350: Demystifying Men, Women & Polarity With Dr. John Gray

I spent my first 27 years of life convinced that men and women were exactly the same except for the obvious anatomical differences and a boatload of socialization. After a big relationship breakup, I read the modern classic book, Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus, and quickly learned I was wrong about so many things.

Men and women are very different, not just in how we are socialized but in undeniable biochemical and neurological ways that impact us constantly. Different doesn't mean better nor does it mean worse, stronger, or less capable. Different means different—wonderfully, infuriatingly different.

A huge part of what I've been most criticized for in life has nothing to do with who I am as a person; it's just my masculine self expressing itself strongly. And a huge part of what drove me crazy about women was not who they were as people but their very nature that I didn't appreciate or understand. Ignorance, in this case, is not bliss. It's a guaranteed plan for constant conflict at home.

This week, you'll meet the most influential relationship expert on the planet, Dr. John Gray. His books and his work have made their way into just about every school, university, and bedside table in the world. It would be a mistake not to invest time in learning from John.

Listen & Learn:

• How most modern lifestyles lead to hormonal imbalances
• How the feminine "recharges" vs how the masculine "resets"
• Why we need to celebrate differences rather than try to suppress them
• How to navigate the challenges of polarity
