The Authentic Man Podcast with David Chambers
In this week’s mini-episode, I go on a bit of a rant—because some of the dating advice out there is downright terrible.

In this week's mini-episode, I dive into why therapy alone isn’t always enough to break the cycles keeping men stuck. From intellectual insight with no emotional change to the absence of real-time feedback and challenge, I break down why many men stay trapped in old patterns—despite doing the “inner work.” I also reveal what actually moves the needle: embodied practice, nervous system regulation, accountability, and being witnessed by other men in a safe space.
