The holiday season is right around the corner, and with it often comes a whirlwind of activity, expectations, and sometimes, a fair bit of stress. But worry not – we're here to help you navigate this festive period with ease and purpose. In our latest episode of The Integrated Man Project, host Travis shares 3 invaluable tips that every dad (and parent) can benefit from.
Here’s a quick rundown of what we covered:
1. Be Present, Not PerfectThe holidays are about connection, not perfection. Whether it's playing a game with your kids, sharing a laugh, or enjoying a family meal together, being present makes all the difference. Your family will remember these moments of joy and togetherness far more than they'll remember the perfect gift or a perfectly set table.
2. Stay RegulatedWe know the holiday season can bring about a range of emotions and stressors. Whether it's work-related stress, family pressures, or societal expectations, the key is to remain grounded. Simple daily practices like breathwork, meditation, or a morning routine can help. When you're regulated, you set a calm and composed example for your kids and create a more harmonious environment at home.
3. Set the ToneYou have the power to set the tone for your family's holiday experience. Approach this season with a spirit of joy, gratitude, and lightheartedness. Remember, your energy and mood can influence everyone around you, particularly your children. Ask yourself daily: What tone am I setting today?
For more in-depth insights and advice, make sure to listen to the full episode. It’s packed with practical tips that you can start implementing right away.
📅 Don't Forget! We're also gearing up for our next 8-week Men's Peak Performance Cohort starting the week of January 13th. If you're interested in joining or know someone who might benefit, check out the details here. It's a fantastic opportunity to kick off the new year with purpose, meaning, and direction.
Wishing you and your family a joyful and stress-free holiday season!

Welcome to this episode of The Integrated Man Project, where we delve into a cornerstone of living a purposeful life: identifying and aligning with your core values. Today, we're exploring the bedrock that shapes your decisions, actions, and your legacy as a man.
In this week's episode, I'll be helping you examine your core values and priorities. These are not just ideals but your inner compass guiding you through life’s trials and triumphs. We’ll explore why defining these values is critical, how to identify them, and the tangible benefits of living in alignment with them.
Show Key Points and Highlights:
Understanding Misalignment:
I discuss how living out of sync with your values can lead to feelings of directionlessness, hopelessness, and burnout. Recognizing these emotional cues is the first step towards realignment. Identifying Core Values:
We walk through an exercise of whittling down a broad list of values to your top ten, then further narrowing them down to your core five. Questions like "What am I willing to sacrifice comfort for?" help refine these choices. Actionable Steps:
Once your core values are identified, it's crucial to integrate them into daily life. This involves setting clear, manageable action steps for each value, ensuring practical and continuous application.Where are you currently out of sync with your values, and what’s causing the disconnect? This week, I challenge you to identify one core value you want to realign with—and create three actionable steps you can take to honor that value in your daily life.
Share your journey and insights by emailing me at [email protected] or on our social media channels.
Start your journey today. Reclaim your purpose. Reignite your life.
Until next week, stay integrated.

Welcome to another insightful episode of The Integrated Man Project with your host, Travis Goodman. Today, we delve deep into the world of mental health with our special guest, Greg VanDyne, a former Green Beret medic turned mental health advocate and med-tech professional.

In this episode, Travis and Greg discuss the fear of rejection, the importance of a supportive environment, and the emotional burdens men often carry in silence.

Greg also shares his experiences with different therapy modalities like EMDR and his pursuit of TMS treatment.

The Struggle of Opening Up: Greg shares his personal journey from recognizing the need for help to overcoming the fear of rejection and worthlessness that initially prevented him from seeking therapy.

We draw parallels between the supportive nature of a military team and the need for such support when tackling personal struggles. Finding the Right Therapist: We entertain the idea of a "speed dating app for therapists" to make it easier for individuals to find the right fit for their therapeutic needs. Greg's candid recounting of his initial disappointments and eventual success in finding a therapist who could understand and help him highlights the importance of persistence in the therapeutic journey.Challenge Question:
How can we as a society break down the stigma surrounding men seeking help for their mental health, and what steps can we take to normalize these conversations from a young age?

Hey everybody - Travis here - today I am excited to dive into a foundational concept in psychology that's pivotal for personal growth and relationships - Attachment Theory! While we don't have a guest on today's episode, I will guide you through this enriching topic.
In this episode, we're going to explore some fundamental areas:
1. **Origins and Founders of Attachment Theory**: We delve into the mid-20th century work of British psychologist John Bowlby, often regarded as the father of attachment theory. Bowlby focused on the bond between the child and caregiver and how these early relationships impact emotional and psychological development throughout one's life. Plus, we'll discuss how Mary Ainsworth expanded on Bowlby's work with her famous Strange Situation experiment, which classified different attachment styles.
2. **Types of Attachment Styles**: Understanding the four primary attachment styles - Secure, Anxious-Preoccupied, Dismissive-Avoidant, and Fearful-Avoidant (Disorganized) - and how each style manifests in relationships and personal behavior. We'll also touch on how these styles influence conflict resolution and mental well-being.
3. **Impact on Relationships and Mental Health**: How your attachment style affects your interactions, conflict management, and overall mental health. Securely attached individuals tend to have better stress management and healthier conflict resolution, while those with insecure attachment styles may struggle more in relationships and mental health scenarios.
Challenge Question: Reflecting on your personal relationships, can you identify any patterns that point to a specific attachment style you may have? How do these patterns influence your interactions and conflict resolutions with loved ones?
So grab a notebook, because you're going to want to take notes as we navigate this complex yet crucial aspect of personal development. And remember, understanding your attachment style can be the first step towards healing, growth, and more fulfilling relationships.

In our latest episode, Jon Fogel joins us to dive deep into the nuances of **emotional health and holistic parenting** from a dad's perspective. As a father to three boys and an influential voice in the parenting creator space, Jon sheds light on the challenges and triumphs of nurturing a healthy emotional environment at home.
Here are three key takeaways from this profound discussion:
- **Integration of Emotions**: Understanding and integrating your fears and vulnerabilities is crucial for emotional health. Jon emphasizes that facing these aspects can lead to a fuller and more authentic life.
- **Impact of Male Cultural Norms**: We explore how societal expectations around masculinity affect emotional development and expression, often leading men to suppress their feelings. This suppression can have far-reaching consequences, including on family dynamics and personal growth.
- **The Role of Apologies in Healing**: The power of acknowledging mistakes and apologizing, especially from adults to children, is monumental in mending and strengthening relationships. It’s a step towards breaking cycles of emotional suppression and trauma.
Don’t miss this insightful conversation aimed at inspiring not just dads, but all parents to foster a home environment where emotions are respected and nurtured rather than shunned or ignored. Perfect for anyone interested in personal growth, healthier family dynamics, and emotional resilience.

Welcome to another profound episode of The Integrated Man Project. I’m your host, Travis Goodman, and today we're diving deep with a very special guest, Davide Pace. Davide is not just a senior psychology student with a keen focus on men's mental health; he's a visionary dedicated to shaping a new narrative around healthy masculinities.
In this episode, we explore Davide's transformative journey from grappling with negative thoughts and destructive behaviors to leveraging small, positive changes that have made a monumental difference in his life. Together, we tackle the internal strife many men face, battling shame, fear, worry, and self-doubt, and discuss the liberating power of self-awareness and the courage to change.
Davide brings his unique perspective on the dangers and benefits of risk-taking, sharing personal anecdotes and insights. His project for a local high school seeks to redefine masculine norms, while his "Innovating Masculinity" podcast is a testament to his commitment to this cause.
Our conversation goes beyond the individual struggle and looks at the broader context of masculinity today, questioning the toxic tropes and rigid ideologies of figures like Andrew Tate. We argue for integration, curiosity, and collaboration as essential tools for personal and collective growth.
As we conclude, you'll be inspired by Davide's honesty about setbacks, his passion for progress, and the small, yet mighty, steps he’s taking toward a kinder, more resilient, and service-oriented life. This is more than just a dialogue; it's a call to action for all of us to assess our own behaviors, learn from our mistakes, and embrace the non-linear journey of self-improvement.
So, tune in, engross yourself in this vital conversation, and maybe find that spark to ignite your own path to becoming a more integrated man. Let's get started.
