Hard. Unemotional. Tough. Rational. Stoic. Rugged. Macho.

These are the kinds of attributes that were long associated with men, and which seemed to be demanded by society. To some extent, the world may have for a number of years actually needed men with these kinds of qualities. To some extent, these qualities may have actually served a beneficial purpose. But looking at the world today, it’s hard to imagine what possible purpose they serve now.

David & Tommy believe that the era of the macho man has come to an end. Welcome to the era of

The Heart-Empowered Man!

What exactly is a heart-empowered man anyway? To some of the members of the old guard, it might seem that such men are weak or feeble-minded or fearful or any of a host of other diminutives, but the Soul Talk Guys believe differently, and they’ve invited three very powerful, purposeful, self-reliant—and fully heart-empowered—men to bring their brand of compassionate authenticity to this week’s show.

Come join this episode and meet:

• Chris Kyle—a prominent leader and teacher in the ManKind Project, as well as a dynamic coach and founder of the Ascendant Company.
• Jewel Love—a dedicated Marriage and Family Therapist, counselor and teacher who focuses on promoting and supporting responsible fatherhood.
• Kevin McLeod—a brilliant writer, poet and hip-hop artist who blends his wisdom and enlightened teaching with his art in some amazing ways.

If you are curious about what it means to be a real man, then you won’t want to miss this show! Tommy is away on vacation for this episode, but David is present to host these men and moderate a discussion in which you learn several keys to being a responsible, magnificent man:

• Knowing who you really are.
• Uncovering and living your purpose.
• Acknowledging, understanding and empowering the archetypal energies that are always available to you.
• Keeping a clear focus on your vision for the kind of world you want to create—for yourself AND for your loved ones.

And ladies, a special invitation to you: Invite the men in your life to watch this video with you! You won’t regret it.

What if you came to this planet to do a particular job?

And what if you had to go through all the hell, hardship, and suffering in your life as part of the plan. For—perhaps—only having gone through that level of human pain and anguish are you able to turn around and help others. What if?

Well, this week, Tommy & David dive right into their second year of Life Mastery TV with a powerful episode that will challenge you on this very issue—and we all love a challenge, right?

Just imagine…

Suppose you’ve already completed the prescribed “hard part”, and all you have to do now is teach others what you’ve learned? Maybe you’re done with the trials and difficulties; maybe it’s time to get on with doing what you came here to do?

Exciting, huh? Consider a powerful and exciting potential future for yourself:

• A future that fills your heart to overflowing because you know who you really are and you have a clear sense of what you are here to do;
• A future that flows like the inspiration that touches you when you witness others step into their power;
• A future that wraps you in love, hope, and joy.

Well, friends, it’s right there in front of you. All you have to do is reach out and take it. And only you can do what you came here to do; no-one else can do it for you. Remember, David & Tommy are here to help, and you can get some of that help for free right here, right now! What do you have to lose? You know you want to. You know you’re ready now.

To experience yourself as a whole person, you must intentionally exercise all four aspects of yourself—regularly.

Author Rumer Godden said

Everyone is a house with four rooms: Physical, Mental, Emotional, Spiritual. Unless we go into every room EVERY day, even if only to keep it aired, we are not a complete person.

When you go to the gym, if you want to get a proper workout, then you have to exercise your body in a variety of ways. This usually includes some form of stretching, cardio-vascular, and strength-building exercises. No matter what particular form of exercise you do, you will have to make sure to warm up adequately before putting stress on your muscles, and any decent fitness instructor will also tell you to do a proper warm-down, followed by some relaxation to allow your body to integrate the benefits of your exercise.

To extend this metaphor a little further, it’s pretty obvious that if you want to keep yourself physically fit, then you can’t expect that to happen by going to the gym just once! On the contrary, you have to make a regular practice of working out—and, for best results, you must integrate that into your overall lifestyle.

This same idea holds true not only for your body, but also for your mind, heart, and spirit. In order to be fit in these areas of your life, you must develop a regular “workout” practice for them as well.

At Life Mastery TV, you’ve heard Tommy & David talk repeatedly about:

• the importance of “feeling”—that is, allowing your emotions to flow through you;
• keeping your mind clear by reducing inner chatter and taming the power of your ego-mind;
• turning your attention inward and connecting to the wisdom of your own soul.

When you exercise these three areas of your life with the same dedication and passion that you do to keep your physical body in shape, you are taking very good care of yourself—LOVING yourself unconditionally. And this creates natural fulfillment in every aspect of your life. Not only that, but it also inspires others to follow your example and live their lives more fully!

In this week’s episode, David & Tommy talk about Life Matters 360 (a fulfilling and rewarding practice of lovingly exercising all four “rooms in your house”), and provide some guidance about how to integrate this into your life.

Everyone likes to feel useful. Everyone needs a purpose. Good news: you already have one!

You may not know what your purpose is just yet. Or maybe you have an idea, but it just hasn’t fully taken shape. Perhaps you’ve found your purpose and are already living it—in which case, Congratulations!

Regardless of where you find yourself, the truth is, you have a purpose. And when you uncover it, you’ll be able to live on purpose.

In his book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Stephen Covey said

What truly matters most to you in life? What do you want to be, to do? It’s never too late to examine this, and what you discover is a direct portal into your values.

This clearly points to your purpose and the benefits you’ll have when you are living it!

But just because you have a purpose doesn’t mean you’ll suddenly be thrust into the limelight or made to change professions. It’s not necessarily like that. Your purpose may be public—meaning you agreed to do something that puts you in front of others—but your purpose may also be simply to hold peaceful energy for the planet—for example, by gardening in your back yard.

Your purpose may become your paid profession, or it may be something you practice in your spare time, or it may be something you do in the background in all aspects of life, like Being something— Peaceful; Loving; Compassionate.

The one thing that seems to be common among Purposes—the lasting ones, the ones that keep calling you back—is the element of helping or serving others in some capacity or another. Another thing Purposes seem to have in common is that when you’re engaged in yours, you’re likely to be more present and in the moment.

And best of all, your Purpose is something that you will absolutely LOVE doing!

In this episode, Tommy & David help you to remember the importance of having a purpose, and guide you through a process to uncover the one already within.

Most Spiritual or Metaphysical philosophies teach that “everyone has a Life Purpose“. Often, however, we experience blockages to our Life Purpose—including the most serious blockage of not even being aware of a purpose!

This week, we have invited a special guest, Chris Kyle, to participate in a deep discussion about purpose—with specific focus on how to remove some of those blockages.

As the creator and host of The Power of Purpose Online Summit, which drew 5000 participants from 85 countries around the world, Chris is definitely a world class expert on the subject of Life Purpose, and the perfect addition to this week’s webinar.

Enjoy the video, and remember to leave a comment at the bottom of this page. Also, when you get a chance, please visit Chris’s website at The Ascendant Company.

Integrity is a kind of moral compass that senses resonance with Life Purpose. Learn to use this tool to detect and correct misalignments in your life.

Integrity is one of those things that all of us seem to know and recognize intuitively, even if we can’t define the term in a succinct way. Not only that, but integrity seems to be a very highly prized quality in others. If we are in relationship with a person of high integrity—that is, a person whose words and actions are consistently aligned—then we tend to develop a high degree of trust for that person, even if we disagree 100% with what they are choosing to do.

On the other hand, if we are in relationship with someone who is out of integrity on a fairly regular basis, then our trust level will eventually drop to a minimum, and we’ll probably not want to be in relationship with that person—no matter how amazing we might otherwise judge them to be.

But what exactly is integrity? Why is it such a desirable quality? What does it mean to live a life of integrity? And how can we use integrity as a way to keep ourselves aligned with our Spiritual Purpose for Being?

Today, we examine these questions and more, and we provide you with some tools you can use to help keep yourself in integrity.
