Powerful at Work, Powerless at Home: Leading a Strong Woman with GS Youngblood | Infinite Devotion Episode 152
I haven't had a guest on this show in over a year. I decided I'd only bring someone on if I really wanted to talk to them, and it took a year to find that person. GS Youngblood is the author whose books I've bought and given away more than anyone else's, and when he talks to men about relationships, you can hear that he has lived every word.
GS spent seventeen years in the tech industry before a divorce left him feeling like a failure and sent him looking for a better way. Twenty years of study, and a thirteen-year relationship with a woman who carries both a strong feminine and a strong masculine, became the laboratory for his Masculine Blueprint: three elements that, embodied daily, put a man back in his masculine core and let his woman feel safe enough to open.
In this episode we get into:
Why so many men run teams at work and fold the moment their woman gets upset
Respond versus react, and why good intentions vanish the second the fight starts
The little boy trying to get out of trouble, and where that "oh shit" feeling really comes from
"I may or may not be the problem, but I am the solution," and how to take full responsibility without drowning in blame
The trifecta of embodiment practice, therapy, and coaching
How to feel deeply without becoming the "emotional flow boy," and what it means to hold your emotions and share them judiciously
Logistical, emotional, and sexual leadership, and why all of it starts with inner clarity
What to do when she asks you to lead and then shoots down every attempt
