In this week's podcast mini-episode, I discuss the dangers of being half in and half out of a relationship.

We are often in a relationship, especially initially, unsure if we want to be in it. We act half-arsed about the relationship.

In this episode, I explain why this dooms a relationship from the start and hurt you.

Can you get enough protein if you are on a plant-based diet?

For many years, gym buddies, personal trainers, and gym owners told me that the answer to this question was categorically NO.

And I am sure you have heard the same thing, right?

For this week's podcast episode, I sit down with Jeffrey Boadi, a man who is on a mission to help you live a healthy, plant-based lifestyle, but not by shaming you but by inspiring you.

Find out in this episode how Jeffrey went from a meat-based diet to a plant-based diet overnight and how he keeps himself in optimal health!

This episode is perfect for anyone, especially men, who are considering a plant-based diet but are worried about protein intake, how it might look to others around you and the impact of such a change on your identity and cultural connection.

The key topics are:

🌽 How to get 200g of protein a day on a plant-based diet

🌽 Peoples fears about going planet-based

🌽 Meat and toxic masculinity

🌽 How to inspire people to a plant-based diet

🌽 How to go plant-based

🌽 Evolving your linage

🌽 How to get as much protein from a plant-based meal as your would with steak

🌽 The importance of varying your veg intake

🌽 Why you need more fibre

🌽 How Cultural and identity influences us moving to a plant-based diet

🌽 The downside of vegan processed food

How to create a conscious relationship - 12 Dec - 5pm uk time - https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/how-to-create-a-conscious-relationship-tickets-190435717357

In this weeks mini-episode, I talk about how we men (or women) can be more and feel more masculine.

A Conscious relationship, what is one?

What does it feel like to be in one?

Will you have more and better sex if you are in one?

And does it mean that you will have a happier, easy and smooth running relationship if it is more conscious?

These are the questions that I am asked about conscious relationships (and all are answered in the episode).

So I thought I would ask the person I have been cultivating a conscious relationship with, my wonderful partner Asa Baav.

Asa Baav is a matchmaker, coach, educator. She is on a mission to help busy professionals create deeply satisfying romantic relationships, inside and outside the bedroom.

Over the last two years, we have build a beautiful, honest and ravishing relationship based on the principles of what makes up a conscious relationship, like a commitment to growth, self-responsibility, sexual exploration, celebrating each other, interdependence and independence.

And in the episode, we explain to you how we did it, the challenges we faced and how we overcame them.

And if you want training in how to create the relationship you want, we have a workshop just for you...

How to create a conscious relationship - 12 Dec - 5pm uk time - https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/how-to-create-a-conscious-relationship-tickets-190435717357

In this weeks mini-episode, I talk about something from a slightly different angle. 

I have made many an episode about the ways that men can show up better and the ways that they hurt women in a relationship. But something that I see a lot from men I work with is how the women they are with hurt them and the relationship. But often, the men don’t see that the actions are hurting them or feel they are to blame for what is happening.

In this week's mini-episode, I get into why men are afraid of commitment and being with the wrong women, the stories they tell themselves about commitment and how I got over my fear of commitment.

What is the man experience of pregnancy?

How do men feel during childbirth?

What use is a man during the birth of his child?

When you hear these questions, you might think the answer to all of them is "not a lot", simply because you don't hear about it very much.

But I sit down with sexologist and men's sex coach Cam Fraser to talk about his experience of pregnancy, childbirth & post-birth intimacy.

This episode is an open, raw and vulnerable account of Cam's experience of a 'gnarly' and 'immense' birth and the after-effects on him.

We start the conversation talking about his journey to being a sex coach and sexologist, navigating his toxic masculinity and diving into the worlds of yoga and tantra.

And we move beautifully into his experiences of being a caretaker, provider and space holder in pregnancy and post childbirth.

The key topics are:

🤰🏻 Being a male caretaker during pregnancy

🤰🏻 Reverence for pregnant women

🤰🏻 Intimacy during and after pregnancy

🤰🏻 Healthy and unhealthy ways to embody the provider

🤰🏻 What a man does during birth

🤰🏻 Emotionally processing C-section

🤰🏻 Does having kids kill your sex life?

🤰🏻 Sex after childbirth

🤰🏻 The problems with performing masculinity
