Talking points: culture, masculinity, the shadow
This was one of those wide-ranging convos that made me lose track of time. David and I cover a ton in this as you’ll see from the timestamps, with some great info on “core energetics”, personality types, and more. Dig in.
(00:00:00) – How David approached interviewing such a polarizing figure, and do all men have such a rigid mask?
(00:09:04) – How do you support men in a way that allows them to actually open up?
(00:15:40) – Is it all just an act, and killing your shadow versus integrating
(00:22:35) – What is core energetics and the five personality “patterns”?
(00:31:10) – Which pattern best describes American culture, and what do you think we need to do?
(00:37:14) – Do we HAVE to play the polarization game to get anywhere?
(00:44:54) – What David would say to men who are hiding opinions that might get them in trouble
(00:58:01) – What is the “lower self”?
(01:07:22) – Advice for men who actively resist their own emotions
