Why You SHOULD Take Things Personally (If You Actually Want to Grow) l EP. 52 l
We’ve all been told not to take things personally… but what if that’s the exact thing holding you back from becoming the man you’re meant to be?
In this episode, I break down one of the most misunderstood emotional habits for high-performing men: taking things personally. As a recovering Nice Guy, I used to spiral with self-doubt anytime I felt criticized. But I’ve since learned that every trigger is a mirror—and owning that mirror is the gateway to becoming more grounded, resilient, and powerful.
You’ll learn:
- Why your reactions are always your responsibility (even when they feel justified)
- How to use feedback, criticism, and conflict as tools for personal growth
- What it really means to “own your shit” in your marriage, your business, and your leadership
- How to stop giving your power away by getting triggered by the same people
- How to stay grounded when others project their chaos onto you
This is for the man who wants to lead with strength, not reactivity. For the father who wants to raise emotionally intelligent kids. For the husband who wants to hold space, not get defensive. And for the leader who’s ready to evolve into the most grounded version of himself.
💭 Action Step:
Think of the last 3 things that triggered you. Write down what they exposed. Now ask: “What part of me needs to take ownership of this?”
