#8: Stop Letting Rejection Control You with Whit

Rejection sucks. But for most people, rejection isn’t the real problem. Their relationship with rejection is. In this solo episode, I’m talking about why rejection hits so hard, why so many people build watered-down lives just to avoid hearing “no,” and how to stop letting rejection define you. I really believe, if you want anything meaningful in life, rejection is part of the deal. Relationships, business, creativity, putting yourself out there… all of it. The goal isn’t to avoid rejection. It’s to learn how to use it In this episode I cover: Why rejection feels personal How we attach rejection to our worth Why fear of “no” keeps people small How to reframe rejection into feedback How to stop spiraling after setbacks Using rejection to build confidence Why hearing no can actually prove you care How to keep going when it sucks This one is honest, edgy, and for anyone tired of letting rejection run their damn life! like me!  Subscribe, share, like, comment...I love hearing from yall and it really does help the show more than anything else!

#7: Want To Write A Book?? with The Book Coach Rea Frey

Ep 7: Want to write a book? You need to hear this no BS advice. In this episode, I sit down with a book coach and “book doula”Rea Frey, who has helped 500+ first-time authors land literary agents, score six-figure book deals, and hit #1 bestseller lists and she does not sugarcoat anything! After getting burned by her own bad publishing experience, she went all in on learning the industry from the inside out. Since then, she’s built a multiple six-figure business helping authors avoid the same mistakes and stop walking blindly into publishing. She’s also written eight traditionally published novels, has seen books win big, watched others flop, and knows exactly where people get it wrong. This is the real conversation most aspiring authors need before they waste time, money, and years.  We get into: The real truth about writing a book What nobody tells first-time authors Traditional publishing vs self-publishing How to know if your book idea is actually good Why some books blow up and others die quietly How to get a book deal The mistakes that waste years What it really takes to finish and publish a book If you’ve been saying “I want to write a book someday”… this is your sign to get honest before diving headfirst.

Ryan Meyer: Why Men & Relationships Feel Off Right Now

Part 1: Our favorite rock drummer, and unofficial therapist, Ryan Meyer is back for a real, unfiltered conversation about masculinity, identity, and why so many people feel disconnected right now. We get into what’s happening with young men. Like the lack of grounded role models, the influence of the Manosphere, and the pressure to figure out who they’re supposed to be in a world that keeps shifting. And … how that’s showing up in relationships. We talk about: - What healthy masculinity actually looks like - Why young men feel lost or confused right now - The rise of the Manosphere documentary (and why it’s gaining traction) - Relationship roles — and how they’ve changed - The disconnect between men and women today - Confidence vs ego vs emotional intelligence - Pregnancy, productivity, and the pressure to keep up This isn’t about blaming men or women. It’s about understanding what’s missing and how we can actually show up better for ourselves and each other. If you’ve felt like something is off in dating, relationships, or just the way people are navigating life right now… this conversation will land.
