Snuggle up everyone, it's story time. I’ve always loved water. Jumping into it. Swimming in it. Just being near it. In New Zealand we have this beautiful, slightly unhinged tradition called bombing - jumping into water in a way that creates the biggest splash possible. Not graceful. Not elegant. The goal is chaos. Noise. Water everywhere. The other day I was down at the waterfront at a local swimming-and-jumping spot. It’s one of those places where there are always a few locals who are elite bombers. Huge splashes. Professional commitment. Years of aquatic nonsense under their belts. I wanted to bomb. But then the old fear showed up. What if my splash is tiny? It will be tiny What if people laugh? What if I do this big dramatic leap… and it’s basically a sad puddle? I stood there overthinking the physics of water displacement like my integrity depended on it... Then, I called - bullshit Something clicked from the social confidence challenge Instead of trying to avoid people laughing at me, I reframed it. “What if this is rejection therapy?” “How many rejections can I get?” “How many people can laugh at me today?” Suddenly it wasn’t about the splash anymore. It was about collecting laughs. So I jumped. Bombed. Jumped again. Bombed again. Rather than laughing, people started giving me tips. Sure their were some laughs. But from me, no hesitation. No build-up. Just over and over. Big ones. Awkward ones. Questionable ones. Absolute chaos. And here’s the weird thing. Somewhere along the way, my splash got… better. Not only that - the big splash locals started nodding. Smiling. One even threw out a compliment or a clap. Who knew? Possibly Dan. Now I bomb freely. Joyfully. With confidence. And if someone laughs? Perfect. Ill try to drop some vids at some stage. There is a local council run bomb competition. I'm entering.

Hey everyone, I’ve just released a brand-new feature inside the Brojo Classroom — something many of you voted for — and it’s finally live: The Road Map: Guide for Your Self Development. This roadmap is designed to take all the guesswork out of your personal growth. Instead of wondering “What should I focus on next?” or bouncing between random courses and content, you now have a step-by-step pathway that adapts to wherever you currently are in your life. Think of it like a “choose-your-own-adventure” for your self-development. Here’s what it lets you do: ✔ Identify the right area to focus on first Using an advanced interpretation of Maslow’s hierarchy, the roadmap helps you pinpoint which layer of your life needs attention right now—from basic survival needs all the way up to mission and purpose. ✔ Follow a structured, chronological pathway You’ll be guided chapter-by-chapter through the stages: - Survival - Basic stability - Social and relationships - Confidence, boundaries, philosophy - Higher-level mission and integrity No more skipping ahead to “advanced” topics while struggling with basic foundations. The system keeps your growth in the correct order so you actually progress instead of spinning in circles. ✔ Get curated course recommendations Each chapter contains: - A short video tackling that specific need (The Road Map acts as a course on it's own) - A description of the indicators that you’re in that stage - A list of the best courses for exactly that problem Whether you’re working on money, dating, boundaries, leadership, or mission — you’ll know which course to take next. ✔ Move at your own pace Finish a course, return to the roadmap, choose the next step, and continue leveling up. The whole thing is designed to be simple, linear, and easy to follow without overwhelming you. ✔ Optional personal guidance

This time last year, I was in the Brojo Brotherhood hotseat, digging into an age-old question: is it possible to maintain my integrity in a romantic relationship? My fledging state of wholeness was hard-won: I had recently overcome bipolar, after an intensive, self-prescribed mental health bootcamp Brojo-style. I was single, so my relationship question was theoretical but hopeful. A year later, my question is still burning but very much a reality, so I’m back in Brojoland to help me navigate this challenging terrain. After thirty years of avoiding interpersonal discomfort and complexity, training myself to sustain healthy boundaries in the face of love that turns me to mush calls for some industrial-strength support. When the stakes are high, 1:1 coaching with Dan is the best tool for the job and well worth the investment. In just one session, his expertise efficiently cut through the noise in my head to the heart of the issue, leaving plenty of time for constructive reframing and practical steps - reminding my why I trust this dude with my life. If you’re interested in my story of how thirty years of bipolar type two + two months of Dan Munro = no more bipolar, my memoir The Integrity Cure has just been released. You can get your dose in paperback, ebook or audio at donellemckinley.com/memoir-bipolar/

We often believe being a people-pleaser helps others, but are we sure? This video explores how our actions, like cheering up the sad or giving unsolicited advice, might actually hinder growth and healing, preventing others from finding their own solutions and experiencing personal triumph.
