Episode 1
CD5 E1 - LEARN TO SAY NO
Kicking off Season 5 of Conscious Dominance, Eric reveals the counterintuitive first step to masculine leadership and relationship dynamics: mastering the art of saying "no" to yourself through self-discipline. Challenging conventional wisdom, he explains that before you can authentically practice conscious relationships and dominance, you must first develop unwavering self-mastery by intentionally abstaining from pleasures and distractions – the foundation of inner dominance. Eric provides tactical guidance on building this crucial skill through intentional restraint, spiritual discipline, and facing uncomfortable emotions head-on. Whether you're seeking a conscious framework to transform your relationships or simply strengthen your emotional resilience through self-control, this episode offers a provocative glimpse into how true dominance begins with the power of no and personal growth.
About Conscious Dominance
The Conscious Dominance podcast was born from weekly conversations between two friends, Andrew & Eric.
Every week, we would connect and talk about the ways that our roles as Dominants in long term, loving Dominant/submissive relationships were calling us to higher integrity, and demanding the absolute best from each of us as men. And in those conversations, we realized how much other men might benefit from being let in on these conversations. So we started recording them for you.
