My first time guest Sanya Bari is a relationship therapist and emotional clarity expert…which given she’s from New Jersey means she’s in high demand.
She asked a dangerous question: What keeps men from thriving? To get the show rolling, Sanya riffs away on what her findings were.
So what is the difference between merely surviving and thriving? What is the real “drug” that keeps us from being our best selves? (Hint: It’s not booze or ganja.) What about being “locked in” to a project or goal? Is that a good or a bad thing?
If you “survive” effectively enough, others may actually give you accolades for it. But what’s the danger behind that mindset? Why does Sanya believe that most guys really don’t even realize when they’re slipping into “survival mode”? And how to we recover from that and get ourselves back?
How do we handle seeing everyone else’s “highlight reels” on Facebook knowing that we’re NOT okay? How do the mixed messages we as men get about emotions and logic affect us…especially in our relationships with women?
What is the habit nearly everyone in Western culture has gotten into nowadays that represents the exact opposite of thriving…yet people seem to like it that way?
Next, the surprising truth about how failure to thrive may indeed be passed on generationally. How do you break that cycle?
When it comes to relationships with women, how do we keep entering into relationships with women that exhaust us and hold us back rather than helping us thrive?
