This one is for Dominant men, and for the women who want to understand them. I work through an idea out loud while Dawn reflects it back: in every relationship there are two relationships happening at once, the physical and sexual one where I lead and give, and the emotional one where Dawn gives and I receive. Both have to be tended in polarity, or the circuit breaks and things go flat. Underneath it all, men are always searching for freedom, and we go after it either by chasing comfort or by building the strength to be free no matter what.
We get into numbing, distraction and the nice guy's habit of dodging hard conversations as little moments of cheap freedom, and how decades of choosing the easy route leave a man with no fire left in his eyes. Dawn challenges me that taken freedom was never freedom at all, and shares what she felt when the spark came back into my eyes as I poured myself into this work after a job that was draining me. I talk about confronting childhood pain, cold showers, how her emotions became energy once I opened my heart, and why love is the check that keeps authority from becoming tyranny.
If you've been taking the easy freedom and feeling your life get smaller, Becoming a Dominant Man walks you through the process I went through to build my own inner strength. Start it here:
