The UNcivilized Podcast with Traver Boehm

One of the challenging parts of navigating big change is accepting when the change may already have taken place internally for you — but your external circumstances are still the same. In this solo episode I share a story of leaving my old business and how it felt long before I “left the building.” Recognizing this pattern is a massive step towards traversing it with grace and ease. Change is hard no matter what, understanding the process can make it less so.

"The driver who hit me got two years in prison. But I got a life sentence." Those were the words of today's guest, Andrew Bernstein, in an essay for Outside magazine in 2021. After suffering a car accident, breaking 35 bones, dropping into a coma, and becoming paraplegic, Andrew sees his experience as a new beginning. Learning to live in a new body is not easy. It means facing new challenges, people's looks, a different level of interaction with others, among many things he did not have to deal with before. Today, this incredible man will tell us his story and what people with disabilities go through daily. He'll even share what it's like to go back into the dating world and become vulnerable about his story from the very first conversation. Remember, disabled people are just like everyone else.

In this solo episode I’m inspired by a terrible relationship meme to go over the priorities an UNcivilized man should have BEFORE getting into and WHILE in a conscious relationship. This is bound to upset many codependent people…so be it. Gentleman, putting your relationship before your other needs is a recipe for disaster. Ladies, having a man who puts your relationship ahead of his life mission is the same.

Seven years ago tonight, I made one of the best decisions of my life —  to quit drinking alcohol. Here’s the most surprising thing to most people about this: I’m not an alcoholic, nor was I one at the time. In fact, I wasn’t even considered a heavy drinker and can’t tell you the last time I had gotten drunk. But I drank what was common for a man my age in the civilized paradigm, a few beers throughout the week and more on weekends. Nothing crazy, but it added up. Quitting drinking is and can be one of the most powerful choices you can make on your path to authenticity, full expression, and making presence your super power. In this solo episode that I know you’ll enjoy, I dive in further.

This episode is going to upset people, be warned. In this solo piece I break down how Nice Guys so often turn their romantic partners into one of two archetypes: A) The Prostitute archetype B) The Mother archetype Neither of these is healthy, aligned, or sustainable. Both lead to resentment AND a completely dead sex life. Dive in, hang on, and prepare to be triggered whether you’re a man or a woman as we break down this extremely common yet often overlooked relationship phenomenon.
