Men need more empathy, and Joel Bein says the discomfort you feel when you hear that is the proof. This is Joel's Upgraded Man Journal entry, the handoff every guest makes at the end of the show.
Joel Bein is the founder of Human Liberation and host of The Joel Bein Show. He works with entrepreneurs to clear the subconscious beliefs behind self-doubt and overworking. Every guest reads what the last guest left in the journal, answers it, then leaves one line for whoever sits down next.
The entry waiting for Joel came from relationship coach Paul Roseberry. What is a no that, if you started saying it, would make your life better?
Joel's answer is simple and hard to live. Say no to the pretty good things so you have room for the true heck yes. He tells the story of a date he went on knowing going in it was only pretty good.
Then he leaves his own line for the next guest. Men need more empathy. He asks every man listening to notice what comes up when he hears it.
This one is for the man whose calendar is full of good things and who is still running on empty.
In this episode:
- Paul Roseberry's journal question, and the no that would change your life
- Why saying no to pretty good things makes room for what you really want
- Every yes is a no to everything else
- The date Joel knew was only pretty good before he ever went
- Joel's entry for the next guest. Men need more empathy.
