<p>There&#39;s a pattern Coach Kevin Voisin keeps running into with his highest-performing clients: guys who can build a hundred-million-dollar business without blinking, then go home and have no idea how to navigate a conversation with their wife. The gap between those two skill sets, he says, comes down to the male ego, the same mental tool that sharpens ambition and decision-making early in life, but which, left unexamined, quietly hardens into a kind of prison most successful men don&#39;t even know they&#39;re living inside.</p><p>On this episode of the Men&#39;s Therapy Podcast, Marc Azoulay sits down with Kevin Voisin, who coaches high-performing men and executives through his Live Legend system. He&#39;s spoken on five continents about helping driven men get out of their own way, and he&#39;s currently building an app to bring that work to more people at scale. The conversation ranges from psychology to biology to a few unconventional teachers along the way, a study on cuttlefish mating behaviour, a season of the Netflix survival show Alone, a story about pushing his son&#39;s shoulder instead of spanking him, but it keeps circling back to one idea: ego, in the beginning, is what lets a man become someone. Left unchecked, it&#39;s what keeps him from becoming anyone else.</p><p>Voisin breaks a man&#39;s life down into five areas: fitness, faith, family, finance, and fun and pictures each one as either an engine pushing him forward or an anchor dragging him down. Most high-achieving men, he&#39;s found, have three strong engines and two anchors quietly sitting on the bottom, and their instinct when life slows down is almost always to add more engines instead of lifting the anchor. He also argues that <em>&quot;decision velocity is greater than decision accuracy,&quot;</em> that perfectionism works like a horizon line the mind invents to help it navigate useful, but never something you can actually reach and that anger isn&#39;t an emotion men should starve into submission. It&#39;s energy that needs a healthy outlet, or it eventually finds an unhealthy one.</p><p>This isn&#39;t a takedown of ambition or a call to soften up. It&#39;s a look at why so many capable, accomplished men feel quietly stuck, and a practical map for getting the parts of their life that aren&#39;t working back in motion without blowing up the parts that are.</p><p>For more podcasts, blogs, and to get involved in the Men&#39;s Therapy Online Community, visit <a href="http://www.menstherapy.online"><u>www.menstherapy.online</u></a>.</p><p>Follow us on social media: <a href="https://mtr.bio/mens-therapy-online"><u>https://mtr.bio/mens-therapy-online</u></a>.</p>
