EP 49 - How Men and Women Communicate AND My Human Design - with Jason Matthews
My guest today blew my mind at many points in this interview, and I look forward to you hearing these moments. Jason Matthews is here to talk about two topics: The first part of our discussion is around men and women and how we interact with each other and our peers. Jason and I discuss a few areas, such as distrust and competition of needs. The second part of our discussion is around Human Design and what it means, and then we discuss some of the results of my Human Design reading I had with Jason earlier this year. It is fascinating what he told me. So many moments helped me understand exactly why certain things have been more difficult for me, and I know you will relate to this topic for sure! Here are three reasons why you should listen to the complete Episode: Learn about the differences in how men and women interact. Jason provides valuable insights on the three steps of effective communication. Discover the four behavioral types in Human Design. Episode Highlights Who is Jason Matthews Jason has spent the last 20 years studying human behavior, human interaction, emotional trauma, and the different ways that men and women interact with themselves, with each other, and their peers. As an emotion investigator, Jason's job is to teach his clients how to solve the mystery of interpersonal interaction by understanding two elements of communication: understanding and alignment. He offers guidance on how unlocking your compassionate power can help you create the life you imagined for yourself and get you the opportunities you want most. Compassionate power Jason has found that there is a severe lack of the ability for men and women to express themselves adequately in today's society. It's because of one thing that they're not allowing themselves to do, which is to feel compassion. Compassion is the desire to be seen as friendly, approachable and trustworthy, and both men and women want to do this. Masculine and feminine energy Masculine energy embodies competence, the ability to be seen as capable, reliable, powerful, and action-oriented. Feminine energy embodies compassion, the ability to be seen as friendly, approachable, trustworthy, and development-oriented. Masculine and feminine energies don't have a gender; men can express feminine energy, and women can express masculine energy. Toxic masculinity in men Men have been conditioned to be seen as powerful, capable and reliable. They're self-conscious about how masculine they need to appear, and this alienates them from others, often coming across as narcissistic and egotistical. While men naturally embody competence, it's also essential to understand how they can be compassionate, especially in the way they connect with others. Toxic competence in women Women are naturally predisposed to being compassionate, to love, develop and nurture. When you take away the belief that compassion is good, you strip away what makes a woman. What's left is the drive to show they're competent, capable, reliable and powerful. Women, however, can show competence by showing they can develop others and be a source of comfort. Manifesting the best version of yourself Each gender needs to be permitted to act in a way where they can express themselves fully and play to their strengths. For men, their sole purpose is to act, and the action of acting makes it possible for them to create a space for women or that feminine energy to express themselves fully. Competition of needs Each party focuses on its own needs, and compassion is lost. When focusing on a job that needs to be done, you're left competing with one another. Instead, focus on what each has to offer to accomplish a goal by working together. Focusing on your orientation Men are action-orientated and women are action-minded; women are development-orientated and men are development-minded. What you're orientated towards, you're naturally going to excel. It's best to recognize your talents and act in that way, providing
