Looking for a high value man or woman will have you feeling more detached from yourself and reality than figuring out your life’s purpose. Generally speaking there are natural occurring differences between men and women that do not have to be viewed as adversarial or problematic. In today’s social media influenced dating scene, there are so many toxic ideals floating around that dating and finding relationships are more difficult than they ever were before. Traditional male roles are being attacked for being toxically unacceptable by today’s internet standards and both men and women are feeling pressure to live up to standards that a narrow percentage of people will actually fit into. Stephan Speaks is joining Tom to address a very hard conversation. Stephan Speaks has garnered hundreds of millions of views from his own YouTube presence as a relationship expert focused on helping men and women create healthier happier relationships aligned with the essence of their true self. He’s not shy about calling out behaviors and flawed thinking from men and women that make finding authentic connection difficult. Declining testosterone levels in young men, porn, and an unhealed broken subset of men (and women) with large online platforms are just a few of the issues of a much bigger problem that Stephan is speaking to in this episode. Let’s talk about why you’re being shamed for not wanting the internet standard and how the Andrew Tate phenomenon and others like that for men and women are destroying your potential for love, family and real connection.
