278: An Uncivilized Man with Traver Boehm

Published: Sept. 2, 2021, 8 a.m.

\\u201cBe a man.\\u201d It\\u2019s a loaded phrase that our culture uses to tell men to be tough, not show their feelings and just keep pressing on.

\\xa0

But is this true masculinity? Is there a better way to be a man?

\\xa0

My guest today, Traver Boehm, is on a mission to redefine masculinity, bringing together what he calls \\u201cprimal savagery\\u201d and a connection to the heart that is spiritual, emotional and whole. He believes this is what true masculinity looks like, before culture told men who to be, and he spends his life teaching men how to unapologetically become their most authentic self.

\\xa0

And as a woman, let me tell you: this is the kind of masculine energy that the world is looking for!

\\xa0

In this conversation, Traver tells his story of being one of the guys who looked like he \\u201chad it all\\u201d until his life unraveled and he forced himself to look inward at the ways he was numbing his pain. From there, he developed his \\u201cuncivilized man\\u201d ethos that calls men back to their authentic selves and helps them succeed in all areas of life \\u2013 from relationships to work to mental health \\u2013 from a heart-centered place.

Listen to discover:

  • What true, healthy masculinity looks like
  • How and why the culture has conditioned men not to feel
  • Why it\\u2019s so important \\u2013 and manly \\u2013\\xa0for men to do their work and heal themselves
  • What to do when your partner doesn\\u2019t want to engage emotionally and spiritually
  • How to get the things you want in life without killing your soul in the process

Whether you\\u2019re a man looking to be the healthiest version of yourself or a woman looking for resources for the men in her life, I know you will be inspired by Traver\\u2019s beautiful example of what masculinity was designed to be and how healthy men can change the world.

\\u201cPrimal savagery and a deep connection to your heart: that to me is \\u2018uncivilized\\u2019\\u201d - Traver Boehm

\\u201cThe part that\\u2019s been missing has been going into the heart.\\u201d - Michelle Chalfant

\\u201cCulturally, we have asked men to not feel.\\u201d - Traver Boehm

\\u201cThe old paradigm said, \\u2018Men, you are responsible for everything external and nothing internal.\\u2019\\u201d - Traver Boehm

\\u201cWe\\u2019ve numbed ourselves to the point of getting to ignore what is true, which is we are hurting.\\u201d - Traver Boehm

\\u201cWe\\u2019ve got to connect with ourselves \\u2013\\xa0and we do that through feeling our emotions \\u2013 before we can ever connect with anyone else.\\u201d - Michelle Chalfant
