Episode 32 - F*ck Off (With Love)

Do you spend too much time with people who just have nothing good to say about you? Even worse, are these people the closest people to you in your life? Family members? Friends? Co-Workers? It's always easy to give others an opinion that you don't know shit about and seemingly even easier when you ain't doing shit yourself. These words have the ability to cripple and stifle our dreams and goals, especially when we give them the power to. This is very dangerous for our growth and aspirations, being around this constant negative energy that feeds into our already sensitive and fragile self-doubt and motivation mechanisms. Take the power back. Tell them to fuck off.... with love of course!

 

Let me know if this episode resonates with you! Get out there and chase your dreams Kings and Queens. Fuck what anybody else gotta say.

Episode 31 - Being Impeccable with your Word

Your word is your worth. I talk about the power of words and your choices in this episode while paying homage to the incredible and mystical book, The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. If we only knew the power of our thoughts and words, we would choose and use them much more carefully. This could change your life and very easily too as it is often easiest to just change our vocabulary than it is our habits and thought patterns, which require more conditioning reversal. 

 

Begin to change your life by beginning with changing your vocabulary. This is the basis of neuro-linguistic programming (NLP).

 

What vocabulary in your life do you think is affecting your mood? What agreements are you making with what you put out into the universe verbally?

Let me know @djacie_ 

I hope you've been enjoying the words of appreciation and wisdom at the end of every episode!

Episode 30 - Anger & Emotional Regulation

This episode touches on what I believe to be one of the most critical issues in men's mental health. Instability with emotional regulation and anger can often get ugly when left untreated and much of domestic abuse and public acts of violence (sometimes extreme) are deeply rooted in the wounded masculine. How can we begin to regulate our emotions better and move from more of a reactive/triggered state to a more proactive mindset? This is literally a matter of life and death. 

 

If you are a victim or a perpetrator of violent outbursts or extreme bouts of moodiness due to lack of emotional regulation, speak to someone and seek help immediately. It's the noble thing to do. As men we need to protect those around us even if it means protecting them from ourselves.

Episode 29 - Comfort Zones

We're always told to break out of our comfort zone and to keep pushing our limits. Although this is great, it sounds f'n exhausting. I think comfort gets a bad rep. I personally don't think there's anything wrong with comfort, but what if we could get comfortable being uncomfortable? I introduce the concept of expanding our comfort zone instead of continually having to push ourselves to jump out of our comfort zone. Perhaps it's the same thing but I'm a big believer of re-framing our thought patterns to live a fulfilling and meaningful life of ease and flow. 

 

What are some things that make you uncomfortable that you've always wanted to try or do but have felt too afraid to make the plunge? Hit me up and let me know @djacie_ 

 

 

Episode 28 - Discipline

Do you struggle with self-discipline? 

Discipline is a dying art in today's modern world of instant gratification. Discipline however is highly regarded as a pillar of divine masculinity and should be observed as such. I go through my own struggles with discipline but share some new techniques that I've picked up lately to keep you on top of your game by breaking bad habits and replacing them with better and most importantly more long lasting and committed habits.

Hit me up @djacie_ and let me know what areas of your life you want to apply more discipline to.

Episode 27 - Men’s Groups

Ever joined a men's group or curious about joining a men's group? I've joined a few, participated in many! I break down the various types that I've had experience in with so if you've ever had any questions about what one is like or what committing to one looks like, then look no further. 

I think men's groups are a great place to connect and grow but you need to be ready for it! Find out how in this episode!

Episode 26 - Attachment Anxiety (Season 4 Premiere)

TMI warning.

 

We're back! By we're back.. I mean I'm back... Inspired to continue creating content I talk about attachment anxiety and how it ruined my relationships and damn near ruined my life and how I learned about attachment styles and what I'm doing to deal with this nagging issue that is rooted in the lack of self-love and self-compassion.

Episode 25 - Fear

What role does fear play in your life as a man? Does it push you forward, does it make you run? How do you handle fear? To what degree do you let it control your life? All extremely important questions to consider when thinking of our life's trajectory and how we let a fearful mindset determine the outcomes of our lives. Fear is not necessarily a bad thing. It is more about our relationship with this emotion that is important to consider.

Episode 24 - Self Compassion

There is no self-love without self-compassion first. We discuss what it means to truly be kind to yourself and how this will change your life going forward in your self-love progression. For men, we are often raised to be tough on ourselves and others while ignoring our own need for psychological safety.

Episode 23 - How Do You Know When You Love Yourself?

Ah... good question. Acie outlines 7 ways that you know that you're progressing on your self-love journey. The good news is that once you truly progress, it is very hard to stumble backwards as we have truly and authentically gained a higher level of self-respect and regard for ourselves that is dependent on us and not on others.
