ManKind Podcast
The OLD mold of manhood is on its way out, leaving men feeling stuck in an outdated way of being. The ManKind Podcast gives men tools to break through these molds and show them a new way to embrace their manhood. We talk with mission-driven authors, leaders, and change-makers to share tools and insights to help you build your self and find a clear direction in life. So if you’re feeling stuck, confused about what’s next, or looking for a dose of clarity and hope in your day, stick around, and you may just come away with a better idea of the kind of man, and human being, you want to become.

113 - Harnessing the Secrets of YES and NO to Understand Anger and Trauma with Stefan Charidge
Today I'm talking with Stefan Charidge, a New Warrior Brother, a psychotherapist and trainer, as he enlightens us about the intriguing Penny Model, Gestalt Theory, and the four core emotions: joy, fear, sadness, and anger.
Stefan takes us on a journey through his transition from a baker to a therapist, revealing how he has cultivated his unique approach over the years. We talk about Gestalt Theory and its interruptions, which Stefan believes are all fear-based. We delve into the world of emotions and explore how shame can only be experienced when supported by one of the four core emotions.
Discover the power of saying yes and no with Stefan's Penny Model. Learn how saying yes to something we want to say no to, and vice versa, can lead to fatigue, suppression, and even depression. Stefan breaks down the three main options when we are depressed and provides an insightful look at how addiction and self-harm are often dysfunctional attempts to process trauma. Moreover, we take a deep look into how childhood traumas can be held at a cellular level and accumulate, creating emotional burdens.
Finally, Stefan takes us through the importance of expressing our emotions and setting boundaries, and how taking action with our emotions can help reduce their intensity.
We wrap up our conversation exploring the idea of self-authorship and how life happens for us, not to us, if we take control and become the authors of our own stories. You wouldn't want to miss this enlightening conversation with Stefan Cheridge, where we unravel the mysteries of the human emotional landscape.
