Loss and Renewal

Leading a Fulfilled Life

The Dudes take on a big one! A fulfilled life cannot be described in a single episode, however the breadcrumbs are on the trail and we are ready to keep following a path to which there is no finish line. Why do it? Because we and the ones we love are worth it. A retreat to explore it even deeper is on June 7, 8 and 9th (2024) in Danville, CA. OB and SWAZ hope to see you there.

Loss and Renewal

Swaz and OB review a loss of man's best friend (Indy). They are encouraged to know that what they are doing matters. Dudes Assisting Dudes begins with them being there for each other on the other's journey. When imposter syndrome or unhealthy assumptions break into the room, it's like a game of "Whack a Mole". It's a game that we back away from and be present.

Dudes and Their Dads

OB and Swaz discuss their relationship with their fathers'. So many men have wrestled with this very impactful relationship. There's no denying the influence of our father's. The fact is, a piece of them resides within us. Some people have called an aspect of this relationship, the "Dad Wound". We can be curious as to how we connect and carry this important relationship, whether they are alive or have passed on. It's never too late to have a relationship that you can live with and at the same time, wish was something else. The father/parent/guardian and son relationship is dynamic, complicated and impactful. Two Dudes honors your journey and we realize it is uniquely yours. As always, we can be reached a wedoinstitute@gmail.com

Coping Skills In Real Time

The dudes share some thoughts and coping skills for the daily invitations that may require a pause... and then a response. We create new opportunities when we break tendencies that may not be in our best interest.

Taking it Seriously and Holding it Lightly

OB and Swaz engage in a candid conversation about finding a balance between taking life seriously and holding it lightly. The discussion revolves around the idea of approaching life with a sense of responsibility and purpose while also maintaining a lighthearted perspective. The hosts explore topics related to personal growth, relationships, and navigating major life change with resilience. By sharing insights and anecdotes, they aim to inspire fellow dudes to connect and grow.
