To be seen, acknowledged, and respected. Now this title is a combination of the; 30 day leaderboard, Grounded Man Score (from your check ins) and showing up actively in our live sessions. So for January, With an average Grounded Man score of 57.5, Im excited to name @Daniel Edge as January's Grounded Man of the Month. Only just coming in ahead of @Alec Liebhardt . Congratulations brother, the integration and embodiment of the work here you take into the real world is impressive and to be admired. It truly is a privilege to see the way you take these learnings and practices and implement them asap, despite some of the doubt or nice guy parts wanting to slow down. I would love if all the men here can share below in a comment just point of admiration or acknowledge you've seen in Daniel's growth in this container.

Today I felt myself getting more and more anxious as the day went on. I was going through the motions of getting through the day while taking care of my 2 youngest children. After I laid them down for their naps I felt this rush of worry hit me and I sat down and just cried. I closed my eyes did some breath work and envisioned myself adult self standing behind my young boy self and asked what are you trying to protect me from. After I talked with this part of me I felt a sense of relief and was able to allow my adult self to handle the situation and let my younger self not feel like it needed to protect me in this moment.

Just a reflection on my last week, I've been struggling with reactivity and I got in from Uni tonight and realised a part was basically screaming at me. After some of the Stomatic Boundary work it really helped, I think I'm recognising a part of this process is not just take in information and then boom you'll be grounded its a lot of trail and error and the lessons are all tools to help guide the process.

Looking back at where I was to where I’ve come to this point while there’s still a feeling of not being perfect I definitely feel a lot further along than when I started this journey. Oh so long ago. I’ve been down on myself a little bit for not just having it all figured out, but as I sit and reflect and look in the mirror, I’m seeing that I have definitely come more into myself and while I’ve still been looking for a little bit of validation from others, I am starting to feel that confidence build to let myself just be where I am

Gents, we only have a few days left of 2025.

If thats you comment on this so I know youre 100% ready, if thats not you, or you're a little lost, either comment or send me a message so I can make sure you are crystal clear on everything!
