I’m holding space this month around our significant other in our lives. Whether you are looking for space to be held or still looking for the one, let’s support each other. I’ve been married for 23 years with 5 kids. We have been through the highs and lows, and will continue connecting and moving through my marriage. Who’s ready to join me in learning how the Man OS can support you in improving your relationship?

Last week I celebrated my 50th. Birthdays have never been a huge event for me. Another day. Nice dinner, maybe a few presents from my family. Then it's over, no worries. I think there was some external factors with work, my physical state (lack of sleep), but the day was off and I didn't feel right. The morning started with our local Expanse face to face meetup with @Jared Johnson and @Chance Lundgren . Good discussions as always. Afterwards I hung back with Jared. We talked a bit. I decided I needed a massage to try to unwind and he called around and got one booked for me. That was amazing and thanks to Jared for making that happen. I went to lunch with my 2 brothers. Came home and pretty much just chilled with my family . I wasn't feeling great so we ended up not going out, just watching some movies with my wife and kids. My wife had asked that morning what I wanted to do for my bday and I just said "for noone to demand or need things from me" it was said with a little sarcasm, but was the honest truth. That was Friday. The weekend was pretty calm, just hanging out with the family. My mother-in-law came for a nice Easter dinner. Not even sure what I'm sharing here other than I wanted to acknowledge @Jared Johnson for pushing me to just go do what felt right in the moment. I don't really understand why the day felt so heavy (and still not sure). I think there's some frustration and anger around where I expected and thought life would look a lot different at 50 than it does. I am often torn between doing what I want vs what's expected. I know if I get really poor sleep it can send my emotions haywire, but is that just because I'm really tired? Or is it because if I'm not tired I can more effectively suppress those emotions? And yes, I'm open to anything anyone wants to throw at me 😁.

Wassup @Adam Streuer @Nathaniel Kressen & @Rodney Mahabir. Great to have you in here. Feel free to drop an intro and share where you're at. Physically, Emotionally, Geographically...let's hear it.

Hey Men of The Expanse! I’m stepping into a conversation this week that feels incredibly relevant right now. On April 8th, I’ll be facilitating a live workshop inside the Entheo Breath Skool community, led by our fellow expanse member @Ankhara Akeru . Some of you already know him. He’s been showing up fully in The Expanse space, and he’s been doing powerful work building his own community. He invited me in to speak on something that sits at the core of everything we do here: Emotions. More specifically:Why Emotional Navigation matters… and why it’s becoming essential in the world we’re living in today. Most men were never taught how to work with emotion. So what happens? We override.We suppress.We misinterpret.We react. Not because something is wrong with us…Because we were never given language or structure. This session is going to open that up. We’ll explore: • What emotions actually are (from a functional lens) • Why they are signals, not problems • How misreading them creates unnecessary friction in life and relationships • What it looks like to navigate emotion instead of trying to control it This is fare from theory.This is practical.This is usable. 🗓 April 8th⏰ 10AM Central / 11AM Eastern If you feel called to expand your understanding here, come through. Drop a comment or DM me and I’ll send you the link to join the Entheo Breath space. It is free! Let’s keep Expanding.

Welcome to The Expanse. We’re glad you’re here. This is a grounded space for men who want more clarity and trust in how they move through life. Together. With other men. Men of all sizes, shapes, colors, races, ethnicities, nationalities, religions, orientations, preferences, beliefs, and proclivities are welcomed and encouraged to be here. You don’t need to perform. You don’t need to posture. You don’t need to have it figured out. You do need to be willing to engage with honesty, responsibility, and respect. Our Core Skool Participation Values 1. Presence Over Performance We value real presence over polished takes. You don’t get points for sounding smart. You get traction by being honest. Short, imperfect, and true beats long, impressive, and disconnected. 2. Responsibility Without Shame We speak from our own experience, not about what others “should” do. Ownership is encouraged.Blame is unnecessary.Shame is not a teaching tool here. 3. Clarity Over Catharsis This is not a venting ground. Emotion is welcome.Clarity is the aim. Posts that move toward insight, awareness, or next action are the lifeblood of this space. 4. Together, Not Alone Lurking is allowed. Participation is encouraged. You don’t need to lead conversations to belong here.But this space works best when men are willing to witness and be witnessed. A simple “I relate” can be enough. 5. Quality Over Quantity We protect the signal. Posts that are thoughtful, specific, and grounded are prioritized.Low-effort, off-topic, or repetitive content may be redirected or removed to maintain coherence. This is how we respect everyone’s time. 6. Practice Over Theory Insight matters. Implementation matters more. We value: - What you noticed - What you tried - What shifted - What didn’t work Progress beats perfection. Engagement Principles (How We Use the Space) - Questions > Statements - Experience > Advice - Curiosity > Certainty - Dialogue > Monologue - Consistency > Intensity This is a living system. You're not here to consume content. You're here to install a way of relating to yourself and other men.
