The Niall Graham Podcast (Niall Graham)

This comes from a long journey of self discovery, of trying to avoid my own toxic masculinity and deeper more fucked up parts of me, I escaped and aspired to the feminine, a place of love, connection and flow. The place I was told I should be.

But over the years I realised that I needed to deal with my own masculine for my feminine to truly come online. As far as im concerned it was the masculine that got us into this mess and it is the masculine that must get us out. This is the work of being conscious men, doing the deep work through our unconscious toxicity so we can emerge as beautiful, present men who hold the feminine with protection, sacredness and beauty.

In this weeks episode I dive deeply into anger.

Anger is a pivotal emotion to master for men. Often we have a bad relationship with anger and haven't learned the skills to navigate anger without either going into collapse to avoid anger or going into reaction where we get taken over by anger.

In this episode I dive deeply into:

- What are the ways we have developed a negative relationship with anger.

- How anger is normally protecting a vulnerable or hurt part of us.

- The 2 most common ways we handle anger, collapse and reaction.

- Learning ways to healthily express and how we can build capacity to hold anger without denying it or acting from it.

Overcoming the nice guy weekend retreat - If you are wanting to learn the skills of navigating anger in a healthier way Overcoming the nice guy is a weekend retreat where we build these skills and competencies 28th-30th March in Sligo Booking

This Episode im joined by Angie Twydall Founder of The Sanctuary of Sophia, a sacred space dedicated to offering womb and hara training, trauma-aware teachings, and transformative retreats.

• Womb/hara as our inner authority
• Awakening the energetic bodies of Men & Women
• The grail gates of the male body
• The severance between heart and womb/hara
• Its time for men to lay down our swords and embrace our sensitivity

I feel like both men and women will get so much out of this conversation.

In this episode I discuss what is the Patriarchy and unhealthy masculinity and introduce the idea that it is necessary to reclaim healthy masculinity to be able to step out of our current paradigm. I talk about how as a culture our reaction to the patriarchy led us into a state of disempowerment and how it is necessary to now do the deep work of reclaiming our healthy masculine for the sake of ourselves and our culture.

In this episode I dive into Mens relationship with our cocks and why this is such a fundamental part of our journey into manhood:

- How having a healthy relationship with our cocks is key to 'feeling' like a man

- How the disconnection from your cocks, leads to addiction to sex, porn and impacts our relationship with women.

- How developing healthy relationship with our cocks leads to healthier, happier sex lives and healthier societies for everyone.

The people pleaser is so common in modern society. 'Nice guys,' 'yes men,' but ultimately spineless and lack of balls. On the surface he is agreeable and approachable but underneath he is hiding a resentment because he knows he is not showing up as himself in the world.

In this episode I go fully into this people pleaser, I cover: 

- What is a people pleaser?

- What is his origin story? Where does he come from?

- How does being a people pleaser hold us back in life.

- Learn 3 steps you can take to move away from the people pleaser.

In this episode I share a personal story of a breakdown I had when I was 20. 

Breakdowns or mental disorders are often stigmatized and pathologised in society, which leads people to miss the gifts that these breakdowns may hold. How would it be to see breakdowns as an essential part of life?

In this podcast I go into:

• The full story of this breakdown, context and how I navigated my way through
• How a mentor helped me reframe this breakdown to see it in a different light
• How can we learn to work with breakdowns to spiral into new ways of being in the world?

Disclaimer: I am not a qualified therapist, this podcast is designed to share my story to hopefully destigmatise mental health a little. Although I navigated this time mostly on my own I would not recommend this.

If you are struggling  with a mental disorder or are a danger to yourself or others it is important to reach out to mental health organisation for support. There are many organisations who can support. 

Sacred Sons have become a very well known and International Mens movement, that are bringing in alot of new people to Mens work, they are really putting themselves out there knowing that this work needs to be seen.

This is is a short review of my experience on the weekend. How I believe the mens movement is evolving. How ritual Combat, Embodiment and Brotherhood are key pieces of masculinity that are not being addressed and that ultimately the only way out of this mess is for men to do their work together. We got our selves into this mess and I believe it is conscious men who will also get us out of this mess.

This was a transformative and Informative weekend for me. Thank you to Jason Mac, Kale, Andrew, Micheal, Peter and Jack. and all the team who made this possible.

An Introduction to my Podcast and also looking at the fundamental teachings that I offer. Looking at the relationship between the missing piece in culture of Descent and eastern concept of Hara and how they are related in this framework of finding deeper consciousness within us.

Men have gathered in communities of men for centuries. Most tribes or communities will have Mens Lodges where men gather and do sacred work.

In this podcast I dive into the necessity of men coming together. How it supports us as men and how it supports us to show up better for our women and communities. Mens work is also essential at this time when the masculine is being attacked as being domineering, patriarchal, controlling and repressing of women, it is essential for us as men to the work together to break down our own internalised patriarchy and emerge having integrated fully our healthy masculine.

In this episode I welcome on a very good friend and work colleague of mine Jenny O'Hare who is a deep ecologist living in the west of Ireland.

In this podcast we delve into this deep subject of Belonging. How it is a fundamental need in life to feel like we belong. We also look at the culture of Ireland and our relationship with this country, both the beauty of living here and also the difficulty with the history and trauma which is still viscerally present.

Jenny and I hold a retreat twice a year In Donegal where we delve into this subject and look to see how we can foster this sense of belonging with ourselves, with others and the natural world around us.
