In this episode host Dawn reconnects with repeat guest Dustin Lea Wheeler, the visionary founder of Wired for Worthiness. They delve into the transformative journey of personal growth and emotional healing, discussing the importance of conscious connections and the power of emotions in shaping our experiences. Dustin shares her profound insights on navigating life's challenges, the significance of gratitude, and the necessity of acknowledging and feeling our emotions to foster genuine joy and creativity.



KEY TAKEAWAYS


Acknowledge that you are the primary creator of your emotions. Understanding this allows you to consciously choose how you want to feel and what you want to create in your life.


Engaging with a supportive community can help you navigate your journey of personal transformation.


Many individuals carry trauma and conditioning that dictate their current emotional responses. Recognizing that these are not fixed identities but rather learned behaviours can empower you to let go of them and create new ones.


Expanding your emotional vocabulary is essential for personal growth. By identifying and practicing emotions like gratitude and appreciation, you can shift your focus from negative feelings to more positive ones.


Simply changing your mindset is often insufficient if your emotional state is rooted in past trauma. Understanding the connection between emotions and the subconscious can help you rewire your responses and create a more positive emotional landscape.



BEST MOMENTS

"This is what changed my level to experience and receive and enhance my life in acknowledging and being present in the moment, no matter what my moment is, more so than I've ever been in my life."

"From before you were in your body. Energy is neither destroyed or created. You just have always, you are it."

"We're told to fix the problem, you know, go get a career, get a job, make money."

Stories of struggles and triumphs in love, sex, and relationships along with expert advice to create more conscious connections 

Stories of struggles and triumphs in love, sex, and relationships along with expert advice to create more conscious connections&nbsp;

Wake Up to Real Love

The Hero's Journey: Embracing Your Inner Magic and Creative Flow

In this episode, Dawn welcomes Bryan Reeves, an internationally renowned author and coach focused on helping men improve their lives and relationships. Bryan shares his transformative journey from a U.S. Air Force captain to a leader in men's personal growth, discussing the challenges of disconnection and the importance of emotional safety in relationships. They discuss the struggles men face in expressing their emotions, the impact of generational trauma, and the need for deeper connections. Bryan emphasizes the significance of radical responsibility and the journey toward understanding real love, which he defines as a ferocious and discerning force that maintains boundaries while fostering connection. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS


Many men experience a profound disconnection from their emotions and bodies, often leading to feelings of numbness and existential crises. This disconnection can stem from societal conditioning that teaches men to suppress their feelings, resulting in challenges in intimate relationships.


Emotional safety is crucial for both men and women in relationships. Men often underestimate the importance of creating a safe space for their partners to express themselves, which can lead to feelings of insecurity and disconnection.


Engaging with other men in group settings can help individuals realize they are not alone in their struggles. Hearing others' stories fosters a sense of connection and can soften defenses, making it easier to explore deeper emotional issues.


Taking responsibility for one's actions and their impact on relationships is essential for personal growth. Many men initially resist this idea, often blaming external factors for their relationship issues, but true progress comes from acknowledging and owning their role in the dynamics.


Relationships require a delicate balance between emotional connection and personal freedom. Both partners must actively work to support each other's needs, recognizing that while love can be nurturing, it also requires boundaries and discernment to maintain a healthy dynamic.

BEST MOMENTS

"I had a bit of a nervous breakdown, like 30 days into that journey in North Wales, because I didn't know who I was anymore."

"My father has a couple of brothers and they're all just, they're a wreck in my judgment. You know, as men, they're just, they're just not men I've ever been able to look up to."

"The psychologist Terry Reel, he says, the original wound in men is disconnection. We're taught early to disconnect from our feelings, from our emotions, from what's really going on inside of us. And so then naturally we're going to turn into adults who don't know how to connect."

"Do you think that woman has ever in her lifetime felt really safe to say no? Not just with you, but with every other man and every other scenario."

Redefining Love: Bryan Reeves Explores the Strength and Complexity of Real Relationships

In this episode, Dawn engages in a deep and insightful conversation with Dwayne Klassen, an author and speaker known as the coach for men. Dwayne shares his journey of creating the Remarkable Man movement, which aims to inspire men to become champions for women, heroes to children, and brothers to each other. They delve into the complexities of masculine and feminine energy, the challenges men face in relationships, and the importance of self-love and personal growth. Dwayne reflects on his own life experiences, including the profound impact of discovering he was not the biological father of a child he had raised, and how this shaped his understanding of identity and purpose. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS


A central theme is the necessity of loving oneself, as many people prioritize loving others over their own well-being. This self-love is crucial for healthy relationships.


Many men lack positive role models, which can lead to feelings of inadequacy and confusion about their identity. The absence of guidance can result in men struggling to navigate their emotions and relationships.


Relationships often serve as a mirror for unresolved childhood wounds. Understanding these wounds can help individuals recognize patterns in their behavior and relationships, leading to personal growth.


In relationships where one partner is committed to personal growth while the other is not, it can create a misalignment. It's essential for both partners to engage in mutual growth for the relationship to thrive.


Romantic relationships are often conditional, and the pressure can disproportionately fall on men to fulfill certain roles. Recognizing this dynamic can help individuals understand the complexities of their relationships and the importance of mutual support.

BEST MOMENTS

"I've been a serial entrepreneur most of my life. And I've had some great successes, and I've had some epic failures. And we learn from it all."

"There's a Buddhist philosophy that says that we choose our parents. And so in a moment of reflection, I realised that this child chose me to be his father."

"If you feel that something's not right, chances are you're absolutely right."

"I think our purpose in life is to love ourselves. And it's one of the toughest things for people to do. We can love everyone outside of ourselves."

The Quest for Self-Love: Dwayne Klassen Discusses the Importance of Inner Work for Men

In this episode Dawn welcomes Lorna Gale, a sex and spirit alchemist, to explore the complexities of sexuality, intimacy, and personal empowerment. Lorna shares her journey of awakening to her sexuality after years of disconnection, emphasizing the importance of consent and the need for open conversations about sex. They both delve into the societal conditioning that shapes our understanding of gender roles, the impact of trauma on sexual expression, and the necessity of reconnecting with our bodies and emotions.



KEY TAKEAWAYS


Many individuals grow up with limited or inadequate sexual education, leading to feelings of shame and disconnection from their own bodies and sexuality.


Consent is a foundational aspect of healthy relationships and sexual experiences. It is crucial to establish a sense of consent that empowers individuals to express their needs and desires without feeling obligated to please others at the expense of their own comfort.


Individuals can experience a sexual awakening at any stage in life, which can lead to a deeper understanding of their bodies and desires.


Both men and women possess masculine and feminine energies that can be integrated for healthier relationships.


Many people carry trauma related to their sexuality, which can manifest in various ways, including feelings of shame and disconnection. Addressing and healing from these traumas is essential for individuals to reconnect with their true selves and experience intimacy in a fulfilling way.



BEST MOMENTS

"It's not about giving women power, it's about recognizing the power that's all"

"There's yang masculine and yang yin masculine. that yang masculine, or the yin feminine, is that flow, that nurturing, that creativity."

"I feel like because we are conditioned to just live up in our head, so we have this disconnection from our body, we have this disconnection from our emotions"

BEST MOMENTS
"It's not about giving women power, it's about recognizing the power that's all"
"There's yang masculine and yang yin masculine. that yang masculine, or the yin feminine, is that flow, that nurturing, that creativity."
"I feel like because we are conditioned to just live up in our head, so we have this disconnection from our body, we have this disconnection from our emotions"
