I have a question about the episode “Be UnF\*CkWithAble!” - Break These “Nice Girl” Habits to Master Confidence, Power, Love & Money and the clip Embracing Emotions. If I have worked super hard on myself physically and mentally for years as a 21-year-old man, why does it sting much more when I open up about my life, values, and passions and still don't achieve a deeper connection? This question relates to the episode “If You're FEELING LOST In Life, Use These SECRETS TO FIND YOURSELF!” | Tim Storey & Lewis Howes and the clip Embracing Vulnerability. Furthermore, how do the concepts discussed in #278: The Ultimate Comeback: Rebuilding Life After Addiction with Donny Starkins and the clip Finding Safety, Sharing Stories apply to this situation?
I have a question about this episode #055: Back By Popular Demand with Amy Young and this Healing Male Emotions. Could you help me understand if my thoughts about gender dynamics in dating, as discussed in the episodes Jameela Jamil: Be Courageous by Being You with Lewis Howes and Embracing Emotional Masculinity, as well as in the Modern Wisdom Podcast episode "Can Men & Women Be Friends Again? - James Smith | Modern Wisdom Podcast 505" and the clip "Feminism and Misinterpretation," are correct? I feel that men have to work hard to gain social status and financial stability to attract women, while women are pursued regardless of their qualities. It seems like there are often many men interested in one woman, giving her the power to choose. I'm frustrated by the idea that men have to chase after women and navigate complex social games to gain their interest. I love women and don't want to have a negative mindset, but sometimes I can't help but feel this way.
