info_outlineToday’s podcast episode is different from every episode before because, for the first time ever, I’m interviewing someone about the power of authentic connection who is not currently in a committed relationship. But, I heard Serdar speak on a panel about masculine and feminine polarity teachings, and his views piqued my interest (plus I was captivated by his voice which you’ll soon understand). Then shortly after that, I saw a post he did on how to have meaningful connected sex, and I knew we were aligned in our ways of thinking and that he would have a lot to offer that will enhance the intimacy in your life.
Serdar is the epitome of self-reflection, living authentically, and constantly growing in connectedness and hearing his perspective as a single male is sure to inspire and nourish you.
You’ll hear us discuss:
- How the challenges in Serdar’s upbringing left him with a strong yearning for connection
- How Serdar defines attachment trauma and how it relates to the way he coaches
- The ways in which Serdar’s concept of connection has evolved over time
- Serdar’s views on sex, intimacy, and connection and his guidance on how to have more fulfilling sex
Serdar’s personal growth journey is truly beautiful and I’m delighted for you to learn from such an enlightened man.
