Get it here: https://infinitedevotion.com/unshakeable ~~~ In this episode, I dismantle the common misconception that Dominance is just a role you play in your relationship. It’s not. True Dominance begins as an internal state—a deep, grounded strength that reshapes your relationship with yourself, your body, your mission, your leadership… and yes, your submissive. This is the episode I’ve been needing to record for a long time. After working with hundreds of men, I’ve seen a pattern: when a man begins to embody Dominance not as performance but as identity, every area of his life changes—career, parenting, social presence, spiritual depth, fitness, integrity, sex, and love. This episode is a roadmap for that kind of transformation. You’ll learn:  • Why your relationship with yourself sets the tone for every other relationship you have  • How inner Dominance enhances your leadership in work, parenting, and community  • The direct link between self-respect and sexual authority  • Why setting emotional boundaries prevents burnout and deepens connection  • How embodiment makes you magnetic—and why that matters more than charm  • The hidden cost of nice guy energy in your life and career  • How grooming, health, and fitness are spiritual practices for Dominant men  • Why your life is what tells her it’s safe to submit—not your rules  • And how to step into vision-driven leadership that reshapes your entire reality   You’ll also hear personal stories, client breakthroughs, and actionable challenges to help you find your next edge as a man committed to power, truth, and freedom.   ⸻   Resources mentioned:   • 🔥 Free email series: Unshakeable  • 💪 Online course: Becoming a Dominant Man   • 📚 Online course: Structuring Your D/s Dynamic  • 🧭 Blog: Core Values Exercise for Dominant Men   ⸻   If this episode spoke to you, leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts or drop a comment on YouTube. Share this with a man who’s ready to become unshakeable.    Because when one man rises, he invites others to rise with him.   ~~~   Becoming a Dominant Man is Andrew's flagship course for Dominant Men.

In this raw, revealing, and richly layered conversation, Andrew welcomes writer, speaker, and feminine guide Ginger Kern to the Dom Sub Devotion podcast. What unfolds is not just a dialogue—but a masterclass in embodied polarity, truth, desire, and what it really takes to create sacred union. Together, they dive into:  • The difference between performative desire and embodied eros  • Why truth—not integrity—is the highest value in a power exchange relationship  • How men and women both must submit to something greater to be truly free  • The journey of a woman learning to trust her voice, her body, and her desires  • What it feels like to be in the presence of a man who is aligned with truth  • The trap of the “Hungry Mind” and why embodiment—not more knowledge—is the portal to change  • Conditional vs. unconditional love in the context of devotion, polarity, and human relationship  • The erotic, energetic, and existential responsibility of being fully in your human experience   Ginger brings nuance, reverence, and fierce clarity to what it means to be a vessel for life, love, and truth. Andrew challenges listeners—especially men—to claim their full power not through force, but through unwavering alignment.   This episode is for you if:   → You’re tired of trying to “do” submission or Dominance and want to live it → You’ve felt the call to union—but haven’t known how to embody it → You crave truth, depth, and integrity in love, sex, and self-leadership → You’re ready to go beyond the surface and hear what devotion actually demands   ⸻   Ginger Kern is a writer, mentor, and guide for women on the path of the devotional feminine.

 After last week’s conversation with my friend Christina (@solarfemininearts) about her pulling back from her work to fully drop into being a wife and mother, I realized it was time to share what’s been happening behind the scenes in my own marriage—and what’s evolved for us since Dawn pulled back from the podcast and Infinite Devotion a few months ago.    This is the full update on our dynamic—what’s shifted, how it’s evolved, and why it’s never been hotter, deeper, or more alive than it is right now.   Dawn had a moment of truth at the beginning of the year where she knew—without a doubt—that she needed to step away from our business and this podcast. It didn’t make logical sense, and part of both of us resisted it. But I chose to lead us through it. And what it’s created in our lives, our marriage, and especially our D/s dynamic… is almost indescribable.   In this episode, I break down exactly how her surrender has deepened, how I’ve had to grow as her Dominant, and why I had to stop softening around her ego and start holding the standard without apology.   I also open up—publicly, for the first time—about how much our sexual dynamic has exploded. Kink, obedience, ownership, and submission are now more central to how we live. We haven’t shared much about the sexual and kink side of our dynamic for good reason, but avoiding that truth going forward would mean hiding the most alive and real parts of our relationship.   If you’ve followed us because of the emotional depth, the love, the realness—we’re still here for that. But we’re also done leaving out the erotic truth at the heart of it all. This is the life we’re living. And it’s time to let you in.   ⸻   Inside This Episode, I Share:   • Why Dawn stepped away from Infinite Devotion—and what that made possible  • How over-analyzing our relationship started killing our polarity  • The exact shifts I made in my leadership to meet her deeper submission  • How I stopped backing down when her resistance showed up  • Why her resistance was often a mirror of my own hesitation  • What it means to raise the standard instead of lower it  • How kink and obedience have taken over our sex life—in the best way  • Why I’m done hiding how erotic our marriage has become  • And why the results of living this way are showing up everywhere: more love, more fun, more money, more freedom   ⸻   02:08 Dawn's Decision to Step Back 03:01 Impact on Relationship and Dynamic 04:56 Living the Dynamic More Authentically 07:41 Changes in the Podcast and Business 13:29 Traveling and New Adventures 14:36 Growth in Dominance and Submission 20:49 Embracing the Sexual Side of the Dynamic 24:52 Facing Resistance and Raising Standards 34:16 Public Perception and Social Media Growth 42:57 Concluding Thoughts and Future Plans   ⸻   Connect with Us:   • Follow Andrew and Dawn on Instagram: @_infinitedevotion  • Learn more at infinitedevotion.com   If You Loved This Episode:   • Share it with a friend who needs to hear this message.  • Leave a 5-star review and tell us what landed for you.  • Tag us on Instagram and share your favorite moment!   Becoming a Dominant Man is Andrew's flagship course for Dominant Men.

In this deeply vulnerable and powerful episode of Dom Sub Devotion, Andrew sits down with longtime friend Christina McBoyle (known on Instagram as @solar.feminine.arts), to explore the humbling, life-altering journey she has been walking through marriage, motherhood, and identity death. Christina shares intimately about her evolution from being a widely recognized feminine embodiment teacher to being initiated into living her teachings on an entirely new level. After marrying her husband Ryan within six weeks of meeting, becoming pregnant shortly after, and moving through the intense transformations of wifehood and motherhood, Christina realized that the very identity as a teacher and healer that had once empowered her was now standing in the way of the deeper love and union she craved.   This conversation covers:  • How Christina’s years of teaching feminine embodiment eventually revealed hidden blind spots in her own life  • The moment she realized her work was blocking her capacity to fully surrender in marriage  • The subtle ways purpose and service can become hidden ego attachments for women  • The painful but essential process of descending into deeper truth and authenticity  • What it really feels like to give up old identities and allow love, devotion, and motherhood to fully reshape you  • A raw discussion about women, work, purpose, survival mechanisms, and letting go  • Why true union requires ego death—and how that’s more liberating than terrifying  • Practical wisdom for women feeling the tension between their careers and their deepest relational desires   This is a rare, real, unscripted conversation between two people devoted to living what they teach—not performing it. If you are a woman navigating the gap between what you know and what you live, or if you’re longing for a deeper experience of love, union, and surrender, this episode will speak straight to your soul.   ⸻   Guest:    Christina McBoyle  Instagram: @solar.feminine.arts ⸻   Connect with Us:   • Follow Andrew and Dawn on Instagram: @_infinitedevotion  • Learn more at infinitedevotion.com   If You Loved This Episode:   • Share it with a friend who needs to hear this message.  • Leave a 5-star review and tell us what landed for you.  • Tag us on Instagram and share your favorite moment!   Becoming a Dominant Man is Andrew's flagship course for Dominant Men.

This episode is for the woman who’s tired of performing. Tired of feeling stuck in her head. Tired of trying to be the right kind of woman—when what she really wants is to be all of herself.   If you’ve ever felt the war inside between being soft and being powerful… Between being seen and staying safe… Between following your impulse and following the rules… This conversation will wake you up.   I sit down with the fiercely embodied Madelyn Moon—author, teacher, and artist of love—for a raw, electrifying, and liberating exploration of what it means to fully express. Not just with your voice, but with your whole body, your shadow, your heart, your pleasure, your rage. Madelyn shares how she guides women into deep energetic capacity—through sacred theater, shadow work, and radical self-expression. If you’ve ever struggled with perfectionism, people-pleasing, emotional repression, or disconnection from your body, this episode is your medicine. ⸻ 🔥 WHAT YOU’LL FEEL IN THIS EPISODE   • Why your impulse is the most trustworthy thing you have  • The difference between performance and embodiment   • How shadow work can set you free instead of shaming you  • What it looks like to reclaim rage, grief, humor, and desire  • Why you don’t need to fix yourself—you need to express yourself  • How grief can soften you open if you let it  • Why being witnessed in your truth changes your whole nervous system   This isn’t surface-level empowerment. This is the descent into your body, your knowing, your wild, holy truth.  And you’ll walk away feeling more permission than you’ve ever felt… to be all of you. ⸻ 🌹 WHO THIS IS FOR   • Women exhausted by trying to do it all right  • Women who want to stop hiding and start feeling   • Women ready to use their voice, their art, their body as an instrument of liberation  • Women curious about sacred rage, erotic power, and reclaiming grief  • Women who feel too much—and are starting to realize that’s their gift  ⸻   ✨ CONNECT WITH MADELYN MOON   • 📸 Instagram: @madelynmoon  • 🌐 Website: maddymoon.com  • 🎁 Free 3-Part Series: The Unfuckwithable Artist     ~~~ Madelyn Moon is a leading voice in the world of feminine-masculine relationships, devoted to serving women in liberating their expressive, artistic hearts with themselves, with partners, and with the world.   Her work and story has been featured in hundreds of podcasts as well as various publications such as BBC, The Huffington Post, Teen Vogue, Thought Catalog, Nylon Magazine, The Daily Mail, Vice, Greatist, Men's Health, PEOPLE and ABC News Nightline.   Madelyn is the host of the top 100 ranked podcast, The Madelyn Moon Show, and the author of the best-selling book on conscious intimacy, Artist of Love.

In this profound and powerfully honest episode, Andrew is joined by Traver Boehm—author, speaker, and founder of the Uncivilized Men’s Movement. This raw and revealing conversation dives deep into the emotional and spiritual reality of being a man in today’s world.   Traver shares the personal story behind his movement, how heartbreak and disillusionment cracked him open, and why he’s devoted his life to helping men reclaim both their primal power and emotional truth. Together, Andrew and Traver explore men’s sensitivity, the cultural disbelief in men’s inner lives, and the loneliness and pain so many carry silently.   Traver also opens up about his experiences with darkness retreats—radical, solitary immersions into absolute darkness—and how they’ve initiated him into deeper self-understanding, ego death, and trust in his own soul’s call. He offers a powerful challenge to men: Dare to feel. Dare to be fully human.   This episode is a must-listen for any man who’s ever felt alone in his pain… and for anyone who’s ready to meet the courage that lives inside vulnerability.   ⸻   What You’ll Learn in This Episode:   • How Traver turned heartbreak into a mission to support men  • Why emotional sensitivity is a masculine strength, not a weakness  • The hidden epidemic of male emotional isolation—and how to break it  • Why the phrase “I’ve never said this out loud before” changes everything  • How to balance emotional expression with purpose, structure, and spine  • The truth about numbness, avoidance, and the cost of living half-alive  • What it’s like to spend 28 (and soon 49) days in total darkness—and what that journey reveals  • Why Traver believes something must break for a man to be reborn  • How to cultivate a human experience that’s raw, real, and relational  • Two sentences every man needs to hear: “I believe you. I believe in you.”   ⸻   Links & Resources:   • https://www.instagram.com/traverboehm  • The Uncivilized Nation  • Preorder Traver’s New Book: 28 Days in Darkness   • Listen to Traver’s Podcast: The Uncivilized Podcast        ~~~   Becoming a Dominant Man is Andrew's flagship course for Dominant Men.

This is a conversation I had on A Date With The Divine with Isabelle Stephan—and I knew immediately I needed to share it with all of you here on Dom Sub Devotion as a bonus episode. It was one of the most potent, grounded, and heartfelt conversations I’ve had on love, polarity, Dominance, and the deeper spiritual truths that live underneath our dynamics. I didn’t want you to miss it. In this episode, Isabelle and I explore:  • What it actually means to live in polarity in a long-term relationship  • How my wife Dawn and I transformed our marriage through embodying Dominance and surrender  • The emotional truth underneath a woman’s “too much” and a man’s “not enough”  • Why most men fear a woman’s full emotional range—and how to become the kind of man who can hold all of her without collapse  • What everyday masculine leadership looks like—from structure to sexuality to sensitivity  • Why feminine surrender doesn’t happen through force, but through deep trust in his strength  • The truth about polarity: it’s not something you try to “do,” it’s what naturally arises when you let go of what’s in the way  • And how all of this is not just about relationship—but about meeting God, not through light and ease, but through destruction, healing, and the fire of full embodiment This isn’t a theoretical conversation. It’s real, raw, and personal. I speak directly from my lived experience as a man, a Dominant, and a husband walking the path of total devotion and truth. I’m honored to bring this episode to you. May it move something in you the way it moved something in us. — Andrew     🎙 Originally aired on: A Date With The Divine with Isabelle Follow Isabelle on Instagram @Isabelle_a_stephan 🎧 Shared with love and gratitude on Dom Sub Devotion  📲 Follow me on Instagram @_infinitedevotion  Find out more about my work at https://infinitedevotion.com

What if the real reason your relationship feels flat, passionless, or distant isn’t because of the circumstances… but because you’ve been performing instead of living? In this solo episode, Andrew peels back the layers of what Dominance and submission actually mean—far beyond the kink, the rituals, or the roles. He shares the deeper truth of what’s really happening underneath these dynamics and why, when lived fully, they become the most powerful structure for radical intimacy, erotic connection, and personal transformation. Whether you’re deep in a power exchange dynamic, brand new to the concept, or think you have no interest in it at all—this conversation will wake something up in you. You’ll learn:  • Why intimacy isn’t about sex—it’s about truth.  • How polarity actually works (and why most people don’t understand it).  • Why you can’t fake attraction—and how to reignite it.  • The difference between performing roles and living from authentic devotion.  • What masculine and feminine surrender actually looks like.  • How this work heals not only your relationship, but your entire life. This episode is for anyone who knows there’s more possible in love, in sex, and in life—and is ready to stop performing and start living. ⚡ Ready to go deeper?   https://infinitedevotion.com https://instagram.com/_infinitedevotion       ~~~   Becoming a Dominant Man is Andrew's flagship course for Dominant Men.
