Revitalizing Relationships: A Deep Dive into Masculinity and Power Dynamics with Author Elliott Katz
11/21/23 • 50 min
Have you ever wondered why some relationships thrive while others crumble? Do you sometimes feel perplexed about your role as a man in a relationship? Well, you're not alone, and that's why we brought Author Elliott Katz to shed light on these thought-provoking questions. My stimulating conversation with Elliott revolves around his transformative journey from divorce to self-discovery, and how he evolved into a stronger, more responsible man. Through his books, "Being the Strong Man a Woman Wants: Timeless Wisdom On Being A Man" and "How to Get Your Man to Wear the Pants So You Don't Have To," Elliott unravels the complexities of relationships, masculinity, and the power dynamics between men and women.
In our heart-to-heart chat, we explore and challenge the dynamic of relationships. We take a hard look at the misunderstandings that frequently arise from lack of clear communication and assertiveness. Elliott passionately discusses the critical role of men being decisive and stepping up in relationships. This responsibility, according to him, can positively influence and shape the relationship. We also confront the modern-day conundrum of men being relegated to "mother's helpers" instead of partners, and the potential ways for women to inspire their partners to take an active leadership role.
Finally, we tackle the impact of social media on relationships and the common struggles men face when planning a first date. Elliott generously shares anecdotes from his coaching experience, revealing his strategies for guiding men to become more assertive and responsible in relationships. We also voyage through a myriad of other subjects like public speaking, personal growth, values, and reflections on the world.
This discussion is not just a conversation; it's an invitation to reevaluate and fortify your relationships.
Join me, and let's journey together towards healthier and more fulfilling relationships.

Imagine the fear and confusion of being lost, not recognizing the familiar, and unable to express your plight. This is the daily reality for millions suffering from Alzheimer's and dementia. I sat down with Behavioral Specialist, Certified Dementia trainer, and Author of, “Not All Who Wander Need Be Lost” & “Truth, Lies & Alzheimer’s – Its Secret Faces,” Lisa Skinner, who shared her personal journey navigating her grandmother's Alzheimer's diagnosis. Lisa not only brings an expert's perspective but also a deeply personal understanding of the impact of these diseases on individuals and their families.
Together, we demystify the complex world of Alzheimer's and dementia. With Lisa's help, we untangle common misconceptions and provide clarity on the difference between Alzheimer's and dementia. Did you know that Alzheimer's is one of the leading causes of death among seniors globally? Or that the number of people living with these diseases is set to triple by 2050? Lisa shares these startling facts and more, emphasizing the need for education and more informed medical practices.
In addition, Lisa shares insights on the often-overlooked aspect of Alzheimer's: diagnosing the disease and living with it. She highlights the stages of cognitive decline, the role of certain genes, and the part lifestyle choices play in managing Alzheimer's risk factors. We also explore the potential of stem cell research and we discuss Lisa’s remarkable books, inspired by her experiences.
Engage with us on this journey of understanding Alzheimer's and dementia, and find hope amid the challenges. Be prepared to be enlightened, to learn, and to find solace in the knowledge that you're not alone.
