#473: Former NFL Player Turned Men's Performance Coach Keyen Lage on Mastering Intimate Relationships, Understanding Sexual Polarity and Building Deep Meaningful Friendships!
Keyen Lage is a former NFL Athlete who sustained a neck injury that effectively ended his career. However, he managed to turn that into a positive and started on a new journey in his life. He decided to dedicate his life to helping others reach the pinnacle in their own lives through helping men master the art of becoming "world class" in whatever they pursue, along with mastering their intimate relationships. Over the last seven years, working with thousands of men in helping them be as successful as possible in their career/intimate relationships, he realized most of the issues men face boil down to two things. A lack of knowledge or a lack of emotional alignment. Here are some of the thing we talked about in today's podcast: How embracing loneliness can lead to more self-belief and less need for external validation The psychology of dating multiple women Sexual polarity and why you are attracted to certain types of people What it really takes to become a "man" and how that determines the type of women you will attract Finding people you can have deep and meaningful connections with And more (Website) Keyen Lage (Instagram) Keyen (@_thegenie) • Instagram photos and videos (LinkedIn) Keyen Lage - Emotional Intelligence Expert - Keyen Lage | LinkedIn (Facebook) Facebook
