#71 Relationships - Your Greatest Playground for Transformation with Simon Paul Sutton
Your relationship will either wake you up or wear you down.
It is one of the most powerful vehicles for personal transformation. It is also one of the most meaningful parts of a well-lived life. Yet almost no one teaches you how to do relationships well.
So, you improvise.
Well-intentioned men and women spend years stuck in the same loops, arguments and emotional explosions.
They feel the pain, but they do not understand the pattern. They want depth, but they do not have the tools.
In this episode of the Father Sons Brothers Podcast, Gareth talks with Simon Paul Sutton, internationally recognised facilitator, coach, speaker, and author.
Simon spent two days with Gareth at his home on the Garden Route in South Africa, where this raw and honest conversation was recorded.
They go deep and speak about the truth about shadow, intimacy, breakups and personal growth.
In this episode, you will discover:
- Why most couples avoid radical honesty, and how that avoidance destroys connection
- A simple and playful framework to meet the different parts of your psyche, including the ones you try to hide
- How Simon used parts work to navigate his most recent relationship ending with maturity and self-leadership
- How Gareth and Simon found their way into men’s work, and why expanding consciousness is not optional for anyone who wants to live a powerful life
If you want a better relationship, start by becoming a better man - press play.
