How important is it for you to be in control?

Do you ever feel like your life is out of alignment with your values?

And what does it take to forgive someone who has hurt you deeply?

Today my wife, Alyson Lanier gets curious about the emotionally constipated guy I used to be back in my early 20’s. We talk about why I went to therapy, why I hated the idea of personal growth, and how my life looked amazing from the outside but was a fragmented mess on the inside.

In this interview:

Does Alyson have a fart fetish?

Being a control freak

Trying to outrun my emotional world

Being afraid of women

Navigating an emotional minefield

Plus:

Why I went to therapy

Dealing with loss

Considering suicide

The difference between relief and peace of mind

“The peace I was deeply wanting was on the other side of that thing I was avoiding.”

And:

Being out of alignment with inner values

“They’re going to think I’m weird.”

Playing it safe professionally

“Is this it? What now? Why can’t I just be happy here?”
