How to WORK on Yourself

Empowered AF 2.0 - Episode 119: "How to WORK on Yourself"


In this episode, Mark breaks down what it really means for men to do the “work” on themselves, especially in the context of divorce, separation, and personal growth. Mark emphasizes that true self-improvement is about more than just reading books or watching videos—it's about embracing vulnerability and doing the uncomfortable things that lead to real transformation. He discusses the importance of setting boundaries, avoiding codependency, and seeing painful experiences like separation as opportunities for growth.

Highlights:

  • Defining the Work: Mark highlights the difference between passive learning and actively doing the hard work to improve oneself.
  • Dealing with Divorce/Separation: Mark advises men going through separation on how to focus inward and take ownership of their growth.
  • Setting Boundaries: The importance of maintaining healthy boundaries and avoiding codependent relationships during difficult times.
  • Personal Transformation: Viewing separation as a chance to rebuild and create a better future, even when it's painful in the moment.
  • Recap and Action Steps: Mark wraps up with actionable steps for continuing the journey of personal growth.
