43. Richard Ayling - What Does Healthy Masculinity Really Look Like? And Can Men's Circles Help You Transform? 

Welcome to another episode of the Unhooked podcast, the place to learn how to break free from compulsive behaviors and bad habits, so that you can create the life you want.

My guest today is Richard Ayling.

Richard is a coach, consultant and retreat facilitator working in the personal development and corporate wellness space, helping professionals and entrepreneurs create healthier relationships and mental wellbeing through self-leadership and emotional strength training.

He combines over 30,000 hours as a communication skills coach with extensive knowledge of mindset and embodiment work, to design & facilitate corporate wellness programs and retreats internationally.

His mission in men's work is to redefine healthy masculinity; to help men bring more depth and value to their world, to support each other more, lead with emotional intelligence and communicate in healthier ways.
Rich successfully overcame an autoimmune disease, is a recovering 'nice guy', and was one of the first instructors trained by Wim Hof.

I LOVED this conversation with Rich, as we dive into subjects that don’t get a lot of airtime.
 
We dive into a wide array of compelling subjects, including the nuances of modern masculinity and the challenges men face when seeking support in today's world. The conversation also explores the "nice guy" syndrome and delves into the qualities that men can nurture within themselves to foster a more balanced and healthier masculine presence.
 
The episode offers listeners insights into
 
* the positive impact and tangible benefits of men's circles.
* toxic masculinity and balancing the masculine and feminine
* the impact of pornography of mental health and intimacy
* personal growth journeys and cultivating self worth
