Hey fam, what has you feeling inspired recently? Any creative projects, relationships, events, or experiences that have your heart full. Drop it in the comments below I wanna hear what has y'all gassed up recently? I'll start.

Hey Men of The Expanse! I’m stepping into a conversation this week that feels incredibly relevant right now. On April 8th, I’ll be facilitating a live workshop inside the Entheo Breath Skool community, led by our fellow expanse member @Ankhara Akeru . Some of you already know him. He’s been showing up fully in The Expanse space, and he’s been doing powerful work building his own community. He invited me in to speak on something that sits at the core of everything we do here: Emotions. More specifically:Why Emotional Navigation matters… and why it’s becoming essential in the world we’re living in today. Most men were never taught how to work with emotion. So what happens? We override.We suppress.We misinterpret.We react. Not because something is wrong with us…Because we were never given language or structure. This session is going to open that up. We’ll explore: • What emotions actually are (from a functional lens) • Why they are signals, not problems • How misreading them creates unnecessary friction in life and relationships • What it looks like to navigate emotion instead of trying to control it This is fare from theory.This is practical.This is usable. 🗓 April 8th⏰ 10AM Central / 11AM Eastern If you feel called to expand your understanding here, come through. Drop a comment or DM me and I’ll send you the link to join the Entheo Breath space. It is free! Let’s keep Expanding.

Everyone take a moment to Welcome @Jacob Wendt to the Expanse! Glad to have you. Take a look around, introduce yourself and jump in on some of the posts and Man OS Lite!

Last week I celebrated my 50th. Birthdays have never been a huge event for me. Another day. Nice dinner, maybe a few presents from my family. Then it's over, no worries. I think there was some external factors with work, my physical state (lack of sleep), but the day was off and I didn't feel right. The morning started with our local Expanse face to face meetup with @Jared Johnson and @Chance Lundgren . Good discussions as always. Afterwards I hung back with Jared. We talked a bit. I decided I needed a massage to try to unwind and he called around and got one booked for me. That was amazing and thanks to Jared for making that happen. I went to lunch with my 2 brothers. Came home and pretty much just chilled with my family . I wasn't feeling great so we ended up not going out, just watching some movies with my wife and kids. My wife had asked that morning what I wanted to do for my bday and I just said "for noone to demand or need things from me" it was said with a little sarcasm, but was the honest truth. That was Friday. The weekend was pretty calm, just hanging out with the family. My mother-in-law came for a nice Easter dinner. Not even sure what I'm sharing here other than I wanted to acknowledge @Jared Johnson for pushing me to just go do what felt right in the moment. I don't really understand why the day felt so heavy (and still not sure). I think there's some frustration and anger around where I expected and thought life would look a lot different at 50 than it does. I am often torn between doing what I want vs what's expected. I know if I get really poor sleep it can send my emotions haywire, but is that just because I'm really tired? Or is it because if I'm not tired I can more effectively suppress those emotions? And yes, I'm open to anything anyone wants to throw at me 😁.

Hey fellas. I want to bring something to the attention of The Expanse and the Men IN it. Yesterday I was navigating a space of un-safety where my camping/sleeping gear was taken from my campsite. This disruption to my wholeness activated a lot of anger within me, and because I didn't sufficiently sit with it and metabolize it, it got misdirected toward my fellow Man @Steven Cruz in my interaction with him. You can see our exchange here. My misdirected anger and the borderline violence of my languaging did NOT sit well with me. Especially after receiving another Man's perspective and feedback on it. I have directly contacted Steven and apologized for how I engaged with him and he was gracious enough to resolve and repair the affect of my comments. I want to bring this attention to the group for multiple reasons- here are a few. 1. I am human just like everyone else. I'm not an AI Chatbot. 2. While I am a co-founder and co-creator of this container, I still fumble, falter and forget ALL THE TIME. I am ALWAYS LEARNING. 3. I have found over and over again that when I OWN MY SPACE, ENERGY AND EXPRESSION with myself and ESPECIALLY with others- I ALWAYS feel lighter. 4. While I did not do anything WRONG or shameful, my expression and its impact was not how I intended it. This will NOT be the last time this happens in here or ANYWHERE. 5. If you see or hear me say something that doesn't land, doesn't resonate or inspires excessive dis-ease in you- PLEASE LET ME KNOW. Thanks you for patience and grace as I learn. After all I'm incredibly grateful for how things transpired because it led to an amazing exchange with @Tah Whitty. The exchange is recorded and linked below. I HIGHLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO LISTEN. Thank you all for being here on this ride with us. It's a pleasure and an honor to co-create this container and this Life with y'all.
