Welcome back! Another solo-pod with Brian! Today's topic is driven by the question, "why am I abandoning myself?" This seems like a strange question on the surface, but when you start getting into it, you begin to recognize that a lot of what you do day-to-day is not actually FOR you, but to work AGAINST you. When we sacrifice our wants and needs for ourselves to support others, how are we blocking ourselves? How are we avoiding the things we need to get done, or things we need to do to show up for ourselves? How are we actually abandoning ourselves when we try to do things for others all the time? This is a loaded question, and one Brian tries to break down in this episode. If you like it, subscribe and rate, and follow Brian on Instagram, @lifewelldunn.

Episode 50! 50 episodes later, and every person I get to talk to brings me to a new level of learning, thought, and outlook. This episode is no different, except I get to chat with my wife! As a Marine, my wife knows about challenges. She is no stranger to hard work, as she grew up having to fight for everything she had. We chat about different energies, our challenges that we've faced as a military couple, moving to a different part of the country, and just being married. The challenges run deep, from masculine and feminine energies, to just struggling to create our own individual experiences. Whether you're a man or a woman, single or in a relationship, Morgan and I hope that you're able to learn from our experiences, both positive and negative, and walk away with some new interests.
