3 things that happened

once I stopped dating my mother

Hey man,

Just wrapped a powerful group call with my students—and the breakthroughs were next level.

There’s nothing like seeing men finally let go of shame, reclaim their desire, and walk away lighter.
I love this work.

I’ve got just a few minutes before my date tonight, so let’s dive straight into something real:

🧠 Your Relationship with Women Starts With One Person:

Your mother.

She’s your first love.
Your first mirror of approval.
And—without even realizing it—your first source of shame.

When I stopped unconsciously “dating” my mother (yep, we’re going there), everything changed.

Let me show you how this played out for me:

1. My Relationship to Porn

I used to feel ashamed about watching it.
You know the feeling—five quick minutes before your mom pulls up in the driveway? That tight, rushed, anxious energy?

I stopped watching for a long time—not because I healed it, but because I thought it was “bad.”

But after doing real inner work around desire and mother dynamics, I revisited it from a clearer place.

Now? I’ve let it go again.
But this time, not from shame… from choice.
Because real sex, real connection, and fantasies based on what I truly want feel way better than pixels ever did.

2. My Relationship to Sex

For a long time, I thought I had to “get laid” to feel like a man.

Sex became proof that I was worthy.
That I was cool.
That I mattered.

But deep down? I was just chasing the unconditional love I never fully received from my mother.

When I started giving that love to myself—
→ Sex stopped being a chase for validation
→ It became an experience of intimacy, fun, and presence

3. My Willingness to Show Desire

When I was a kid, I kissed a girl.
My mother said something—I don’t even remember what.
But I interpreted it as:
👉 “Desire is bad.”
👉 “You did something wrong.”

That stuck.

For years, I hesitated to show women I liked them.
Not because I didn’t feel it—but because some part of me feared:
“If she sees my desire, she’ll reject me. Just like mom did.”

But as I gave my own inner boy the love and approval he never got—I started feeling safe expressing attraction.

True story:
Not long ago, I approached a girl in a store… while my mother was with me.
And my mom commented on how confident I was.
Talk about a full-circle moment.

If this hits home for you, I recorded something for you.
It’s a guided meditation to help you stop unconsciously chasing your mother’s love, and start giving it to yourself.

It’s simple.
It’s powerful.
And it’s yours:

This isn’t just about mom.
It’s about you reclaiming your confidence, your sexuality, and your self-worth.

Start there, and everything else opens up.

See you soon,
