RMP 208 - Own It When You Can’t Hold It with Shems Heartwell

Mar 24, 2022

Facing off with HEAVY issues like shame, overwhelm, and anxiety is a normal part of life - BUT getting stuck there is not. By sharing, expressing, and taking ownership, we can move through those tough energies and GROW. Shems Heartwell is a qi gong practitioner, acupuncturist, land steward, husband, and men’s work leader who is deeply committed to serving humanity. We hit home on the common areas that men struggle mightily with - including the lone wolf mentality, habitual excuse making, and emotional suppression via substance abuse. Listen in for Shem’s roadmap to embodying masculine presence and authentic confidence!!



Highlights:

  • How men can hold greater responsibility and serve more than themselves.
  • Why lone wolf mode will only get you so far.
  • “When we share our pain and put it in the light, its power over us wanes.” - Shems Heartwell
  • Why true teachers lead students to connect with their OWN inner knowledge.
  • How Shems emotionally and spiritually confronted his CV-19 infection.
  • Why is alcoholism and technology addiction on the rise?
  • Do people struggle when they get more money than they’ve ever had before?
  • Can we completely transcend our childhood programming?
  • “My will alone isn’t gonna make everything happen” - Shems Heartwell
  • Why ANGER is natural and must be worked through, not suppressed.
