Today, Michael welcomes Scott Grace. Scott is a highly sought-after singer, speaker, workshop leader, conscious stand-up comedian, author, and life coach who rose to prominence opening for personal growth luminaries like Deepak Chopra, Louise Hay, Ram Dass, Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen, and Marianne Williamson, among many others. Today, he is a life coach who assists men in taking charge of their growth so they can make a positive impact on the world with their masculinity. In his book, Mindful Masculinity: A Book for Men and the Women Who Love Them, Scott uses humor and personal insight–sometimes under the guise of his “altered-ego,” The Spiritual Dr. Seuss (which you’ll hear in this interview :))–to help men transcend the roles, ego, habits, and relationship boxes they might find themselves stuck in, gently nudging them into a more conscious conception of what it is to be successful, purpose-driven, loving, and happy.  During their thoughtful conversation, Michael and Scott discuss: -Scott’s ‘unconventional’ path from illegally selling laundry bags in New York City to singing for Deepak Chopra and Marianne Williamson, to becoming a life coach -What Mindful Masculinity is and what it means to redefine success for men -Breaking free from the inner critic and the trap of “not enough” -Having the courage to cry and why emotional release is essential for men -The importance of freeing yourself from shame and stepping into self-compassion -How Scott was inspired to develop his “altered-ego,” The Spiritual Dr. Seuss, after reading his daughter bedtime stories -Finally–and a first on Take Back Your Mind–Scott sings an inspired song summarizing the key tenets of his conversation with Michael! Next, Michael leads a guided meditation on being receptive and available to our oneness with that which is Eternal.  Connect with Scott at his websites, https://www.scottsongs.com/ and https://www.mindfulmasculinitymovement.com/, and on social media.  Remember to Subscribe or Follow and set an alert to receive notifications each Wednesday when new episodes are available!
