Oooh this is a juicy one this week!!  

In 2022, I met Anthony Hopson at the week-long Hoffman Process retreat.  We instantly connected and have gone on to have a really treasured friendship since. 

Anthony has a background in finance, and still runs his business in that space.  In recent years, he has expanded his horizons by becoming a certified counsellor, and breathwork practitioner.  He runs mens’ circles and is also planning a retreat for men later on this year.

Anthony is very open about his own personal development journey, and is passionate about supporting men to be fully themselves; and have connected, fulfilling relationships with their intimate partners.

In our conversation, we discuss: 
His own healing journey 
The "aim" of men’s work
His interpretation of healthy masculinity
The most common challenges he sees men experiencing 
The greatest fears men hold 
Polarity and why it has such influence on relationships 
The issues men often have with their intimate relationships 
The genius tip I heard recently to help men support their partners work through problems
The Rocking Chair Test
What guys actually want from their partners 
For those of us mothering boys, what can we do to set them up for being healthy men



The resources we mention are:
The Holistic Psychologist: instagram.com/the.holistic.psychologist
The Secure Relationship: instagram.com/thesecurerelationship
The Way Of The Superior Man, David Deida
Dear Lover, David Deida
Beyond Mars & Venus, John Gray
12 Rules For Life, Dr. Jordan B. Peterson
The Gottman Institute resources 



You can find Anthony and details of his mens’ offerings on Instagram -instagram.com/the_urbanbroker. 

My Bali retreat is happening again in October!  You can find out all about it here: lorrainemurphy.com.au/retreat-2024

AND I’m hosting my first Aussie retreat in a very long time.  Haven is happening on the NSW Central Coast in November, and Anthony is hosting a breathwork session.  Find out more here: lorrainemurphy.com.au/haven
