Redefining Masculinity: A Conversation on Men's Work and Vulnerability with Bob Conlin & Alex Terranova

Listen Now:

About the episode:

I’m beyond honored to have Bob Conlin and Alex Terranova, co-founders of The Alchemy of Men, on the show today. In their work, they’ve created a community and path to support men in discovering their authentic selves, evolving from boys to men, becoming more self-expressed, and building lives they can be proud of. Alex, Bob, and I used to be leaders together in Accomplishment Coaching, where we all individually trained as coaches together, served in different roles, and partnered in many different ways. We have a lot of experience knowing one another in multiple capacities, and I hope this is evident throughout the episode. I ask them a lot of deep questions about their work as it’s so important and needed in today’s world. In their work, Alex and Bob are cracking the door open for men to show them what is possible if they can tear down their walls. They know that getting men to show up to their retreats is the hardest part – because they have found that once they are there, it’s easy for the facades to fade and allow a new version of masculinity to appear. I can’t wait for you to tune in and find your own favorite takeaways.

 

Topics discussed:

  • Believing that we get to choose who we are and how we see the world, and for men, trusting that the definition of traditional masculinity can be changed and improved upon
  • The transformation that Alex and Bob themselves have gone through, how it’s impacted their own friendship, and the lessons they now take into their work with their clients   
  • How Alex and Bob support their clients in facilitating breakthroughs in their lives, knocking down walls, and opening their hearts during their retreats, especially as it’s brand new territory for most 
  • The power of letting go of your ego and surrendering to what you don’t know, and why it’s probably easier than you believe it is 
  • Letting go of everything you may think about what it means to be a man to create the space for reinvention and undoing to flow through 
  • How we can create safe space in supporting our partners to ask for help, create an equal relationship, and rewrite the norms of power dynamics

A Guide to Navigating Career Transitions as an Empath

If you’ve been tuning into the podcast recently, you’ve likely noticed that I’ve been doing things a little bit differently. I have been sharing some of my most favorite and powerful tools, frameworks, and coaching distinctions that I use with my clients and myself as I’ve been sitting with the despair, grief, and fear of what’s going on in my own country and cultures around the world. This week is no different – I want to share what can support you in a changing and unpredictable job market and periods of transition in your career, whether you’re at a place of wanting to finally leave the nine to five and pursue your own entrepreneurial dream, whether you have been laid off in this current job market, whether you’ve been fired, or whether you’ve chosen to see yourself out. These tools and exercises that I’m sharing with you today have been some of the most impactful for my clients in navigating periods of transition in the job market with intentionality, with purposefulness and with integrity. I hope you find today’s episode not only useful but as a tool to bring you a bit of peace and direction.
