A man recognizes his responsibility to his purpose and people
Purpose and vision often shift and evolve.
Free energy, permaculture, and the gift economy are examples of how this will look.
The importance of raising consciousness and doing real-life ecological work - like planting trees or cleaning the beach

The solutions are here, and we just need to call it forward.

Your consciousness is determined by how healthy you are
Troy’s advice for how someone without financial resources can change their lives
Figure out what you want, and program your mind to take you in that direction.

MMM 057 - Say-ers, Do-ers, And Be-ers

The Rising Man Podcast

07/29/19 • 11 min

Knowing your place among these 3 states is vital contextual information in the journey of manhood. It requires a healthy sense of self-honesty to move into being a be-er. This final stage of mastery holds such commitment, that they go beyond even needing to try. Deep truth in this one, you won’t want to miss it. Tune in and RISE UP!

Show Notes:

Say-ers have great ideas, but never getting around to executing on them.
Having a great idea never changed the world - the implementation and expression of the idea is the gold.
As soon as we own our words, we become a do-er.
Success is a habit, which is formed by repeated, specific action.
A do-er still has one level to go - by following the path of mastery.
A do-er has to choose, while the be-er has integrated with the practice
Say-ers are still deciding if they are dedicated enough to commit.

Reflection Questions:

Where are you on this spectrum?
Where do you want to be?
Are you committed to moving forward in this process?

MMM 055 - Make Your Plan, Work Your Plan

The Rising Man Podcast

07/15/19 • 12 min

Have you ever had a great idea, made a detailed plan, and then failed to follow through? Have you ever psyched yourself out of something before you even stepped into the ring? If so, then this one’s for you. Resistance can suck, but no other teacher can guide you to greatness. Listen in for Jeddy’s tried and true methods to getting sh*t done.

Show Notes:

Are championships won in practice?
Why we make highly detailed plans and then fail to follow thru
Discoveries about why we falter can suck (to the ego), but are vital.
Resistance is what allows us to be great, to rise above adversity, and to take our game to heights we’ve never seen before
Methods for success: Make commitments and own them. Request accountability and check in with men you trust.

Reflection Questions:

How are YOU showing up when it’s game time?
What is YOUR resistance pattern when it comes to stepping up and leaning in?
Where do YOU tend to lose momentum behind the things that matter to you?
How BAD do you want it?
How much do you really care?
Will I fight my way through this time?
Will I take the punch and find my way back to my feet?

RMP 078 - Feed What You Believe with Leon Ruri

The Rising Man Podcast

07/11/19 • 71 min

Back for his second appearance, Leon Ruri comes on today to re-ignite our inner fires. We discuss the sacred Maori dance, called the Haka, and it’s role in helping men fully express themselves. The intentionality behind ceremonies, finding freedom, and leading with love rather than comparison are among the topics in this episode. Leon’s dedication to raising awareness around men’s mental health is highly admirable, and his drive is contagious. May this episode remind you to fiercely and frequently stand up for what you believe in.

Show Notes:

Why is it so important that men FULLY express themselves?
Society wants men to be a lion in many ways, but aren’t comfortable with hearing the roar.
There is freedom in IMPERFECTION
What is the HAKA really about?
The HAKA has been of great cultural importance to the Maori
Leon is bringing the HAKA to America (Venice Beach, LA) on September 7th, link below
Intention is ultra -important for ceremonies, such as the HAKA.
Cultural Appropriation or Appreciation? How to exchange ideas in a respectful way
Does someone have to go to war in order to call themselves a warrior?
Why spend energy challenging someone over who they say they are?
Why standing for something is stronger than standing against anything

RMP 077 - Tantric Sex Secrets: Taking Back the Taboo with Nic Warner

The Rising Man Podcast

07/04/19 • 54 min

What does the word Tantric Sex bring up for you? For me, it elicits wild sexual scenes for those who have mastered certain techniques by training for years. Nic Warner is here to save the day, because Tantra is much simpler than I thought. It can transform intimacy for us all, no matter how much we know about sex. Our sex lives and our personal power are intimately linked, so this episode goes well beyond the bed. Topics that Nic covers include the importance of presence, rewiring our brains after porn abuse, and why ejaculations and orgasms are separate events.

Shows Notes:

Why is sex associated with being a self initiation into manhood?
How do we teach our children about sex?
Porn is an indicator of where we are on our sexual journey
If you need porn to be aroused, there is some rewiring work to be done
A woman is turned on by presence, not constant movement
The importance of self sexual discovery and knowing our bodies
Making love for the pleasure of it, without needing orgasm
As men we naturally gravitate towards needing an orgasm, ending, or goal
Tantra is a Sanskrit words for “to weave”. If tantra was a forest, sex is just a leaf.
Ejaculation and orgasm are two separate things
The art of semen retention
Tantra goes well beyond sex, it is about expanding your whole life
You have about 5000 ejaculations worth of jing over your lifetime.
Change your relationship with your sexuality, change your life
Being able to control when we ejaculate is not a skill for enlightened masters, we are ALL capable of doing this with a bit of practice and information.

MMM 051 - I Broke My Commitment

The Rising Man Podcast

06/17/19 • 15 min

I broke a commitment ... I gave my word and failed to back it up. Just two weeks ago, I was on the podcast teaching men to be their word. For me to stay within honor and integrity, I need you all to know that I was not that man last week. While it’s been tough as hell, I’m realizing that this mistake is teaching me way more than any victory ever could. In this episode I share with you some of the biggest realizations from the fall-out of my broken commitment.

Show Notes:

Honor is “doing the right thing, even when no one is watching"
Those who know me best know that I am willing to receive a harsh mirror for the sake of discovery. So that I may learn something about myself or my way of being that will empower me to become a better version of me.
Appreciating the fall-out for broken commitments is equally as important as keeping them.
If we put our word on a scale or spectrum, we’ve lost the power behind it from the beginning
Imagine how it feels revealing that I’ve broken a commitment after so recently speaking about this?
Values mean nothing until they are tested under the highest heat
The depth of pain we feel as a result of my own actions is a direct reflection of how much I care
Playing not to lose is NOT winning. Avoiding failure is NOT succeeding.
The greatest lessons are learned in the hardest falls
I can’t make anyone else happy, let alone EVERYONE. My own happiness resides in being who I say I am.
Winning is easy. But, losing...FAILURE...has the power to be a more motivating feeling than winning.
