Talking points: mindset, attraction, relationships

I was surprised at the sheer volume of basic advice there is out there on being a more attractive man. This week, we're going to go a little beyond "hit the gym" and "smoke less". How do you build your attractiveness from the inside out AND stay authentically you? Listen in.

(00:09:50) - Develop emotional sovereignty

(00:12:11) - Develop direction and discipline

(00:14:14) - Have some non-negotiables. Please.

(00:17:39) - Be unapologetically you. Note: this requires serious work on figuring out who you actually are

(00:35:09) - Do men need extreme hardship in order to have self-respect?
