100. Masculinity

101. Vulnerability

" Vulnerability is this beautifully honest space where we say, this is me, warts and all, beyond my achievements, my failures, my fears, and that I'm okay being me." This week on Universal Man, Grego and Pricey explore vulnerability as a brave, honest space; not weakness; not whinging; and definitely not oversharing. They unpack how vulnerability is the doorway to authenticity, better relationships, and stronger leadership through building trust, cutting through ego, and helping you live on your own terms, with more freedom, connection, and peace. If you keep hiding behind ego, comparison, or the tough-guy mask, you'll stay stuck and disconnected, and quietly carrying the load alone. Listen in for practical ways to say "I don't know", admit "I'm not okay" and find real freedom. http://universalman.org/podcast/vulnerability [http://universalman.org/podcast/vulnerability] REGISTER FOR OUR NEXT CAMP IN YOUR AREA: universalman.org/camps [https://www.universalman.org/camps/] In this episode we talk about: * What vulnerability really means and what it's not. * Why "I don't know" builds trust, wisdom, and authentic leadership. * How ego, comparison and jealousy block connection and freedom. * The difference between vulnerability and oversharing or attention-seeking, and * Saying "I'm not okay"; creating brotherhood, support, and real strength.

99. Encounters with the heart

" Everyone is their own spiritual guru in their own particular way. That's what it's all about, finding your way to find the spirit within you that gives you life, that gives you a sparkle in the eye." This week on Universal Man, Grego sits down with Pricey to unpack what it really means to encounter the heart; that deeper place of purpose, spirit and meaning that keeps you grounded when life pulls you into constant doing and thinking. They explore how silence, rhythm and simple rituals can bring you back to your authentic self. Ignore this space and you risk drifting, reacting and feeling disconnected from who you are. But when you take time to slow down, simplify and create still moments, your heart becomes alive again; guiding you with clarity, presence and a renewed sense of flow. http://universalman.org/podcast/encounters-with-the-heart [http://universalman.org/podcast/encounters-with-the-heart] REGISTER FOR OUR NEXT CAMP IN YOUR AREA: universalman.org/camps [https://www.universalman.org/camps/] In this episode we talk about: * How to reconnect with your heart to restore purpose and life flow. * Daily rhythms and rituals that bring stillness, silence and inner presence. * Distinguishing true spirituality from institutional religion and external rules. * Practical ways to slow down, simplify and counter modern overstimulation, and * Teaching children stillness, connection and heart-centred living through nature and ritual.
