can do when you want to have sex with your wife. Based on the two types of initiation, we discuss things you can do to get her in the mood and to create chemistry.

When things get really good in your life and when everything is going so right, a lot of guys get scared of what could happen...

...and they self-sabotage.

Think of The Five Territories - you have a vision of yourself of what you believe you can do and you believe you can be. That is your upper limit. Until you readjust that thermostat, whenever you go above that limit, it'll crash back down. When you start to grow and supersede that limit, the thermostat kicks off. This happens in all areas of our lives.

In this episode, we are going to talk about why we self-sabotage and the steps on how to master stopping self-sabotage.

How do you decide what your style is? How do you determine your identity?

Over time, a lot of men give in to an easy and lazy lifestyle when it comes to fashion.

Fashion is the magazine and runway shows, maybe even things that you see on YouTube, and things you need to wear to be on-trend.

Style is understanding who you are and how you fit into the world and how you externally express that.

The first thing people pay attention to is your energy. If you're coming with energy that has been hindered or dampened, they'll be able to recognize that. There is a big difference between a guy who looks like he's wearing a suit because he has to...and a guy who looks like he's wearing a suit because he wants to.

In this episode, we are going to talk about Tanner Guzy's journey, men's fashion, how to determine your style & identity, and some easy things to do to get started in this process.

Why do so many successful men wait until the last minute to act?

How has The Activation Method changed Cavan Ramsey's life?

Before The Powerful Man, Cavan was working a good job, earning good money, and enjoying his seemingly wonderful family life. It was great - until things started coming apart.

He realized that he needed to do something different, but he thought he had everything under control.

One reason why successful men put things off is that they think they're in control of the situation. "Everything is fine and everything will get better."

When Cavan joined the program, he thought he was going to get all the answers to fix his marriage.

But it is not about fixing things externally. The Activation Method is focused on you and what you're doing - the impact that you have not only on yourself but on everyone close to you.

In this episode, we are going to talk about Cavan Ramsey's journey, why so many successful men wait until the last minute to join The Activation Method, and how TAM has changed his life - it can change yours, too!

When you see a gap in yourself, you work to address it on your path to becoming a better man, right? So why do you hold back from calling out the gaps you see in others?

People fear that they're going to be rejected for pointing out what's going on. If we are a team and we are committed to achieving a goal together, then if we don't call out the gaps that we see in someone else, we're sacrificing our own progress - because as a team we all achieve that one goal together.

A lot of people want to be accepted because they feel that it's safer. Wanting to be liked, accepted, and wanting others to enjoy our company prevents us from stepping in and leading. As a leader, you need to call out the gaps. You have to bear the risk of people not accepting you - so that you can the right thing for yourself and the team.

In this episode, we talk about core values - how to call out the gaps, why people hold back from doing this, how to stop the cycle, and how to lead properly and powerfully.

Would you say that you're having enough sex with your wife?

Is your wife the one who decides whether or not to have sex?

The key frame of reference in your relationship is summed up best with this question: "Whose reality we are living in?"

It's rare for two frames to collide and merge successfully. In most cases, one frame takes over the other.

It takes ONE to lead. Most women are going to enjoy the relationship more with a masculine man leading them. It's not about controlling your woman - it's about making it more enjoyable for her. Make it exciting, enticing, and a fantasy that she wants to live in.

In this episode, we are going to talk about sexuality, what the "sex frame" is, the eight ways to recover your sex frame, and how to tend the spark in your relationship so that it becomes a burning flame.

Why do some men never launch their big ideas? What keeps a man from acting on them?

We have our sense of identity...of who we are. A lot of times, we create a fantasy of this big idea, and we start to live in this fantasy world. The scary part is what we fear will happen to our identity if we launch that idea and it fails. Does that make you a failure?

The more grounded you are as a Powerful Man, the easier it is to go after the fantasy. When you're grounded, that fantasy gets attracted to you. When you're an Activated Man, all the territories are attracted to you.

Self-worth and self-image are tied tightly together. If your self-worth is high, then your sense of identity is solid - you aren't going to worry so much about how people think of you and how you think of yourself.

In this episode, we're going to talk about the real reason why men never launched their big ideas, the importance of self-worth and self-image, and the things you need to focus on when your situation is at its worst.

Do you celebrate your wins, no matter how big or small?

Instead of focusing on whatever bad things have happened, celebrate your wins. Write them down, look at the things that make you happy, and make that the lens through which you see the world.

If you focus on the negative, you're going to get more of the same. If you are focusing on things that are going well, on your wins, those are going to keep coming your way as well.

Look at life through the lens of your wins. Program your subconscious and your conscious mind to look for wins and victories. Do not be a guy who thinks about negative things. Be the happy one that everybody wants to be around. It's not that you are 'faking' it - you are changing what you are focusing on.

In this episode, we are going to talk about why winners celebrate wins, what happens when you allow yourself to count the small wins, how to change what you focus on, how to make wins easy for yourself...and win more.

Are you in a relationship where your wife becomes more of the alpha?

Do you think of a man who is a complete jerk - the total asshole?

Episode #356

How did you get into a position where you have to ask your wife's permission for everything?

And how can you regain leadership in your relationship?

Being in a position where you have to ask your wife's permission is a major red flag.

Men often think they are doing the right thing. They think they are asking their wife for permission as a show of respect. They are terrified because maybe the marriage isn't going too well or the connection isn't there or there are "warning shots" of separation.

Stop asking for permission to live your life. Stop asking permission to lead your family. Stop asking for permission to be you. If you know that your decision is right for you and your family, just step into it.

In this episode, we are going to talk about how you may have gotten into this position where you have to ask your wife's permission - and how to regain leadership in your relationship, take control, and prove yourself in your decisions.

Episode #355

Before he started The Activation Method, he was under massive strain. He was dealing with a stressful business, a personal injury, and his child being sick. He finally tried reaching out to doctors and seeking help...because he was experiencing a physical and mental breakdown.

If you are struggling with something, if there is something you don't know, ask somebody for help. Don't let ego get in the way. Go out and find the help you need.

Many men neglect themselves in the pursuit of other things - money, success, you know the rest. There's a lot more to life than just business. If you are making the effort to "fill your cup" in every area of your life, you simply have so much to give - for yourself and for those you love.

In this episode, we are going to talk about Ben Wood's journey, how The Activation Method and Alpha Reset changed him and his perspective, and his advice to men who are not sure how to commit to themselves.

Episode #354

How do you make your wife feel sexy?

What can you do to make your woman feel desired?

A woman's desire is to be needed and wanted. Women's internal need is to be truly seen by her man. If she can't be seen by her man the way she needs to, she's gonna seek that validation outside the relationship.

If you catch your wife doing something sexy, compliment her on her sexiness - and do it every single day. Compliment her privately and publicly. Being seen as valued and desired allows her to feel better about herself.

In this episode, we are going to talk about how to make your wife feel sexy, what to do to make her feel desired, and how being activated helps in making your wife feel sexy.

Episode #353

Is your wife using sex as a weapon?

Sex is easily one of the most important and powerful aspects of a marriage. But when women start using sex as a weapon, usually through denial, there might be something deeply wrong in the relationship.

If this is happening, you'll quickly find yourself in a beta or deactivated state.

As a man, you need to sit down and call it out. Have a conversation with your wife about it. Find a way to transform from a deactivated state to activated.

Start building your courage and confidence - this will be the foundation of who you become. It will naturally spill over into your relationship.

Your wife will start to see you differently. She'll start to see certainty and stability in you, and she'll start to trust you again.

Everyone deserves the best - the respect, the admiration, the intimacy. You can have them back by doing the work on yourself. Stand your ground, draw the line, and become activated.

In this episode, you will learn the importance of becoming activated - being an alpha - and how that leads directly to the kind of sex life you want from your wife. Free yourself from sexual manipulation and regain the respect of your wife.

Episode #352

What would do if you find out that your wife is cheating on you?

How would you deal with it? Do you confront your wife?

When men get hurt like this, shame becomes prevalent.

Shame is where it gets dangerous. Shame stops men from reaching out to other guys. Shame comes around from the feeling of not being enough. The shame and the hurt cause men to go into an ultra-beta mode or DEERing - Defending, Explaining, Excusing, Rationalizing.

You got to take full responsibility for everything in your life. Take full responsibility - but always remember that this is not your fault. This is on them. Even if you have contributed in some way, it doesn't make an allowance for that kind of behavior.

In this episode, we are going to talk about physical and emotional cheating, what to do when you find out that your wife is cheating on you, how to handle it, and what you can do about it.

Episode #351

How can you learn to share and open up more?

How do you reach out without worrying about the shame around it?

Most men don't have the courage to ask for help...or even to ask for directions. You can't solve your own problems from the same perspective that you are currently in. If you are struggling in any area, reaching out is the way forward.

When we openly and freely ask for help, we travel more efficiently and enjoy the journey - all without stress, worry, or shame.

In this episode, we talk about the struggles many men are facing, how we're able to deal with them, and how important it is to ask for help without worrying about the shame around it.

What is your presence online like?

Do you have social media profiles - Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram...maybe even some of the newer ones?

If so, are you active there? Do you regularly check them? Update them? Post to them?

Your social media shows how you as a man are represented in the world before you get there. Do not be fake. There is nothing worse than meeting somebody who's been lying and misrepresenting themselves. Be a complete version of yourself.

Share the lifestyle and the philosophies that you live by. People find this kind of genuineness very appealing. The more you share the more it strengthens your identity.

In this episode, we are going to talk about being The Director of First Impressions, what your social media is doing for you, how to have the assurance that your reputation is being upheld above and beyond what is needed, and how important it is to audit your first impressions.

When is it time to "pull out the roots" of a problem? And how do you do it?

There are reasons why certain things keep coming up. What do you do when your wife brings up a problem from the past?

It is a common issue when you and your partner have a checkered history. Disagreements, arguments, mistakes. You've moved on but she keeps on bringing it up over and over again and you are sick and tired of it.

This happens when you failed to address the actual issue in the beginning. The only way to close the loop is to validate her properly and make her feel completely heard, understood, and seen.

Most of the time when things get tough in your marriage, things get tough in your business, too.

You're living in a cycle - trying the same thing over and over again. But if you continue to do what you have always done, it's just not going to work. You get to change, to take radical action.

Are you a good father?

How do your habits and behaviors affect your child?

If a man becomes a leader and becomes re-activated, everybody around him experiences a ripple effect - they start to follow the leader.

Kids are monkey-see, monkey-do. If they can pick up your bad habits, they can also pick up your good habits. When the man who is the leader of the family changes himself positively and your child witnessed that change, that child's behavior shifts. If you are worried you are going to screw your kids up, unscrew them up by fixing yourself, improving, and walking the walk that we call The Powerful Man.

We want to be role models for our children. Show your child that you are going to conquer your issues and that you are gonna invest time, money, and resources into improving yourself.

That is going to serve your child far more than anything else.

That will make you a good father.

In this episode, we are going to talk about guilt and shame, how to be a leader, and what it means to be a good father to your child.

Episode #346

What happens to us when we get envious?

What happens when envy disappears?

When we start getting envious, we start making up stories. Subconsciously, our brain tells us that "we can't have this" and "we can't achieve that".

Envy stops you in your tracks - preventing you from getting the income, body, or relationship that you want. Envy stands in your way and blocks you from achieving your goals.

Instead of engaging in envy, try something different:

Applaud!

Train and program your brain to work that way, too. Something magical happens when you start genuinely congratulating someone on their achievements - you take a piece of that accomplishment for yourself.

When you congratulate and applaud, you get to share in the joy that person feels when they've achieved something. It's abundance, and it's a great place to be.

In this episode, we are going to talk about what happens to us when we get envious, and how to stop being envious and start participating in abundance.

Episode #343

One of the biggest positive shifts that can happen in a business is when its leaders commit to personal accountability. When leaders hold themselves to the highest standard, it naturally follows that they inspire everyone around them to that same height.

By the same token, when your business isn't going well, that's often a reflection of what is going on for you. It is a reflection of how you live your life.

It goes both ways. Look at the biggest complaints that you have in your business and in your relationship. Look at all Five Territories. You'll see that your complaints have a lot in common.

Your staff, their attitudes, and the work environment are ultimately a direct reflection of you.

In this episode, we are going to talk about standards and the idea of accountability - putting in the time, effort, and energy - and what you can do when your business is not working as it should.

Take massive action. If you want to change something do it now and don't complain.

What can you do when DIY doesn't work?

What will it cost you?

Drywall is something that a lot of people think they can do on their own. Seems easy enough, right?

If you've ever tried, you know it's much harder than it looks to do even a decent job.

If you want your drywalling done right and looking good, it's simple - hire a professional. The harder a thing is to do well, the more you need an expert. Work with professionals and make sure things are done right.

As you might have guessed, this goes for building up your relationship, too.

The idea of doing it on your own seems manly. But if you don't do it right, another man is going to come in and tear it all down. We don't have the luxury of having a second or third chance. So rather than doing it on your own, hire a professional, have them come in, and have it done right the first time.

In this episode, we are going to talk about the DIY approach to relationships and what will it cost you if it doesn't work.

What is your market sexual value? How can you calculate your SMV...and what can you do to get that number up?

Are you finding yourself in the nice guy trap?

Are you in a deactivated state?

Let's say you're a stock in an open market. Let's also say that you are fully owned by your wife. If your stock price has been going down since you got married, wouldn't it make sense to trade some of it on the market for a stock that's rising in value?

Your wife made an investment, and she's looking for you to go up in value.

Your external attitude (physical appearance, etc.) and your internal attitude (character - who you are as a man) is very important. Your energetic presence precedes you.

If somebody is investing in bettering themselves, their market value is going to go up. If you apply an external look with an internal game, it's game over. Your sexual market value will never go down.

In this episode, we are going to talk about how discipline and honesty affect your sexual market value, how to know what things to change to better yourself, and the two main ways to increase your sexual market value.

Guys beg for sex for different reasons. Some beg for sex because their wife is the only person who can provide it. Some guys are worried that they're going to go out and cheat to get their needs met.

When you find yourself in a position where you are begging for sex from your wife, remember that it is probably the most unsexy thing a guy can do.

Awareness is the first key. Some guys don't even realize that they're begging. You want her to want it just as much as you do! And for that, a woman must feel seen, heard, and desired.

You're an Alpha. You know what you want and you go after it. And if she says no...that's fine! Laugh it off like it's no big deal.

Stop begging immediately. Implement the Triad of Connection, it can get this process moving in your direction. Practice engaged indifference, as if she is not the only one that can satisfy your needs. That will cause a shift in the power dynamics. Remember, you are not gonna beg for it.

What does effective leadership look like?

A successful leader is more of an adviser, a mentor, and a coach. It allows you to lead on a higher level.

The most common mistake people make when leading teams is trying to "lead-by-consensus". Maybe it's fear, or a genuine desire to do right by those you lead. But leadership-by-consensus most often produces a team that is stagnant, unmotivated, and entirely lacking any clarity.

Take that leadership role. Take charge as a leader - not as a dictator, but more as a guide.

In this episode, we are going to talk about how to lead effectively, common problems that arise in leading teams, and the steps we can take to allow us to be successful and effective leaders.

Most women who're at home taking care of the house are bored with no sense of purpose. Not fulfilling her potential and not being able to go after her dreams feels horrible, miserable, and is completely unfulfilling.

When she finds a purpose or something that she enjoys, just listen. You may know more, but resist the temptation to help her unless she asks you first. Sit back and let her discover things in her own way.

If things are not as good at home - arguments, distance, conflict - it may be because she isn't doing what she wants to be doing. Maybe she doesn't even know what she wants. When women give up on who they wanted to be and were never been able to find it again, they will become unhappy.

In this episode, we are going to talk about how to know if your wife is feeling unfulfilled, how to learn what she really wants, and what you can do to help.

How would you recommend "putting your foot down" in a calm way?

And what is Nice Guy Syndrome?

The psychology of slot machines is that, even if you don't win something, you'll still have the hope and expectation that you're just a little bit closer. It keeps you coming back - hoping, expecting - and this is how addiction gets formed in gambling. It's the rush of possibility.

Most guys at some point fall into the Nice Guy Syndrome. Constantly doing nice things, doing things for her, waiting for the dopamine hit, expecting and hoping for sex. Then, when they get their needs met and they get the attention and affection that they want, they turn their husband into a friend.

Recognize the state that you are in and get activated. Learn who you are, what you deserve, and how to stand in your power effectively. Get what you want without being a dick, but being a natural, powerful man.

In this episode, we are going to talk about the Nice Guy Syndrome, playing good cards and bad cards, how to "put your foot down", get reactivated, and how to turn from being just a Nice Guy to a Powerful Man.

Spend time thinking about it.

When you're looking to make a big change in your life, one of the easiest traps to fall into is to use your individuality as an excuse:

"Sure, that may have worked for you, but I'm different..."

So, how do you stop making those excuses?

Everybody's situation and background are different. But you all have one thing in common - You want to be a better man.

When you notice that you're feeling like a victim and when you start making excuses, filter your mind and start moving forward. Take your first step forward immediately. Sometimes your brain plays tricks on you. It makes you believe that all your justifications are true...when they are not.

As soon as you start making those excuses, trigger an immediate response. Do the first action that will move you in the direction that you wanted to go. Get optics on where you are, skip the excuses, figure out what you want, and move forward.

In this episode, we are going to talk about how to stop making excuses and start making fuel for your fire - to become the man you want to be.

Many people struggle with "shiny object syndrome" and a belief that they can be great at everything. We usually want it all, and we think that we can do more than what we're actually capable of. We give up on mastery for a perception of "being okay" at a bunch of things...a "jack-of-all-trades".

Write down your top 25 goals from the five territories and then circle the 5 most important goals for you. Focus on those 5 things. The other 20 goals go on a separate list. These are the absolute do not do, do not touch goals. Do not spend any time in that zone.

Once you have these five primary goals, go all-in with dedicated focus. You can replace only the goals that you finish. Achieve your top goals first before moving onto your next goal. Focus on one thing at a time.

In this episode, we are going to talk about Warren Buffet's secret, The 25-5 Rule, the do-not-do list vs. the do-list, and how to focus on achieving your goals.

What are you hiding from your wife? Is it something you're ashamed of?

Shame is the biggest issue. You are hiding from your wife because you feel shameful about the behavior, and that can lead to a lot of problems. It will show up in your marriage, your work, and how you perform in every part of your life.

There are things that you don't want her to find out because you are worried about the reaction she's gonna give you. It happens to a lot of guys...but be open. It's part of the relationship. The reason we don't share is that we are judging ourselves. We are so reliant on our spouse for filling us up. We focus on our needs getting met by them. Before you realize what's happening, you've become a needy man...and that is not a good place to be. Nobody wants to be there.

It doesn't feel good to carry around a lie. It feels heavy. It's truly easier to reach out to your wife rather than lying and hiding from her. Just come clean. It can be scary at first but it will feel great. You will feel so much better after.

In this episode, we are going to talk about the things you are hiding from your wife, the reasons why you are hiding something, and the steps you can take to come clean with your wife.

You don't become a successful business leader without you and your wife being considered as a "power couple".

But is there really power in your relationship? Do you feel like a powerful couple?

If you have problems in your marriage that you can't figure out, you'll feel embarrassed and ashamed that you are not what people think you are. You can't talk to anyone about it because everyone puts you up on a pedestal...everyone knows who you are. Everyone sees you as a power couple, with respect and admiration.

But you know the truth.

In a relationship, if you know what you can be and it's not what you are - that's what eats you up inside. Invest and work on yourself first. As you change, your wife will change with you. You can become a power couple from the inside-out.

It doesn't have to look perfect, but it will be real.

In this episode, we are going to talk about the curse of the power couple, how to deal with it, and what it means to be a true power couple.

Episode #324

Would you say you're a great husband?

What qualities of yours would you like to remove or replace?

What qualities would you add to make your life and your relationship a little bit better?

For example, a great husband is not a drunk, or abusive. Look within your character and idealize what being a great husband looks like for you. Look at the qualities and attributes that you want to accentuate within yourself...qualities that you want to magnify and amplify.

You cannot recognize the qualities of an ideal husband within other people unless they are within you. There are attributes of an ideal husband inside of you but there are some things that are holding you back from becoming one.

In this episode, we are going to talk about the attributes of an ideal husband, the process of becoming one, and how to be an ideal husband without thinking about what other people might say about you.

Episode #323

How are you going to solve your problems?

If you've been dealing with the same problem for a long time, unable to find a solution on your own, you know what you should do - go to an expert who can properly identify the problem, help you to move forward, and can get you to a better place.

It can be tough to take that step and admit that you don't have the answers or the solutions. For a lot of guys, it can be a difficult choice...but it is better to solve the problem rather than continue to live with it.

Always seek a clear picture of where you are. Focus on the problems that need to be solved. Be honest with yourself.

When wrestling with your problem and what it's costing you, ask yourself: Is this a price I am willing to pay?

If the answer is no, commit yourself and take an action from there. Stop trying to solve problems on your own that you simply don't have solutions for.

In this episode, we are going to talk about how to deal with your problems, the importance of expert help, and what you can do to change the situation you are in.

Episode #322

When you give up all respect for yourself, your family and your wife will not respect you either. You'll become increasingly defensive and needy, and your wife will simply, and rightly, spend less time around you.

How can you fix this?

One effective first step is to focus on becoming trustworthy. Be a man of your word. Stop breaking promises, with yourself and with your wife. Start small and restore that trust you once had.

Get clear and admit where you are in all areas of your life. Work on reclaiming yourself first. Take care of yourself more than focusing on how to please your wife.

In this episode, we are going to talk about some of the reasons why she doesn't want to spend time with you anymore, and how to get back to a place where you and your wife can genuinely enjoy each other's company.

What is quality time?

Are you meeting your wife's needs while maintaining your desires and taking care of yourself?

One of your partner's greatest needs is for quality time - and the key word here is quality. Too many men fail to apply something like The 80-20 Rule to quality time with their wife and family.

The idea is to see to your wife's needs by being very present. Get grounded in who you are as a man and stand in your power. Deflect the stress and the worries, tune out the outside influences, and be mindful of habitual behavior. Focus on being fully present.

In this episode, we are going to talk about meeting your wife's needs, the definition of quality time, and how to provide quality time to your wife and family.

What does it mean to be a 'deer' or a 'wolf' in a relationship?

The more masculine you are, the more feminine she allows herself to be. Learn how to be masculine without being a dick. Show masculine energy from a healthy, loving, and open perspective. Join The Activation Method, take care of yourself to look better and feel better. Be real and honest with yourself and start doing masculine things.

Is it possible to have it all?

What does Work/Life "balance" mean to you?

The key to having it all in the Five Territories of life is to identify and seek out Rhythm. Eradicate the idea of Balance and embrace the idea of Rhythm.

Episode #317

What are the four things that you need to eliminate in your relationship to make sure it won't end?

1. CRITICISM - the attack on someone's character. When you're criticizing, you're actually insulting that person's character. When you criticize your wife, she will either shut down or attack you. The same goes for when your wife criticizes you, you either shut down or attack her because you get hurt and offended.

2. CONTEMPT - the feeling that a person or a thing is beneath consideration, worthless, or deserving scorn. Contempt takes criticism further, to where we actively mock, belittle, or show genuine ugliness towards our partner.

3. DEFENSIVENESS - Sometimes we get defensive when we are accused unfairly. More often, however, it’s something we fall into when we didn’t do something we were supposed to and we feel guilty. We make excuses. Or we shift the blame onto someone else.

4. ???- Listen and find out!

In this episode, you will learn about the Four Horsemen in a relationship and how you can avoid them to make your relationship last long.

You are the CEO of your own life. Decide if you are going to "promote" or "demote" yourself by evaluating how did you perform in the Five Territories of your life: Self, Health, Wealth, Relationship, and Business.

If I were to ask your wife if she thinks you show up as your authentic self every day....what would she say?

Would those closest to you say that you are fully living out who you are.....or would they say that they can see you trying to be someone you're not?

We have this perceived idea of who we "SHOULD" be and who we think our loved ones around us "WANT" us to be...but the reality is, those who truly love us want us to be the highest and most authentic version of ourselves.

In this episode, Doug and Tim touch a bit on The Gap and what it looks like when we aren't showing up as our true selves and where we can start to step into that person.

You begin by respecting yourself and your own time. Don't let her take the dominant role and don't let yourself be sacrificed for her.

How do you become dominant using "the dopamine surprise"? How do you take back your Alpha role?

Surprise her and snap her out of the routine for her to realize that you are the true Alpha. When she gets surprised, she has a choice subconsciously to either fight with you or submit to you. If she submits, dopamine is released and there is an excitatory response that allows her to fall into her feminine, putting you naturally in the Alpha role.

How can you do this? Try planning something that keeps her guessing and gets her excited. Lead the journey and be in control.

In this episode, we are going to talk about steps to spice up your relationship while maintaining your dominant frame, and how to add an element of excitement and submission that will put you in the Alpha driver's seat.

How do you keep the sexual chemistry and the spark alive in your relationship through the years?

One of the things women are fond of us men for is our sense of humor. But over time, when we receive rejections from our wives after teasing them, there will come a point when we deactivate our sense of humor. We stop teasing and making jokes.

We become afraid of rejection and become timid. We become attached to the negative outcome, thus lowering our confidence when dealing with our wives.

One way to overcome it is to be playfully mean. Start joking to your wife and laugh at it even if your wife won't give the reaction you're expecting.

Be confident with your approach. Be the Alpha once again.

In this episode, learn how you can bring back the excitement in your marriage, reactivate your sense of humor, and win your wife back.

When was the last time you had sex with your wife where the two of you really enjoyed each other?

Eroticism comes from the savoring of the moment. You can eat the meal or taste the meal.

Are you the type of person who eats fast, and only for the sake of getting food into your stomach?

Or are you that type who eats slowly, enjoy every bite you take, savoring the flavor of what you are eating?

The secret to bringing back that eroticism in bed is to be present, physically and emotionally, with your wife. Start by having fun. For some guys, maybe you forget how to have fun in the bedroom. Explore each part of her body and just enjoy yourself.

In this episode, you will learn the importance of being there with your wife. Savor every moment when you're making love. Bring back the fun of having sex with your wife.

Where are you in your Self?

...in your Wealth?

...in your Health?

...in your Relationships?

...in your Business?

Take a snapshot of where you are at this very moment.

Knowing where you are will help you figure out where you're going. When you delay your happiness until some time in the future, you will miss the entire point of the process...which is to enjoy it.

Be mindful of any judgment or comparison, or labeling something as good or bad, because it will prevent you from owning where you are.

What's the difference between Alpha traits and Beta traits?

What does it mean to be an Alpha?

An ALPHA is someone who leads his own life, leads his own family, and leads his business. An Alpha is someone who takes charge, someone whose words are powerful and everyone will listen to. An Alpha leads by example.

A BETA is mostly the opposite of the ALPHA. A Beta is someone who likes to just go with the flow, someone who just does what he was told, and someone who is stuck at playing as "The Nice Guy".

And when you're the Beta in your relationship, chances are, your wife will be the Alpha, which is dangerous. Both of you being Betas isn't good, either. A relationship with two Betas is like driving a car without any destination. Who would like to have that kind of relationship?

In this episode, you will learn the importance of being an Alpha in your relationship. Having that kind of ownership in your relationship will help your marriage to last.

Are the complaints you have the same as the ones you had last year, or 2 years ago?

Are you repeating patterns of the past?

Where are we?

Until we get honest with ourselves, we're not going anywhere.

Change should start within you. It starts with being honest about where you are currently. Take an assessment to see if you're repeating mistakes of the past.

Einstein said, "You can't solve a problem with the same level of thinking that creates it." If you want to make sure this year is different, change your filter and shift your thinking. The fastest way is to hire somebody, find a coach or a mentor to give that outside perspective.

You have to be conscious about it, recognize your triggers, get clarity around it, and do something.

The Powerful Man pivoted big time in the year 2020.

The movement brought alumni together and tackled topics about thriving during the pandemic instead of merely surviving it. This helped the men discover how they could serve their business, relationships, and communities better.

While other people binged on Netflix, hiding out elsewhere, men from this group focused on how to thrive in 2020 and stepped up their game in their business and relationship.

One of the highlights is The Powerful Marriage Reset. Coaches provided information and tools on how men from this group could save their marriages and how to have their best year in business.

Another highlight was the virtual retreat, which got everyone following the Alpha Rise and Shine Protocol. Through the movement, men realized that showing up in a big way is the best thing they did, and allowed them to go from the impossible to a new reality.

In this episode, let's review what happened in 2020 learn how the men from The Powerful Man were able to thrive, and how the movement was able to help business owners to show up and step up their game in order to better serve not only their business but also their families and communities.

What do you think is the driving force behind why we lose connection in our relationships? Is it a lack of prioritization?

Most people say that the proper prioritization is that the individual must take care of themselves first, then the relationship, then the kids. However, sometimes the kids get sick and need your help and attention, so they are taken care of first in order for you to take care of yourself.

When you have kids, the relationship "dries out" a little bit. You tend to forget to provide for each other's emotional needs, as individuals and as a couple, because your focus is mainly on the kids.

We must take care of ourselves first. Be honest with yourself. Sit with your wife, come up with what you want individually, what you want as a couple, and find ways to fit those wants into your relationship. Make a system that works for you and your family. Do something fun and take care of yourself so that you can take care of your relationship and your family.

When was the last time you took your wife on a date?

If you're not actively dating your wife, you won’t be able to build and grow a deeper connection in the relationship.

Typically, we become so busy making money to provide for all the needs of our family that we often forget to plan a date night with our wife. This will often result in feeling guilty for not being able to offer the attention that our partner needs, which is why we resort to alternatives. We buy expensive gifts for her in order to make up for those missed date nights, but that’s not the true connection she’s looking for. Because of this, the disconnection between you grows, and soon you will realize that you and your partner are slowly drifting apart.

It's important to work on yourself in order to have the energy you need to truly nurture your relationship. Prioritize your relationship with your wife. Date her the way you dated her before your marriage. Make her feel special.

Dedicate a space and time to connect with her without mentioning anything about business. Give her that deeper level of intimacy and connection.

In this episode, you will learn the importance of dating your wife, the effects of relying on the alternatives instead of dating your wife to build a connection, how to nurture your relationship and how to provide emotion in the relationship.

Episode #289

It is our nature as humans to be impatient. We want immediate gratification, and we want everything now because of the society we are living in.

And yet, when we are given things that we aren’t ready for we often crumble easily.

In order for us to grow, we must learn through the process. It is important for us to enjoy the journey and shift as an individual along the way, allowing us to enjoy the result and the destination that much more.

Being a man means doing what is necessary even if it’s not easy. A powerful man does what it takes to get there.

He focuses on the process instead of focusing on the result. He lets go of the external validation and lives from the inside out.

While going through the journey you will be able to find your center, the true powerful man within you, and you will be able to enjoy the outcome more.

In this episode, you will learn the importance of being patient and of living from the inside out, how to enjoy the results that you want, and how to find the powerful man within you through the process.

Episode #286

When your spouse is going through something, do you feel the urge to "save" her or do you want to lead her?

We tend to try and solve other people's problems because we want external validation. We'd love to help other people because it makes us feel good about ourselves and makes us feel significant in the world that we live in.

Saving seems to be the most honorable thing, but in reality, it's the last thing most people want. If you want to help her, allow her to go through the process. That's leadership.

Make her feel emotionally safe and trust you fully. Once you're solid within yourself, then you can become like the lighthouse in the storm. The lighthouse stands, guiding her home, no matter how hard the waves are crashing.

Show her the way, how to solve it, without any expectation of a particular outcome. That's when people start following. Women don't want to be saved, they want to be led.

In this episode, you will learn how important is it for women to be led, not saved, by a powerful man, as we go deeper into some of the key differences between saving and leading.

What level are you in your relationship?

What is your model when it comes to marriage?

There are 3 levels to a relationship. Level 3 means your marriage is outstanding. Both of you are playing full out in the relationship. Both parties are completely transparent in everything, and love permeates every day of your lives together.

Level 2 means things are just fine. An average relationship when compared to others.

Level 1 means things aren't working. Both of you are considering options...or divorce. Level 1 is the danger zone. The wife is not satisfied, the husband is not satisfied, and that dissatisfaction is showing up in your everyday lives. There's no love in the relationship.

Are you confident about your decisions? Are you insecure and worried about not getting approval from your wife?

Unknowingly, men can become the beta in the relationship, especially when women start to make demands or test their partner. Men become more submissive. This is when the DEER appears: Defending, Excusing, Explaining, and Rationalizing. You only do that with someone you are subordinate to.

Episode #271

Success does not always mean having material things, making a lot of money, and getting that feeling of significance and respect from other people. Many financially successful people are unhappy because they became exhausted hustling and working hard thinking that these things will make them happy.

There are so many rules in place that are holding them back and that makes their life monotonous. The more money they make, the more they become unhappy because these rules take them farther away from the real essence of what it means to be a human being. This void cannot be filled with material things. Fill this void within by breaking the rules and giving yourself permission to experience spontaneous fun.

People often feel the need to be busy all the time, thinking that having fun is a waste of time and money. They do not realize that sometimes, while having fun, more creative ideas pop up. If you bring fun and joy into more areas of your life, you will make a lot more progress.

Do not allow your happiness to depend on anything or anyone. We don’t need anything else outside ourselves to experience joy. We have the joy and fun inside us, we just need to learn to generate it and radiate it.

In this episode, you will learn the importance of allowing yourself to experience spontaneous fun and incorporating fun into more areas of your life.

Are you doing things that your wife isn't aware of?

Is it because you know in your heart that she will not approve it?

You're micro-dosing, hanging out with your friends, drinking, or going out to places that your wife probably wouldn't approve of.

We are so used to telling 'white' lies when we're doing things that our wives won't agree with or which might cause conflict with them.

It's okay to tell 'white' lies occasionally, but if you're doing it constantly...Houston, we have a problem.

What kind of distance does it put in a relationship when you're constantly having to lie? It's different when you're trying to create mystery and intimacy in your relationship by not saying something. Like date nights, or if you're working hard to surprise her. However, if your intent is to just lie and to avoid getting into conflict, then there's a problem inside of you.

In this episode, join Tim and Doug in discussing one of the most common problems in every relationship that most of us are facing. Stop being a LIAR. Don't fall into the trap of lying constantly because one way or another, it will create chaos in your relationship.

No matter how much money you have or how successful your business is…if you are not clear on who you want to be, you will still end up feeling empty.

We become blinded by the norms set by society and end up following somebody else’s guidance on how we should be living our lives instead of finding our own way.

We end up striving for somebody else’s ideas of what it means to be a man and have success. Until we determine our own definition of success and being a man, we will feel incomplete...like we are not good enough.

We become trapped in this belief that when we have more money we can solve everything, and THEN we can be happy. We get to work, keeping ourselves busy making money, and end up losing our connection with our loved ones along the way.

In this episode, we dive deep into HOW we can take control of our self-beliefs and shift them to create a happier and more fulfilling mindset.

Are you a certified coffee addict or an alcohol lover?

Reducing the intake of caffeine and alcohol, or totally getting rid of both, could make a great impact on your life. Especially in terms of large decision-making and how you perform in your business.

Being dependent on coffee & alcohol tends to make people more unstable and anxious all the time. It also reduces your alpha brainwaves that you need most when it comes to decision-making, especially for high-performing men.

One way to increase your alpha brainwaves is by reducing your caffeine and alcohol intake. It will make you less anxious, more present, more centered, and you will achieve your flow state as a powerful man.

It is difficult for most people to give up these two. But in order to do it, you can try using coffee and alcohol alternatives just to get the stimuli that you need. As a result, you will become more focused and in your flow state more often.

In this episode, Doug shares his personal experience and journey with coffee & alcohol and why you might want to consider limiting your consumption.

Is your wife or your partner getting enough sex from you?

Or are you just getting it off from your phone or your computer?

How do you know when you're consuming too much PORN? Why do you watch porn in the first place?

How does it affect us, men, really?

One of the things a lot of people don't think about porn is the inhibiting effects it brings to us. For a lot of guys, it becomes HABITUAL. It becomes what they do every night, every morning, every day, in the office, etc.

It becomes a compulsive habit for them. And with that habit, like for any compulsion, you're always needing more.

This oftentimes can cause issues with your partner. Because now, you're leaking energy outside of the relationship.

EXCESSIVE porn creates a false reality about how relationships really are. A lot of men forget that porn is done by actors, who only act out peoples' fantasies rather than the realities.

In this episode, we'll have a deeper discussion on the topic of PORN. And at the end of the podcast, ask yourself if you're consuming too much porn. Remember that too much of anything is bad. Don't let porn control you.

Episode #253

We live in a society where we're taught that money can solve everything. As a man, we think that we need to make more money to keep our marriage or relationship going. We become addicted to work because we always feel that the money we’re making is not enough. So, we grind even more...leaving us never satisfied.

When we’re too focused on making money, we forget to switch off and end up working even more when we get home. We tend to forget our other responsibilities to our partner, which creates a gap in the relationship.

The marriage then begins to break because the man loses himself along the way. He identifies himself as a businessman or business owner and that becomes his identity. Since he thinks that it’s his identity, it is difficult for him to switch off. The gap in the relationship becomes bigger and bigger until you don’t know your wife anymore...you don't even know yourself.

In this episode, we talk about how to switch off from work, reclaim your identity, and know who you really are. We also talk about the importance of knowing who your wife is, not the woman you married but who she is becoming in the relationship.

Episode #252

Every man wants to be the king of the household. In return, they expect passion and intense desire from their partner. A woman, on the other hand, wants a man in her life but if her partner expects her to pick up his clothes for him & do all the chores at home alone, then the energy she has will be quickly consumed. She will have little time or energy to spend as 'husband and wife'.

In this cycle, she will get tired of doing the things that a mother typically does for her son. And THIS is when the dynamic of the relationship starts to change from 'husband and wife' to 'mother and son'.

Men often don’t realize this because they have this sense of entitlement in being the one making the money, and their energy is being consumed at work. So to them…picking up their clothes from the floor is not worth their time.

If this cycle continues, their partner will lose their desire completely and will start to look outside of her marriage to fulfill that desire.

Doing the basics around the house doesn’t mean giving in. You are acting as a leader, an adult, and as a man. Do some helpful things for the people you love and give the feminine energy the freedom to thrive. Be that king who makes his castle as clean as possible.

Episode #249

What if your wife wasn’t a bitch?

Your partner was given to you because she is the teacher of your greatest lessons, protecting you from your greatest fears, anxieties, and those things that trigger you so often. And you are there to learn from each other. In partnership, we attract a woman who is meant to invite us and teach us to be the man that we are capable of being, or we are destined to be in many ways.

When you go through this situation with your wife and you choose to see her as a bitch, you should realize that you need to work on yourself so that you can see it differently. It is easy for us humans to put our blame on other people...especially on the person closest to us...but the root of the problem sometimes is inside of you.

Instead of wishing for your wife to be easier or instead of wishing that you have married an easier woman, you should focus on how you can be better. You should face the challenges the woman might be presenting to you with playfulness and confidence. Most of the time, women test you to see how solid and secure they are with you.

She is pointing out opportunities for you to grow. Look at yourself and start to inquire about what it is within you that has been triggered right now, and what is the opportunity you have to learn and grow. It's all about taking complete ownership so that you can be a better man. When you see it as an opportunity rather than a problem, it becomes something fun to do.

Why don't men seek help when they're stuck?

Men are taught to be a certain kind of leader...to be a man who doesn't cry and who doesn't show vulnerability. But for men, being stuck is a sign of weakness.

Rather than seeing that as weak, think of it as a sign of strength. By talking about it and accepting it, you demonstrate that you don't care about the weakness. Live a transparent life so that no one can point a finger at you, because you have already admitted, accepted, and spoken on all of the things that you have been most ashamed of in the past. Own the 'negativity' about yourself, and own it with pride.

In this episode, we are going to talk about what area men usually get stuck in, and what to do about it.

How can you say sorry without giving up your power?

Apologizing to our women is one of the hardest things for us men to do. Usually, we don't apologize when we feel that we haven't done anything wrong.

However, if we really think that we have done something wrong, we tend to do everything we could and lower ourselves just to make it up to her.

This is not healthy.

One thing you could do is explain to her why you've gotten angry in the first place. Tell her how did you feel and in return, ask for her side of things. In this way, both of you can learn from each other's shoes and will be more mature when conflicts arise in the future.

Listen to this episode and learn more from Doug Holt and Ryan Peach and stop your old ways of apologizing.

What makes a great leader in business AND at home?

A great leader is a person that is always in the front drawing their team to where they are going to and inspiring others through their action and their communication.

The first step to becoming a great leader is to take inventory of yourself.

The best way to do this is to have smart people around you give you honest feedback. You need to understand where you are succeeding and where you are failing both as an individual and a leader. Once you have that feedback, you then get to take massive action and be the inspired leader that you know you can be.

You get to take care of yourself and put yourself first.

When you are sacrificing yourself for others, that will put a lot of pressure on your life.

The secret to being a great leader is to be a great self leader first.

Episode #236

Do you argue a lot with your wife or your partner?

Are you tired of arguing with her?

Typically women argue to connect, while men argue to win which is why it’s very difficult to win in an argument with your wife.

Persuasive communication is the key to avoid being the bad cop in the conversation. If you do this, you will be able to not only get what you want in that situation but also get connection and intimacy with your partner during the communication.

As a man, it is very more important that you validate what your partner feels, make her understand that she is your priority and that you don’t want her to feel otherwise.

Hold your ground and communicate calmly. State what you don’t want and what you do want in that situation but at the same time, understand what outcome she wants in that situation so that she will feel seen, heard, and understood.

In order for you to be able to hold your ground in these situations, you must have a strong foundation first. Focus on yourself, know who you are as a man, and know that there is a powerful man inside you.

Most business owners start their business to make money and have more freedom in their life but they end up becoming a slave to their business.

Most business owners are perceived as being successful, charismatic, and leaders within their business but when you take a look into their personal lives & relationships, they’re falling short. Their life has become about them serving their business and not the other way around.

They typically hold the belief that nobody could replace them. And when they become profitable enough to hire someone who is like them, or even better than them to do the job, they become hesitant because the idea of replacing themselves means they are not going to be needed and this terrifies them.

In this episode, we talk about the importance of setting up your business to serve you to your highest purpose and HOW to do that through upgrading yourself, your methodologies, and your belief operating system.

You get to discover a way to reset yourself and become a business owner rather than a business operator. You get to be that business owner who is free to experience all the best in life not to become someone who is a slave to their job.

The standards we set for ourselves guide us and allow us to achieve the results that we want and carry us to where we want to go.

To know your standards, you must know first who you are because your standard is part of your identity. If you know who you are and what you want to achieve, it will be easier for you to sustain your results and prove to yourself that you can hold yourself to these standards.

Be specific about the actions you are currently taking. You should know what your current standards are and if it is necessary, make new standards that are aligned with your behavior and identity.

A standard should be set based on how we know ourselves not based on what society dictates. Set a standard for your personal growth and development, get optics and support in order to help yourself achieve the result that you want.

Episode #208

Studies to date have shown that women are more likely to ask for divorce than men.

Why is that?

In this episode, we dive into what "hypergamy" is and how it is playing against you within your relationship without you even knowing.

Hypergamy is defined by google as "the action of marrying a spouse of a superior caste or social status than themselves".

In our society, women have a natural desire to uplevel to the best man possible. Yet, after marriage, many men let themselves go resulting in the woman no longer seeing their man as higher status.

Today we talk more about this issue and how we can avoid or use this hypergamy to our advantage.

Episode #206

Something we have learned in working with hundreds of men is that most men don’t know who they are.

They are not able to clearly define what a powerful man is for them and how a man should handle arguments in a relationship.

A piece of advice we give our men when it comes to their relationships is DO NOT try to win in an argument…instead try to connect, try to make peace, and talk it out.

When we turn to honest communication we will result in a loving and peaceful relationship.

A few things most men do that we advise to NOT do:

DO NOT punish your partner by giving her silent treatment or by giving her distance after an argument. This is an immature way to handle it.

DO NOT push her away just because you are hurt. We tend to show cold treatment and distance because we want them to come running for us and to validate our feelings. In return, the distance between you will grow over time and it will eventually make you miles apart emotionally.

If the argument is not communicated well, it can become cumulative. The fights will go deeper and you will argue more and more. Due to the resentment that was built up, triggers from the past can come up that have nothing to do with your relationship at all.

Relationships are one of the most important areas in our lives. If you have unresolved arguments in your relationship it causes a disadvantage for you. It will affect ALL areas of your life.

In this episode, we teach you how to deal with issues in your relationship in an efficient way that is effective and healthy.

Clean up your side of the street first. Take a look at yourself and be the perfect version of yourself, the powerful man that your woman chose to marry. By doing this, you are encouraging your partner to do the same.

Episode #205

Have you ever been in a heated argument with your partner?

In this episode, Doug and Tim discuss what to do after a heated argument with your partner and how to correct it.

One important thing to do first is to find out what triggered that situation to happen, or what triggered you to overreact.

In order to avoid overreacting, both parties must communicate clearly what they both want without feeling like a victim and without judgment.

Communicate out of love and respect because if you let your emotions and ego drive you during that situation, you will just end up hurting each other.

Take ownership & apologize for what happened and for overreacting. Tell your partner how you felt and what made you overreact and what you will do to rectify it.

Episode #204

As men, we tend to feel guilty when we have been missing out on moments with our loved ones due to working too much.

We ALSO feel guilty when we don’t feel like we’ve hit the vision of what we think we SHOULD be doing, especially, if what we’re doing is not serving us.

In this episode, we talk about how this feeling of guilt is caused by pressure from society. The demands that are placed on men by society turn them to work more and to be at work more. Men often fail to be present with their loved ones because they are working too much, resulting in a feeling of guilt and shame.

In order to change this, you need to have a self-check. If this is you, you may feel like you have lost your way and have been missing a lot of important things in your life.

Today, we teach you how to get back to what really matters to you and how to get rid of the things that aren’t serving you in order to clear yourself from guilt and shame.

Episode #203

Women nowadays don’t need a man to provide for them financially. They need someone who can provide for them emotionally, someone who is man enough for her to feel safe and secured. Someone who is present, who takes care of himself, and his health and knows how to step up.

As a man, we become very confident that our wife will never leave us since we think that providing financially is enough to make them stay.

We think that when we make more money, THAT is the time we will be able to enjoy life with our loved ones but we never feel like its enough, we always want to make more and as a result, we become slaves to our business.

In this episode, we talk about how providing is more than just giving money, it is emotionally also. If you want to have deep intimacy in your relationship then you need to prioritize it and make your business serve your life, not the other way around.

Women check out from the relationship because they feel that their partner left the relationship long before they do. Their husbands stopped becoming the man they married. The wife becomes a mother and the husband becomes a boy.

To keep the relationship it is important to become the man you know you are capable of becoming. Improve yourself, learn how to switch off from work, and be present in the relationship. Spend quality time with your wife, have good communication and you will become closer to each other.

Episode #202

Most men have the belief that to provide for his family is to provide “financially”. So as a result, he hustles and grinds every day to earn money but eventually loses himself in the process and doesn’t have anything more to give when he gets home.

He’s physically there but emotionally absent. Women tend to notice immediately if their partner is not doing well in the relationship but men, most of the time, will only figure it out later.

Men typically figure out there is an issue in the relationship AFTER he has already pushed his partner far away, has made many broken promises and the trust is gone.

In this episode, we talk about how men should be proactive and pay attention to the warning signs so they can do something and make a change while it’s not too late.

Be aware of what’s going on around you. If you are being tested by your partners and they are giving you the warning signs, be grateful because you now have the opportunity to make amends. Once you recognize the warning signs, take ownership of what you do as a man, and take massive action.

If you ignore the warning signs, you will pay the price and will have an even tougher journey later on because you failed to make things right when you had the chance.

In this episode, we talk about HOW to save your relationship and the steps to reconnecting with your spouse.

How can you improve your marriage?

Where do you need to practice to improve your game and deserve the success that you want?

We spend so much time looking at the market, stocks, real estate, and thinking about financial investment and the financial side of things, that we often forget what our number one asset is.

YOU are your number one asset so do not put your business first and your needs last.

Make an investment in YOURSELF for your own growth and become a better man. You are the only thing that people can't take away from you.

In this episode, we are going to dive deep into how you can improve your marriage by understanding that you are your number one asset.

Episode #194

Working with hundreds of men, we have found that many of them are struggling with their sex lives….but don’t talk about it with anyone.

How can you reignite the spark and really get your sex life back to where you want it to be?

That’s what we dive into in the episode…

Many men have this secret problem to the point in their marriage where they use PORN instead of having sex with their wives or partner.

It is really easy to go into that position because men are so used to working hard in their business or jobs, making decisions all day, to provide for their families.

So many people demanding so much of you that by the time you come home, you’re so exhausted. Hence, you don’t have the energy to connect with your wife.

In the same manner, your wife may also feel the same since she’s so exhausted from working around the house, taking care of your children, doing the chores, etc. It’s really a tough situation to be in.

When things go unsaid and things get avoided, it can easily create a void in your relationship and get out of sync, sexually. And before you know it, you easily turn to porn because that’s the easier option instead of you giving the effort to seduce your wife and make love with her.

There are three things you could do about it.

Either one, do nothing about it and settle or two, you leave the relationship because in your mind, the problem has gone way too far. But usually, what happens is that you just take the same problem to that new relationship and you end up leaving again. And option three, is you do the work. You see what’s going on and you address it.

What we talk about in this episode will not be an overnight fix. You get to remember that every relationship is like a bank account. You got to keep making deposits in order to make a withdraw. Invest in your relationship and take action. It’s never too late to do it unless you take action now.

In this episode, Tim and Doug share some ways they are seducing their partners.

As the man, you should be the one to take the lead and make your partner feel seen and desired. But…how exactly can you do that?

This is a topic that comes up often at The Alpha Reset.

The first key is that you should know your partner’s love language and give her love the way she wants to receive it…not just the way you like to give it. Prioritize spending quality time with her and make her feel provided for emotionally by the man she loves (you).

Focus on making her feel special by doing the things that will make her happy regardless if you don’t get anything in return. This shows that you are doing it out of commitment and a desire to uphold your role as a man in the relationship.

In this episode, we dive into the trap many men fall into…the transactional relationships. Seducing your partner shouldn’t be transactional but should be purely out of love. Showing both your strength AND vulnerability to your partner will make her feel more secure…deepening your connection on every level.

Episode #187

Do you feel like your wife lost her trust in you?

This is a common problem for most men.

They end up feeling confused because in their mind they are a good husband. Not cheating. Doing what they’re told “good husbands” do. Going to work and providing for the family.

How can a wife lose her trust for her husband when he is doing all of these things?

Well, it is really simple.

Ask yourself this…how many times did you say you’re going to be there on your special occasion, or that you’re going to pick up the kids from school, or that you’re coming home for dinner and then for whatever reason…you didn’t do it?

Did a few (or many) times come to mind?

These may seem like little things to you that don’t matter in the scheme of life, but these pile up over time and end up chipping away at the trust she has with you.

And the sad thing is, this one thing has killed a ton of relationships.

If this feels familiar to you and you want to prevent this from happening, be the man of your word. Talk to your wife about it. Stop promising and start acting.

What will you feel when someone says something about you being a horrible businessman or being a crappy husband?

What would you be scared of people thinking about you?

In this episode, we talk about the guilt and shame that many of us feel when we aren't "on track". How there is a stigma around falling "off track" because as men, we feel we should be strong and tough enough to do everything on our list and that we should be perfect.

Because of this pressure we have all put on ourselves, we refuse to let anyone know when we're struggling or "off-track".

We don't want to ruin the image that we have put on for others.

Let us tell you something...

ALL men are struggling with something.

When you're in the struggle, the easiest way to lighten the load within yourself is to reach out and be honest.

Nobody is perfect.

It is an effective tool to have people around you whom you can have these conversations with.

Stop pretending someone you are not.

You don't need to hide.

When someone says you are not man enough or you are not a good husband and it triggers you, TAKE ACTION.

This is where the transformation lies.

Take an action that will bridge the gap between what your identity is and where you are currently.

Not taking action is preventing you from your greatness and is preventing you from your potential.

The time to step up is NOW.

As men, it's common for us to get stuck in our own tunnel vision...

...but when we take a step back and apply the tools we talk about in this episode, it becomes EASIER to step back into clarity + flow, allowing you to experience life from a more POWERFUL space.

There is no better time than now to reflect on your "WHY'S" and gain more clarity around what matters to you most.

Episode #178

Do you know what it's like to be in a relationship with you?

Think about that for a moment.

Unless you have asked your loved ones or they have told you...we don't actually know what it is like to be in a relationship with us.

Oftentimes we think we are showing up as one way, but in reality, a completely different energy is present.

In this episode, Tim and Doug will talk about what their loved ones have to say to this question of "What is it like to be in a relationship with them?".

The answers typically hold the goldmine to the deep inner work we get to do to experience a massive transformation.

If you are looking to make a change in your life, this episode is a great start....all you have to do is press play!

Don't let this precious time where you're just at home with your wife passed by without asking and reflecting about this magic question.

Episode #177

There are many times in our life where we get uneasy, angry, frustrated and depressed...

And what we usually do is avoid facing it.

We tend to transfer the frustrated energy to other things or people we have relationships with.

We stress eat, we drink alcohol, we don't go to the gym, we watch porn, or we get angry with our wives with no valid reason, etc.

How many of us are guilty of this?

How does it feel after doing these things?

Most men we talk to say it doesn't feel good...in fact it feels worse than before they did anything.

In this episode, we talk about how to find inspiration in times of chaos.

How to LEAN INTO IT + be with it until the unrest turns into inspiration...

And heaviness turns into lightness...

Episode #176

In order to become a powerful man, you should understand where you are in order to navigate your way through.

If not, it will be difficult for you to move, leaving you stuck in the darkness.

When you begin to recognize that you are experiencing the 5 agonies, you then become able to shift it into the 5 freedoms.

As men, we are constantly sold on this idea of “power” in the form of external power. But the truth is, both external and internal power and strength are important.

It takes courage to break the chain of society and take a stand for what really matters to you. The courage and vulnerability to be able to accept what situation you are in and transform your greatest pain into your greatest power.

We tend to believe that to be a man we have to earn money, but while doing what we are told to do we are not achieving our dreams but somebody else’s dream.

We feel empty in spite of the achievements and approvals we get from society because we know within us that these are just false success and these don’t really matter to us.

Reconnect to your instinct, break the chains of the society, stand firm to what is really important to you and allow it to flow through you. This will show in your energy, peace, clarity, and power.

What you will learn in this episode:

How to break the chains of society
The importance of standing firm in what you believe
How to become a powerful man without sacrificing your dreams and happiness
How to transform your greatest pain into the greatest power
How to recognize and accept what situation we are into in order for us to navigate our path

Episode #175

There are 5 territories of your life that when prioritized correctly will lead to success in everything you do. The 5 territories include self, health, wealth and relationships and business.

The number one mistake men make is prioritizing business as our foundational territory. This is common as we are taught that as men we should provide for our family. We hustle to make money in order to provide but we often forget that we should also provide emotionally.

While we are so focused on our first priority – business – we seldom make time for our loved ones because often times we have no energy left.

We also forget to take care of ourselves, our health is often taken for granted because we fail to turn off from the hustle that we give our business.

In this episode, we dive deep into society’s definition of how to be a man and what it looks like to create our OWN identity by investing in things that could improve our self, our health, and our relationships.

What you will learn in this episode:

Making ourselves the top priority
Creating your own identity
Identifying what really matters to you
Turn off from all the hustle and make time and invest in the things that could improve yourself and your relationships

Do you often think you have the answers?

When problems occur do you believe you have everything you need to sidestep them?

Are you good at justifying things?

Many of the men we work with are too smart for their own good and have the tendency to rationalize everything.

They can come up with ANY excuse just to be safe.

But know this...you can be safe AND miserable at the same time.

In this episode, we explore where you are making up excuses and using your intellect as a way to PROTECT yourself rather than stepping UP into a life we all know you deserve.

Episode #171

Staying committed.

Two words. Easy to remember but very difficult to apply in our daily life.

How many times do we switch from one task to another?

How many times do we promise to ourselves to do something but after some time we turn away, find another thing to do, commit to it and then stop, and then turn away again, and the cycle goes on?

If you want to stay committed to something, you've got to be anchored to something that is stationary.

Something that is stable or not going to move, whether it's your faith, your religion, your morning routine, or whatever it is.

Anchor yourself to something that doesn't change.

Then go deep.

Follow a path and take it down to the very end.

Make sure you're not avoiding the important.

Take some time for your self.

Take some time to reflect and take the time to take action.

Episode #170

Are you serving your higher purpose?

Are you really going after it or are you just playing a role in somebody else's story?

Are you living your life to the fullest...

or are you just living to survive every day?

If the answer is NO, then think about this...

"The way in which you penetrate the world is the same way in which you'll penetrate your woman or your business."

Most men that we talk to have given a lot of their passion and their hobbies to invest more time in their business or their work.

But in the process of that, 10, 15 or 20 years, life becomes all about work and less about their children and their woman.

Don't fall into this trap.

If you want to have a successful marriage and a successful business, then it's crucial you remember your passion and do the things you love.

Doing what you love most gives you energy and the wisdom on how you manage your business and your marriage.

Be selfish sometimes.

Give your self a break. Do what you're passionate about and the rest will work itself out.

Are there any areas in your life where you feel like you're not doing as well as you could?

Perhaps an area where you feel shame?

Most men we work with have shame deeply rooted in major areas of their life like their business, their relationships, and their health.

The sneaky thing with shame is that is STOPS us from taking action.

It STOPS us from making the changes that we want.

And it KEPPS us in this cycle of being where we say we don't want to be....

Are you a man of your word?

Let that question sink in...

Many men we talk to lead a similar lifestyle where they have made work their number 1 priority.

And yet, they are coming home late, feeling a disconnect with their wife and kids, and are slowly becoming men who those around them can no longer rely on.

They say they will show up for their family's events and yet more often than not they don't stick to their word.

There always seems to be a meeting, a client, or a deadline that appears, forcing them to let down those around them once again.

The time to change that narrative and become a man of integrity is now.

Episode #152

We live in a society where it is being taught that money can solve everything. As a man, we think that we need to make more money to make our marriage or relationship succeed. We become addicted to work because we always feel that the money we’re making is not enough so we grind more, thus leaving us never satisfied.

When we’re too focused on making money, we forget to switch off and work even more when we get home. We tend to forget our responsibilities to our partner other than making money which results in creating a gap in the relationship.

The marriage then begins to break because the man loses himself along the way. He identified himself as a businessman or business owner and that became his identity. Since he thinks that it’s his identity, it is difficult for him to switch off and the gap in the relationship becomes bigger and bigger until you don’t know your wife anymore and even yourself.

In this episode, we talk about how to switch off from work, reclaim your identity and know who you really are. We also talk about the importance of knowing who your wife is, not the woman you married but who she is becoming in the relationship.

Episode #139

Opening the year right isn't an easy task, especially, if you're starting it with low self-confidence.

So, how can you keep your confidence high when the things you're expecting don't seem to fall into place?

Remember this...

Things may be going against you but if you're still being congruent with who you are, regardless of what's going on outside, you can keep your confidence high.

One tip that we suggest is to have someone around that will support you. Sometimes you need to borrow confidence from someone who believes in you. Make it a priority to surround yourself with people that have confidence in you.

And most importantly...always think about who you REALLY are and act in alignment with that.

Do you ever feel like there is something missing?

You've done all you've been told you're supposed to do. You've worked hard. You started a business. You bring home money for the family. You are seen as an expert in your field, and yet...

something is missing.

You can't put your finger on it, but you can't shake the feeling that this isn't how it's supposed to feel.

You find yourself asking "is this all there is?" "Is this how it's supposed to feel?" The answer is no. There is so much more.

YOU are so much more. You just haven't been shown the tools to access it...yet.

We often feel unfulfilled even after all the achievements that we already have. It never satisfies us. We've already reached the destination but we still feel something is missing.

The feeling of unfulfillment will result in continuous chasing. You keep on chasing without knowing what you really want.

You must know first who you are, what you really want. Stop comparing yourself to other people and be secured about yourself.

We often forget that the journey is more important than the destination. Reflect, learn and enjoy the journey because enjoying the journey and understanding who you are and what you want is what will give you fulfillment.

The difference between achievement and fulfillment
Importance of knowing who you are and what you want

Episode #133

Do you argue a lot with your wife or your partner?

Are you tired of arguing with her?

Typically women argue to connect, while men argue to win which is why it's very difficult to win in an argument with your wife.

Persuasive communication is the key to avoid being the bad cop in the conversation. If you do this, you will be able to not only get what you want in that situation but also get connection and intimacy with your partner during the communication.

As a man, it is very more important that you validate what your partner feels, make her understand that she is your priority and that you don't want her to feel otherwise.

Hold your ground and communicate calmly. State what you don't want and what you do want in that situation but at the same time, understand what outcome she wants in that situation so that she will feel seen, heard and understood.

In order for you to be able to hold your ground in these situations, you must have a strong foundation first. Focus on yourself, know who you are as a man, and know that there is a powerful man inside you.

What you will learn in this episode:

The importance of having a strong foundation and being secure about yourself as a man.
The importance of validating your wife's feelings and how.

Episode #132

Women nowadays don't need a man to provide for them financially. They need someone who can provide for them emotionally, someone who is man enough for her to feel safe and secured. Someone who is present, who takes care of himself, and his health and knows how to step up.

As a man, we become very much confident that our wife will never leave us since we think that providing financially is enough to make them stay.

We think that when we make more money, THAT is the time we will be able to enjoy life with our loved ones but we never feel like its enough, we always want to make more and as a result, we become slaves to our business.

In this episode, we talk about how providing is more than just giving money, it is emotionally also. If you want to have deep intimacy in your relationship then you need to prioritize it and make your business serve your life, not the other way around.

Women check out from the relationship because they feel that their partner left the relationship long before they do. Their husbands stopped becoming the man they married. The wife becomes a mother and the husband becomes a boy.

To keep the relationship it is important to become the man you know you are capable of becoming. Improve yourself, learn how to switch off from work and be present in the relationship. Spend quality time with your wife, have good communication and you will become closer to each other.

In this episode you will learn :

The importance of being present in the relationship both physically and emotionally
What will make her stay in the relationship
The importance of proper communication in the relationship

We think that we need to be focused on making money, in our business because we are told that when we have the money THAT'S when we can enjoy life with our family, and THAT'S when we'll have time for them and be present for them.

In reality, when we make more money we continuously want for more until we realize that we already missed the most important things in life which is the opportunity to build a connection with our family and enjoy simple things with them.

Can you relate?

As business leaders, we must also lead our own lives. We get to prioritize being a role model to our kids and being someone who prioritizes family over business.

Don't wait until you reach the destination before you enjoy and have fun with yourself and with your family. Choose to enjoy the journey now and have fun along the way so that when you reach your destination there will be no regrets.

Episode #130

Every relationship book, podcast, or video you consume tells you communication is key. That to get through your problems with your partner...you have to talk about it. But every time you try to talk to her, it seems like you end up arguing.

The good news is....there is another way.

When we have problems in the relationship, talking about it sometimes will just make the situation even worse. As a man, we feel that it is an attack on our capabilities to provide and as a man.

It is difficult for us to communicate and talk about it because we don't understand what's going on inside us.

Get out of that situation by focusing on building the connection first with yourself so that you will be able to build connection with your wife.

You should reset and reclaim. Know yourself, understand what's going on inside you so that it will be easier to understand what your partner really needs from you.

Have fun with yourself so that you will be able to have fun with your partner. Build a deeper connection with yourself and your wife and as a result, communication will become a lot easier.

When was the last time you took your wife on a date?

Without actively dating your wife, you won't be able to build and grow a deeper connection in the relationship.

Typically, we become too busy making money to provide all the needs of our family that we often forget to plan a date night with our wife. This will often result in feeling guilty for not being able to give the attention that our partner needs, which is why we resort to an alternative. We buy expensive gifts for her in order to make up for those missed date nights but that's not a true connection she's looking for. Because of this, the disconnection becomes bigger and soon you will realize that your relationship is slowing drifting apart.

In this episode, we talk about how to work on yourself to have the energy you need to truly nurture your relationship. Prioritize your relationship with your wife. Date her the way you dated her even before your marriage and make her feel special.

The standards we set for ourselves guide us and allow us to achieve the results that we want and carry us to where we want to go.

Be specific about the actions you are currently taking. You should know what your current standards are and if it is necessary, make new standards that are aligned with your behavior and identity.

Our society teaches us that in order to solve the problems in our marriage we should go through counseling or therapy and talk things out...but some people don't want to talk about it because it just brings more weight to the problem.

We have good news...there is another way to turn things around.

The first step in saving your marriage without talking about it is becoming raw and honest with yourself. Acknowledge that there is a problem in your marriage and stop pretending that everything is working fine.

Second, focus on improving YOURSELF instead of criticizing your partner. Discover yourself as a man and know your standards.

We all grew up differently. Our expectations are different from each other because of our upbringing or how we are programmed while growing up.

Instead of pointing out the flaws of your partner, focus on cleaning your side of the street first. Stop comparing your decision making to hers, your problems to hers, your day with hers because it will just create disconnection within the relationship.

Focus on your individual selves first, accept each other's craziness in order for you to work on your relationship as a couple.

Lastly, leave the fighting mentality at work, decompress and transition into a family man. Think about how you will step up to not only save the marriage but to take the relationship to the next level.

In this episode you will learn:

How to save a marriage without talking about it
The importance of cleaning your side of the street first and what that looks like.

Episode #124

In this episode Tim & Doug one of the most common issues they encounter in The Activation Method. Men who feel they need to choose between their marriage or their business.

In another open and honest discussion, Tim & Doug share their thoughts on what they describe as one of the most common issues faced by men across the business world today. However, it’s not something anyone needs to go through, what happens if you replace the word ‘or’ with the word ‘and’ in this scenario, how does that life look to you?

This is something that is very possible but it requires a mindset shift and you being open and honest with yourself about who you are, how you feel and where you want to be in life.

Tim shares a story of a man he spoke to who was facing this exact issue. He felt the need, as a man to make his wife feel safe and secure and his way of doing this was earning money. This is a common alpha male natural instinct. However, things change when his wife dropped the bombshell that she felt more secure when he was unemployed and they were financially insecure. What his wife wanted and what he thought she wanted were two completely different things.

Are you building your dream and your dream alone or are you including your wife and/or family?

Doug shares a practice he carries out with his family when planning for his business which raises the importance of including your partner in business decisions you make, not necessarily day to day decisions but outlooks and how it will affect your personal life. Is there really any point in working every hour you can in order to make extra money if it means you don’t have the time to enjoy with your family

There is a balance to be had… you need to start working smarter not harder and you can start to do it right now!

Finally, Tim & Doug address the thought that some people are hiding from their marriage through their work. If you are asking yourself to choose between your marriage and your business, there is likely to be a deeper reason why you are not putting your marriage first because you are not being fulfilled, this is something you can address and fix to live a more successful and fulfilling life.

Episode #123

Enjoy the Journey!

How often do you hear that phrase, life is a journey and it needs to be enjoyed? However, being involved in a battle or war isn’t an enjoyable experience.

In this episode, Tim & Doug present another deep discussion about what it truly means to become a powerful man and they put the case forward for ditching the idea of a physical, tough, war-like alpha male in favor of a calm, quietly confident, self-assured man as being the one we should aspire to.

As men, we are so often wired to feel like we should go to war. We should treat everything like a battle that we need to win. This mentality comes from our ancestors having to fight and battle to stay alive and even most recently in the world wars when men were recruited to go to war for their country. Still, to this day, there is a belief among many that being a man means going to war and winning a battle. Even as a metaphor, this can be a dangerous way to view life. What are we really telling ourselves if this is the language we use and the outlook we have?

Tim & Doug look at what it actually means to go to war. Pain, suffering, hurt, anger - these are the emotions associated with war and these will be the emotions you will encounter if you approach life like a battle or a war.

The most successful men are more often not the ones beating their chests the hardest. We have all seen people who shout the loudest about their success but these are also the people who get into more disagreements, the ones who fail to take responsibility, the ones who pass the buck. This is because they are in battle mode and they are most likely, extremely insecure. Tim and Doug both relate to moving from this mindset to a more calm, relaxed and confident mindset and what it did for their lives.

If you take yourself out of battle mode, it’s the first step to being calm, confident and in a state of flow. You don’t need anyone else’s approval to live the life you want and you can live a much more fulfilling and successful life by changing your mentality to be more positive. You don’t need to go to war.

Things you will discover in this episode:

How the language we use has a direct effect on our subconscious and how we operate
How being calm can improve your behavior and outcomes
How the idea of battles and wars impacts our belief systems
Why it’s time to ditch the cliche physical, tough, alpha male in favor of the calm self-assured man
Why calm is an incredibly strong inner strength
Why the loudest isn’t always the best
An immediate, actionable step to being a more relaxed, confident man

Are you a certified coffee addict or an alcohol lover?

In this episode, Doug shares his personal experience and journey with coffee & alcohol and why you might want to consider limiting your consumption.

Reducing the intake of caffeine and alcohol or totally getting rid of both could make a great impact on your life especially in terms of large decision making and how you perform in your business.

Being dependent on coffee & alcohol tends to make people more unstable and anxious all the time. It also reduces your alpha brain waves that you need most when it comes to decision making , especially for high-performing men.

One way to increase your alpha brain waves is by reducing your caffeine and alcohol intake. It will make you less anxious, more present, more centered and you will achieve your flow state as a powerful man.

It is difficult for most people to give up these two but in order to do it, you can try using coffee and alcohol alternatives just to get the stimuli that you need and as a result, you will become more focused and in your flow state more often.

What you will learn in this episode:

The negative effects of being dependent on alcohol and caffeine
The importance of being in your flow state
How to become more centered and focused
How to slowly get rid of or reduce the consumption of alcohol and caffeine

We live in a society where it is being taught that money can solve everything. As a man, we think that we need to make more money to make our marriage or relationship going. We become addicted to work because we always feel that the money we're making is not enough so we grind more, thus leaving us never satisfied.

When we're too focused on making money, we forget to switch off and work even more when we get home. We tend to forget our responsibilities to our partner other than making money which results in creating a gap in the relationship.

The marriage then begins to break because the man loses himself along the way. He identified himself as a businessman or business owner and that became his identity. Since he thinks that it's his identity, it is difficult for him to switch off and the gap in the relationship becomes bigger and bigger until you don't know your wife anymore and even yourself.

In this episode, we talk about how to switch off from work, reclaim your identity and know who you really are. We also talk about the importance of knowing who your wife is, not the woman you married but who she is becoming in the relationship.

In this episode you will learn :

The importance of knowing when to switch off from work
How to prevent a marriage from breaking down
The importance of knowing and reclaiming your true identity

Episode #117

In this episode, Tim shares a very personal topic of how his extended family is littered with suicide and broken down relationships due to demons of the past being handed down through generations. Tim explains how he overcame the demons in his immediate family and discusses the wider picture of how this generation needs to step up to our demons by having conversations and taking responsibility.

Mental health among young people is at an all-time low. Tim & Doug try to trace why so many people can relate to having being passed on the demons of their parents and present a fascinating theory of how what it meant to be a man was very different in previous generations and this has had a long-lasting effect that is taking its toll on the young people of this generation.

Central to not wanting to share demons with those closest to us seems to be the old attitude and wiring we have of not to air our dirty laundry, always put on a brave face and the perception that things are great. This has been our instinct for many generations and continues to be so if you look at things like social media where we continue to share our highlights and positivity in a somewhat false and insecure manner.

Tim shares an experiment he put into action of trying to connect with everybody he came into contact with and how amazed he was at how much it put people on edge.

Tim & Doug explain how they have helped so many men face their demons, because we are wired to fear our demons and ignore them it’s often easier for people to do nothing about it but the truth is that the demons are never as bad as they seem and the answer lies in communicating and asking for help.

What you will learn in this episode:

How suppressed demons can destroy relationships, business, friendships and lives of the next generation.
How to start being honest with yourself and building the strength to share with others.
Understanding how we all have demons inside of us.
How bad we have become at communicating properly.
Why so many of us are disconnected and driven by fear.

Episode #114

Have you ever had the experience of your wife complaining about you but you have no idea where she's coming from?

You might even think, "she has nothing to complain about!".

You might not recognize that you've been consumed by your work lately, and she keeps complaining because what she really wants is your time and your attention.

As a result, she has had to step into the alpha role and take control of the relationship to get the attention that she needs. She now gets your attention by demanding things from you...and because you are unaware of what she really needs, you will end up feeling rejected for not being able to give it to her.

One thing we talk about in this episode is how to go through the different levels of love languages, how to understand your partner's love language and how your partner wants to receive it and vice versa.

The first step is having an honest conversation with each other for clarity and avoid the feeling of being rejected.

You then get to step it up and regularly ask her how the relationship is going for her....and LISTEN. Listen to what's working for her and what isn't. Pay attention to what she feels need to be improved and give her the space to speak without judgment and without rejection.

Episode #113

Do you feel like your wife lost her trust in you?

This is a common problem for most men.

They end up feeling confused because in their mind they are a good husband. Not cheating. Doing what they're told "good husbands" do. Going to work and providing for the family.

How can a wife lose her trust for her husband when he is doing all of these things?

Well, it is really simple.

Ask yourself this...how many times did you say you’re going to be there on your special occasion, or that you’re going to pick up the kids from school, or that you’re coming home for dinner and then for whatever reason...you didn’t do it?

Did a few (or many) times come to mind?

These may seem like little things to you that don't matter in the scheme of life, but these pile up over time and end up chipping away at the trust she has with you.

And the sad thing is, this one thing has killed a ton of relationships.

If this feels familiar to you and you want to prevent this from happening, be the man of your word. Talk to your wife about it. Stop promising and start acting.

What you will learn in this episode:

How to get your wife’s trust back
The importance of honoring your word
The importance of resetting and moving forward

Episode #112

Do you feel like things aren't working for you?

Do you have this desire to improve how you are leading your life?

This is something we hear from men all the time, and the answer is simple - whether it's for business or personal, you need to start using a different methodology.

Think of it this way, before you can learn the tactics and the strategies to improve your business, your relationship, etc, you MUST start with yourself.

You need to rediscover yourself, let go of the stresses, get rid of the things that aren't serving you and change your mindset.

By doing this, you will have more clarity, more direction, and more purpose and as a result, those around you will follow too.

Assess what areas of your life aren't working out for you and DO SOMETHING. Pay attention to the warning signs, try a system that will work for you, invest in your personal development and level up your game.

In this episode you will learn:

The necessity of improving yourself before improving your business or relationship

Episode #111

Do you feel disconnected from your loved ones?

Oftentimes we fail to recognize that we are disconnected from our loved ones and have lost intimacy with our partners until its too late. When we fail to pay attention to the warning signs, we end up getting blindsided when our partners tell us they're unhappy.

Something many men don't realize is that most women are looking for a man they can rely on and who gives them comfort. When you become consumed with your business, you sacrifice intimacy and connection within the relationship. You tend to stop being the man your wife married in the first place.

To navigate this, start with leadership. Show her how you are leading yourself. Be the man who knows who he is and what he wants. Be a man who is responsible for his own self, needs, and desires so she can trust you and know that she has a man beside her who can stand his ground and she will be able to feel secure.

In this episode you will learn :

How to bring intimacy in your relationship to the next level
The importance of honoring your identity
How we lose ourselves while building our business
How we can bring back the connection with our loved ones

Pele, one of the greatest players of all-time in the sport of soccer, is known for his spectacular abilities to play the sport. What most people didn't know is that behind every spectacle, Pele mastered the basics first.

Learning the basics is what most people ignore doing in every aspect of life, not just in sports. We see the "highlight reel" of not just athletes, but in business, personal lives, etc. and we forget that each "highlight reel" came from countless hours working on the basics.

Getting your basics in place makes the foundation of your business stronger and a stronger foundation must be prioritized before moving to anything else. Big shifts happen as a result of getting your basics mastered. If your foundation is not strong enough it will produce chaos in your business and you will not be able to lead your day but the day will then lead you because you will easily lose control.

In this episode, we talk about developing a routine that you can turn to and rely on so you can follow through easily and enjoy the rest of your day with your family and loved ones.

In order to put all the basics in place, it should start with you. Find a basic routine that works for you and take control of the first few moments of your day. Start your day with a morning routine and you will be able to finish the day smoothly because the basics are all in place.

In this episode you will learn:

Most people have experienced a struggling relationship or a struggling marriage. In this episode, we dive deep into taking extreme ownership and doing something to make a change.

The first thing to do, is to pay attention to the signs and complaints of your partner. Oftentimes, we see the signs, but we put on a mask and avoid them completely. Stop lying to yourself and acknowledge the problems that are showing up.

If you know that you need to do something and you know that you don't want to live in desperation anymore then you have to take massive action.

If you know that you can do better in your relationship, money and time is not an excuse. You can always make time, you just have to know your priorities.

Most business owners start their business to make money and have more freedom in their life but they end up becoming a slave to their business.

Most business owners are perceived as being successful, charismatic, and leaders within their business but when you take a look into their personal lives & relationships, they're falling short. Their life has become about them serving their business and not the other way around.

They typically hold the belief that nobody could replace them. And when they become profitable enough to hire someone who is like them, or even better than them to do the job, they become hesitate because the idea of replacing themselves means they are not going to be needed and this terrifies them.

Episode #106

In a relationship, polar opposites usually work well together. The wife who is naturally feminine needs her partner or husband to be in his alpha or masculine state.

As the relationship progresses, women tend to test their partner's masculinity, how secure and how grounded he is as a man. If you fail that test by getting triggered, she will feel insecure and she will become more alpha to get that security she needs.

During these tests as a man, there will be times when you succumb to the pressure and you become more beta which requires her to become more alpha in the relationship. You choose to become beta because you think its easier that way to just follow what she wants than arguing with her.

You have individual needs in the relationship but in order to meet each other's needs, you have to communicate and cooperate with each other.

In this episode, we dive deep into HOW exactly to do that.

To open up healthy communication you must first recognize her and validate her needs so that she can feel seen and heard.

After that, you can now express your needs and relate them to her. Offer a solution but ask her to cooperate for you to achieve it together.

You then get to reclaim your natural masculine state. In order to reclaim it, you must first regain the trust of your partner. Show her that you honor your word, you can control your own natural state, you can take a stand and she can rely on you.

This is what it looks like to become an alpha in the relationship and show your masculinity.

You get to be firm about your decisions and actions
You get to be decisive by knowing what you want and actually do what you say you're going to do.
You get to have a high level of integrity.

If you have all of those masculine elements above, your partner will then fall gently into her natural feminine state.

When polarization fades away, this will become lacking in your relationship. Reset your natural masculinity and regain the polarity in the relationship.

In this episode you will learn:

How to reclaim your masculinity
Importance of polarization in the relationship
Importance of integrity and being able to take a stand
Importance of communication and cooperation in solving the problem

Have you ever felt like you were just a paycheck?

Like you're just living to go to work, earn money, come home to do things around the house, fix things, lift heavy stuff and then go back to work and repeat the process?

As men, we have historically held the identity of being the provider.

Typically, we are the ones who go to work to earn money and provide for our families in the aspect of finance. Because of this, we end up having to skip some of the special events with our families.

We miss out on the memories of our child's music recital or graduation, a field trip, or maybe our child got into trouble and we're not there to hear their side of the story and provide them with guidance.

And because we missed all of these events, we end up feeling like a stranger in our own homes. We end up feeling that our wives have a deeper connection with our child because we are missing out on the experiences.

Is this something you can relate to?

If you found yourself in this situation, what would you do?

Would you naturally resort to feeling like a victim? Or will you step up, take ownership and be the powerful man that you are?

Remember this, you will always have a choice.

What you will learn in this episode:

The three things to do to stop feeling like a stranger in your own home
The importance of taking ownership

Episode #103

Business leaders complain regularly about underperforming staff BUT the way they perform reflects what kind of leader YOU are to THEM.

Let that sink in...

If your staff is underperforming, then typically, it is because you have trained them to work that way. They work and treat you the way you have treated them and by the standards, you have set.

If you don't allow your staff to execute certain tasks, then they will have no chance to prove to you what they're capable of.

The truth is, most business owners we talk to, don't trust their staff and are afraid that the business might fail so they do all the work by themselves and then complain of the low productivity of their staff later on.

Business owners should develop themselves as an investment. Leadership training hones your leadership skills so that you can also develop your staff to increase their productivity.

You must realize that the solution to your problem is YOURSELF as a leader. When you become realigned with yourself and your purpose and step up as a leader, everybody else steps up and your business will grow exponentially as a result.

What you will learn in this episode:

The importance of being the right leader
The importance of trusting your staff
The importance of having a mindset that it's all on you

We feel guilty when we feel that we've been missing out on moments with our loved ones due to working too much.

We ALSO feel guilty when we don't feel like we've hit the vision of what we think we SHOULD be doing, especially, if what we're doing is not serving us.

In this episode, we talk about how this feeling of guilt is caused by pressure from society. The demands that are placed on men by society turn them to work more and to be at work more. Men often fail to be present with their loved ones because they are working too much, resulting in a feeling of guilt and shame.

In order to change this, you need to have a self-check. If this is you, you may feel like you have lost your way and have been missing a lot of important things in your life.

In this episode, we teach you how to get back to what really matters to you and how to get rid of the things that aren't serving you in order to clear yourself from guilt and shame.

In this episode you will learn:

How to eliminate the guilt and shame from working too much
The importance of proper communication with your loved ones

Episode #101

Working with hundreds of men, we have found that many of them are struggling with their sex lives....but don't talk about it with anyone.

How can you reignite the spark and really get your sex life back to where you want it to be?

That's what we dive into in the episode...

Many men have this secret problem to the point in their marriage where they use PORN instead of having sex with their wives or partner.

It is really easy to go into that position because men are so used to working hard in their business or jobs, making decisions all day, to provide for their families.

So many people demanding so much of you that by the time you come home, you're so exhausted. Hence, you don't have the energy to connect with your wife.

In the same manner, your wife may also feel the same since she's so exhausted from working around the house, taking care of your children, doing the chores, etc. It's really a tough situation to be in.

When things go unsaid and things get avoided, it can easily create a void in your relationship and get out of sync, sexually. And before you know it, you easily turn to porn because that's the easier option instead of you giving the effort to seduce your wife and make love with her.

There are three things you could do about it.

Either one, do nothing about it and settle or two, you leave the relationship because in your mind, the problem has gone way too far. But usually, what happens is that you just take the same problem to that new relationship and you end up leaving again. And option three, is you do the work. You see what's going on and you address it.

What we talk about in this episode will not be an overnight fix. You get to remember that every relationship is like a bank account. You got to keep making deposits in order to make a withdraw. Invest in your relationship and take action. It's never too late to do it unless you take action now.

What you will learn in this episode:

How to reignite your sex life
The importance of addressing the issue immediately
The importance of being present in the relationship without expecting anything in return
The importance of having a regular "You and Me" time

Episode #99

It is easier to turn to porn than plan a date night and be intimate with your spouse.

Have you found yourself doing this?

Many men do...

You may or may not realize it, but by doing this, you are creating distance in the relationship.

This leak of energy creates a hole in the relationship and this hole becomes bigger until it becomes irreparable.

This problem typically stems from how a man is prioritizing the elements of his life. Typically a man will prioritize business, then wealth then relationships, then health, and then lastly, self.

In this scenario, so much energy gets used for business & wealth that there is nothing left for yourself and your relationship...which is why it becomes so much easier to turn to porn.

In this episode, we talk about the importance of prioritizing yourself, your health and your relationship before wealth and business.

This one shift will reignite your relationship with your spouse because you will have so much more energy to give. Your business will also continue to grow by putting in LESS effort because you already built a strong foundation.

In this episode you will learn:

How to prioritize territories
Where to invest your energy
What made a man turn to porn

Episode #96

Something we have learned in working with hundreds of men is that most men don’t know who they are.

They are not able to clearly define what a powerful man is for them and how a man should handle arguments in a relationship.

A piece of advice we give our men when it comes to their relationships is DO NOT try to win in an argument...instead try to connect, try to make peace and talk it out.

When we turn honest communication we will result in a loving and peaceful relationship.

A few things most men do that we advise to NOT do:

DO NOT punish your partner by giving her silent treatment or by giving distance after an argument. This is an immature way to handle it.

DO NOT push her away just because you are hurt. We tend to show cold treatment and distance because we want them to come running for us and to validate our feelings. In return, the distance between you will grow over time and it will eventually make you miles apart emotionally.

If the argument is not communicated well, it can become cumulative. The fights will go deeper and you will argue more and more. Due to the resentment that was built up, triggers from the past can come up that have nothing to do with your relationship at all.

Relationships are one of the most important areas in our lives. If you have unresolved arguments in the relationship it causes a disadvantage for you. It will affect all areas of your life, how you operate, you cannot be at peace and you’re going to take that everywhere.

In this episode, we teach you how to deal with issues in your relationship in an efficient way that is effective and healthy.

Clean up your side of the street first. Take a look at yourself and be the perfect version of yourself, the powerful man that your woman chose to marry. By doing this, you are encouraging your partner to do the same.

In this episode you will learn:

How a powerful man efficiently handles arguments in a relationship
The importance of peaceful communication in your relationship
The importance of resolving issues real-time
The effects of having unresolved arguments in your everyday life
What causes relationship problems to build up

If you know someone who is suffering, maybe a friend or a loved one or a family member, to the extent of him or her thinking of committing suicide, what could you do to help?

This is a question many men ask us and we have asked ourselves often.

In order to help someone, you MUST have a support structure in place. A support system where others are willing to be raw and authentic and share more of who they are and what's going on with their lives.

If we are open and authentic we give permission to other people to do the same.

If somebody is having a hard time and reaches out to you, welcome them and help them. Let them feel that you actually care for them and you are there for them. Show them that you want to help them and give them space to unload. Have an ear for them and respect everything they say.

If this person thinks that it's the end for him and that there is no other way for him to get through his situation, encourage them that there is still another way. He might not be able to see it right now, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Give them hope of the future or better tomorrow. Remind them of the people that love them.

Help them realize that there is always someone who went through the same situation as them who will guide them in overcoming the situation they are in right now.

Every problem has a solution, there is always an answer to any question, we just need to reach out and ask for help.

It is also important to do a follow-up. Check on them from time to time and give them reassurance. Be consistent and create a structure to continuously support that person.

What you will learn in this episode:

How to help someone who is thinking of committing suicide
How to help someone suffering
The importance of having a support structure
The importance of being authentic
The importance of giving a person space to release his or her deepest sorrows

In this episode, we will get to know more about Arthur Magoulianiti, one of the coahes of The Powerfulman Man. Learn from his life's struggles and apply it to yours.

Sometimes, no matter how successful we are and how much money we make, we still feel the void and the emptiness inside us. We are always in a situation where in we think that we need to prove ourselves more. We want transformation and improvement but we do not know where to start and how to do it. Another thing that hinders us from doing so is that we are afraid that people around us might judge us.

In order to have that change you want in your life, you should be bold enough and take responsibility of your life. Fix what is happening inside you in order you to realize that you are good enough and you’ll eventually find that fulfillment that you need in life.

Heal yourself and all that emptiness inside you by surrounding yourself with the right people and seek experts that will give you the answers and will support you throughout your transformation journey. Reach out and be involved in personal development workshops like the Alpha Reset wherein you will be with a team of powerful men that will see you as who you are without judgment.

Be a powerful man and show up in a big way, do the real work and get a massive result. We don’t need too much information in our heads, what we need is a massive transformation. Don’t keep silent hoping that someday things are going to change. It is good that you have that vision but what’s more important is having a vision and doing the action.

Don’t suffer another day in silence hoping things will get better. Unless you change what you do or how you do it, things won’t get better.

Episode #93

Having a perfect date night is something that men aim for. And let us tell you....planning it is really a challenge!

Expectation versus reality comes into play in a major way with this one. So the question is...is there a formula for having that perfect date night?

In this episode, Tim and Doug share their ways of planning their perfect date nights.

Get it in your calendar. Think about the outcomes that you want to have during and after that date night. Paint that picture in your head. Give yourself a transition time, from “work mode” or whatever mode you were in to “date night mode”. Don’t rush yourself getting into that “date night mode”.

Make sure to figure out what you like and equally important, what your partner or your wife likes as well. Looking around within your community and seeing what you can do in the area would be a great help in planning your perfect date nights. Avoid planning at the last minute because most of the time, the result isn’t great or sometimes, it will be a disaster. Always start with the end in mind.

However, don’t put too many expectations on your date nights. Remember that it’s not going to always be perfect. We’re all human. Think less about the expectations and think more about the possibilities. At the end of the day, your presence and the connections that you’ll make on your date night is more important.

What you will learn in this episode:

How to plan a perfect date night
The importance of planning the perfect date night
The importance of thinking more about the possibilities versus expectations

Episode #92

What happens when therapy doesn't work?

For most men, there has been a lot of negative connotations around going to therapy, whether it's couples therapy, marriage counseling, or therapy on their own.

Some men that come through The Powerful Man say their therapy wasn’t successful because the therapist is a woman and they can’t rely on her to will really understand what they’re going through.

Other men believe the stigma that being in therapy indicates that there is something wrong with them.

Oftentimes, therapy doesn’t work for men because men try to compartmentalize their lives that affect almost every area of their lives, their businesses, their marriages, their health, their finances, and personal happiness.

If therapy doesn’t work for you...try something else!

The truth is, you are not put on this world to struggle. You've just been using the wrong system or the wrong roadmap.

If you’re given the right roadmap and you’re willing to do the work, then a particular result happens.

Do something.

Don’t be in therapy if you're experiencing no results and you aren't doing anything about it.

Don’t be afraid to pivot.

Don’t be afraid to make a change.

Know when perseverance is starting to work against you & don’t be afraid to try something different.

Make that call.

What you will learn in this episode:

What to do when therapy doesn’t work.
The importance of having the right therapy.
The importance of not settling.
The importance of taking action when you're not seeing any results.

Episode #91

Knowing who we are and what we want will give us the foundation and direction as we go on with our lives. If you are confident of who you are, there will be no need to put up a front just to prove yourself to other people. Be authentic. Be the man you're capable of being. Stop seeking validation from people around you.

If you are secure with yourself and steadfast, things will wash over you. If our foundation is strong, you don't easily succumb to any conflict that you encounter.

If you discover who you are and be confident about it, people will see you as someone who can lead them and whom they can give their trust. People tend to invest their emotions and trust in a person who they know is stable and secure.

Not knowing who you mean not knowing what you want. If you don't figure out who you are, you will forever be living somebody else's dreams and desires and you will never feel content.

What you will learn in this episode:

Figuring out who you are and what you want
Importance of being present with the people that we love
Letting our loved ones feel that sense of security
Being confident of who you are without the need for validation from other people

Episode #90

In this episode, Tim and Doug discuss Tim's conversation with one of the men from the brotherhood. He shared that this particular man has been hiding or living just to get by for the past several months after becoming a better man as a result of joining the brotherhood.

For the past 12 months, this guy achieved phenomenal things. To name a few, he landed a 6-figure deal in his business which is the largest in his company's history, he reunited with his family, lost weight, is now picking up his kids from school and now has control over all aspects of his life.

Yet...over the past month or so, he has been doing 'just enough' to get by. He has been making promises but then not following through, especially in his business. His company has been receiving negative reviews for its poor customer service which Tim believes is a reflection of him not being there to provide presence and leadership.

Most men, if not all, experience this situation.

In business, for example, we are so used to hustling and grinding our way until we reach our business goals. And then when we reach those goals, we just stop working.

We take our foot off the gas. We settle. And two or three months go by, and suddenly we lose a client, and another client, and another client. By the time we take to look at it, the business is already burning down.

So we start to take action again, step on the gas again, hustle and grind until we build the business back up again. And then we settle again and then we burn it again and then build it back up and then settle again. The pattern goes on and on.

Until you figure out why you do this, why that pattern keeps on happening, where's the source of it, you will be trapped inside this loop.

Get very clear with yourself. Are you being the man you know you can be? Don't get stuck in the patterns that don't serve you.

What is Upper Limiting
What is Unconcious Commitment
What to do when you reach your threshold

Episode #88

As men, we are taught that in order to provide for our family we have to work hard. Working hard then leads us to hustle, leaving us to think that we are doing exactly what we are supposed to do....but in reality, we are completely missing the mark.

While you are busy grinding to secure your children's future, you are losing the chance to be with them while they are growing up because there is no energy left for them every time you get home.

You lose the chance to be physically and emotionally present for them and the chance to experience having a great father who can serve as their model when they themselves become fathers.

To be a great father you should have the skillset to understand your children and get into THEIR world. Spend time with them and do your best to not miss important events in their lives.

We often grind so we can give them everything we think they need to be happy but what we don't realize is that spending quality time with them IS what makes them happy.

Know your priorities. Know what really matters to you. If you say it is your children or family, then you have to be PRESENT for them.

Break the pattern and be a father whom your children will look up to.

Episode #87

We are taught to believe that when we hustle and grind we will become successful and this will make us happy. This is the idea of success and happiness that was taught to us by society.

But what if you were to identify for yourself what will give you that true happiness and life's meaning? What if you chose to break the rules and just do what you love to do?

Letting yourself experience spontaneous fun and just doing what you love is MORE important than living the way society wants you to.

When we inject fun in all areas of our lives, life starts to become more meaningful, business grows a lot faster while doing less and your relationship starts to have a deeper connection and intimacy.

In this episode you will learn :

The importance of injecting fun in all areas of your life
How to be successful and happy by doing less
How to let yourself find life's meaning by breaking the rules and just doing what you love.

Women want to be led by a man who knows what he is doing and knows where he is going. Part of it comes from feeling secure from the person who's leading her. She needs to know that her partner is man enough to be a strong foundation for her and for their family.

In order to become the powerful man that your wife needs, you should first recognize where you are now and know where you are going.

Episode #85

Most men have the belief that to provide for his family is to provide "financially". So as a result, he hustles and grinds every day to earn money but eventually loses himself in the process and doesn't have anything more to give when he gets home.

He's physically there but emotionally absent. Women tend to notice immediately if their partner is not doing well in the relationship but men, most of the time, will only figure it out later.

Men typically figure out there is an issue in the relationship AFTER he has already pushed his partner far away, has made many broken promises and the trust is gone.

In this episode, we talk about how men should be proactive and pay attention to the warning signs so they can do something and make a change while it's not too late.

Be aware of what's going on around you. If you are being tested by your partners and they are giving you the warning signs, be grateful because you now have the opportunity to make amends. Once you recognize the warning signs, take ownership of what you do as a man and take massive action.

If you ignore the warning signs, you will pay the price and will have an even tougher journey later on because you failed to make things right when you had the chance.

In this episode you will learn:

Recognizing the Warning Signs
The Importance of Providing Emotionally
The Importance of Being Proactive and Taking Ownership as a Man.

Episode #084

In this episode, we revisit one of our most popular episodes. Tim & Doug discuss a real-life example of a man they spoke with who felt everything around him was the reason he was unfulfilled. He blamed the location in which he was based, the people and other external factors for all that was wrong in his life, avoiding the real issue, which was himself!

This is a very common occurrence in men that Tim & Doug help on a regular basis. People who don’t take responsibility for themselves and always look to the nearest thing to point the finger of blame. We’ve all met that people who never seem happy in their job/relationship and yet they continuously blame external things… their job, their boss, their partner. It’s not bad luck that puts a person in these circumstances over and over, it’s the person themselves and once they accept that their lives can be changed.

At the end of this episode, Tim & Doug also share a story of how another man who had fallen into the habit of blaming external issues in his business, once he made the realization he saw some immediate changes to his business and turnover.

Episode #83

Success does not always mean having material things, making a lot of money and getting that feeling of significance and respect from other people. Many financially successful people are unhappy because they became exhausted hustling and working hard thinking that these things will make them happy.

There are so many rules in place that are holding them back and that makes their life monotonous. The more money they make, the more they become unhappy because these rules take them away farther from the real essence of what it means to be a human being. This void cannot be filled with material things. Fill this void within by breaking the rules and give yourself permission to experience spontaneous fun.

People oftentimes feel the need to be busy all the time where they think that having fun is a waste of time and money. They do not realize that sometimes while making fun, more creative ideas pop up. If you bring fun or joy in most areas of your life like in work, you will make a lot more progress.

Do not depend on your happiness on anything or anyone. We don't need anything else outside ourselves to experience joy. We have the joy and fun inside us, we just need to learn to generate it and show it.

Allowing yourself to experience spontaneous fun

Episode #82

Holding back from the things you wanted to say and do will HINDER you from being free from all the stress and anxiety.

You end up feeling trapped within yourself from keeping all the emotions and energy inside because you are afraid that people might judge and see your weakness.

We oftentimes feel frustrated and anxious because we are FIGHTING our emotions.

To gain that peace we seek and break free from the frustration and anxiety, we need to learn to take the first step - which is to surrender.

We work hard, we hustle thinking that if we do this we can make more money, we will become successful and then we can be happy but in reality, we can NEVER BE FULFILLED if we carry loads within us.

The anxiety and frustrations eventually consume us if we do not let it go. Some men do less but get a lot more done because they are free emotionally. They liberate themselves from this anxiety and depression. It is not how hard you work but taking a look at what is happening inside you that is most important.

Invest in personal development or business coaching such as the Alpha Reset. It is not required that you be in a specific position or know anything specific to be involved. What you just need to do is SURRENDER, let go of all the anger and frustrations that you have inside and allow yourself to be coached. Alpha reset is a space where you can express, open up, share your emotions and be seen for the man that you are without judgment.

It is not a surrender of giving up but a surrender of letting go and no longer fighting the pressure, guilt, and shame. It's time to liberate yourself and enjoy your life without the need to hustle.

What you will discover in this episode:

The difference between being productive and busy.
How your business can be suffering by lies you tell yourself.
Actionable steps to becoming more productive in business and life.
How to set yourself free of old phrases that are no longer relevant.
How to shift your belief systems.
How to get closer to your goals by being productive.

Episode #081

Today we get to revisit one of our most popular episodes...DO LESS + BE MORE.

In today’s face-paced world, it’s so easy to be busy, hustle hustle hustle, go go go. We even measure our success by how busy we are… how often do you tell someone you are busy for them to respond “Great, busy is good”, “I wish i could be busier”. Anyone can be busy, but it’s much harder to be productive...

In this episode, Tim shares a story of a business owner who was in hustle mode, working non-stop, living fast and hard but he was also drained and unable to appreciate his success and everything good in his life. His thoughts were telling him things like “you have to take the rough with the smooth” or “Life isn’t all sunshine and rainbows”. This is something we can all relate to, phrases we were brought up hearing and have become ingrained in our psyche.

This weeks’ episode brings another very familiar story and common thread for entrepreneurs and business owners.

Tim & Doug discuss a true story about a business owner they know, this man is extremely successful but admits he has no idea how he has got the success and feels like he just got lucky.

Does this sound like you?

Naturally, this leads to extreme insecurity and fear, he doesn’t want his staff or people around him to see this, so he continues to wear the mask of being an all confident, all-knowing leader.

Often leaders or business owners can wear a mask that shows them off to be the type of person they think they SHOULD be, however behind closed doors and inside their own heads, they are somebody completely different.

They are somebody with huge doubts and insecurities that they don’t want others to see as in case it’s perceived as a weakness.

While all of us don’t put on a mask to such a big extent, the likelihood is that all of us put on some form of a mask, we all have insecurities and things we don’t want our colleagues or family/friends to know about.

Accepting and facing these insecurities head-on will ensure that they don’t show themselves in a way that damages your life and business.

The process of taking the mask off is simple, but also daunting and difficult to bring yourself to do. Taking off the mask means being completely honest with yourself first, asking yourself those important questions that will define your life; Who are you really? What do you want from life? Are you happy?

What you will discover in this episode:

How to recognize when you are hiding or putting up a facade in life.
How your mask can hold you back.
The top 3 things you can do immediately in the process of removing the mask.
How taking off the mask and embracing vulnerability can give you freedom.
Simple actionable techniques to start this process.

Episode #77

There are 5 territories of your life that when prioritized correctly will lead to success in everything you do. The 5 territories include self, health, wealth and relationships and business.

The number one mistake men make is prioritizing business as our foundational territory. This is common as we are taught that as men we should provide for our family. We hustle to make money in order to provide but we often forget that we should also provide emotionally.

While we are so focused on our first priority - business - we seldom make time for our loved ones because often times we have no energy left.

We also forget to take care of ourselves, our health is often taken for granted because we fail to turn off from the hustle that we give our business.

In this episode, we dive deep into society's definition of how to be a man and what it looks like to create our OWN identity by investing in things that could improve our self, our health, and our relationships.

What you will learn in this episode:

Making ourselves the top priority
Creating your own identity
Identifying what really matters to you

In order to become a powerful man, you should understand where you are in order to navigate your way through.

If not, it will be difficult for you to move, leaving you stuck in the darkness.

When you begin t recognize that you are experiencing the 5 agonies, you then become able to shift it into the 5 freedoms.

As men, we are constantly sold on this idea of "power" in the form of external power. But the truth is, both external and internal power and strength are important.

It takes courage to break the chain of society and take a stand for what really matters to you. The courage and vulnerability to be able to accept what situation you are in and transform your greatest pain into your greatest power.

We tend to believe that to be a man we have to earn money, but while doing what we are told to do we are not achieving our dreams but somebody else's dream.

We feel empty in spite of the achievements and approvals we get from society because we know within us that these are just false success and these don't really matter to us.

Reconnect to your instinct, break the chains of the society, stand firm to what is really important to you and allow it to flow through you. This will show in your energy, peace, clarity, and power.

Episode #74

Something common we experience is men who view themselves as winners and have resistance around joining a personal or businesses development program because they believe that those who attend the program are men who are broken.

Does this belief resonate with you?

These men believe that they must be surrounded only by winners or champions like themselves.

What they are not aware of is the fact that these men who dive into these programs are elite businessmen with high-level performances. These men want to learn a new skillset for themselves and to uplevel their game...and not because they are broken.

These men go through the program because they desire to learn how to effectively communicate with their loved ones, to build a deeper and more intimate connection, navigate the emotions they are experiencing and express every part of themselves in the world opposite of what the society has instilled to us.

We were taught by society not to cry, not to be happy and we are also told not to be angry because we might hurt people.

We get to strip away what we have been told and show the REAL us because IT IS NOT US WHO IS BROKEN...BUT THE SYSTEM.

We all go through hard times, we may be lacking or we may not be good enough in some aspects but that doesn't define who we are as a person. You should love yourself, acknowledge and accept your flaws and do the work to improve yourself every day.

Raise your standards and level up your game.

What we get by joining personal/business development programs

Episode #71

Do we really have a nearly unlimited personal power?

Imagine you won the lottery. How would you be feeling? You might be jumping up and down, shouting, laughing, screaming and celebrating. You see, that energy already exists in us but we are not aware of it or how we can unlock it.

In unlocking nearly unlimited personal power, the first thing to do is to KNOW WHERE YOU ARE. It's like a journey from point A to point B. You can't go to point B without knowing where point A is. You just don't know if you're going to be taking a left or a right if you don't know where you're starting from.

What also hinders us from unlocking our nearly unlimited power is that we are suppressing our four main emotions which are guilt, shame, anger, and sadness. Take time to identify each and release them. In this episode, Tim and Doug share some exercises on how to do this.

Finally, you must remember WHO YOU ARE. Reinforce the truth of who you really are.

What you will learn in this episode:

How to Unlock Your Nearly Unlimited Personal Power

Episode #69

In this episode, Tim and Doug talk about Doug's conversation with a business owner about a topic on relationships.

This business owner, while revisiting his Amazon Kindle account, found a purchased book entitled "How to Win a Divorce for Women". Thinking his marriage was going good, spending his time slugging along, working, getting things done, providing for his wife and his three kids, discovering this about his wife who bought a book about how to win a divorce raises a really huge red flag.

Shocking as it may seem, but most men experience this in some ways, shapes or forms. Usually, most men become busy with their day jobs or managing their businesses that they tend to forget how to treat their wives or partners the way they should be treated. To make more money, most men grind and sacrifice many things and that includes their most precious time for their family.

Being more sensitive about your partners or wives will help you notice any negative signals about your relationships and immediately address it. Leading the five territories of your life which are your self, health, relationships, wealth and business will also help you to have a well-balanced life.

Many of us have sworn we would never do things the way our father did...and yet some of those are things we are unconsciously doing.

The agony you feel when you start comparing yourself with the man you know you could be can be stopped if you just commit to change.

The idea of change is not as scary as we believed it would be but it is worth taking the risk.

Change your ways.

Stop comparing yourself.

And uplevel your standards in order to be the man you are capable of being.

Don't be in no man's land, a situation where you are in between where you are and where you want to be.

We go through agonies, we feel insecure, lonely, empty and we end up sabotaging ourselves. Because of anger, we start pushing our loved ones and sacrificing our relationship until we become lonely and empty.

When shame and guilt build-up, it will result in self-isolation and fueling up the cycle.

You can get out of this situation as long as you are willing to recognize that you are in it and are willing to commit to a change.

Raise your standards, think of what standard you want to pass on to your kids and what kind of man you want to be for the people you love.

Value yourself, invest in your self-improvement and happiness and value the people that you love and step forward.

What you will learn in this episode:

Leveling up your standards

Episode #66

Providing for your family doesn't only mean providing financially but also emotionally. We have this unconscious commitment that if we work longer hours, THEN we will be able to provide well for our family's future.

We keep on grinding, spending too much time in the office for us to be able to give our family the comforts of life but we don't realize that we are starting to lose connection with them. Our absence creates a gap with our loved ones and we start to feel empty and discontent.

Being a father is not measured by how much money we make but how much time we spend with our children. Step up, be the man, be the leader in the house, support their dreams, share your knowledge and being a good example to them.

Many of us unconsciously believe that without the grind, we become less of a man. Yet, the truth is we don't really need to become a millionaire for us to be called a good father or a good provider. Our time and presence are what our family actually needs.

Upleveling your mindset will enable you to find a new sense of happiness and contentment. Reconnect to your family and you will see how colorful life becomes. Be a father that you want your children to become in the future.

In this episode we will learn:

Cocaine is one of the most commonly abused drugs in the world. Its side effects include loss of contact with reality and an intense feeling of happiness. And a lot of men struggle with this addiction.

More than half of the men who joined The Activation program were struggling with an addiction to cocaine. They turned to coke in order to escape the pain that they were feeling or use it as an outlet so they can show up and be the person that they wanted to be.

Some men, even after achieving great successes, take cocaine so they can feel a sense of fulfillment. While some men, regardless if they experience success or failure, will turn to this addiction to experience a certain feeling in their lives that they have not yet figured out how to give themselves.

Episode #64

No matter how much money or business you have...if you are not clear on who you want to be, you will still end up feeling empty.

We become blinded by the norms set by society and end up following somebody else's guidance on how we should be living our lives instead of following how we personally want to live our own lives.

We end up striving for somebody else's ideals of what it means to be a man and have success. Until we define our own definition of being a man and success, we will start to feel incomplete and like we are not doing good enough.

We become trapped in this belief that when we have more money we can solve everything and will then be happy. We get to work, keeping ourselves busy making money and end up losing our connection with our loved ones along the way.

In this episode, we dive deep into HOW we can take control of these beliefs and shift them to create a happier and more fulfilling mindset.

Episode #63

We are too busy hustling to make money that we forget we are no longer living the life we desire.

Does this sound familiar?

We forget that there are more important things than money like our happiness and relationships.

Most of us grew up believing that money is the most important thing in this world and that it will solve everything. So we get in this habit of hustling without realizing that as we keep on making money, we end up missing out on the things we say are most important to us.

There is this subconscious belief that many men are operating from which is that the more we sacrifice, the more of a man we are.

Does that resonate with you?

Sometimes we sacrifice our own happiness and our connection with the people around us until we realize that we've sacrificed too much, including the people that we love.

We fail to experience all the simple things in life and we start to regret that we let these pass by without being able to experience and embrace the moment because we are busy with "other things".

In this episode you will learn:

How to live a life without regrets
What the most important things in life are
What things we typically sacrifice while focusing on making money
The false beliefs or unconscious commitments that we regret believing

By leveling up in your life, you are exposing yourself to more possibilities that require you to face your fears, step in, and see what life has in store for you. Who you believe yourself to be and what kind of standard you have dictates how you will perform and how you level up your performance.

When you uplevel, you will feel that some things you are currently doing are not aligned anymore with your new level, making it important to realign things. This type of mindset will guide you to where you are going and will help align you with your vision.

One of the ways to uplevel and re-align with your new standards is to identify or uncover your unconscious commitments.

Examine yourself why you are in the situations you are in, what direction you really want to go in and what things need to be realigned based on your standard.

After identifying these unconscious commitments, turn them into conscious commitments to break the pattern. Align yourself every day through meditation. Know your identity and align it to your standards.

In this episode, you will learn:

How to unconscious commitments into conscious commitments
The importance of knowing your identity and align it to your standards

Episode #061

In this episode Tim & Doug discuss one of the most common questions asked by high achievers; If I become content in my life will I still be driven?

A lot of people fear what might happen if they achieve the things they really desire, they have a fear that they will no longer have something to aim for and this is a key reason as to why a lot of people, if pushed by fear, hit the self destruct button and damage their lives and business.

Understanding how fear can hold you back is the key to getting past this block. It’s in our nature to think that once we have achieved our goals that we then reach the endpoint, and it’s also natural for us not to want to reach the end of our purpose because what would we do then?

In fact, it can even make you more driven, more productive and things will come to you easily and seamlessly. You will begin to see things differently but it will give you the freedom to enjoy life with flow and ease.

Tim and Doug share real-life examples of when someone in a relationship holds back on who they really are in order to keep the other person happy. This is something that they see over and over again from members of ‘The Activation Process’ and it always leads to a false or failed relationship.

Like in any relationship, if you hold back on how you are really feeling for fear of upsetting your partner, it always gets bottled up and these bottled up emotions will always come out at some point in a much more explosive way than if you tackle the issue there and then.

Doug shares a personal story of when his wife spotted that he was in a habit of dimming his own lights in order to make other people feel better. Upon discovering this trait and working on it, Doug saw the picture change completely.

In the final part of this episode Tim asks the all-important question, How do you let your light shine and be the full you while also keeping your partner happy...

Because of the influence of society, we tend to hide our true self in a story. We become part of a story that will eventually consume us and will make us forget our true identity.

We are scared that people will come to know our flaws and weaknesses so we hide in these false stories until we become stuck in it.

We become blinded by the comfort that we get from hiding in these stories that we don't realize how much these stories are no longer serving us.

To find out if you're stuck in a story, you first need to be aware of what is true to you and spot the pattern. Talk to people and share your weakness and vulnerability. This allows people to know the REAL you and understand you.

Ask for advice from people who have gone through what it is you're going through because these are the people who will understand your situation better than anyone.

Detach yourself from the story and see what is really true to you, your true identity and re-align with that every day.

We are living in a land of comparison. We often compare ourselves to our future selves or we compare ourselves to a greater person than who we are.

When we start to think that we should be farther ahead than who and where we are now, we begin to feel so much pressure and end up beating ourselves up which can lead to depression.

We compare ourselves to other people that surround us and when we feel that we are lesser compared to that other person we start feeling frustrated. We end up escaping from reality through food, addiction, pornography, social media, etc.. Society is giving us this paradigm that if you do this, you will become like that.

It is important to note that it is not our fault for being in this kind of situation but we DO have control over it. We just need to be self-aware.

It becomes your fault when you become aware of it but you still continue to give your power away. If you feel that the rules dictated by society do not fit your desires, you have to start questioning in order to make a change.

Do not force yourself. Set a goal and enjoy the whole experience starting from the beginning until you reach the endpoint. The whole journey may not be all good but allow the growth to occur and just enjoy each moment.

Do not avoid the energy or emotion that shows up for you. Let these emotions serve as a fuel and learn the lessons that show up. Navigate your way into acceptance and gratitude for what's coming instead of forcing your way out of it.

While we're in this space, we don't realize that we're starting to slip back into some of our old habits and old ways. Instead of regressing backwards it's important we take a real look at this and put in the work to grow into the next phase.

Episode #50

As apart of growing up, we have all been exposed to external influences like our society. The norms and standards have been programmed in our minds and being unable to meet them will make us feel frustrated and overwhelmed.

We start to feel that we are not good enough and we get tired trying to constantly fit in and meet the requirements set by society.

Society taught us that money would make us happy and that we should hustle in order to become successful and if we are successful we will get everything we want including love and respect. This idea becomes our marker of being successful and not being able to do this will make us feel not good enough.

What we do next is we grind harder thinking that the answer is to "do better" and as the cycle continues with the result of feeling even more tired and frustrated. Falling into this bait ends up making us feel more empty and alone. While we get busy hustling to make money, we don't realize that we start losing our relationships, forget our priorities and push aside the things that really matter in our lives.

Break the cycle, reprogram your mindset and priorities and reflect on what is really going on inside you. Acknowledge that there is a problem, take ownership and make a change.

Raise your standards because what happens in the external is a complete reflection of your standards.

Episode #48

In this episode, Tim and Doug share some ways they are seducing their partners.

As the man, you should be the one to take the lead and make your partner feel seen and desired. But...how exactly can you do that? This is a topic that comes up often at The Alpha Reset.

The first key is that you should know your partner's love language and give her love the way she wants to receive it...not just the way you like to give it. Prioritize spending quality time with her and make her feel provided for emotionally by the man she loves (you).

Focus on making her feel special by doing the things that will make her happy regardless if you don't get anything in return. This shows that you are doing it out of commitment and a desire to uphold your role as a man in the relationship.

In this episode, we dive into the trap many men fall into...the transactional relationships. Seducing your partner shouldn't be transactional but should be purely out of love. Showing both your strength AND vulnerability to your partner will make her feel more secure...deepening your connection on every level.

In this episode you will learn:

Ways to seduce your wife
The importance of seduction being done purely out of love
What a transactional relationship is
How to make your partner feel desired
Your role as a man

Episode #47

That feeling of emptiness...no matter how hard you try...is always a result of your unconscious commitments.

Unconscious commitments, as defined in this episode, are the things occurring in our lives as repeating patterns that we do not like. If we do not identify these patterns or beliefs that we are unconsciously committed into, it will result in self-sabotage.

A work ethic that is instilled in us is to work hard to be more successful. As a result of an unconscious commitment to this belief, we end up hustling and sacrificing our relationships or personal happiness. We struggle and grind to make more money, believing that this will enable us to prove ourselves to other people that we can also make it. Instead of using or spending money to show off, we should invest it for our personal growth and focus on what will really make us happy.

To end self-sabotage, we should identify the patterns or beliefs that are already programmed into our minds. We should reflect on what we really feel, acknowledge it, and take radical steps to make a change. We get to reprogram these unconscious commitments and change them into more empowering beliefs.

What you will discover in this episode:

What an unconscious commitment is
How unconscious commitments result in self-sabotage
What to do in order to end self-sabotage
How to reprogram your mind from these unconscious commitments

Episode #46

There is no transformation that goes rapidly. It is a continuous work, commitment, and improvement. The result of the transformation is based on your level of standards.

Some men use time and money as an excuse but it is really their standards that are preventing them to achieve transformation. They feel that they are not worthy of those standards because they think they are too high for them.

Unconscious commitments prevent us from growing and raising our standards. Men always find ways on how to make themselves busy even if it is not working for them because we are taught by the society that when we are busy it means we are successful, in demand and significant. We do not realize that these beliefs or norms will impede our transformation or growth and it will soon ruin our lives.

Men in the brotherhood are also businessmen, they have families and most of them are even leaders of their communities. They have high time demands yet they are able to maintain their standards and are always raising it. As a result, they are also able to lift the standards of the people around them.

Raising the standard doesn't really require more time and money. It only requires a mindset shift and a commitment to a transformation. Commit to continuously do work and improve. Start with yourself, stay away from the patterns dictated by society and achieve that higher standard of living.

In this episode you will learn:

How unconscious commitments ruin our lives
How to achieve transformation and raise our standards
The excuses men usually use that prevents them from achieving transformation
The requirement for you to be able to raise your standards
The results men achieved in the Alpha reset

Episode #41

In this episode, Tim and Doug discuss how a man gets a connection with a sex worker and how to not rely on this.

Men who are disconnected tend to search for something to fill them and sometimes they end up being involved with a sex worker. This situation enables him to be connected in a way because it is the opportunity for him to open up emotionally, take off his mask and just be himself.

Having sex with a sex worker gives him a sense of connectional significance which he lacks in life. Sex is not the main reason why he does this but rather to get time and space to be loved, to be seen and most importantly to feel companionship.

Instead of doing this, you should act like a real man who doesn't run away or escape situations. Be that man who knows how to deal with problems and knows how to find a connection with himself first.

Find men who you can open up to without judgment, someone you can get support from and you can connect with.

In this episode you will learn:

Why men seek connection from a sex worker
How a man finds a connection during sex
Importance of having real conversations with other men who play at the same level as you.
How to be really connected without involving yourself with a sex worker

Episode #39

Oftentimes we find ourselves on autopilot where we slip into old habits and skip our morning routines & habits we set earlier.....quickly getting back into the hustle of work and busyness of life.

In previous episodes, we talked about the dangers of not having a structured routine. When we skip a routine and approach life from "autopilot", we end up setting up our lives to serve our business instead of our business serving our lives.

We let this pattern continue for days without realizing it and if it goes on for months, it will greatly affect our decision making. We become more exhausted, our health starts to decline and you end up becoming more distant to the people you love.

In this episode, we dive deep into the importance of having a "self-check" from time to time. A time to pause and look at how you are currently operating VS. what your optimal state looks like.

Set yourself up for success by creating an effective support system and surrounding yourself with people who will constantly remind you to self-check & help you return to the right path. Recognize these patterns and do something about it.

The sooner we recognize it, the better. Find the triggers of this pattern, be accountable and take action.

What you will discover in this episode:

How to stay on track
Importance of self-checking

Every man wants to be the king of the household. In return, they expect passion and intense desire from their partner.

A woman, on the other hand, wants a man in her life but if her partner expects her to pick up his clothes for him & do all the chores at home alone, then the energy she has will be quickly consumed and she will have little time & energy to spend as husband and wife. In this cycle, she will get tired of doing the things that typically a mother does for her son.

In this episode, Doug and Tim discuss the things money can't solve. In our society, it's common for us to think that money is the solution to all our problems (even if it's a subconscious belief) and we often forget that there are other things that are more important than money.

We believe that making more money will help us get to a certain point where we will be able to work less, have the freedom to travel and have more time to spend with our family. Yet, while we are busy hustling and wanting to provide more for our family, we are losing our relationships and the problem becomes worse. We need to understand that building connections within our relationships is much more significant than chasing money. We don't need to buy unnecessary things or spend too much money for a vacation in order to spend time and be connected with our family. Being present and spending quality time with them is already enough to solve that problem. We get to be aware that money isn't the only solution for everything. Recognize the problem, find the root cause and solve it right away to break the chain. What you will discover in this episode: 1. That money can't solve everything 2. Building relationships are more important than money 3. Recognizing the root cause of the problem to break the chain 4.

"I hope they don't find out."

In this episode, Doug and Tim discuss the importance of being yourself.

Putting on a front or wearing a mask will only make us more exhausted because we then feel the burden of thinking that people might find out who we really are.

The society that we live in has trained us to put on a front in order to be accepted.

We always give our best, showcase everything, use all our energy and at the end of the day, the real us becomes exhausted.

Putting on a mask for a long time drains us and will only put us into desperation and emptiness. Being ourselves and sharing our weaknesses builds a deeper emotional connection to people around us.

Showing who we really are and allowing people to love the REAL us and care for us because they accept who we really are is the KEY.

Importance of showing the real you

Tim and Doug pointed out the importance of ownership and providing opportunities to employees in order to rule out problems like this within a team. In cases like this, the employer or the boss should identify the root cause of why the employee underperforms and is unhappy.

In this episode, Tim and Doug share valuable tips on navigating unmet expectations.

Tim shares a story of one of his men in the Alpha Reset brotherhood and how the relationship of this man and his wife turned sour for 2 years due to unidentified and unmet expectations.

Oftentimes, unmet expectations are results of uncommunicated, unidentified or hidden expectations or an expectation without possibilities.

To navigate unmet expectations, it should be communicated clearly and calmly. Navigating unmet expectations also means being able to think outside the box for possibilities or alternatives instead of expecting an exact black or white outcome.

If you're expecting change, do not expect for a drastic one, open up the possibilities to allow the time it takes for change to happen.

If there are no possibilities within your expectation then you are setting yourself up for a guaranteed disappointment. Clear and good communication is crucial in navigating unmet expectations.

Starting the day with a routine or a system puts everything in place. Your mind will be free from stress, you can plan ahead and you will be able to use your energy properly without being exhausted at the end of the day while providing better outcomes.

In another open and honest discussion, Tim & Doug share their thoughts on what they describe as one of the most common issues faced by men across the business world today. However, it’s not something anyone needs to go through, what happens if you replace the word ‘or’ with the word ‘and’ in this scenario, how does that life look to you?

This is something that is very possible but that requires a mindset shift and you being open and honest with yourself about who you are, how you feel and where you want to be in life.

Tim shares a story of a man he spoke to who was facing this exact issue. He felt the need, as a man to make his wife feel safe and secure and his way of doing this was earning money. This is a common alpha male natural instinct. However, things change when his wife dropped the bombshell that she felt more secure when he was unemployed and they were financially insecure. What his wife wanted and what he thought she wanted were two completely different things.

Are you building your dream and your dream alone or are you including your wife and/or family?

Doug shares a practice he carries out with his family when planning for his business which raises the importance of including your partner in business decisions you make, not necessarily day to day decisions but outlooks and how it will affect your personal life. Is there really any point in working every hour you can in order to make extra money if it means you don’t have the time to enjoy with your family

There is a balance to be had… you need to start working smarter not harder and you can start to do it right now!

Finally, Tim & Doug address the thought that some people are hiding from their marriage through their work. If you are asking yourself to choose between your marriage and your business, there is likely to be a deeper reason why you are not putting your marriage first because you are not being fulfilled, this is something you can address and fix to live a more successful and fulfilling life.

Episode #023

Enjoy the Journey!

How often do you hear that phrase, life is a journey and it needs to be enjoyed. However being involved in a battle or war, isn’t an enjoyable experience.

In this episode Tim & Doug present another deep discussion what it truly means to become a powerful man and they put the case forward for ditching the idea of a physical, tough, war like alpha male in favour of a calm, quietly confident, self assured man as being the one we should aspire to.

As men, we are so often wired to feel like we should go to war, we should treat everything like a battle that we need to win. This mentality comes from our ancestors having to fight and battle to stay alive and even most recently in the world wars when men were recruited to go to war for their country. Still to this day there is a belief among many that being a man means going to war and winning a battle. Even as a metaphor this can be a dangerous way to view life. What are we really telling ourselves if this is the language we use and the outlook we have.

Tim & Doug look at what it actually means to go to war… pain, suffering, hurt, anger... these are the emotions associated with war and these will be the emotions you will encounter if you approach life like a battle or a war.

The most successful men are more often not the ones beating their chest the hardest. We have all seen people who shout the loudest about their success but these are also the people who get into more disagreements, the ones who fail to take responsibility, the ones who pass the buck… This is because are in battle mode and they are most likely extremely insecure. Tim and Doug both relate to moving from this mindset to a more calm, relaxed and confident mindset and what it did for their lives.

If you take yourself out of battle mode it’s the first step to being calm, confident and in a state of flow. You don’t need anyone else’s approval to live the life you want and you can live a much more fulfilling and successful life by changing your mentality to be more positive. You don’t need to go to war

Things you will discover in this episode:

How the language we use has a direct effect on our subconscious and how we operate.
How being calm can improve your behaviour and outcomes.
How the idea of battles and wars impacts our belief systems.
Why it’s time to ditch the cliche physical, tough, alpha male in favour of the calm self assured man.
Why calm is an incredibly strong inner strength.
Why the loudest isn’t always the best.
An immediate actionable step to being a more relaxed, confident man.

Episode #021

“You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with”

In this episode, Doug brings to the table a real story of a man who was getting business advice from somebody who was completely unqualified to do so and it kicks off a discussion about the importance of surrounding yourself with like-minded people who you contribute towards your goals in business and life.

We've all heard the theory about how surrounding yourself with successful people who you admire will automatically rub off on you.

This sounds easy enough right, whatever you want to achieve, go find people who have done it already… but how do you know they have actually done it?! We’ve all seen coaches online who claim to be successful entrepreneurs who can teach you to be one too… but how do you know they’ve actually done it, this is the most difficult part of the process. Getting advice from someone who isn't actually qualified is much worse than getting no advice at all.

Doug talks about how he and his wife decided to selectively choose who they would spend their social time with, this involved going out and actively looking for the people who they wanted to be most like, as a result, their mindset started to shift. He then applied the same technique to his business.

Often this will involve dropping all pride and judgment. We are automatically afraid to seek counsel and advice from others, they worry about how it will make them look… will it show my weaknesses? Yes maybe it will, but all of us have weaknesses and the most successful people are the ones that identify them and seek advice on how to overcome them.

Find out how you can surround yourself by the RIGHT people!

What you will discover in this episode:

How to make sure you're surrounded by the right people.
The damaging effect of advice from the wrong people.
How to differentiate truly successful people from people who just claim to be.

Central to not wanting to share demons with those closest to us seems to be the old attitude and wiring we have of not to air our dirty laundry, always put on a brave face and the perception that things are great.
