Framework of Wholeness: https://youtu.be/RMcHWViy_FU

Shame is one of the most powerful emotions we carry. It keeps us small, disconnected, and afraid to show up as who we truly are.

In this episode, I reveal the 4 levels of shame:

Cultural – The legacy of being Irish and colonized.

Religious & Childhood – Wounds from the church and school.

Masculine – The fear of stepping up as a man.

Inherited – The ancestral weight passed down through generations.

Shame is an aspect of a greater framework that I teach. If you would like to know more click the link below

A Contemporary Framework for Wholeness

We hear this question being echoed in society, a calling forth of a different type of man. But often we do not look at the greater cultural shifts that have left men confused about how what it actually means to be a man, we have lost the traditional roles and now there is a new man needing to emerge.

In this podcast I dive into what is shifting in culture and that a different type of man needs to emerge now. We are being called by women and society to level up as men.

I cover:

- This difficulty and confusion we are faced with as men in todays society

- How many of us have abandoned our masculinity because of the backlash against men

- How men give up their own power to feel safe and acceptable

- How the rising and healing of women is calling us into being greater men

There is a new era of man emerging, who is not only deep within himself but he has worked through his wounds around the feminine and women. This man lives beyond the narratives of culture and lives by his own rules.

There are a few men who have done some work and realise there is more to go. If this is you setup a chat here to see how my method of working with men is changing peoples lives and relationships. Book here
