Dr. Michael Diamond peels back the layers of what truly happens during the King Immersion experience—a transformational men’s retreat designed to awaken sovereignty, ignite emotional clarity, and reclaim masculine purpose. As he prepares to guide 16 men through a weekend of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual stretching, Michael offers a powerful clarion call to men everywhere: stop living life on autopilot and start doing the deep inner work. With wisdom drawn from over 25 immersions, Michael explores the transformative role of emotion—“energy in motion”—as a gateway to lasting change, and exposes why surface-level fixes never lead to real healing. This episode isn't just an overview—it's an invitation. For the man stuck in survival, in emotional neutrality, or disconnected from purpose, this is the work that leads to rebirth.

Michael and Nanilea Diamond unpack the layered terrain of jealousy, trust, and primal energy within relationships. Drawing on their own marriage and work with men’s brotherhoods, they deconstruct the myth that jealousy is always toxic and explore how a man’s primal instincts—when integrated and not shamed—can reignite intimacy, safety, and sexual polarity. They challenge societal narratives that domesticate masculine energy and instead invite men to reconnect with their inner "wild man"—not as a brute, but as a protector, as presence, as primal wisdom. If you've ever struggled with how to navigate jealousy, how to bring more truth and vitality to your relationship, or how to embrace the full spectrum of your masculine energy—this episode is for you.
