From losing everything in 2008 to rebuilding himself into a powerhouse leader, Garrett shares raw lessons on masculinity, success, and relationships. He exposes the lies men tell themselves, why their wives lose attraction, and how true leadership—both at home and in business—requires radical honesty and relentless execution.

So if I don't come back and the way I get stuck and Minga is stuck is we get stuck in a guilt and shame loop.
We get stuck in this place of so much self abuse on ourselves of I'm a piece of shit.
If I'm in the Christian world, I'm a sinner. I'm worthless. I'm a piece of shit. Guilt, shame. Down to the pit we go.
Then we cover the pit with lies and we pretend like it's not happening. We stuff it down. We put on the happy clappy smile.
We go about based thinking something's gonna change.
Yeah.
Nothing changes.
Justin's programs work, how do you know?
Justin works, how do you know?
Students in his programs get fucking results.
Do all of them know?
Not because the program doesn't work,
because you don't work.
That's right.
The same reason why my wife and I have been together
for 23 years, we've almost been divorced 10 times.
People are like, how you guys do it?
I was like, we have to keep dying.
Let the past go, rebuild something new. You need to watch this if you do not know my guest you need to know my guest You're not achieving what you want to achieve in life on all levels
This is the man you need to follow and be a part of his world Garrett Jay white is in the house, bro
Welcome all of you. I don't know who you are, but welcome for a treat
I promise you whatever you think this show has been in the past
It'll probably be very different than what you think it's gonna be
There's no hell that tends to be how these shows go. And that's the best part.
Yeah.
We just let it fly.
We just let it fly.
Everyone here is an entrepreneur, an aspiring entrepreneur.
Yeah.
Big success, little success, just getting started.
You have done something very special
in the space of entrepreneurship,
and I think it needs to be noted,
and I wanna just start with
what you've been able to create over your, what are we doing, 13 years now?
13 years. Wake up warrior?
Yep.
You've kind of led the pack in what I would say
for all of us who are mentors, coaches, leaders
in this space, but it's because you had to find a way
to lead yourself first, right?
Yep.
So if you can't find a way to lead yourself,
how the hell are you gonna achieve?
And you're the embodiment of being able to lead yourself first to be able to go great
more.
Well, if you look at the first off, the decision to be an entrepreneur is insanity.
No, I agree.
Right.
And there's a lot, particularly now, that's like really pushed.
It went back when we started, it wasn't, I mean, it was pushed, but not like it's pushed
right now.
Now it's like a stamp of honor to be an entrepreneur.
And there's a lot of people want to be entrepreneurs and now with online ability and all the different
avenues to be able to make money without having to have overhead and offices and assistance
and payroll, you can contract and VA this and VA that.
And you can have people working for you in Tibet and now they're working for you in India.
And it's like $2 an hour.
It's like all these things are different. Like when we, when I started 23 years ago, I read Rich Dad Poor Dad.
That of course took me from being a PE teacher to I think I can be rich.
Like I never even had the thought. I wanted to be rich.
You are by far the highest paid PE teacher of all time.
I am the highest paid PE teacher in the world right now.
There's no doubt.
Nope. There's not one person that's come out of pedagogy.
That's the official name they give it.
They like to call it, it's like calling your garbage man a sanitation engineer.
Like, nah, he's a garbage man.
And I'm a PE teacher, Jack Black.
And School Rock says that if you can't do, you teach.
And if you can't teach, you teach PE.
There you go.
So there I was as a PE teacher, read Rishad Bordad, like millions and millions of people.
Yeah.
So grateful to Robert Kiyosaki, marketed the shit out of that.
And just sold that book, no doubt.
And so that was like the beginning stage, and I thought, wow, I could be rich.
And that led me into mortgages, and that led me into real estate,
and then into real estate mortgages and life insurance.
These became the trifecta of what we did from 2000 to 2008.
Then, A, happens. We are young. I'm the oldest dude on my team. I'm like 32. All
my guys are in their 20s. We weren't entrepreneurs. No. We were wholesale hitmen. Yeah. That's
it. We were wholesale hitmen in the life insurance contract space, the real estate contract space,
and the mortgage contract space. We just passed deals. We found people, passed deals to big
companies, listened to the big companies who at the time were telling us to do all kinds of illegal shit. Sick.
We had an apartment in our mortgage office that was the fixer part of the
the shop. Our banks would send things back to us from underwriting, our
underwriters, but send back for we were we were just a broker who worked with correspondent banks, who worked with the primary banks, and the
money just flowed down. We didn't know shit about shit about shit. We had all
the older dudes who were like in their 40s and 50s, and then the underwriters
telling us what to do. We didn't give a shit. We're like, okay, it's your money.
We don't care. So like they would send back 10 it would send back 10 or 3 send back contracts hey we
need it to say this and we're like what in our minds we're like yeah but this is what the numbers
are and they're like we need it to say this this happens like this happens over and over
and for like two weeks with us my teams are looking at what the fuck are these guys talking
about and then one of guys my team's like bro this, this is like Nina loans, no income, no asset,
sissy loans, like option arms, interest only,
rape equity, buy another property,
everybody getting homes, shouldn't get homes.
And we're like, okay.
Sure.
So we started forging documents.
We didn't call forging, because we didn't know. The banks are like, do this, and we're forging documents. We didn't call the forging, because we didn't know.
The banks are like, do this, and we're like, okay.
And then we'd send it back and we'd get approved.
Person would get the home, bank could get the loan,
we'd get paid, homeowners happy, everybody's happy.
We don't know anything, we're like, fine.
Where our challenge came is when people started
raising money.
So then dudes around us started raising capital,
because you could rape equity from property so quickly.
Oh yeah. Everybody was a fun guy now and now people are starting
to put money together and they're giving out returns on investment like two, three percent
a month. Cool. A month. But again, we're stupid. We read Rich Dad Port out and I was a PE teacher.
Most of us guys worked at like Denny's and now we're just fucking hired hitmen. We're
like, okay, so all these dudes we knew, Garret Gunderson and I who ran Freedom Fast Track,
we're killing sacred cows, we're strategic partners.
No kidding.
Garret and I ran hot together.
So there was investors paired on my company
and Ingenuity would name his company
and we both would collab on stuff,
but Garret and I both had this intuitive kind of knowing
of shit's kind of weird.
Yeah.
So he wouldn't raise money and I was like not raising money, but everyone around us was raising money.
Including big name dudes who were 15, 20 years older than us who were like our mentors, were raising capital.
And they were just rolling the money, rolling the money.
But again, I was, I didn't know math.
I had a calculator when I started mortgages.
It was fucking backwards.
You know what I'm talking about, Justin?
You know that dumb calculator?
I do, man.
I'm like trying to fucking punch the numbers in backwards. I can't even do forwards math.
Timberliss and you young entrepreneurs, you have no fucking clue dude.
Dude, none.
None.
Like my career started with a stack of papers with names and phone numbers that had VA home
loans and I walked into the office and said call those people.
Yeah.
Okay. And then what am I supposed to tell them? That we can get get them a lower rate at the time rates were like nine and a half we were
refinancing down to like nine oh god people that rates are so high like bro
I remember telling a lady on the phone she said I'm gonna wait until rates get
down to 8% and I go ma'am it will be a cold day in hell before rates get to 8%
I saw all you guys whining about 4 and 5 and six percent you don't have a clue now
I sound like an old dude cuz they're old do saying that to us back then when rates were at 14%
So all of that game and mortgages and banking we blew up and we made a bunch of money and then we got smashed
Mmm, so do we all right? I mean at the end of the day you and I were in the same space you were doing loans
I was just doing retail smashed lost it all
Really lost it all.
Whole generation, and there's a whole generation of dudes from that day that still talk about
back when I was crushing it, I was like, dude, you realize that's almost 20 years ago, we
gotta stop talking about that.
If you're still being crushed from what happened almost 20 years ago, you were ever a player.
Let's talk about that.
I mean, we could take this so many ways.
The fact that people are holding on to 20 years ago losses
is why they're stuck making 150 grand a year still.
Yep.
Because they can't let go of that.
Can't let go of the past.
There's a quote, I'll butcher the quote for sure,
but it's like, it's about guilt.
And holding on to guilt or hatred is a tax you'll pay forever.
If you can't forgive yourself, if you can't forgive the person,
if you can't get over that thing, it'll be a tax you'll pay forever and Without, if you can't forgive yourself, if you can't forgive the person, if you can't get over that thing,
it'll be a tax you'll pay forever
and you won't be able to get along further.
There's a way better quote about it,
but essentially you'll never be able to really achieve
what you want to achieve financially,
within marriage, whatever the thing is,
if you are holding onto that guilt,
the hatred, the hurt, the whatever,
because it's a tax you'll forever pay.
You can't get in another relationship
ready for that relationship if you're holding on to the hurt the hatred the guilt the whatever
Oh, dude, that's why people think if you take the marriage you're like, okay
Well dudes will be like well, I just need to get a new woman
so a lot of guys in painful relationships to be like just like people look at the place they're out working or the place they're
Out in business or the industry they're in there's this delusion that somehow I don't have marketing skills sales skills and leadership skills, and I'm in real estate if I go do software
I'll be successful. No you won't if I go do I just need to change industries. I'm in the wrong industry
No, you have no fucking skills
So even no matter what you do you're still gonna suck because you don't have fundamental skills of marketing and persuasion sales and persuasion
Because you don't have fundamental skills of marketing and persuasion sales and persuasion
Leadership and moving people to do things
So it's like you can't change it marriage is no different Yeah
And so if I fuck up in my marriage and I don't have skills as a man to be able to lead my wife and I don't
Have in movability in me as a human my in movable in that lack of
Strength in me. I leave this woman go find a new vagina, it's gonna be okay for six months.
Then the same shit's gonna repeat. Just different woman, same problems, because the problem's in you.
Change industry, same problem as you. Change coaches. Oh, Justin's an asshole, his program doesn't work.
I'm gonna go get one from Eric Spalford, or I'm gonna go hang out with whoever.
And you just find out you're a loser the whole time.
And you get that newness feeling, like a new vagina or a new woman.
You're like, oh I got a new woman it's gonna be different.
It's not. You're still the same asshole dragging them through the game.
Yeah.
So if I don't come back and the way I get stuck and Minga is stuck
is we get stuck in a guilt and shame loop.
We get stuck in this place of so much self abuse on ourselves of
I'm a piece of shit. If I'm in the Christian world I'm a sinner. I'm worthless of I'm a piece of shit, if I'm in the Christian world, I'm a sinner,
I'm worthless, I'm a piece of shit, guilt, shame,
down to the pit we go.
Then we cover the pit with lies,
and we pretend like it's not happening,
we stuff it down, we put on the happy, clappy smile,
we go about, babe, thinking something's gonna change.
Yeah.
Nothing changes.
Justin's programs work, how do you know?
Justin works, how do you know? Students in his programs get fucking How do you know Justin Justin works?
How do you know students in his programs get fucking results do all of them?
No, not because the program doesn't work cuz you don't work. That's right. The same reason why merit my wife and I've been together
For 23 years. We've almost been divorced ten times. Yeah, people like how you guys do it
I was like we have to keep dying. Let the past go rebuild something new stop right now rewind that
Re-listen to that whatever you need to do that part right there.
You could end the episode if you have to.
That is gold.
That is written all over people's walls right now.
You need to let the past die, let go and figure out what's going forward.
Well, think about this.
If you look at you as a real estate investor now, and you go back 10 years,
just go back five years, prior to COVID.
Yeah.
How different are you in the way you see the world now than what you were seeing five years ago?
Crustically.
I mean it's not even in comparison.
That's a great example because the big life worldly you know thing of COVID right?
But in a general sense people don't give themselves enough runway to be able to be able to
have that perspective. None. They don't look back.
They don't.
So the trap many dance solos on first one, he actually wrote a book on this called Gap in a Gain.
Great book.
My wife loves that book. I finally got her to read, which I'm proud of her. She started reading in the last five years.
She wanted to read before that.
I Fidget Shades of Grey, she read that.
Of course she did. In all of the shades.
Yeah, and the problem was she read Fidget Shades of Grey and then I figured that I was gonna get a play on some of that fidget shades of gray and I'm sex life
with shit, oh like fucking books a lie
They needed a user manual to come along with that fortunately we created one a warrior called paid and laid protocol
So we all dudes figure out how to get fidget shades of gray back into the marriage come on paid and laid
They need a lane protocol come on
Yeah, so if you come back this game and letting go though
This is hard.
Because our identity is in the things that we have done.
And in Gap in the Game, Dan Sullivan talks about this idea that, and he had taught,
I was in strategic coach with him for 10 years.
I started with him back when I was in mortgages back in like 2003, 2002,
first time I attended his courses.
And he would teach that first concept and basics is a lot better now
It's refined, but of course over time everything gets more fun
But we not only do we live in guilt and shame art
We're constantly looking forward to the possibility of what could be and the more of more success you have the further out that
Horizon is because you start to see more and more of your capabilities And so the trap becomes I'm perpetually unhappy and dissatisfied
because no matter what I do, it will never be enough.
Compound that with Christian guilt, Christian shame.
You're a sinner, you're worthless.
God's angry at you, Old Testament style.
And contain that with a sexual relationship and it's not working out.
And it works as if you're better looking, good looking people.
And everybody thinks you're having a passionate love affair, but you're're not you're a fucking war with each other at home and on Instagram
You're like, hey, I love it and like three weeks later
Oh, we really want all your prayers at this hard time in our season
As me and so and so are no longer gonna be together said about 15 to the top influencers in the last three years full of shit
Mm-hmm. So there's a piece of like how do I deal with truth?
Well, let's even go back to your your loss, right? Everyone knows my story, you
crush real estate. Yeah, now it's 2008. How did you reframe it, get over it,
reframe your life and continue because you are literally at the pinnacle, in my
opinion, at the pinnacle of where I think all men want to be,
all successful entrepreneurs want to be.
It's not because you are the richest, by the way,
it's not the money side of it.
It's the revelations you've been able to have since 2008,
because I don't know the story before 2008.
But how did you take that moment in the moments there on
that you could look back and say,
okay, here's how I need change,
here's what I did wrong in that fact.
Here's what I needed to do better or whatever the case.
How do you do that?
So by the end of 2008, we lost everything.
So I made every big mistake an entrepreneur could make.
First, I didn't understand trends.
I didn't understand markets.
I didn't understand money.
I knew how to hustle it and how to keep it.
And I definitely know how to grow it. So we could make money, but that was the only skill we had. If I can't keep money, then it how to hustle it, I didn't know how to keep it, and I definitely know how to grow it.
So we could make money, but that was the only skill we had.
If I can't keep money, then it doesn't matter
how much money I make, I'm always gonna fucking be broke.
Because, Bratles law, no matter what I make,
I'm gonna continue to spend what I'm making,
I'm gonna continually be fucked.
I'll just be broke at a higher level.
Different cars, different houses, still same stress.
So we didn't have any of those skills.
I didn't even think about saving money,
didn't even think about growing money.'t think about growing money it was just
hustling get money and we just figured we could always get it so no matter what
we did even if we fucked up deals we didn't care we could go get another
million dollars for a company in the next four weeks selling some shit yeah
but then when rates turned and the banks cut off and everything shifts like you're
left in this place and a whole generation dudes guy like me that was our first
time making money yeah so when you've made money one way and you've only made it one way you only see the world do that one way
You don't recognize that there's abundance and doing all kinds of shit
No, you can make money doing all but when I was in the real estate insurance and banking world, that's all I know
Yeah, I'm like we're fucked and and there was no capacity in my mind to help me see hey
I have all these skills. I could just go do something else.
Instead, I did what everybody did,
drank, drugs, and an affair.
Because my wife at that time,
I had pushed all our personal money
to try to save the business,
after taking all the company's money
trying to save the business,
and pushed all of our personal assets,
sold everything liquidated trying to save the business,
only to end up at the bottom of the pit
with all the debt on me,
partners, nobody had signed on anything, Everything was on me. The guys who have
been raising money around me, I was one signature away from going to jail for
ten years. Had I signed that document, I'm fucking done. So I'm in this place
where nothing makes sense. My wife hates me, deservedly. I have no money. I have no
network. I have no nothing. And inside of all of this, I was raised in Mormonism,
and I started to run.
Running becomes my outlet.
I'd done marathons for three years,
Ironman World Championships in 07,
right before we lost everything, in Kona,
and I got into ultras.
And so I would just run, that's all I had.
And when I was running, I started to find this stillness.
I listened to conversations with God at the time
by Neil Donah Walsh.
I didn't have anything. I didn't have anything to give anybody. I couldn't see my value for anything.
And my wife wouldn't talk to me. My family wouldn't talk to me. No one was talking to me.
Everybody fucking left. All these people who I'd helped over the years, people who were stuck,
sending their kids to drug rehab, I was just giving money to people. Hey, have some money
because I could always get more.
And nobody came to help me, and I'm glad they didn't.
You wouldn't be here today.
I wouldn't be here.
That's right.
So in that place, running ultras in the middle
of the mountains, I started to hear after about eight
to nine, 10 miles of running, it gets annoying
to listen to music.
You know, podcasts weren't really a thing then.
Right.
And so I'd just sit with myself.
And in the mountains, running on trails,
I started to hear this voice talk to me.
I didn't know where it was coming from.
I didn't know whose voice it was.
I just heard this voice,
and it would have conversations with me.
And so I would run to get to this euphoric place
where everything would calm down.
My mind would calm down.
Everything would stop.
And I could hear this voice as I started walking.
I just walked for hours in the mountains
just having this conversation with whatever this thing was.
I didn't know what it was, and if it was coming from me
or through me or around me, didn't call it God.
At that time, that voice told me
you need to leave Mormonism.
Now, for people who are in a local community,
Christian church, it's no big deal, nobody cares.
But I was raised generationally.
My mother was Catholic,
then she became Mormon, our families were Mormon
in every direction, and Mormonism,
you don't just leave Mormonism.
Mormonism is like a mafia, there's only one out, die.
And so, choosing to leave was Abrahamic for me.
Got it.
Abraham was given three specific instructions,
God said, cool, you want this promised land that I'm promising? You want more children?
You want the stars of the sky and the sands of the sea that the number of your posterity will outnumber those two premises?
Well, here's what I need you to do first. First, I need you to leave your country.
Second, I need you to leave your family. Third, I need you to leave your father's house.
Translated to me, that means you need to leave the world you've created.
You need to leave the stories about your wife, your children, and your life as it is.
And third, you need to let go of all your parents' traditions.
Some of them are on and some of them are bullshit.
And inside it has a beginning stage that all man goes through to be able to learn to trust God.
Now, I didn't know it was God at the time.
I didn't even know I was going through an Abraham experience.
It's only looking back I knew that.
So I did. Left Mormonism.
This thing shockwaves.
Everyone in my networks and world were all Mormon.
Now I'm blacklisted.
This dude is untouchable.
He has leprosy.
You cannot touch this guy.
My wife then was forced into a decision.
I'm a cheater.
I'm broke.
I lied. I lost everything. And I'm running every day decision. I'm a cheater. I'm broke. I lied
I lost everything and I'm running every day and I'm not making money and
She chooses to ride with me for some fucking reason. She says I'm in I think if it was now she'd be gone
If it was then she was young she was in her 20s. She was pregnant with our second daughter
She was scared. She didn't know what to do. She didn't know where to go and
I was just fucking running.
And my wife would look at me like,
what are you running from?
I was like, I'm not running from anything.
She's like, you're literally fucking running.
As I'm putting my running shoes on,
I'm not running, you're such a bitch, stop talking shit.
And then I would run, literally run away from her
and run away from everyone into the nothing.
So that became the beginning stage.
And one of the first things I had a coach back then is Ron Zeller.
And then he was a landmark forum leader.
Okay.
And I got a landmark forum back in 2006 and he knew I was in a bad place.
And he said, Hey, I saw him at this event.
He said, you and I, we should work together.
You need some help.
I was like, no shit.
He says $10,000 for 10 calls.
And I was like, I hadn't really invested in coaching much.
And I looked at my bank account.
I had like $13,000, $14,000, which
was enough to pay the mortgage on one of the homes that I had,
the one we were in.
And I remember having this dilemma.
I was like, if I pay the mortgage,
I'll feel good for a couple of weeks,
and I'll still be fucking stupid. If I don't pay the mortgage and I pay like, if I pay the mortgage, I'll feel good for a couple weeks and I'll still be fucking stupid.
If I don't pay the mortgage and I pay Ron,
at least I'll have somebody in my corner to help me be less stupid and the bank can fuck off.
So I made the decision invested in coaching with Ron and the first conversation we had was a foundational conversation to Bill Warrior.
Mmm. What she says, we're to start with the principle of integrity.
He said, you are a liar.
Mm.
And I was exposed.
And I knew it.
My whole life was a lie.
I will put on the perception of one thing, but inside I was fucking dying.
I had darkness and pain and trauma and decision after decision of so much pain a
Loss of what had been my identity and now I'm trying to figure out who I am
What am I to do?
The thing I knew was I was not going back on the mortgages not going back to real estate not going back in insurance
Although that didn't happen. We had a company called paradigm life, which I gave to one of my partners Patrick Donahoe
he built that into an empire proud of him is great.
And I was committed to this idea of truth.
For whatever reason the whole paradox flipped on me. I was like,
wait a second, in the land of liars, truth is a weapon and when spoken is received as a declaration of war
So I was like well I got nothing offer but truth so I just started speaking truth this is what year is 2009
now is the
Founding principle warrior was truth by the way if you guys don't know the warrior way if you don't know warrior he is the warrior
By the way, if you guys don't know the warrior way, if you don't know warrior, he is the warrior. Make sure, where does everyone want to go?
I mean, obviously follow him on social media.
He's all over my social media.
He's a close friend of mine.
So follow Garrett J. White.
But also, where do you want to have everyone go?
wakeupwarrior.com is a great place to go.
Okay, wakeupwarrior.com.
Make sure you go to wakeupwarrior.
If you're not where you want to be again, the principles your family or business or parenthood any of all of the above
This is gonna be your guy. So wake up warrior comm. Okay, so this was the foundation 2009 truth truth
Which now people talk about authenticity
Or talk about being authentic. This is 2009. Yeah, there's no Instagram. There's no tick-tock
There's no free-flowing iPhones
No, and social media is barely something on Facebook. How are you doing?
Dude, all I did was go and speak truth everywhere people like how are you doing shitty?
That's how it started I remember my first day I was like, you know what Ron's right, I'm a fucking liar
I'm just gonna tell the truth about where I'm at and I'm sitting in a grocery store and this lady goes
How are you today? I go I'm a fucking liar. I'm just gonna tell the truth about where I'm at and I'm sitting in a grocery store and this lady goes How are you today? I go I'm shitty
She didn't know how to respond she was like
Like I just shoved the spoke in her bicycle wheel and she flew over the handlebars
And then I just found how responsive people were how terrified they were of it and I was like hold up
Mmm, so then I go to business bus and exit John Assaraf at the speaker author networking group by Larry Binae in LA in
2009 sure and we're sitting at the I got Bill Baron John Assaraf from the secret and all these people that are big dudes
I'm fucking nothing. I got nothing. I got nothing to offer
I got there because of Chris Crone Chris Crone had brought me under his wing after I was under Gary Gunderson's wing after I lost
Everything Chris picked me up because he and his wife had gone through
An event I ran called soul-purpose intensive Chris like I told me I'm supposed to help you out. I was like, okay
He's like so come under my wing here re IC which was his original company
He's like come be on the team and we'll play so he said hey, I got a ticket to this event
You want to go with me? I was like, yeah, so he'd introduced me as his business partner. It was bullshit
I was a w-2 employee making ten thousand a month seven thousand take home. My bills were like 25,000
I was fucked but at least I had a check so that was good
Yeah, and we're at this event and I'm they everyone's to hear time to share and I just gotten recently in tune with this idea
From Ron that being an integrity and telling the truth would be a good idea. So they go around. Hey, I'm Bill Barron
I'm a billionaire. Hey, I'm John Assaroff, I'm from The Secret, blah, blah, blah.
And they go down, everybody's doing their shit,
and I'm getting kind of nervous and excited at the same time.
And then what's his name who wrote Never Eat Alone?
Oh, what a great book.
What's his fucking name?
Look that up for a second.
Never Eat Alone's a great book.
Never Eat Alone, great book.
He was there speaking, I can't remember his name.
Anyways, Keith Feroz was he.
So he was there speaking and his book was on candor.
He was also speaking about being candid.
So it's kind of just getting cool with this idea of truth.
And he spoke about the more I was like,
fuck it, it's full of saying,
Keith's artists said we should be candid with each other.
So I said, hey, my name, I wasn't Garrett J. White
at the time was just Garrett White.
I said, I'm Garrett White. I wasn't Garrett J. White at the time, I was just Gear White. I said, I'm Gear White.
I used to be something, I lost everything, I had no money. I have about $1,200 on my account right now.
I was brought to this event supposedly as a business partner
with Chris Crone, really I'm an employee for him.
I haven't been an employee since I was a PE teacher
nine years ago.
I cheated on my wife about six months ago.
I have a pill popping addiction right now
that I'm trying to work through.
And I run a lot and yeah, just real excited to be here. And everyone at the table is like,
what the fuck was that? And then I just smiled and I was like, so yeah.
So excited. Are you guys excited?
Excited to be here with you guys. And I remember Vishen, Luke Gianno from Mindvalley was there.
And I had gotten up on the mic and I shared and Vishen will never probably remember this,
but Vishen came up to me after I got off the mic because on the second day they said,
hey, who wants to share and nobody raised their hand.
And so I raised my hand and Larry's like, all right, you come up here.
So I get up on the mic and I'm like, hey listen, day one everybody was really candid and talking honest and open
and now we're kinda back to this bullshit coverup game
I'm noticing and everybody's trying to posture
and position and cock strut.
Like, I think it'd be cool when I took my suit jacket off
and I threw it on the floor.
I was like, it might be cool if we actually told
the fucking truth around here.
And the whole room's like frozen.
Then Mish, Vision comes up to me in the hallway
and he's like, bro.
That was magical. Mm.
Keep doing that.
Whatever that is that you're doing, keep doing that.
Yeah.
And that became the launch into a world of truth.
And what I found inside of truth was this ability for us
to find power
which eventually I come to understand was God. Truth is the access point to God.
A liar cannot access God. A liar is like Adam hiding in the bush blaming his wife.
Adam lied because he was embarrassed. He was ashamed. Prior to the lie, he was not ashamed.
He was naked.
Didn't give a fuck.
He's like, here I am. I'm Adam.
I'm the first dude.
Look at me.
He had no penis to compare against anybody else.
He knew he was the biggest penis on the planet.
That's right.
He's like, I have the biggest cock of all time.
I'm Adam.
That is my woman, Eve.
I'm always wondering how in the world they figured the sex thing out.
If you didn't have anything to look at
and no one to coach you, how do you find that out?
No idea.
I wonder how many holes he tested
before he found the right one.
Couple.
She's like in the air.
He's like, well, that's not gonna work.
He's like, let's try something else.
She probably had to guide him in.
So anyways, that whole space of truth
started me down this path of realizing that I was different.
So I thought.
Until I started sharing all my dark shit.
All the time.
So you thought you were different because you had dark shit.
Then the truth was revealed to me.
Yeah.
And what started happening is guys would pull me aside.
And they're like, dude, like that thing that you just shared,
I had that happen too.
Mm.
Like, the thing you just talked about, like, tell me more about that.
And I started recognizing that not only was I not alone,
I was the normal.
And the weirdos were the liars.
And all men are liars.
And they had been taught, trained, and educated from the time we were born to lie.
And the origin of our tradition comes from Father Adam, who was a liar.
And lying has become the greatest obstacle to success
in entrepreneurism in marriage in life is the inability for someone to tell the
truth and that ties back to reason why we drag the past into the present
because we are embarrassed we're ashamed of our past we're ashamed of our fuckups
we think we're stupid we're sinners and we listen to pastors and we listen to society and we listen to shit
Talkers on social media who tell us we're something
But the greatest lie the atom will believed wasn't eating an apple
It was the eating an apple could make him something he already was
Lucifer said eat of this apple and you'll have you'll obtain the knowledge of good and evil and be like God
He already was literally Literally. He literally was God. Yeah. He was born from the breath of God. He was
God's ultimate creation, although woman was because she was less. And he believed the lie
that he could do something to become more of what he already was. So you watch these entrepreneurs and we create,
we build, we're never happy, we create, we build,
and we lie, lie about what we're feeling,
lie about what we want, lie about where we are.
We can't own the truth because we're perpetually pursuing
this thing to make us feel a certain kind of way.
We drink, we pop pills, we smoke weed, we do these things,
we fuck other girls that aren't our wives.
We do these things all in the hopes that we can feel it. If I make more money, then I. If I do this, then I.
Only finding the end of all of this, if this, then...
Yeah.
We're still lost.
Still hurting. Still not free.
Still stuck.
Put on the face. Marriage gets boring. That's why you watch dudes.
They're married tens and they'll cheat with sixes.
Oh, no doubt.
You're like, what the fuck are you doing?
Women do the same shit.
They're like, your dude is a solid dude
and you just slept with Bobby Bud Light
from the local fucking bar.
What the fucking, Bobby Bud Light's got a hairy ass back
and a fucking garage over his cock
and somehow you thought that was good.
You got a six pack on the drill over here and you can't...
Well, help me understand what's going on right now.
Yeah.
Because inherently the deepest desire for men and women is to be seen.
Hmm.
The problem is you can't be seen unless you see yourself.
So we disrespect ourselves with lies and we disrespect ourselves with half-trues.
And I have to say certain things to you, Justin,
to make you feel some kind of way,
because I feel some kind of way about myself.
And this is why marriages fall apart.
It's why business fall apart,
because we can't get into the truth.
Mm-hmm.
I mean, imagine how hard it is.
Think about this.
People are like, monogamy doesn't work.
I was like, monogamy's hard.
Monogamy is hard.
It is a hard sign up. If you back up on that contract, you're saying,
one penis or one vagina the rest of my life. That's an impossible game. It is legitimately an impossible game.
If you actually evolve in the way God built us to evolve, which is you today will be different than
you a year from now.
That's right.
The woman you're with will be different a year from now.
My woman will be different a year from now.
And along the way, we start to do this.
And there has to be a commitment to re-choose this new version.
The businesses evolve.
You did a million. I'm a badass. Well, guess what? That whole business has to be destroyed to do 10.
And that business has to be destroyed again to do 25. And that business has to be destroyed again to do 50.
It's not fucking one plus one equals two.
The whole mechanism has to be rebuilt. Your processes, your systems, your structures, the way you lead people, everything has to change. So being an entrepreneur and being married and then doing the ultimate of
the trifecta, you think, you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to multiply and replenish the
earth. I'm going to send one shot, full send to the moon and we're going to make a baby.
That's right. You're like, oh, this baby thing is going to be awesome. Easy, they say. So easy. It's going to be great. We we're gonna make a baby. That's right You're like all this baby things gonna be awesome easy. They say so easy. It's gonna be great. We're gonna have a baby
We're gonna post pictures on social media my wife's gonna take hot pregnant pictures
We're gonna post them on the Instagram people gonna champion and cheer us
I'm gonna shoot the fucking cannon and find out if it comes out pink or blue and
Then and then you realize the man. Oh oh shit my wife's been taken hostage
My I just burnt the cock blocker
No, holy shit. I did this to myself that shot just cost me a whole bunch of shots. That's it now
I'm not even getting a shot on goal. No most affairs and most dysfunction in marriage happens with baby number one. Mmm
baby number one Cuz dudes. Baby number one.
Cause dudes aren't prepared for it.
No.
Sex is gonna change.
Some dudes go into like defense mode.
I go into defense mode. I'm like, okay.
Protect the carrier of the baby.
Should I touch her? Should I not touch her?
She needs space. She needs sleep.
Alright, I'll sleep in the other room. You sleep here?
I did all the wrong shit.
Yeah.
All of it. Did it wrong enough long enough. Yeah sleep here? I did all the wrong shit. All of it.
Did it wrong enough long enough.
Yeah. Five times did it wrong.
I got it almost good on the last one.
Almost good.
Almost good on the last one.
Almost it was good.
Yeah.
And now I gotta look back with vasectomy and go,
well, definitely could have done that different.
I did the vasectomy after too. I said I'm out.
I get it. I get it. How
are we in the hedge first? Four years ago so I was 39. Yeah. So I started later
though because I had to go through my fuckboy season. Season was almost two
decades and we have you. But I needed it because I was genuinely being true to
myself like that was no man to give to another human right. So I was like I was
aware enough I had enough emotional IQ to, this isn't the season for me to hitch up a wagon. And so I did that. And then I
found this amazing woman and she's amazing and I couldn't be happier and, and two kids.
And I said, we did what my job was and so now went and snipped it.
It makes sense. I pushed my first job. Well, I didn't push a child out anything. I contributed
a seed to the creation of my son.
There you go.
But I was 22.
Oof.
I'll tell you, listen, I have one of my best friends in the entire planet, business partner.
He married us. Was a Mormon.
Yeah.
Five kids. You have five kids. I feel like you and I are on that best friend trajectory.
Yeah.
And I go, God bless you, son.
Yeah.
Because I have two.
Yeah. And it's the pride of my life, but I'm God bless you. Yeah, I'm because I have two yeah, and it's the pride of my life
But I'm also 43 now. You mean so different being a parent a different place in life. So different, you know
I have 32. I don't think I was in a place right. I mean it is
Brows 22 my ex my son's mother and I legitimately got married to have sex. Mm-hmm
Mormonism more minutes So hey, I got got a plan you know we should do we we technically are not to have sex we'll do everything else but the sex yeah yeah
cuz that's justifiable somehow and then uh but what we're gonna do is wait to
have sex until we get married and we're only getting married to have sex. So we
should go to VEAF. Yeah today get married have sex and then get a divorce which a lot of Mormon young kids do that. Do they really? sex. So we should go to a... Yeah, today get married, have sex,
and then get a divorce,
which a lot of Mormon young kids do that.
Do they really?
Isn't like getting a divorce a big...
And I know that.
It's kind of a no-no,
but it's kind of not a no-no anymore.
Well.
Everywhere.
So, but like when I was growing up,
that's why my parents stay together.
Cause they grew up in a not divorced generation,
same thing with my in-laws, not divorced generation divorced generation it just it was a whole world of people that
didn't get divorced all right I'm gonna take this Congress take how we can go
so first of all out of curiosity you and Danielle have how many together we have
four four girls and the others was and my son was with my previous race and
relationship yeah and the daughter I met yesterday was your oldest she's baby
she's from Danielle the first from Yep, so she's my oldest daughter.
She's almost 18.
18.
She'll be 18 tomorrow.
God bless you too.
So divorce, marriage, I think there's this thing,
I don't know how I feel about divorce
in the sense of I will never get divorced,
but it's also because I took the journey
that I knew was for me, is I waited.
Like I have the hunger that younger men have.
Like I drained myself plenty.
And I have a really hot wife, and she's really supportive,
and I have all these different characteristics.
But I also don't shame divorce in the sense of
you and your first wife were not meant to spend life together.
No, not at all.
And remember to create our son and that's it.
And to your point of this diversion, if you guys can't find a way back
selfishly, cause otherwise you would want to fight to get back, right?
Like you and Danielle have.
Um, I don't know if I shame it either.
Like I'm not a pro divorce guy.
Like, Oh yeah, just fucking divorce the chick or divorce the dude.
He's an idiot.
What are your thoughts on that? pro divorce guy. Like, oh yeah, just fucking divorce the chick or divorce the dude, he's an idiot.
What are your thoughts on that? I mean, you literally shape men, mostly men,
almost all men, wakeupwarriorbytheway.com,
Garrett J. White.
Come on, flex on him.
So, you've seen a lot more in me.
I come from a divorced family.
I will tell you, I think there's something beautiful
in the fact when families can stay together
to fight to stay together.
But I also think to some extent there's detriment
when the fight is just always fighting
and you're staying together to say you stayed together.
Yeah, 100%.
What people don't talk about is they talk about
divorce rates, but they don't talk about happiness rates.
Amen, bro.
So you have all these couples that will stay together.
They're miserable.
They do not want to be together.
So I COVID you saw such a explosion divorce
because people are locked in the room together.
So a lot of you can fake.
Here's the challenge.
So if a dude's in a relationship
with a girl that wants to fuck,
but they fight all the time
and they don't connect to anything else but this,
a dude will stay in that situation
because his penis is being satisfied for 10 to 15, 20 years.
Yeah.
As long as she keeps fucking him, he'll be like just enough.
Like even if she's aggressive with it and strategic with it, she can keep this dude on the hook for a long time because dudes have a short memory.
There's no doubt.
Fuck her, fuck her. Oh, oh.
Oh, oh, oh.
And party brain is like fuck her and other parts like oh, but this is so good, oh boy.
Post cum brain, hey, oh, dude, we're good.
I call it P-O-D, post-orgasm disorder.
Yeah, for sure, you can't think straight.
No.
That's why girls, they wanna know how to get what they want.
Just like, you ask in the quiet, this is the fucker piece.
God built women to communicate and then feel intimate
and then they wanna fuck. Now, when they're younger, younger is different, but as you get above 30 and women are looking to find a place to take care of him
It hit safety and security. They're like I want to be seen then I want to have you inside me
Dudes are like listen. I can't even feel you and tell I'm inside you so
How about we just put me inside you I come and then I can be as intimate as you want to be.
I'll lay here for hours just listening to your nonsense.
I'll listen, and it won't be like nonsense to me.
I'll be like, God, that's so beautiful,
what you're saying right now.
I just am so in love with you,
because you got the post-ball drain experience.
But that's not how God built us.
We both struggle communication and telling the truth.
Then men want to fuck and then feel intimate.
Women want to feel intimate and then fuck. He like cross- and telling the truth. Then men want to fuck and then feel intimate.
Women want to feel intimate and then fuck.
He like cross-connected the game.
So who's going to cross the line first?
Is a dude going to create intimacy and then fuck?
Can he even figure that out?
Most dudes cannot.
That's right.
And or the opposite, can a woman submit and say,
if I fuck this man, who I love,
then he'll be everything I need him to be right now.
Now there's always exceptions, plenty of dudes that fucking are still assholes.
But there's also way more dudes who are good men, chose the woman in his mind.
He's like, this is it, she's it.
Yeah, I see hot girls all over the place, but the truth is, I just want to be in that
vagina.
I picked her.
She's my one
I want why are you holding out on me? What why are you making this such a complicated deal?
I was talking to a guy two weeks ago. I spoke to his vet. He comes up to me afterwards. He's in tears
He's like 42
Made eight hundred thousand last year has four children. He travels bunch for business providing for the family
This woman has everything she wants. He's like, dude, she won't fuck.
And he's crying, he's weeping about it with me.
And I was like, I feel you, dude.
He's like, it doesn't matter.
She's like, I asked her yesterday when I left,
I was like, I'm going on this trip.
Please, can we sexually connect before I go
so that my mind is focused
and I can be connected to you, et cetera.
And she starts into a huge fight.
So I'm pissed off and I'm angry,
and I'm sexually frustrated, and I'm trying,
I'm like, I'm giving this fucking woman everything.
She has the money, she has time, she has everything,
she just holds out.
So these women get just as fucked up about it,
where they don't know how to submit,
they don't know how to even let themselves be submissive in this,
and the guys go as far as they can,
but as the clock starts going, seven to ten days dudes go crazy
Because you're captivated now if you're in an open relationship you got options you got tension sure
This is why people trying to go to relationships because like oh if you know I go fuck her if you're being stupid
Then maybe you'll stop being stupid
How about you stop being stupid because if you're stupid tomorrow, I'm going over there. Yeah. Yeah, and if you're stupid on Saturday
I'm gonna go with her and
So people think this is the answer by the way over relations almost all fail
I was just gonna say almost all fair so what you thought like
Yeah, I don't know of anyone that I was aware of that still together. I had one one guy. No, Keith. Yakie
My guy Keith Keith. Yakie is the only one in Oprah relationship you him and Jesse have seemed to figure out how to make it
Work with each other, but besides I don't know anybody
Yeah, everybody's gone down that path somebody gets into an relation with other person
Then it's considered cheating because now you're an emotional connection and then the chaos begins a fucking divorce
So it doesn't work and it's not solving the problem
But there's this feeling so how do you create that tension where you're like in this monogamous place saying I choose you you choose me that means both
people have to submit yes dual submission guys got to commit to creating
intimacy woman has to commit to putting out and the ultimate goal is can she put
out because she wants it too mmm can he be intimate because he
loves her that's right and not make it all about sex? Can she givingly,
willingly allow her body to be in communion with his because she wants to please him?
Can he serve her because he wants to please her? Not because I'm going to fuck him to
get what I want, I'm going to be nice to her to get what I want, instead of can I actually
do this because I love the person I'm with
can I be intimate sit and listen to my wife for 30 minutes talk herself into a goddamn circle not want to solve one fucking problem not want to do anything but sit there I will sit while she
blow dries her hair in the bathroom and I just sit on the toilet I'm not taking a shit I'm just
sitting on the toilet and I'll look at her and her top's off and she's beautiful And I'm just looking at her breasts and they're amazing and her hair is long
She's just blowing her dry and I'm like you want me blow dry hair, babe, which I'm pretty damn good at it
So I blow dry the hair. We're in the hair industry. I got some skills
So I'm blow drying the hair and I'm not saying shit. I'm like tell me more about that
Wow
Sounds like that sounds hard
Mm-hmm, man, I sure love you.
What else happened?
Okay.
What else?
I won't say a fucking thing, and at the end of 30 minutes, she'll be like,
You were so present, thank you.
And in the back of my mind is a dude I'm like, we fucking went nowhere.
We didn't go a goddamn place.
We literally drove around a fucking block,
came right back to the same spot.
Not one fucking thing has changed.
You still don't solve the problem.
You still don't know what the hell you're doing.
And there's no way out of this cul-de-sac you're in,
outside of us, me ramming a two by four
into the conversation, which when I do,
now I'm not listening.
You don't feel heard.
You don't feel supported.
And I'm not getting laid. So I'm like, well, that's okay.
That takes some deep, deep fortitude.
Massive.
So I was going to ask you, and maybe that was your answer.
How does a man, for all my men out there, how do we fight that fight so we can be present, so we can genuinely submit
to our women who want to have a conversation in circles and be present doing it? What is that
advice that you can give us men? First identity was, listen, you're a dude. God, listen, if God
didn't want your penis to be in a vagina, he wouldn't have put all the sensitivity on the end of it.
Then you wouldn't even want to touch it.
I mean, you don't see dudes walking around
rubbing their knees.
Sound like, hey, I'm gonna go in the bathroom real quick
and rub one out of my knee.
I'm gonna rub my knee out.
No, it's like, dude, your penis was built to penetrate.
That's the thing, and that's not your fault.
Being triggered by beautiful women,
that's not your fault.
That's part of life.
Like, I used to have a hard time with that.
Women know you're lying too. What beautiful woman walks by, she catches you looking.
It's like you can't not look.
It's like full radar.
Yeah, it's just like she knows.
And then she's like, do you think she's hot?
And then she knows you're gonna lie.
And you're like, no, no, no, no, baby.
You're really, they don't want to look at it.
Only you.
And she's like, he's full of shit.
I don't trust him.
So I started getting on it.
This girl walked by on the beach years ago.
Nice ass, big tits, just beautiful body walking by sitting on a towel of my wife
And she walked and she looked over me and I looked at her and I held the gates about three minutes or three seconds
I'll three minutes and she locked vice and my wife's like you just looked at her ass. I was like I did
It's nice
She didn't know what to do cuz I'd always lied about it earlier
No, no, I wasn't looking.
Or I'd do the corner eye under the glasses, just kind of looking.
All fucking dudes do this.
They do it in church, they do it on the beach, they do it at downtown restaurants.
You can't not.
You can't do it here in Miami.
What, dude, here in Miami, it's like-
Your eyes can't go that many different directions.
There's too many.
There's too many.
The only thing that's funny about Miami I've found is like, I'll walk around, dudes won't
look at my wife the look of me. Almost like looking like, hey I'll walk around dudes won't look at my wife, they'll look at me.
Almost like looking like, hey, you know, good job.
Just that quick look at the wife and me.
The only people that don't do that are the Cuban godfathers around here.
Yeah.
These dudes sit at tables, like 20 people at the table, they'll just look right at my wife the whole time.
Oh yeah.
Just look right at her dudes. They're just eyeing her up and down.
And then they'll look at me, no not even a hesitation, they're just like,
and I'll nod to them, they don't even nod hesitation. They're just like and I'll nod to them. They don't even nod back They're just like I'll fucking kill you. I'm like, hey, you know, I take my woman dry
Let's say let's see what happens but inside that space like for guys. It's like can I get to a place of owning my truth?
So when she's going around and around circles talking on my truth
My job is to be immovable
How can I be amovable comes the question.
Well you can't be immovable if you're lying. So what does a liar guy has to tell the truth about?
Sex matters. So I'll ask guys when to come in. I'll say listen, this sex problem we have going on
in marriage, which happens for most men, in marriage and long-term relationships, seasons up
and down and up and down, go through droughts that are horrible. And in that place I'm like, okay, is this problem in sex, is it a divorcible event for you?
Like what do you mean? I was like, if this continues the way it's continuing,
is it a divorcible event for you? Would you leave her over it?
Nine out of ten guys will say yes. One out of ten will say I would never. I said then I can't help you.
Because the leverage isn't leaving. She has to know you're fucking going.
And if she wants to be part of this life with you,
she's gonna come.
If she doesn't wanna come with you,
then she's gonna choose out.
And then in the reverse, you have to be.
Well, the same token goes.
You don't get to play a game, she doesn't get to play.
Which means if this is your demand and expectation,
she gets to have her demands and expectations.
Which is you're gonna fucking listen to me.
And you're gonna do my hair and you're gonna listen
and you're gonna listen to me try to fix a goddamn thing just nothing listen just
want you to ask questions about me idiot don't come home and tell me about all
your business success when you've been gone for 14 hours I don't give a shit
don't tell me about all the cool shit you're doing cuz you're being taken away
from me I don't want to hear about your dumb wake up warrior movement I don't
want to hear about some big deal you're doing I don't want to hear the break
breakthroughs in the guys I want you to focus on me. Hmm
So I stopped coming home and bring a business home. Mm-hmm, and I just put it all down I go right to her
I'm like, hey, hmm. I know you had these 33 things three things going on today. Tell me about first one. How's your book going?
And there's just pure presence connection this but that's impossible if I don't live in truth to myself
Which is acknowledging things I want in life, but all it's also acknowledging where I'm at And there's just pure presence and connection to this. But that's impossible if I don't live in truth to myself,
which is acknowledging things I want in life,
but also acknowledging where I'm at.
Where am I fucking up?
Where am I out of integrity?
Where am I lying to myself?
Where am I at in this stripping away process,
everything we've been doing for 13 years,
we're worried with our tools,
which is helping guys get down
to this base foundational rock of truth.
And the interesting part is, in truth, we call that waking up.
You wake up to a new perspective, like the dawn, like when the sun's coming,
you can't see the sun, but there's light.
Most men are operating in this dark pit and they're trying to
make, create the facade of light.
They're throwing out flares from the pit.
They're throwing out sparklers, they're shooting fireworks.
I'm good.
You're not good, dude.
You have to turn the light on inside.
And the only way to turn the light on inside is not to be perfect.
It's tell the truth.
Mm hmm. But to own that truth, not as a victim, not as a projection,
not blaming your wife, not blaming anybody else.
So this is where I'm at. I hurt.
I'm not happy.
I'm feeling very angry.
I'm very pissed off.
I'm fucking filled with rage
About this situation and it's all my fault
Because I do to be like well my wife this you chose to be with her
You choose to stay with her
If you choose to be over there and choose to stay with her and continue to tolerate this in yourself and in her is your fault You have no you have no hall pass on this. That's right. She's not doing anything to you that you're allowing to happen
So when guys get to truth this light turns on You have no hall pass on this. That's right. She's not doing anything to you that you're allowing to happen.
So when guys get to truth, this light turns on. But the next stage, you have to take a knee.
Take a knee to God, take a knee to truth,
both in where they are,
and now only in the truth of where they are,
the vision of what they could be next.
What do I want?
Real easy to bitch about what you don't want.
Oh, yeah.
Well, I don't want my wife to do this and this.
Okay, what do you want her to do?
Be clear on that.
What do you want that to be?
I have five laws of success.
And I think you've heard them.
But the first law that I believe is that decide what you want and decide who you
need to be to get it.
That is the first law that I tell people. Because if you don't have the clarity of what you want, then you want and decide who you need to be to get it. That is the first law that I tell people.
Because if you don't have the clarity of what you want, then you don't know who
you need to be to get it, to be truthful, to be honest, to go deep in there, to
find the light.
That's what you're talking about.
Yep.
And that's hard.
That's real hard because that comes with, that comes with the price has to be paid.
Because if the truth is known to you and you own the truth,
and then that truth itself is now shared with the world around you,
here is my truth, most of the relationships you win will end.
Because most of the relationships you were built were built on lies.
They're on sand, yeah.
Most marriages were built on lies.
Half of my truth was shared, we built a relationship with the part I had the courage to share,
and the rest of my shit I'm gonna hide.
I'm not gonna tell you what I'm feeling.
Women have to face the same situation,
particularly women that don't produce make money
because they're held hostage in a certain situation.
If I tell this man that produces my full truth,
will he leave me?
Will he abandon me?
If my husband rises in power, will he leave me and now replace me?
So women are going through the same fears.
There's a different set of fears and
Pretty so women have produced and make money and this attempt in the new generation woman to try to feel safe
The only challenge a lot of them are getting into is that they're bringing so much masculine energy into the relationship the guys
It's like fuck you
Holy shit. Let me tell you how this is not gonna go. I just fucking dealt with dudes all day long
I want to come home to a soft one with a vagina and breasts who wants to cuddle me on the couch and talk with
Me I don't want to come home have another goddamn war
I was in fucking war for 12 hours all day long now come home to home war and the castle war fuck this place
I at least can win out there here. I'm in trouble with you. I didn't come home to be in a war with you at home
Holy shit, and I tell us women. I'm like, listen, you want to win?
Drop your fucking masculine.
Stop coming aggressive with these dudes.
They don't like it.
And what you're creating is a bunch of pussy purse boys.
And then the women are unhappy with those guys.
Well, then he's on.
And they all go cheat with the dude who's fucking more aggressive.
But then they get with aggressive, and they try to match his aggressivity. You're like what's wrong with you?
Well, that's not their fault either because they've been taught trained educated be this way too. Mm-hmm
That's why you see powerful women women who run a lot of masculine energy their dudes aren't alpha. Mm-hmm dudes are fucking pussies. Yeah
It's hilarious, dude. I'll see women like it's pretty good in a personal development space
These women are aggressive and all intense you meet their dude It's hilarious dude. I see women like pretty good in the personal development space.
These women are aggressive and all intense. You meet their dude. I don't even have to ask.
There's no doubt.
Because the dude rolls up and you're like, oh sweet baby Jesus, you lotion your hands six times a day.
Your hands are softer than your wife's. I was like, that's a problem.
