The Grateful Show

Take a better look at your life.

What do you see?

Is it clean and clear or messy and foggy?

Do you really deserve what you have got now? 

Traver Boehm knows men. How they think, what’s behind their behavior, and most importantly — their unique challenges in the modern landscape.

Traver is the founder of the UNcivilized Men’s Movement, the fastest growing men’s movement in the world. He is the author of Today I Rise, and Man UNcivilized as well as a two time TEDx speaker, men’s coach and podcaster.

Drawing upon an eclectic background ranging from professional bodyguarding and Mixed Martial Arts to a Master’s Degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine and meditation, Traver counsels men, women, and couples on how to better understand men’s mental health and relationship difficulties.

Although he’s not quite sure how to feel about the title, he has been dubbed, “The Man Whisperer” as he has the unique ability to speak to men in a way they can hear and understand.

In 2016 after losing a pregnancy, his marriage, and his business partnership all within weeks of each other, he created a radical year long social experiment to answer the questions, “Who am I and who am I as a man?”

Highlights of the year include:

Volunteering with the dying as a hospice worker

Meditating for 28 days straight in complete isolation and pitch-black darkness in a Guatemalan hut

Living in the frigid Utah wilderness for a month with only a knife, a water bottle, and a blanket

With a passion for people and a unique lens through which to view the human experience, Traver is a highly sought after teacher in the fields of consciousness, intimacy, and personal development.

When not teaching workshops or radically shifting the way men experience their masculinity, Traver can be found obsessing over a single word in front of his laptop, chasing surf around the globe, and being awful at yoga.

During our conversation we touch upon topics like: 

• How us as men love to go through hardship together
• How the world’s gotten easier and easier and we now have to re-create the difficulty as men
• How it's primal for men to want to test themselves against the world
• Learning through pain and why it's vital that we don't avoid it when it comes into our lives. 

Born and raised in Chicago Illianoi our guest has an incredible story to share with us all today. Wayne is Somatic a Release Breathwork Practicioner, embodiment coach and faciliator for the global men’s group The Sacred Sons. His way of living led to the failure of a marriage of 11 years - at 36 years old he was divorced and witnessed the loss of everything he's built up until that point. However, that was the spark that lit a fire into Wayne's heart and spirit. That's when he really started diving inwards. 

Here are just a few of the topics we dive into during our incredible conversation: 

• honouring one's truth
• how to navigate a dark period in your life
• becoming vulnerable … how to cultivate a community
• why you can’t “mindset yourself out of” your own trauma
• how Wayne’s commitment to meditate for 21 days has helped him build good meomentum
• building a daily ritual, a sacred practice that will allow you to sit with your own self - nourishes your body

What drives happiness?

What is the difference between pleasures and happiness?

Why can't you always be happy and how can you be in such a state of mind that you only or mostly attract things that fulfill you and your need?

We answer all of these questions in todays podcast.

What to hear more about us?

You might be wondering: "What makes us human?" - is it the ego?

You might say: "Ego shaped into who we are right now, so how can it be the enemy?"

Well, belive it or not, duality is in every single thing that exists(and not), including in the EGO.

With that said, this  episode is a spiritual one.

So take off your pre conceptions, and listen this one with an open mind.

So often we forget how important it is to challenge ourselves day in and day out in order to grow and shine.

In today's podcast episode we are discussing 2 extremely challenging situations that we had to overcome (one of them is super funny as well) in order to get in life where we are now.  

So, relax, tune in, open your mind, and let's grow together dear friends.

Author of 2 Best-Seller books, Kute Blackson was on Larry King’s Show and Tom Bilyeu’s Impact Theory. He doesn’t like to think of himself as a ‘coach’ as he often uncoaches people through his transformational teachings.

His speaking career started with him speaking in the church when he was 8 years old.

Back then he started visualising his successful life and how he’d help hundreds of people transform their life whilst sitting in the dark.

Kute shares a true story from his early career when he held an event where only 2 people showed up.. and the lessons he’s learned from that experience.

Kute talks about how conditioning works and how we’re basically conditioned from a very young age into thinking that our ego is everything and how we hold on to that self-constructed identity only to live in misery and regret later in life.

Kute’s mom battled cancer and the story of how he lived with regret for not being near his mom until she got sick is absolutely shattering, but also inspiring.

“True greatness requires a level of surrender in a profound way”

“What life can manifest through you is more than you can manifest on your own!

“The lies that we tell ourselves are part of what blocks our ability to surrender”

Today's episode is probably one of if not the most 'red pill' conversation we had on the show so far. Our guest owns the blog ‘Breaking The Matrix’ which he started 15 years ago. Along his journey he helped awaken tens of thousands of people. His most known account, Breaking The Matrix was deleted from Instagram in early 2021, and at the time it had over 100k followers. 

Because of how controversial he is, our guest goes by the name of Morpheus or Morphy.X without giving away too much about his personal life and story. 

We discuss quite a handful of topics that once again question anything that you might call 'real' or 'true'. 

• ever since he was born, he’s been looking for answers
• Morpheus always felt like he had a higher calling and has strived for more alignment with his higher self
• how indoctrination starts when we’re young
• secret societies, The Cabal, Luciferianism
• why he decided to leave everything behind and move out of Canada
• how love is the purpose behind our soul and it’s the code behind our DNA

In today's society there is so much adversity and change that we don't even know that we are (or not, most probably) the only ones who are going through some specific type scenarios cases.

That's why we tried to recall our past obstacles and tried to help you get past them easier if you are experiencing something similar to us.

Make sure you leave a 5 star review if you have enjoyed this episode. 

Today, our guest is a peak performance coach who practices what he preaches. Some of his most recent achievements are doing 100.000 push-ups in 2021 and completing David Goggin's 4x4x48 challenge twice so far. He's a best selling author, Tony Robbins award winner and an overall incredible man. Jeff came on the podcast to share his life story so far and how he found the fire within himself about 7 years ago when he lost his mother to breast cancer. Jeff talks about why consistency is more important than intensity in the long run, why and how you should build a foundation first before aiming to pursue anything tremendous and more. We touch upon sleep and how the big majority of people have been led to think that a good night of sleep is just something that happens accidentally from time to time etc, how to optimise sleep for peak performance plus Jeff shares some priceless advice on what's allowed him to meditate every single day and keep other habits in check for over 1300 days now. 

In today's episode we're delighted to bring a somewhat controversial, counter-narrative topic that might offend the average citizen. Since we know you're not the average citizen and are constantly seeking the truth in everything, we thought to let you in on a raw, uncensored topic. 

This episodes reveals some of the so called 'news' that have been circulating around the world recently as well as gives you a shift in perspective. If you're open minded you will welcome this opinion and you might even implement some of the actionable advice given. If not that's completely fine, we're not for everyone. 

Enjoy listening! 

In a world full of Joe's and Jane's, how replaceable are you?

Do you have something to give back to the society that we are in?

This question and a few more will be answered on today's podcast by your guests.

Make sure you answer them as well.

Our guest today helps high performers hack their emotions to create massive shifts in life, relationship & business. Rick spent the past 10 years exploring his personal and spiritual growth after arriving at a pivotal point in his life when building a business in his early 20’s that achieved “success”. He now lives in Costa Rica and is very well known for his impactful content on social media.  After having a breakthrough experience with LSD at 19,  his whole perspective on life shifted. He started a business, got into competitive bodybuilding and did most of the things that society portrays as ‘success’. It didn’t take Rick long to realise that something was missing. That’s where a whole new story started being created. We touch upon

• how people can build their life around positive emotions they’ve experienced
• cleaning generational trauma .. and how this in itself could be our life purpose.
• What is currently going on in the world.. ask yourself: where am I playing a role in this ?
• Learning how to regulate your nervous system
• How a lot of people operate from a place of emotion avoidance.. Rick was lifting weights and moving his energy around, but he was not healing himself.
• Dealing with a change of identity or a relationship that is not working with gratitude.. gratitude will allow you to level-up and let go. of what’s not serving you anymore in a more graceful way

In today's episode, we're going to discuss about the actual things that affect your mental and physical health.

We're going to shift the narative and blame the actual factors in your life that keep you in one place.

Our guest today was once lost in the chaos of life dealing with infidelity in relationships, insomnia and even depression. Today he’s a high performance mentor, author, speaker and podcast host. Kevin teaches leaders how to cultivate more polarity in relationships, fully align in business, and unlock their speaking voice.

His salvation came whilst he was emerging himself in studying philosophy. That has led him into exploring yoga, martial arts and plant medicine.

Our conversation covers a topics such as:

• Kevin shares how in the beginning of his journey, he knew a lot of theory…but there was no embodiment
• Our guest shared why he’s a big advocate of following your bliss and starting with what’s interesting to you
• We ask Kevin to explain us in general terms what tantra is and how it works in our physical reality
• We cover why it’s our responsibility as people to help advance consciousness
• We touch upon the subject of government and how we are played as ‘the victims’. - How to deal with having got the vaccine just so that you can live your life and he truth behind it all
• Exponential technology is here to help society enter a new cultural enlightenment
• Transhumanism and why it’s not a good idea…
• Masculinity epidemic and what’s lacking from society right now - polarity of the sexes

A mith, a legend, a reality, everything we need to stand for, who and what is God?

Should we all pray the same, or even pray at all?

Find out the roots of the religion and what religion should really be about in today's episode! 

Originally from Colombia, Silvana was raised in a very strict environment,  she went to catholic school.. later moved to Miami only to lose herself and then really find her true self. She is now a feminine empowerment coach - deep internal emotional healing + plant medicine facilitator. 

We talk about how us as a collective have gotten disconnected from our roots and traumatised throughout generations.

We challenge Silvana with a few tricky questions upon the evil in the world which she explains why is manifested from a place of ignorance and unknowing of the true divine within.

Here are some of the topics we covered throughout our conversation: 

• how to manage your emotions in moments of anger.. how to be the observer and not be one with the emotion
• dealing with repressed emotions - and the difference between masculine and feminine energy of dealing with it
• how. we are the observers of the dance and the dance itself
• healing, and why you need to acknowledge and feel emotional baggage that hasn’t been felt.
• how plant medicine is a spiritual technology that exposes our energy which is overwhelming, hence everyone should have a shaman with them

From facing one’s shadow and dealing with repressed emotions all the way to plant medicine and immortality…tune in and emerge yourself with this podcast episode!

We don’t have to chase happiness, we have to choose happiness. And that's exactly what we focus on in today's episode. We discuss how in today's world, the problem is the fact that fighting for what we want has been almost engrained in us..

Everyone has the freedom to choose what they want, but the issue comes when people dont know how to access this freedom.

If you feel like right now your faith is predetermined, the only remedy that you can have is acceptance. Because at the end of the day, you can't change anything that is bound to happen, can you?

Born and raised near Glasgow, Scotland, our guest today played rugby throughout his childhood and that has got him into weightlifting and strength and conditioning. Colin's career has always been in the business development space after having graduated from University. Our conversation took place purely because of his involvement with fitness. That all dates back in 2017 when Colin really started to take his personal brand seriously documenting his fitness journey on Instagram. 

We discuss how Colin used fitness to improve all arread of his life and why he considers that if you can’t govern your own body and responsibilities, you can’t govern other people either.

We dive into an interesting subject about how a lot of people achieve massive success in their careers at the expense of their health.. and why this is not the path you should strive towards.

Colin shares a story dating from 2019 when he was made redundant after 8 weeks of only just joining a new company …it was very tough at the time, but Colin managed to keep his sanity and action forward. By doing so he got an introduction to the world’s biggest insurance broker at their office in Glasgow.

Colin shares what his biggest goals are for the future,  but he also shares why he’s more process-driven than outcome-driven which he found very insightful. On top of this all, we also talk about his experiences with alcohol and why and how he decided to go sober in 2019.

With a new season comes new expectations and we are here to blow yours out of the park! That’s why in today’s episode we first dive into our goals with the podcast for 2022. We are also sharing some of the things we have prepared for you in the coming weeks.

They say music is an outburst of the soul... what we know for sure is that our guest today has really put his soul into his music! Born in Canada, Dan Szabo knows as ZABO, has started to tap into his drive from a young age doing bodyweight exercises. He always knew that the conventional 9 to 5 lifestyle was not for him and luckily got introduced to the Dance music scene about a decade ago. Shortly after he got interested in making his own music, and the rest is history... No, but really: 9 years later, he is an unique and upcoming music artist that is going to shake the electronic/dance scene. He's most known for songs like "Breathe" , "Drown" or "Crusade" which together have over 15 million listens on Spotify alone. ZABO was kind enough to sit down and walk us through his journey, his lessons and incredible experiences. He also shared how at the end of 2019, he got invited to play three shows in China, and at the time he was not even aware what a huge audience he has there. All in all we had an incredible discussion touching on creativity, drive and philosophical questions. Make sure to listen to this one on headphones as we've prepared some gems for you. Enjoy! 

It's almost 2022.

You are planning to change your life and your habits next year isn’t it?

Of course, like any other year.

But there might be a small problem.

How many times have you actually managed to accomplish what you have set in a year?

Probably never, right?

Why is that? What are you doing wrong?

Well, it all starts with SETTING some GOALS for yourself.

And we’re not talking about setting them for the next year.

This time you are going to set the NOW.

Go and listen to this podcast episode where we help you set some realistic goals and many other tips and tricks, and then start creating a plan for yourself.

What are you waiting for?

This is not an episode about failure, but one about what striving out of one’s comfort zone feels like. Our guest today has reinvented himself by moving from his original country, India to the UK to study robotics. He’s now got a reputable position as an electronics engineer for one of the most reputable automotive brands in the world, and is also doing mentorship on the side. From having to live frugally during his university years to opening and scaling a youtube channel and instagram presence, Daksh has read hundreds of self-help books which he applied on his journey.

His mission is to help teenage Indians that can’t leave the country develop healthy habits and mindset to build a good life for themselves.

If that wasn’t enough, this man’s biggest goal is to create his own education system.

From philosophy, stoicism to the importance of habits, and avoiding acting on impulses, we navigated a wide as well  as deep spectrum of topics during our conversation.

"We are just amplifiers of what’s been said before. We are making old ideas relevant to modern times"

“If you want to do something long-term, you need to calm down your impulses"

You came from work and now all that you want to do is to chill and watch some Netflix, maybe cook something but there might be a problem.

You didn't do enough things to actually get ahead with your side hustle,

That side hustle that you want to transform into a MAIN HUSTLE.

Why is that? It's so god damn anoying isn't it?

Why can't you just start working for yourself?

Find out why and how can you change that in today's episode.

You are talking to someone..

Things are getting hot,

You start yelling because you completely disagree with what that person just said,

That person yells back because it has an ego to protect

Everything is a mess, you start hating that person from that moment.

You go home,

You start rationalising what has just happened and you realise that you shouldn’t have yelled.

Maybe if you just stopped and analyzed the whole situation before getting angry life would have been on a whole different journey for you now.

What can you do to change that?

Breath in, relax, listen to this podcast episode and you’ll find all the solutions that you need.

Our guest today had to go through a complete transformation after her 16 years of marriage came to an end. Suddenly, 95% of the people in her life left and she was left on her own to figure it all out. Someone else would’ve thrown in the towel at that point, but not Leah. Battling her thoughts and situation at the time, she was fortunate to be introduced to Wim Hof. Shortly after she started following the WHM religiously every single day. It didn’t take long until Leah came to realise how powerful the technique really was and then decided to study and become a certified Wim Hof Instructor.

She came on the podcast to share her story, as well as talk about the benefits of WHM at length. Not only that, but Leah opens up and shares one of her most transformative experiences in a cold river. She describes it like having her body separated from the mind and simply feeling one with everything around.

We talk about cold exposure and how it can be used by anyone to gain focus, energy, immunity and overall master their mind.

We're about to reach a pinnacle in mass chaos sooner or later. The whole world is upside down. What's true? What's a lie? Who to believe? What to do? Some people have been living harsh spiritual awakenings whilst others are still battling their inner demons. Despite all of it, there's one last thing that you have control over. It doesn't matter if you are fat, fit, black or asian. It doesn't matter if you believe the government and follow the media mass fear or not. This concept is still with you for some time and you're in charge of controlling it. If you manage to take control of it, you can harness its true power and attain riches. It can lead you towards your bigger desires... Yet if you fail to take control of it.. you'll be led on an endless spiral towards misery. The choice is yours, and if you've read all the way, it means you're ready to take control of this one thing and change your life for the better. Tune in, listen with an open mind and heart and truly apply what's being said - your life will transform in front of your eyes.

Most of us know what we should be doing, we know what's benefitting our life in the long term and what's there to distract us from the path. Yet only a few people do manage to fulfil their goals and reach success in life. There's one thing that sums up all the obstacles and distractions that keep one away from reaching success. This one thing has been keeping people unhappy and miserable since the beginning of time.. 

In this episode, your hosts highlight some of the most powerful lessons from 'Outwitting the Devil'. This specific book is a work of fiction that was written in 1938 by Napoleon Hill, yet because of huge interests, it was only released in 2011, long after Napoleon's death. Too controversial? Or maybe it contains too much truth? 

Tune in today's episode and discover for yourself.

Throughout time, every religion shared it. It's universal and applies to each and every human being no matter their race, ethnicity or spiritual beliefs. Yes, we're talking about belief itself. A topic that hasn't been given enough credit down to its core. People only know about the surface level through things like Law of Attraction, which indeed does work to a certain extent, yet belief has way more depth to it. In this podcast, your co-host Pascu talks about this depth and how we've all been victims of mass thinking. Moreover he speaks about how the law of suggestion has been used throughout the years by people like Hitler to achieve a certain objective. This same technique is being used in our present days by the elites to establish new dogmas, beliefs and sects.
