Summary

(Content Warning) This week we go deep in an incredible conversation with author and business coach John Romaniello. John's clear, level-headed openness--about his father, psychedelics, recovering from abuse, forced vs. developed empathy, the meaning of becoming a man--I'll just say there's a lot to unpack here!

0:00.0	Welcome to the Man Talk Show, Training for Man Answers for Women.
0:14.2	I'm Connor Beaton.
0:15.8	And joining me today is John Romagnello.
0:19.5	John is a writing mentor and business coach based in New York City.
0:24.6	He helps entrepreneurs build and scale businesses through writing and branding.
0:28.8	His work includes business articles, development essays, and all manner of half-clever thoughts
0:34.9	to improve your day. He also has a disclaimer on his website that says,
0:40.3	definitely do not read my shit if you hate being successful or fun. So as you can tell,
0:45.1	read out the gates, a little clever, a little cheeky. So John has written a ton of stuff
0:52.1	on a really broad variety of subjects. He's talked about ayahuasca. He's talked about
1:00.9	really his main piece is storytelling and how we can use storytelling to elevate our brands,
1:08.9	our businesses, our messages, and get them out into the world.
1:12.4	But that's not necessarily what we are talking about on today's show.
1:16.3	So John and I sort of dive deep into his personal story.
1:21.0	And he shares about the abuse that he experienced growing up and how that abuse impacted his life, how he healed from
1:28.7	that abuse, how he dealt with it. We talk about his relationship to his father, and we go really
1:37.6	into how his personal journey has not only led to his purpose in life, but how he tells his stories
1:47.0	about the different challenges, the different obstacles that he's gone through. So this is a
1:52.4	really direct and also very sort of vulnerable and authentic podcast where John is, you know,
2:03.9	courageous enough to share his story in a way that i don't think he's done on very many other platforms and uh this is a guy that gets interviewed a lot
2:10.2	and so i hope that you enjoy it is really i really enjoyed this conversation with john and
2:16.5	i think i'm going to have them back on the show in the near future to maybe talk about and expand on some of the things that we that we touch on in this episode so I hope that you enjoy I hope that you send this episode to someone that you know will benefit from it and I hope that you head on over to whatever platform you're
