Are you really good at finding solutions to problems?

Most men are. Humans are amazing in their capacity to come up with solutions, but this can sometimes be detrimental. 

One thing I’ve noticed is that most men are so conditioned to focus on finding answers to problems, that they don’t allow themselves to process the feelings that surround the problems.

A lot of men think they shouldn’t ever feel certain ways. They shouldn’t feel anger, they shouldn’t feel rage, they shouldn’t feel sadness.

This is where we can learn to hold space for ourselves. 

We are human beings who have feelings and these emotions can’t be dealt with from the outside. We have to go in. We must be present, surrender to the process and allow those emotions to do what they need to do. 

In this episode, I talk about how I’ve learned to sit with my feelings instead of trying to make them go away or find a cognitive solution. 

Once we properly acknowledge, process and express the emotions going on inside us, we can look at the situations we’re facing with a fresh set of eyes. Then, the solutions come.
