Podcast: Play in new window | Download
Not all of us are Navy seals, lion tamers or MMA fighters. But nevertheless, my co-host Anthony Simeone believes all of us are heroes, even if we don’t realize it yet.
In this episode we’ll reveal why real, actual heroism isn’t necessarily ‘larger than life’, and it’s really a lot simpler than you think.
So how about it, what is the biggest nemesis that’s keeping most of us from feeling and acting like heroes nowadays? Does what Anthony calls ‘modern mythmaking’ have anything to do with it?
What is it about superhero movies and anti-hero characters that is so compelling to us as men? As crazy as it sounds, are you actually more of a hero if you embrace your ‘dark side’? And if so, does that mean there’s really a fine line between ‘heroes’ and ‘villains’? Is the opposite of a hero really not a villain at all, but someone else? Let’s just say it’s complicated.
All of this discussion is guaranteed to blow your mind, and that’s even before we draw the comparison between heroism and adventure.
And wait until you discover why heroism might actually be the epitome of self-help.
Of course, we also cover the disarmingly simple art of being a woman’s hero–and how to make it a habit.
