I chose to read and listen to this course as I have issues with emotional stability. I get manic episodes followed by deep lows, not constantly but these leave me in a numb state that persists until the next episode of mania. However, what I learned from this course was deeper than this. With the help of this course and the AI tool, I have now been able to core down to some issues that I thought were in my past, but are still affecting me from deep down. This understanding has allowed me to work through some of these with my partner and my family. I don't have it all sorted, but I have made a real step forward, thanks largely to this course and understanding of my emotions and what they are trying to tell me. Thank you Dan. Your insight has been invaluable to my continuing recovery.

It's that time again - have your say (last one was doing live coaching sessions which we've now started)

When nice guys lose momentum, they usually think the problem is burnout. But most of the time… it's actually something else. In a 1:1 coaching session we did live here in Skool, @Andy Wallam came to me feeling stuck after a rough year. In 2025 he left his safe 9-to-5 job to pursue his creative career. Things were going well. Then he got hit with influenza and COVID back-to-back. Months later his body had recovered, but psychologically he still felt that he identified as “the fatigued guy.” And during the session I pointed out something that might sound a bit brutal: He’d slipped back into a victim mindset. This is incredibly common for recovering nice guys. When momentum breaks, the brain grabs the first excuse it can find and quietly pulls you back into the old identity — the one where life is happening to you instead of because of you. In the session we break down: • Why setbacks can reactivate the victim mindset • How fatigue and imposter syndrome reinforce each other • The uncomfortable phase of becoming a responsible man again If you’ve ever felt like you’re capable of more but somehow keep spinning your wheels, you’ll probably recognise yourself in this conversation. The full coaching session is available, enjoy!

Time for something fun: the "would you rather...?" game! 😁🤔 I'll start us off with a tough one: Would you rather ask out a complete stranger? OR Stand up to a bully who's been bothering you for years? Looking forward to your questions and answers! 👍😎
