On The Next Man Up, Coral Osborne interviews her friend Rick Andstrom about masculinity, trauma, and healing. Rick introduces himself as a dad and retired Navy SEAL (25 years in the Navy, 20 as a SEAL), describing post-military work including facilitating psychedelic-assisted therapy, time in Ukraine, and founding Mercury Human Performance, a “human performance lab” blending synthetic shooting, fitness, and wellness practices. He recounts a difficult childhood, what drew him to SEALs, multiple medical washouts from BUD/S, and how mindfulness training helped him succeed. Rick discusses the psychological and neurological toll of war, repetitive blast injury, taboo around mental health care, anger, suicidality, and losing friends to suicide. He explains how MERT/TMS led him to psilocybin, then VETS and a supervised ibogaine program in Mexico, including insights about his life, addiction, and reconciliation with his mother. They emphasize integration, meditation, non-judgmental awareness, and uncertainty in intimacy, and Coral shares how Rick facilitated psychedelic sessions for her and her family, leading to greater honesty, acceptance, and connection.EPISODE THEMES📝📌 Healing the Mother Wound📌 Mindfulness Through Pain📌 War Trauma Invisible Wounds📌 Nonjudgment and Nonduality📌 Psychedelics and Spiritual BypassingEXCLUSIVE OFFERS 📣https://www.coralosborne.com/podCONNECT WITH RICK 📩Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rick_andstrom/CONNECT WITH CORAL OSBORNE (THE NEXT MAN UP)🎙️Website: https://www.coralosborne.com/podcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/theunrealcoralosborneYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@nextmanupwithcoralSubstack: https://substack.com/@coralosborne
Coral Osborne of The Next Man Up interviews personal development coach and speaker Garrain Asé about identity as something fluid, creating spaces where “the child inside the adult is happy,” and how radical vulnerability became his life’s purpose. Garrain shares his hero’s-journey background - his father’s murder at 12, feeling racially in-between, juvenile detention and prison, over two years of homelessness, and $250,000 debt, before committing to personal development, repeatedly reading The Power of Positive Thinking, and publicly confessing hidden truths online, which he says led to messages from suicidal people and eventually to bestselling books, global speaking, and financial success. They discuss why humans crave “real,” how unspoken resentments explode in relationships, and how his separation with his wife led to deeper intimacy through accountability and truth, including co-parenting strategies to maintain a unified signal for their children. Garrain offers practices for shifting mindset through action, community, meditation, and sensory exercises to build intuition, and outlines current projects: an album (A Signal of Truth), Tribe Mind mastermind, and an Austin event (The Magical Unlock), plus his name change from Jones to Asé.EPISODE THEMES📝📌 The Power of Positive Thinking📌 How To Reverse The Aging Process📌 Male Intuition📌 Cultivating Presence 📌 Saving Your Marriage EXCLUSIVE OFFERS 📣https://www.coralosborne.com/podCONNECT WITH GARRAIN 📩Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/garrainaseThe Magical Unlock: https://go.artistpower.com/explore-magical-unlock-day-1?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bioCONNECT WITH CORAL OSBORNE (THE NEXT MAN UP)🎙️Website: https://www.coralosborne.com/podcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/theunrealcoralosborneYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@nextmanupwithcoralSubstack: https://substack.com/@coralosborne
In this episode of The Next Man Up, Coral Osborne interviews David Sutcliffe, a former actor (Rory’s dad on Gilmore Girls) who transitioned in his late 40s/50 to become a core energetics practitioner, describing the modality’s somatic, psychospiritual roots and how group work helped him access rage, grief, and deeper connection. They discuss shadow integration, sexuality as a portal to unconscious material, and the importance of boundaries, proper qualifications, and humility for facilitators amid performative social-media “authenticity.” Sutcliffe explains why he interviews and “humanizes” figures like Andrew Tate, arguing society needs provocateurs to expose distortions, and shares his nonjudgmental approach and impressions of Tate. The conversation explores leadership, tolerating being misunderstood, spiritual acceptance of light and dark, partnership dynamics, men’s integrity and “frame,” women’s projections, and how mothering in relationships functions as control.

Stirling Cooper returns to The Next Man Up with Coral Osborne to discuss modern dating, commitment, and intimacy. Stirling explains how men often sort women into “wifey,” “situationship,” or “secret” categories, noting a man’s readiness to commit depends on whether his “door” is open, often tied to financial stability and life stage. They explore how women can move between categories via accumulated green/red flags, and argue men primarily want peace, appreciation, respect (especially in public), and to feel useful, rather than drama or “challenges.” They critique waiting too long to define intentions, suggest asking direct questions before sex, and discuss sexual chemistry, teasing/anticipation, and enthusiasm as key to desirability. They cover social proof, status dynamics, “what do you bring to the table,” vulnerability vs trauma dumping, and announce Sterling’s upcoming guides for women, including a blowjob guide and “Wifey Formula Decoded.”EPISODE THEMES📝📌 Teaching Bedroom Performance📌 Optimal Courtship Formula📌 Secure vs Anxious Women📌 Cuckold Fetish Theory📌 The Art of TeasingEXCLUSIVE OFFERS 📣https://www.coralosborne.com/podcastCONNECT WITH STIRLING 📩Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stirlingcooperCONNECT WITH CORAL OSBORNE (THE NEXT MAN UP)🎙️Website: https://www.coralosborne.com/podcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/theunrealcoralosborneYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@nextmanupwithcoralSubstack: https://substack.com/@coralosborne
On The Next Man Up, Coral interviews adult performer, activist, artist, and master fetish trainer King Noire, co-founder of Royal Fetish Films with Jet Setting Jasmine. King recounts being kicked out at 17, homelessness, and entering adult work through paid shoots and underground New York BDSM/swinger scenes, learning kink hands-on and emphasizing consent and safety. He discusses fetish exploration, shame, fantasy vs. reality, and how trauma shifted his boundaries after being beaten by police while restrained. King explains Royal Fetish’s mission to create better-produced work and avoid fetishization, rejects race play, and names off-limits content like age play involving minors and incest/step themes. He describes his non-monogamous relationship with Jasmine, co-parenting with age-appropriate sex-positive communication, and current projects including his album “Holistic Medicine,” new scenes, and a 10-year fetish-quiz data study unveiling desires among Black and brown participants.EPISODE THEMES📝📌 Why Sex Work Matters📌 Madonna Whore Healing📌 Raising Sex Positive Kids📌 Non Monogamy Done Right📌 What Counts as a FetishEXCLUSIVE OFFERS 📣https://www.coralosborne.com/podCONNECT WITH KING NOIRE 📩Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therealkingnoireSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/5BBL5TC5T4JpEa46ccWZGp?si=3M6_J5caTQaIxtu95JRiPwApple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/album/sellinit-celibate/6776832505?i=6776832506YouTube: https://youtu.be/TgCGsRpFzPk?is=imMco40Wa9uDH_-sWebsite: https://www.kingnoire.com/CONNECT WITH CORAL OSBORNE (THE NEXT MAN UP)🎙️Website: https://www.coralosborne.com/podcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/theunrealcoralosborneYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@nextmanupwithcoralSubstack: https://substack.com/@coralosborne
Coral Osborne hosts Rory Christopher on The Next Man Up to unpack modern masculinity, attraction, and “male magnetism,” which Rory frames as two traits: power (groundedness, steadiness, direction) and passion (emotional aliveness, expression, attunement). They discuss why attraction collapses when men become dependent on a woman’s responsiveness, lack intimacy skills, or treat women transactionally, and why “simping” often reflects covert contracts. Through stories (missed bids for connection, sexual rushing, situational confidence), they emphasize micro-moments, curiosity, and authenticity over performance. Coral shares her background in sex work and how nonjudgmental presence revealed men’s hidden selves; Rory shares his shift from insecurity to relaxed confidence. They cover dating apps as a “video game,” fail-fast voice notes/FaceTime, women’s testing for steadiness, sexual communication frameworks, and Rory’s upcoming free blind-spot quiz at malemagnetism.com.EPISODE THEMES📝📌 Attunement In Practice📌 The Key To Male Magnetism 📌 Eight Intimacies Framework📌 What Men and Women Truly Desire📌 Pam And Tommy LessonsEXCLUSIVE OFFERS 📣https://www.coralosborne.com/podCONNECT WITH RORY 📩Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rorygoodlifeMagnetic Man: https://docs.google.com/document/d/17jrVD7tqLDqHpdxkWbgrfTtQtoSTimHMjy_oFn7l0GU/edit?tab=t.otqcf4kqoaq4#heading=h.r9k0qw7m55iwCONNECT WITH CORAL OSBORNE (THE NEXT MAN UP)🎙️Website: https://www.coralosborne.com/podcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/theunrealcoralosborneYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@nextmanupwithcoralSubstack: https://substack.com/@coralosborne
In this episode of The Next Man Up, host Coral Osborne interviews Aaron Michael, a sexologist and intimacy coach, about modern masculinity, sexual shame, and how disconnection can block pleasure. Aaron shares his evangelical missionary upbringing, early curiosity about sexuality, and career shift from helping people overcome dating anxiety to teaching “embodied love” and practical protocols for deeper intimacy. They discuss how people can lack concordance between psychological arousal, emotions, and physical response, and how taboo and power dynamics can trigger shame and shutdown. Coral describes her difficulty orgasming with a male partner, rooted in control and sex-work conditioning, and recounts a bodywork session with Aaron focused on embodied consent, active receiving, breathing, and regulation. Aaron explains mental arousal triggers, the erotic landscape, and a cervix–heart connection that led to Coral’s emotional release and “heartgasm.”EPISODE THEMES📝📌 Agency Versus Bypass📌 Prince To King Tease📌 Erotic Landscape Map📌 Heartgasm Explained📌 Truth Responsibility CycleEXCLUSIVE OFFERS 📣https://www.coralosborne.com/podCONNECT WITH AARON 📩InstagramAwakened Woman 2.0CONNECT WITH CORAL OSBORNE (THE NEXT MAN UP)🎙️Website: https://www.coralosborne.com/podcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/theunrealcoralosborneYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@nextmanupwithcoralSubstack: https://substack.com/@coralosborne
In this episode of The Next Man Up, host Coral Osborne sits down with renowned clinical psychologist and sex therapist David Ley for a candid and thought-provoking conversation about sexuality, pornography, relationships, desire, shame, and the misconceptions that continue to shape modern sexual culture. Drawing from decades of clinical work and research, David challenges popular narratives around porn addiction, sexual shame, monogamy, infidelity, kink, and sexual diversity while offering a nuanced perspective on what actually drives healthy sexual behavior.Together, they explore the psychology behind cuckolding, hotwifing, and stag-vixen dynamics, the role of attachment and trust in unconventional relationships, why shame often fuels sexual struggles more than sexuality itself, and how society's failure to teach sexual communication leaves many people navigating intimacy without the tools they need. The conversation also dives into porn literacy, male emotional health, modern dating, rejection, consent, sexual negotiation, and the importance of approaching sexuality with curiosity rather than judgment. What unfolds is a fascinating examination of the ways sex, identity, relationships, and personal growth are deeply intertwined.EPISODE THEMES 📝📌 Porn Addiction Myths & Sexual Shame📌 Cuckolding, Hotwifing & Stag-Vixen Dynamics📌 Attachment, Jealousy & Relationship Security📌 Sexual Values, Personal Growth & Self-Acceptance📌 Why Sexual Literacy Matters More Than EverEXCLUSIVE OFFERS 📣https://www.coralosborne.com/podCONNECT WITH DAVID 📩Website: https://www.davidleyphd.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidleyphd/CONNECT WITH CORAL OSBORNE (THE NEXT MAN UP)🎙️Website: https://www.coralosborne.com/podcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/theunrealcoralosborneYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@nextmanupwithcoralSubstack: https://substack.com/@coralosborne
