What's In The Way Of Your Self-Respect
(Confronting your shadow, and what's really in the way of your self-respect.)
You may already have a sense of the man you want to be. The problem usually isn’t that you need more discipline, more information, or another strategy. It’s that there’s a part of you—often one you’ve spent years avoiding, controlling, or outrunning—that still has a hand on the wheel.
Wednesday, OCTOBER 28 • 6:00–7:00pm ET  • Live on Zoom
Reserve Your SpotYou may already have a sense of the man you want to be.
But knowing who you want to become and actually living as that man are two very different things.
The gap usually isn’t a lack of information. And it isn’t always a lack of discipline. More often, there are parts of you that you’ve learned to avoid, suppress, control, or outrun—and whether you realize it or not, those parts still have a hand on the wheel.
This is the territory of the shadow.
The fears you don’t want to admit. The anger you’ve pushed down. The needs you judge yourself for having. The places where you question your own worth. The patterns you know are costing you something, but keep repeating anyway.
Because self-respect isn’t simply how you feel about yourself.
It’s revealed in what you tolerate. What you pursue. What you avoid. The promises you keep to yourself. The boundaries you hold. The relationships you choose. And what you do when nobody else is there to hold you accountable.
On this live call, we’re going to take an honest look at where you are now, the patterns that may be keeping you there, and what needs to be confronted if you want to build something different moving forward.
Not so you can endlessly analyze yourself.
So you can see clearly what’s been running you—and begin choosing what runs your life from here.

To Your Success,
Connor
