[#247] Letting Go of Outcomes: Free 90min Confidence Building Webinar
28/09/2024 Duración: 01h36minBeing attached to outcomes - results or reactions that are outside of your direct control - causes more suffering than just about anything else you'll ever encounter. Tragically, you're doing this without needing to! In this podcast, I explore the concept of having an emotional attachment (a hopeful expectation) to results that you prefer, and why this is both unnecessary and unhelpful when it comes to building self confidence. We'll explore how to live with integrity and pursue your goals without hoping that things will go "well" and being able to enjoy the process rather than depending on winning.

[#246] Neurodivergent Love: Psychopath (ASPD) x Borderline (BPD) Relationship- Teagan’s story
07/09/2024 Duración: 01h19minI've got a new podcast for you that's here by popular demand. The last podcast I did was with the honest psychopath Jackson Noble, and I got a lot of inquiries about his partner Teagan. People wanted to know what it was like for her to be with an open psychopath, to be in a loving relationship with him, to observe him as a father and a partner, and to know if it's possible to have a healthy and loving relationship with somebody with Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD). Well, Teagan has gracefully agreed to be interviewed and to talk about her experiences openly and honestly. She also identifies as neurodivergent and believes she has Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). And yet she says their relationship is "99% healthy". Together we explored what it means to love when you don't experience emotions deeply, how safe it is to be in a relationship with a psychopath, and how that compares to her previous relationships with neurotypical men. Let's meet her and hear her fascinating story.

[#238] Beyond Dating: The Green Pill integrity-based approach to finding your ideal partner
02/12/2023 Duración: 01h08minIntroducing the Green Pill approach to dating and relationships In this podcast episode we’ll discuss about what I’m going to call the “Green Pill” approach to dating and relationships (as opposed to red pill or blue pill ideologies). I’ve named it that because green seems the right colour to signify integrity, growth, and nature / being natural. So with the Green Pill approach to dating you actually lose the word “dating” altogether because it’s too needy and full of desperation and transactional. It’s a complete paradigm shift away from getting something from other people. Instead, you focus on socializing with integrity. The primary purpose is to impress yourself with valued living. No more seduction techniques, hiding behind texting, sliding into DMs, online dating apps, setting up dates, or going to bars and clubs. Instead you fill your week with hobbies and activities that fulfil you. You turn everything you love into a social event, and you focus primarily on being as honest and brave and transparen

[#236] The Truth About Divorce: An Honest Look at Why 50% of Marriages Fail
12/08/2023 Duración: 01h03minGet your Daily Dose of Integrity with my FREE newsletter here: https://danthecoach.substack.com/ In the USA, divorce rates are 2.9/1000, meaning that 50% of all marriages end in divorce, averaging about 8 years before they crash. And USA is not even as bad as Russia, Maldives and Canada. But does this mean that the Red Pill narrative about how marriage is a bad idea for men is accurate? In India, divorce rates are 0.01/1000, meaning there are almost no divorces. Countries like Italy also do well. So what's really going on here? In this podcast, we'll carefully examine the real data - scientific evidence - about divorce rates, causes of marriage breakdowns, why every country has a different divorce rate, the truth about concepts like "hypergamy" and lack of commitment. And more importantly, we'll do what Red Pillers almost never do - look at the 50% of marriages that last a lifetime, and see what those couples are doing differently and what they believe that keeps their relationships solid.

[#235] The Secret to What Women REALLY Want From a Man
20/06/2023 Duración: 35minJoin The Integrity Army for free group coaching here https://theinspirationallifestyle.com/the-integrity-army-free-group-coaching-with-dan-munro/ Men struggle in dating and relationships to identify what it is exactly that women want from them. We're told a million different things about what's attractive and what creates a connection and how to get a girlfriend or how to make a marriage work. Here's some dating and marriage advice for men: the greatest gift you can give to another person has nothing to do with being impressive. It’s really all about vulnerability and authenticity: letting them into your secret world, where all of your fears and faults are hidden, and allowing them to share theirs in return. It can be as simple as completing a sentence that begins with: “I’ve never told anyone this before, but…” It feels deeply significant and touching when someone shares something that they’ve never revealed to anyone else before. You suddenly have meaning, significance and purpose in your life. You are

[#234] 14 Ethical Marketing Strategies: Sales Tactics Without Manipulation
10/05/2023 Duración: 44minJoin my free group coaching program for confidence and integrity here: https://theinspirationallifestyle.com/the-integrity-army-free-group-coaching-with-dan-munro/ I’ve built a profitable coaching business since 2013 based on my brand of honesty and integrity. Naturally, in the beginning, this caused me some conflict and ethical dilemmas when it came to sales. The marketing tactics and strategies I was taught often conflicted with my values. I was told to create scarcity even when there was abundance. I was pressured to give time constraints even when there was plenty of time. I was advised to dig into my client’s pain points when they were already suffering enough. I thought, “Surely there’s a way to sell my coaching and products without selling my soul! There must be a way to make my sales targets without being salesy, or pushy, or manipulating in a harmful deceitful way.” Thankfully, there is. Selling doesn’t have to include manipulation, game play, seduction, lies, pressure, neediness, cut n paste
