Lots of men struggle to express their emotions, which can lead to them feeling isolated and frustrated.
The solution starts with open and honest conversations with friends and loved ones. Men need to practice setting boundaries and expressing their emotions without fear of judgment – and to hold safe spaces for others to express themselves.
In this episode, Lorin sits down with yoga, breathwork and sound healer Leo Oppenheim, who shares his journey towards awakened masculinity, and how men need to realise their role as one of listener, rather than problem-solver.

Many of us find ourselves in jobs we don't love, feeling disconnected from our true purpose. Craig Siegel left a lucrative Wall Street job during the pandemic to pursue his passion for personal development, and now helps people create space to connect with themselves and find their true calling.
To find our true calling – our soul’s purpose – we need to disconnect from distractions, reflect on what truly fulfils us, and dare to envision a different future. We have to be intentional with our life choices, work hard when necessary, but be open to new possibilities, insights, and flow.

Relationships often hit that moment when a woman feels something is missing… but she can't articulate it. This can be confusing to both partners. A man may think he needs to please her by doing more. But the real problem goes far deeper.
In this episode, Lorin explains that the solution lies in both partners understanding what "more" means. If this isn’t communicated and what she wants is unarticulated and never realised, the relationship can become dysfunctional. This can draw men towards neediness which pushes their partners away.
This episode offers the opportunity to understand our own desires and paths, and is crucial listening for both men and women.

Plenty of couples go through a period where there’s little to no sex involved. This can be really upsetting as a healthy sex life is a crucial part a flourishing relationship.
Both parties have a role to play here. Men need to face their insecurities and learn how to hold space for the emotional experiences that arise during sex. And women need to feel safe, both emotionally and physically.
In this episode, Lorin explores how men can overcome performance anxiety and how women can fully engage in the sexual experience.
Healthy relationships need sex. Without it, partners can grow further apart, harbour resentment, and less willing to be intimate. But it isn’t about sex alone – it’s about emotional connection, trust, and mutual respect.

Women have a unique ability to sense and feel subtle changes and shifts. But this ability can trigger defensiveness and resistance in their male partners. This resistance can be harm the growth and evolution of the relationship, causing stagnation and even leading to dysfunctional dynamics.
As Lorin explores in this episode, the key lies in acknowledging and validating the woman's intuition and using it as a tool for growth and deeper connection. For men, this means recognising when they’re triggered, being honest about it, and thanking their partner for their insights. For women, it means not taking the resistance personally and reframing it as a reflection of the other’s inability to hold deep truths, rather than a judgment of their intuitive power.
If the woman feels invalidated and the man stays stuck in his defensiveness, this will harm a relationship in the long term. It can lead to resentment, and create a stalemate where neither party evolves or grows.
But understanding the power of a woman's intuition and how to work with it it can be a game-changer. We can start by sharing our feelings, expressing when we feel triggered, and practicing active listening to validate and honour each-other's experiences.

Showing up consistently in a relationship is hard. We want to build trust, but we often get stuck in our heads and forget the little things that matter. These small moments of forgetfulness can lead to a lack of trust and disconnect in our relationships.
This episode offers a simple and powerful way to build trust by embodying consistency. It's about being present, intentional, and conscious throughout the day – about following through with our words and promises, and expressing our love consistently.
Small moments of forgetfulness can add up over time, causing distrust and disconnect. While these moments might not lead to a total relationship meltdown, they keep us from reaching the highest level of intimacy and trust with our partners.
Today’s episode is an invitation to make a conscious effort to follow through with our words and promises. Remember, it's about the small things. A few minutes or even seconds per day of honouring our partners goes a long way.

Many men seem to take their partners for granted over time, even when they deeply love them. They stop putting in the effort and expressing their love as they once did. This behaviour is often rooted in a sense of unworthiness, a deeply ingrained belief that sabotages their relationships.
Fixing this behaviour takes courage, awareness, and regular practice to keep our hearts open, even when it feels painful.
Without taking ownership and action, men risk falling into a cycle of unworthiness that sabotages our relationships. We may become numb, disconnected, and stuck in our heads. Our hearts may close, and we may stop putting effort into our relationships, causing them to wither.
In this episode, Lorin lays out some daily habits and practices that will keep you connected with your heart and help you break free from the cycle of unworthiness.

The purpose of spiritual awakening is to realise the truth of how things are, not how we want them to be. This can be challenging and even painful, but it's an essential part of the spiritual journey.
In this episode, Lorin explains why we need to be present and embrace what’s happening right now, rather than thinking “this shouldn’t be”. This doesn't mean giving up our passions or desires, but operating in harmony with the spirit.

We all carry emotional wounds, and one of the most damaging is the father wound. This wound often manifests in our relationships, leading to patterns of self-sabotage, distrust, and emotional upheaval. But there is a way out.
In this episode, Lorin offers practical steps to heal and overcome the father wound, by recognising dysfunctional patterns, connecting with the deeper pain that drives them, and taking ownership.
When our father wound becomes triggered, it can lead to a vicious cycle of unfulfilling relationships and self-sabotaging behaviour. We can end up pushing away the very people we want to hold closest, which then reaffirms our deepest fears and insecurities.
But this episode will help you find time and space to set yourself on the path towards healing.

We're all guilty of using spirituality to sidestep or avoid dealing with unresolved emotions from time to time. It’s called spiritual bypassing, and it’s quite common, especially in relationships. It's yet another way our shadow self prevents us from evolving and becoming our highest self.
The key is to lean into it – to face our deeper core wounds head-on and focus fully on them instead of trying to avoid or bypass them. This means acknowledging our behaviours and patterns.
If you’ve found yourself feeling stuck, experiencing inner conflict, resistance or emptiness, that pain might be the result of avoiding your deeper wounds. But by asking a simple question, we can reconnect with our deeper truth and avoid spiritual bypassing.

Many of us struggle to balance our masculine and feminine energies. This imbalance can manifest as a fear of abandonment and lack of self-belief, especially in women who are stuck in their immature feminine energy. They constantly seek validation and lack personal boundaries, which creates a cycle of attracting immature masculine energy.
In this episode, TV host and emotional rights advocate Megan Pormer illustrates how women need to first understand and recognise their immature feminine energy, then work on developing mature masculine qualities within themselves. These are qualities like clear communication and boundary setting.
Societal expectations and pressures put on women make the journey of self-discovery so much harder. And women stuck in immature feminine energy – or who get wrapped up in immature masculine energy – often experience unhealthy relationships and a lack of self-understanding.
So in this episode, Megan and Lorin invite you to surround yourself with a supportive community, so you can move from fear to empowerment, and from seeking validation to believing in yourself.

Infidelity is a painful experience that can shatter trust and cause profound emotional distress. It's a problem that leaves us feeling gutted, wronged and as if the ground has been taken from beneath our feet. It can lead to self-doubt and a severe impact on our trust in ourselves and in our relationship decisions.
People cheat not because they are inherently bad, but because they are dealing with their own trauma and pain. They are out of alignment with their own truth. Healing begins with forgiveness – if we can find it in our hearts – and understanding that the act of cheating is a reflection of the person who cheated, not a reflection of us.
In this episode, Lorin explains why men and women cheat, and offers advice for victims of infidelity as well as those with patterns of cheating.

Being authentically vulnerable and expressing emotions for men involves finding a balance between sharing our deepest feelings and staying connected to our masculine energy.
It’s not about venting or projecting emotional overwhelm onto others, but rather speaking our truth with clarity, courage, and responsibility. By embodying Warrior Vulnerability, we can create deeper connection and intimacy while staying rooted in our masculine power.
Men who confuse vulnerability with complaining or venting can end up feeling more disconnected from their masculine energy and true nature. This can lead to distrust and disconnect with the feminine.
But by embracing Warrior Vulnerability, men can express their heart's deepest truth in a clear and responsible manner, enriching the dance of intimacy.

Hormonal imbalances in both women and men can lead to low libido, mood swings, and other symptoms that strain relationships. To address these challenges, we need to prioritise hormonal balance and support each other.
In this episode, Lorin speaks with Prof Annice Mukherjee, a leading women's health and hormone expert. With a medical career spanning over 30 years, she has supported thousands of women in managing menopause and hormone-related challenges to improve their quality of life and health.
Prof Annice urges both men and women to learn about the hormonal changes that occur and how they can affect our bodies and emotions. And she encourages creating safe spaces for open and honest conversations about how these challenges impact relationships.
When hormonal issues are ignored by doctors, this leaves women disempowered. And when they speak to men, their inclination to want to “solve” problems can be unhelpful. But by having open and compassionate conversations about the potential impact of hormonal changes, both parties can navigate these challenges and strengthen their relationship.
About Prof AnniceProf Annice Mukherjee is a leading women's health and hormone expert in the UK with a medical career spending over 30 years. She has supported thousands of women going through menopause and hormone related challenges to help them manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life and health.

Men often feel like women are trying to change them, which of course causes conflict in their relationship. Men want to be accepted “for who they are”, but this doesn’t mean accepting mens’ shadow. Instead, it means loving and accepting them while desiring growth and change if their patterns stem from wounding.
Men need to set healthy boundaries. If someone is trying to change a man in a way that goes against his truth, he must express his values and stand in his integrity. Boundaries allow us all to maintain conscious relationships and honour our own growth.
When we misinterpret our partners’ need for a deeper and authentic connection, we put strain on the relationship. Unresolved conflicts and unaddressed wounds can lead to a lack of trust, intimacy, and satisfaction. So we need to embrace the opportunity for growth and evolve together.
In this episode, Lorin explains how, by examining our own patterns and wounds, we can reflect on whether we are identifying ourselves with our shadows or operating from our highest truth. This cultivates self-awareness and creates healthier dynamics in our relationships.

What do women mean when they say “maybe”? For men, this can feel like a lack of clarity, but it goes much, much deeper. In this episode, Lorin uncovers ways to create more polarity by embracing the differences in communication styles between the masculine and the feminine.
The feminine’s use of "maybe" and similar expressions is a natural part of their style of communication. This style actually creates attraction and polarity between the masculine and the feminine. This invites the masculine to embody his innate energy by offering direction, leadership, and decisiveness when a woman expresses "maybe".
When we misunderstand and judge one another's communication style, we risk losing the depth of connection and polarity essential for a thriving relationship. But we have the opportunity to create a stronger bond and foster deeper intimacy by recognising and authentically responding to each-other’s style.

Spending time with family over the holiday period can be challenging, especially when dealing with difficult family members. These dynamics can quickly bring us back into a state of unconsciousness and disconnect us from ourselves. It's important to find a way to protect our energy and maintain healthy relationships with our family members.
The key is to release the expectation that your family will fully understand and see us for who we are. Accepting that they may never fully comprehend our journey allows us to free ourselves from seeking their validation and protects our energy.
In this episode, Lorin will help you recognise the role you play in your family dynamic, embrace the truth about your family members, and establish healthy boundaries.
If we keep trying to please or be fully understood by certain members of our family, we risk falling back into old patterns and draining our energy. We might feel disconnected from ourselves, experience judgment and criticism, and struggle to maintain healthy relationships. Ignoring these issues can hinder our personal growth and overall well-being.
Remember, it's OK if your family members don't fully understand you. Focus on nurturing relationships that support your growth and surround yourself with individuals who value and respect you.
