What if the version of you reacting today… was actually a 7-year-old boy frozen in time?

In this powerful episode of Conversations That Count, Jeihan sits down with Ryan, a specialist in helping men heal their “inner boy”, the younger version of themselves who absorbed wounds, formed limiting beliefs, and now unconsciously runs the show.

Together, they unpack the concept of rauma timestamps, capacity work, and the emotional maturity gap plaguing men in relationships, leadership, and fatherhood. This is an invitation to reclaim your wholeness.

Whether you’re a man doing the work or a woman who wants to understand the masculine more deeply, this episode offers real depth, practical language, and transformational insights.

🎯 In This Episode:

What is the “inner boy” and how does he show up in your life?
Why emotional capacity matters more than intellect
The truth about shutdown, triggers, and emotional withdrawal
Masculine archetypes: King, Warrior, and wounded son
Why healing is a pre-requisite to becoming a safe man
What women need to understand about men’s healing work

I would also add a caviat…
Being healthier connected to our HeartSoul requires feeling our feelings WITHOUT taking it out on someone else.

I wish more men knew the direction Ryan wants to point them too. Healing a boy to be a healthy man.

When any woman is doing her own balanced wholehearted authentic inner work and living her best life, upgrading as she heals …..which is lifelong process……Vulnerability is key, not outer validation.

❤We actually do much more on many levels with Becoming our own BestLoving Nurturing SelfParent. We are more capable to give our children much less dysfunction and more of what We Never Received. Ultimately, We all are becoming the role models we never had….without judgement shame or blame…previous hundreds of generations back died stuck from traumas never expressed. The healthy emotional fullfillment never got to be experience during living.
This is beautiful to work with men specifically.
Thank you❤❤

OMG 1:01 hits hard today.

It’s probably a good idea to speak more about the difference of being overly loyal when one partner is truly UNWILLING TO DO THEIR OWN INNER HEALING WORK.
ONE PARTNER, man or woman, CANNOT CARRY THE RELATIONSHIP EMOTIONALLY. No one can be the other’s parent. Unsustainable. No perfect person or relationship…yet healthy progression.

I feel like I am 12 but with grey hair and a back ache.

48:00 the disconnect is due to women working on themselves in their masculine energy. They may desire a masculine man but they lack the feminine receptivity. What he offers they're not able to receive.
