"That, I would love to hear about," He said, when referring to topics they already know, circles that they've already circled.
In 2023, it was hard to leave out the cool ideas and serious good sounding bites of the program I've already talked about (AMP). But I wasn't ready to …

I went to say hello in public. I felt some chills realizing this before going out. I got a bye bye, and my response was louder than I would like it to be.
Let's break this down.
After recording an audio about my experiences with women in a local context …

The guy is up for the exercise in front of one of the female AMP coaches. He has to ask her questions while she sits in front of him with a loving expectation, so to speak. The guy first question didn't land, as she hesitates. After a couple of directions …

A friend of my dad came to pick some stuff he had left for him. I opened the door and exchange a few comments about the career I'm studying, for a second time as an adult. He says: you are only missing the title, cause you are already an architect …

"I’m pacing", Decker says to the girl in front of him to reassure the context and let things unfold with intention, a bit of control of the recording set up and a way to let her know where he's at.

I just exploded.
It happens to be just the flavor of rage that my sister used to play on me when I was younger. I never quite get she was hurting. I only remember my reaction to it. Was a brief moment, but now I get that something happened prior …

I’ve …

When things are fucked up, you call the eraser.

The last video
While I watched Bryan contain a young man in an emotional catharsis, I got more sober about the process. This is a course in Oslo, Norway. The course was called Morten Hake Summit, an event named after the organizer, that invited the most respected coaches and men in the pickup and personal development scene. This was Bryan’s take on the value of feedback cultures, a video available for purchase in the Vimeo platform. They are doing practices for fostering feedback and awareness on how to communicate our expectations and reactions from the other. Bryan then invited the participant to practice a very short version of the feedback loop with a woman, all in front of an audience. The feedback process is basically a silent approach—getting close to another person without saying a word. Guys all over are worried about what to say when they approach a woman or a highly renowned person. This process eliminates that need. We say a lot without even opening our mouths.
