Summary

A lot of people think that when you control your impulses or energy, you’re suppressing yourself. But that’s not true. Suppression means pushing something down by force. Containment means keeping it within healthy limits. In this episode, I talk about the difference between containment and suppression—and why most men get it wrong. I break down why true power comes from containment, not suppression, and how mastering this can change the way you carry your energy as a man. Show Notes [03:25]#1 When you suppress your energy, you are making a show of strength to hide what is actually weakness. [10:39]#2 Containment is power under control. [19:51]#3 People can feel the energy of containment.
