Alright guys, based on your votes earlier, you can now nominate other people in Brojo to receive free courses, books and more. This is your chance to serve others with just a few taps on the keyboard. Every so often, I'll do a post like this asking you to nominate someone, and that person will get a free gift. How to do it: comment below this post and tag someone in the comment (use the @ feature), with why you want to nominate them, e.g. "I nominate @Daniel Munro because his recent post about Stoicism helped me make a breakthrough" I'll review nominations and contact the nominees privately to offer them a free course or book or whatever I have going on at the moment. Go for it!

I’m considering running a small coaching cohort in April. This would be a 1-month intensive behaviour-focused group, based on the core work I do with clients around confidence and integrity building through action. It wouldn’t be a course or passive content thing. More like a structured month of doing the work together with a small group of men. A few details if I run it: • Small group (limited spaces) - probably maxium 5 people • Live coaching sessions twice per week focused on each person taking a small but significant action within 24 hours • Direct feedback from me • Lifetime access to the Brojo courses afterwards Because of the nature of the work, I’ll probably keep it invitation-only rather than opening it publicly. Right now I’m just gauging interest. If this is something you’d seriously consider joining in April, comment below or message me and I’ll keep you in the loop when details are finalized. Dan

What if, by trying to avoid rocking the boat, you actually make it sink. If you’re like most nice guys and people pleasers, you’ve probably been walking on eggshells in your relationship to avoid upsetting your partner and to prevent conflict. You choose your words carefully. You avoid certain topics. You anticipate and prevent problems from happening. You pretend to agree with things. You follow rather than lead. You are generally just trying to keep the peace all the time, and you probably pat yourself on the back for doing it. But I’ll bet you’ve noticed something that’s pretty frustrating: Not only is this not working, the conflicts are getting worse as time passes. So either the drama keeps happening anyway—it’s just a different type of drama—or other problems are starting to emerge. Even if it looks like the two of you are reasonably conflict-free and things look okay on the surface, things like intimacy, respect, and knowing who you are are starting to deteriorate, or have gotten really bad over time. You start to feel resentful, highly anxious, feel like you’re kind of being eroded away, and you get a sense of dread that things are never going to get better—that you’re trapped in a prison and there’s really no way out. There’s this kind of paradox, or this trap, where you feel like you’re doing everything right and being a good person, and yet there’s constant tension. It feels like the problem never gets solved. In today’s podcast episode, we’re going to break down why walking on eggshells not only doesn’t work, it’s actually one of the main causes of conflict and tension in a relationship. We’re going to break down what it means to walk on eggshells, what it looks like, why it happens, how you became a person who does this, why it doesn’t work, why it backfires on you, and a healthier, more respectful, and confident way to deal with these issues that will actually reduce the overall conflict over time. The best thing is, you can reduce all this conflict without actually causing a lot of chaos. It’s not going to be as bad as you think it’s going to be, but you’re just going to have to trust me on this one.
