Published 5Â days, 10Â hours ago
Description
In this episode, a professional performer and armored combat athlete who struggles with the contrast between his stage persona and his intense social anxiety. Despite his charisma and dedication to the values of modern knighthood, Brian finds himself paralyzed by the fear of rejection and the pressures of modern dating. Together, they explore the roots of his avoidant attachment, the impact of his upbringing, and the psychological barriers that keep him from forming genuine connections. We look at actionable strategies for rewiring the nervous system, overcoming the 'freeze' response, and moving away from performative behavior toward authentic, vulnerable, and meaningful relationships.
