In this episode, get to know Bob Conlin, a passionate men's coach and retreat facilitator. As a devoted husband, Bob emphasizes the transformative power of emotional work and the importance of vulnerability in men's lives. He discusses the often overlooked emotional and energetic load men carry. He shares his insights into how societal norms around masculinity have encouraged men to suppress their emotions and the critical need for supportive communities where men can openly share and grow.

We discuss the importance of community and support systems, whether through therapy, coaching, or trusted friendships, to help men process their emotions and experiences. Bob describes the profound impact of retreats, which offer a safe space for men to connect, reflect, and heal. He stresses the challenge of integrating the lessons learned from these intense experiences into everyday life, advocating for small, consistent actions, and maintaining connections with others who understand the journey.

Throughout the conversation, we explore the concept of vulnerability as a pathway to personal power and authentic living. We challenge the traditional "lone wolf" mentality, urging men to embrace vulnerability and community as essential components of a fulfilling life.

In this episode, Dylan sat down with Jack Donovan, a prominent author known for his work on masculinity and modern paganism. Jack is the author of several books, including "The Way of Men" and "Fire in the Dark." He is also the founder of the Order of Fire, a group dedicated to exploring and developing a new solar culture.

Jack and Dylan dive into the concept of the three archetypes central to Jack's philosophy: the Father, the Striker, and the Lord of the Earth. They discuss how these archetypes represent different aspects of masculinity and their roles in creating and maintaining order in society. Jack explains how these archetypes are derived from historical myths and universal themes, emphasizing the importance of the father figure as a guiding and rule-setting leader.

The conversation also touches on the often-overlooked work of the Lord of the Earth, which involves the day-to-day tasks and relationship-building necessary for maintaining stability. They explore how modern men can balance the excitement of the warrior archetype with the essential but less glamorous responsibilities of everyday life.

Jack shares insights on the Order of Fire's mission to create a new cultural aesthetic that reflects positive masculine values and how they aim to inspire art, music, and literature that embody these ideals. Tune in to learn more about Jack's work, his vision for the future, and how you can get involved with the Order of Fire.
