Episode 27: Dr. Robert Glover—What is a Nice Guy, Why we need Accountability & Embracing our Shadow
On the episode 27 of the podcast I speak to Dr. Robert Glover, author of No More Mr. Nice Guy. His book has been one of the most impactful I've read in my life, bringing awareness and healing to my life over years, having re-read it again recently. In our conversation Dr. Glover shares the process of writing the book, how he discovered his concept of the 'Nice Guy', and the realization that our common theme is that we generally don't feel safe being ourselves. We speak about the power of mens groups, coaches and therapists in keeping us accountable, holding up a mirror for us to become more aware and grow. Dr. Glover speaks on how it's improved his own relationships and how embracing our shadow can ultimately empower us and enrich our lives.
“Surrendering helps nice guys reclaim their personal power ironically, the most important aspect of reclaiming personal power and getting what one wants in love and life is surrender.”
