Liberate Your Lifeforce Retreat (Live Q&A Call Recording)

This episode is a very personal story from a workshop I attended 6 weeks ago... During the workshop, I had an experience that broke me open in profound ways that have changed my life for the better. *(Important note below)* And I'm definitely still integrating what happened, but at this point I've spent enough time in integration to feel excited to share the story with you.**IMPORTANT NOTE: What I forgot to mention in the episode was that the experience was so strong for me, I had to spend the rest of that evening back at my AirB&B, going back and forth between laying down on the bed crying with emotional opening/release - and getting up to do intentional movement practice to feel everything fully and integrate. I didn't eat, I didn't distract myself with social media or tech... I just spent the evening & night solo - feeling, integrating and then went to sleep. It felt like the comedown of a profound psychedelic medicine journey... that's the best analogy I can come up with.If you're someone who's interested in personal transformation, and different ways that can happen, I think you'll really enjoy this episode.🔴 - You can also watch this episode on Youtube here.HAVE A QUESTION?I'm open to any questions about anything I shared in this episode (please ask me in a comment on this video). This work is absolutely fascinating to me... and I'm into discussing it with people who are also interested in the world of somatics & transformation.EPISODE TIMES & TOPICS:00:00 Somatics Explained02:53 The Strozzi institute (Where I'm Studying)04:39 Somatic Bodywork Explained06:45 The Story: My Heart-Opening Transformation23:45 Advanced Somatics Retreat Update (Rescheduled)27:40 Sex & Heart (My Biggest Challenge & Growth Areas)30:00 The Potential of Somatics & Movement in Men’s WorkWORK WITH ME:🔸 Liberate Your Lifeforce Retreat (August, 2025): 🔸 Orgasmic Mastery Course (September, 2025):🔸 FREE 7-Day Semen Retention ChallengeTHE STROZZI INSTITUTEIf you want to check them out, here are the courses I've taken with the Strozzi Institute:🔸 Embodied Transformation (April 2023)🔸 Embodied Leadership Pathway (Weekend 1 Only) (September 2024)🔸 Somatic Bodywork (April 2025)🔸 Somatics, Trauma & Resilience (June 2025)The upcoming training I'm taking with Strozzi:🔸 Somatic Coaching Training (October, 2025)*NOTE: Sadly I dropped out of the Embodied Leadership Pathway program because hurricane Helene hit my home in Asheville during the first weekend of the training, and the recovery effort was too intense and all-consuming to do the needed coursework.

What if the reason you keep choosing the wrong partner… is a belief you picked up at five years old? Much of our adult life we're actually acting from unconscious patterns that shape who we’re drawn to, how we show up in relationship, and why many men feel stuck chasing chemistry instead of building conscious connection... THIS is a moment when the boy or the prince within us has to grow up into a man. 🔴 - You can also watch the video interview here on Youtube.This is a rich episode, and I truly hope you get a lot out of it.TIMES & TOPICS:00:00 Intro01:08 Max's Story of Transformation  02:47 What Is a Core Wound?  04:02 Personal Story of a Wound 07:10 How Childhood Shapes Love  08:36 Dating from Your Wounds  10:57 Visualize Your Ideal Partner  13:46 Why We Choose the Wrong People  17:16 Chemistry Isn’t Connection  18:58 Discernment in Dating  25:23 Own Your Truth & Lead  27:04 From Prince to King  34:37 Purpose, Love & Fatherhood  39:23 Leading Your Family as a Man  45:12 Intimacy After Kids & Keeping Desire Alive50:18 Creating Real Chemistry  56:04 Reclaiming Joy  01:00:02 Why Men Need In-Person Work  Thank you Max for taking the time for this chat, and thank YOU for reading this and listening to the episode.

Most men don’t realize what porn is actually costing them… until it’s already showing up in their sex life, motivation, or relationships. *(And, you're not alone, I struggled with this too). I highly recommend listening if you've EVER questioned your use of or relationship with porn...🔴 🎥 - You can also watch this episode on Youtube here.In today's episode, Jeremy (who is a full time Porn Addiction Recovery Coach for men) and I dive into:✅ - How watching porn (even when it seems “normal”) can quietly drain your vitality, confidence, sexual performance and your connection to what really matters... ✅ - How to help you identify whether or not you have a problematic and/or addictive relationship with porn...✅ - What to do about it - how to stop watching porn (if you want to)✅ - How to create a healthy and thriving life & sex life without porn--------You'll hear personal stories from both of us... (we were both addicted), you'll get new ways to think about sex and arousal, and you'll get practical tools you can start using today - to transform any behavior you want INTO a healthy choice that supports the life you want to live.To be very clear: this conversation is NOT going to shame you or guilt trip you - it's here to help us men navigate one of the most alluring and destructive forces on the planet (porn).

So many men get it wrong in the bedroom... Trying to be nice... Unsure of how to take the lead... And even ashamed of their own desire... If you've ever felt these ways, you’re not alone (and I have to regularly work on this too). In this episode, Layla Martin and I dive deep into how you can sexually unleash your primal masculine energy - in a way that’s bold, conscious, attuned, and deeply sexy.🔴 🎥 You can also watch this episode on Youtube.In this episode you'll discover why women crave a man’s powerful presence - one that combines focus, strength, desire, the ability to ravish with care... And you'll discover how to embody it in a way that transforms your sexual relationships and ignites desire.You'll also learn a transformative practice Layla calls “fuck and kill to consciousness,” which will probably be really confronting for you - in a good way... It's an exercise to help you integrate your raw, primal instincts and channel them into connection, confidence, sexual pleasure and leadership in the bedroom.This episode is your invitation to stop holding back, to own your power unapologetically, and show up as the man you’re truly capable of being — magnetic, present, powerful and unforgettable.
