S5: Episode 73-What Happens When a Man Finally Stops Running From Himself — with Ryan Spence

Episode Description from the Publisher

Ryan Spence didn't set out to become a healer. He set out to survive. And somewhere between childhood wounds, emotional eating, and a corporate finance career that looked good from the outside, something inside him was quietly waiting to break open.In this conversation, Ryan shares what that breaking open actually looked like — the 2019 spiritual awakening that cracked everything loose, the moment Human Design handed him language for who he'd always been, and what it took to walk away from a life that made sense on paper in order to build one that made sense in his body.What makes this episode worth your time is Ryan's willingness to go to the places most people skip. He talks about mother wounds and self-worth not as concepts but as lived experience. He talks about what vulnerability actually costs — especially for men — and why he considers it the most courageous act available to us. He talks about somatic work, ancestral healing, and what it means to balance masculine action with the kind of rest and creativity that most high-achieving people have been taught to distrust.If you've been circling the edges of this kind of work — curious about Human Design, wondering if healing is actually possible, or just exhausted from leading a life that doesn't quite fit — Ryan's story is a honest look at what the journey can look like when you finally stop managing and start feeling.This one is for the soulful warrior who knows something needs to change but hasn't quite found the door yet.Guest Links: Ryan SpenceSomatic Relationship Coach & Intimacy GuideInstagram: @RyanSpenceCoachingListener Offer:  If you're stuck in relational patterns you understand but can't seem to change — and you're ready to work at the level of the body, not just the mind — Ryan offers a free somatic consultation to explore whether his 1-month or 3-month coaching containers are the right fit.
