GS Youngblood is the author of “The Masculine in Relationship” which offers a model for conscious masculinity. With The Masculine Blueprint, GS teaches men  to become grounded in their own power while also staying in relationship with their feminine partner. 

GS teaches that many relationship problems are actually rooted in a lack of “Relational Masculinity” which is a combination of groundedness, leadership, and relational skills. He joins me on the show to discuss these topics. 

On this episode, we talk about:
Complacency in Relationships:
Men’s complacency in relationships to avoid becoming complacent.
The importance of being in “directive energy”.
Leadership in Relationships:
Challenges in nurturing leadership roles.
Making decisions without always feeling compelled to do so.
The importance of attunement to your partner when making decisions.
Creating Emotional Safety for your partner
The importance of self-examination and assessment - humility.
Receiving feedback from partners.
Structure in Relationships
Internal and External Structure
Setting boundaries.
Conflict resolution rules.
Taking emotional leadership.
The need for intentional work on emotional intelligence in men.
Operating Styles: Differences between doer/thinker and feeler modes.
Switching to a feeler mode for nourishing relationships.
Embodiment and meditation tips from GS. Focusing on physical sensations versus stopping thoughts during meditation.
Breath Work and Movement recommendations from GS and Ben:
Three Elements of The Masculine Blueprint:
Respond vs. React.
Provide Structure.
Create Safety.
The results: Groundedness, clarity, boundaries, emotional and physical safety in relationships.
