Become a thriving God-led King living your fullest life of holistic mastery · Council of Kings

• 0:01
  SPEAKER_00: There's a saying attributed to Jesus Christ,
• 0:05
  SPEAKER_00: I believe in the Gospel of Thomas,
• 0:07
  SPEAKER_00: where he says something like,
• 0:10
  SPEAKER_00: if you bring forth what is within you,
• 0:13
  SPEAKER_00: then what is within you will save you.
• 0:17
  SPEAKER_00: If you do not bring forth what is within you,
• 0:22
  SPEAKER_00: then what is within you will destroy you from within.
• 0:27
  And this strikes to the heart of what I see countless men
• 0:33
  struggling with in our present time.
• 0:37
  SPEAKER_00: They have not been shown how to truly and honestly, for real,
• 0:44
  turn themselves inside out and bring their heart and soul into
• 0:48
  this world to
• 0:50
  SPEAKER_00: penetrate this world with their love,
• 0:53
  SPEAKER_00: with their heart and soul,
• 0:54
  SPEAKER_00: with their creativity,
• 0:56
  SPEAKER_00: with new high integrity projects,
• 1:00
  SPEAKER_00: conscious businesses,
• 1:02
  SPEAKER_00: communities,
• 1:02
  SPEAKER_00: possibilities,
• 1:04
  SPEAKER_00: the masculine in its fullness with its solar penetrative power to,
• 1:10
  SPEAKER_00: seeds,
• 1:11
  SPEAKER_00: new projects,
• 1:13
  SPEAKER_00: new possibilities,
• 1:14
  SPEAKER_00: new offspring,
• 1:16
  SPEAKER_00: new organizations,
• 1:17
  SPEAKER_00: new structures,
• 1:18
  SPEAKER_00: new architectures,
• 1:20
  SPEAKER_00: new networks.
• 1:22
  SPEAKER_00: This is what the virile, fertile masculine naturally does.
• 1:29
  SPEAKER_00: And so many men in our age have been
• 1:34
  cut off from their their sacred masculinity from their
• 1:38
  honorable masculinity we've
• 1:42
  been taught to demonize masculinity and so we've allowed
• 1:48
  ourselves in many cases to
• 1:49
  become soft flaccid ineffectual overly effeminate men and no
• 1:59
  disrespect to anyone
• 2:00
  SPEAKER_00: no judgment to anyone be as you are
• 2:04
  yet realize that we all have feminine and masculine capacities
• 2:10
  within us and that a
• 2:12
  SPEAKER_00: whole being,
• 2:13
  a well-rounded being will have access to the full spectrum of
• 2:20
  those capacities.
• 2:21
  It's great as a man to know how to feel your feelings and be
• 2:25
  soft and go with the
• 2:26
  SPEAKER_00: flow and write poems and express.
• 2:30
  SPEAKER_00: That is unbelievably healing and valuable as a man.
• 2:35
  But as a man as well in this world,
• 2:38
  you need to know how to be on a mission.
• 2:42
  SPEAKER_00: You need to know how to be accountable,
• 2:44
  SPEAKER_00: to be disciplined,
• 2:45
  SPEAKER_00: to be upright,
• 2:47
  SPEAKER_00: to be penetrating,
• 2:48
  SPEAKER_00: to be assertive,
• 2:50
  SPEAKER_00: to speak your truth,
• 2:51
  SPEAKER_00: to build,
• 2:52
  SPEAKER_00: to create structure for yourself,
• 2:54
  SPEAKER_00: to be an ordering principle,
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_00: to speak in front of people,
• 3:00
  SPEAKER_00: to sing in front of people,
• 3:02
  SPEAKER_00: to be a father.
• 3:04
  SPEAKER_00: Be a protector, be a guardian, be a husband, lead teams.
• 3:11
  This is what your innate masculine capacity within you,
• 3:16
  brothers,
• 3:17
  wants to do.
• 3:18
  It wants to bring forth what is within you and without your
• 3:24
  masculinity,
• 3:24
  without your
• 3:26
  SPEAKER_00: primordial potency as a man,
• 3:30
  SPEAKER_00: you will not be able to bring forth what is within you,
• 3:35
  SPEAKER_00: penetrate the world with that sacred potency,
• 3:39
  SPEAKER_00: with that God-led creativity,
• 3:43
  SPEAKER_00: and bring forth your true legacy of service,
• 3:47
  SPEAKER_00: of impact,
• 3:48
  SPEAKER_00: of possibility on this earth.
• 3:52
  SPEAKER_00: And that is why that is one of the
• 3:56
  most central reasons on a laundry list of reasons why every man
• 4:02
  on this earth would
• 4:03
  SPEAKER_00: greatly benefit from a truly good men's circle.
• 4:11
  SPEAKER_00: And ideally,
• 4:11
  SPEAKER_00: not just a men's circle,
• 4:13
  not just a place where men witness each other opening up about
• 4:17
  their feelings,
• 4:17
  SPEAKER_00: that's beautiful.
• 4:19
  But taking it further,
• 4:21
  we need not only men's circles,
• 4:22
  we need men's training grounds.
• 4:24
  We need leadership training grounds where men can encounter men
• 4:32
  who they respect,
• 4:33
  men who are
• 4:35
  embodying their power men who are on a mission men who will
• 4:39
  call them forward will
• 4:41
  call them out if need be will lovingly challenge them will
• 4:44
  illuminate the blind
• 4:46
  spots that they can't see will hold up the mirror men need
• 4:51
  spaces rooted in
• 4:53
  unconditional love trust and safety where they can find
• 4:58
  sparring partners loving
• 5:00
  SPEAKER_00: sparring partners who will compassionately confront them
• 5:05
  and call them out on the blind spot they haven't seen for 20
• 5:08
  years that's been
• 5:10
  SPEAKER_00: hamstringing their entire expression and actualization.
• 5:15
  SPEAKER_00: A single blind spot
• 5:17
  SPEAKER_00: that you hadn't noticed can change everything.
• 5:20
  SPEAKER_00: And this is the type of work that we do in Council of Kings.
• 5:26
  This is the type of work that we do in the men's leadership
• 5:30
  organization that I founded in 2022.
• 5:34
  SPEAKER_00: I've now sat in 500 men's circles.
• 5:38
  SPEAKER_00: I've led about 350 of those.
• 5:41
  SPEAKER_00: Why did I do that?
• 5:42
  SPEAKER_00: Because men's work is one of the most inspiring, galvanizing,
• 5:47
  SPEAKER_00: activating forces for men that I've ever discovered in my life.
• 5:53
  SPEAKER_00: The simple exposure,
• 5:58
  SPEAKER_00: the osmosis of being in the field with men you truly respect,
• 6:04
  SPEAKER_00: feeling those men,
• 6:06
  SPEAKER_00: feeling their embodied presence in sacred space with you,
• 6:11
  SPEAKER_00: you start to absorb their qualities.
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_00: We become the average person
• 6:17
  of the people we spend the most time with and simply being in
• 6:21
  those spaces,
• 6:23
  SPEAKER_00: training with other men,
• 6:26
  SPEAKER_00: sparring with other men,
• 6:28
  absorbing by osmosis with other men and exploring the full
• 6:35
  spectrum of life,
• 6:36
  SPEAKER_00: being called forward in your relationship,
• 6:40
  SPEAKER_00: in your marriage,
• 6:41
  SPEAKER_00: as a father,
• 6:42
  SPEAKER_00: as a business leader,
• 6:44
  SPEAKER_00: as a career leader,
• 6:46
  SPEAKER_00: driven leader,
• 6:47
  SPEAKER_00: a purpose-driven leader,
• 6:48
  SPEAKER_00: as a wealth builder,
• 6:51
  SPEAKER_00: as a financial,
• 6:53
  SPEAKER_00: competent,
• 6:54
  SPEAKER_00: responsible man,
• 6:56
  SPEAKER_00: as a man of God,
• 6:57
  SPEAKER_00: as a spiritual man,
• 6:59
  SPEAKER_00: as a practical man.
• 7:02
  SPEAKER_00: Men's work at its best,
• 7:03
  the way that we explore it within Council of Kings is a
• 7:08
  holistic development system
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_00: for your entire life,
• 7:13
  SPEAKER_00: a holistic training ground where you train people
• 7:16
  SPEAKER_00: everything.
• 7:17
  You train all areas of life and there's no area of life that
• 7:20
  you cannot bring into
• 7:23
  SPEAKER_00: the space,
• 7:26
  SPEAKER_00: make commitments around,
• 7:27
  SPEAKER_00: be held accountable,
• 7:29
  SPEAKER_00: receive direct feedback on.
• 7:31
  So in that sense,
• 7:34
  men's work is not limited to being a one-dimensional
• 7:39
  environment.
• 7:40
  solution to a one-dimensional problem like so many modalities
• 7:45
  and offerings out
• 7:46
  SPEAKER_00: there present themselves to be.
• 7:48
  That might be great if you have a very specific problem you
• 7:52
  want to solve,
• 7:54
  but men's work...
• 7:56
  is more holistic you can develop yourself you can evolve along
• 8:00
  many dimensions many
• 8:02
  axes alongside men who are committed to their own evolution who
• 8:06
  are committed to
• 8:07
  truth wisdom heart devotion and god-led men's work god-led
• 8:16
  training of leaders
• 8:19
  among men is the thing that can truly go to the root because
• 8:24
  when you really
• 8:26
  When you really get down to it,
• 8:28
  brother,
• 8:29
  the central thing that men are missing today is God.
• 8:33
  They're missing the direct connection through their heart of
• 8:36
  hearts to infinite
• 8:38
  SPEAKER_00: love and infinite grace that inspires them,
• 8:41
  SPEAKER_00: that brings them to their knees weeping,
• 8:43
  SPEAKER_00: that compels them to show up in service forever.
• 8:49
  SPEAKER_00: to this earth.
• 8:50
  They're missing that direct connection to a blazing inferno of
• 8:54
  love beyond all
• 8:55
  SPEAKER_00: reckoning,
• 8:56
  SPEAKER_00: beyond all fathoming.
• 8:57
  SPEAKER_00: And it is that love,
• 8:59
  SPEAKER_00: it's being plugged into that love through prayers with your brothers,
• 9:04
  SPEAKER_00: meditations with your brothers,
• 9:05
  through cultivating a sacred space of unconditional love and
• 9:10
  making every session a
• 9:12
  SPEAKER_00: ceremony.
• 9:13
  SPEAKER_00: That is the deepest capacity of
• 9:17
  SPEAKER_00: That men's work has to plug men into what their hearts truly long for.
• 9:22
  SPEAKER_00: That infinite love,
• 9:23
  infinite grace that they long to give their lives over to on
• 9:27
  the deepest level.
• 9:28
  SPEAKER_00: That is the true solution brothers.
• 9:30
  That's the meta solution individually and that is the
• 9:33
  collective solution to our
• 9:35
  SPEAKER_00: issues as a species.
• 9:37
  SPEAKER_00: We will not see peace on this planet.
• 9:40
  SPEAKER_00: until we collectively give our lives over to love,
• 9:44
  SPEAKER_00: to a transcendent and imminent,
• 9:46
  SPEAKER_00: universal,
• 9:47
  SPEAKER_00: unconditional love beyond all fathoming,
• 9:50
  SPEAKER_00: beyond all categories,
• 9:51
  SPEAKER_00: beyond all labels and identities,
• 9:53
  SPEAKER_00: until we discover that love for ourselves in our heart of hearts,
• 9:57
  mankind will continue roundhouse kicking itself in the face for
• 10:02
  millennia on end.
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_00: So if you want to truly become part
• 10:06
  the solution to that you need to realize that love for yourself
• 10:10
  you need to go on a
• 10:11
  deep quest for truth ask yourself who the heck am I truly who
• 10:19
  am I what is life
• 10:22
  SPEAKER_00: look at these questions with total honesty for
• 10:25
  SPEAKER_00: years on end, leave no stone unturned and go on a real quest for truth.
• 10:31
  SPEAKER_00: And I humbly suggest to you that where that leads is to God,
• 10:35
  SPEAKER_00: is to a love beyond all fathoming that's present here right now,
• 10:39
  SPEAKER_00: that's omnipresent and all pervading.
• 10:43
  SPEAKER_00: And that love is what truly guides us home.
• 10:49
  SPEAKER_00: And at the same time,
• 10:50
  There are also countless other capacities and virtues and
• 10:53
  values as a man that are
• 10:56
  SPEAKER_00: worth training,
• 10:57
  SPEAKER_00: that are worth developing in this world,
• 10:59
  SPEAKER_00: that simply make you a better man.
• 11:02
  SPEAKER_00: And that is the work that we do within Council of Kings,
• 11:07
  SPEAKER_00: within the men's leadership organization that I founded in 2022.
• 11:14

• 11:46
