Mind Over Masculinity

Is Leadership Really a Mindset—and Not a Mask? | Dr. Dorothy Martin-Neville

On Mind Over Masculinity, host Yusuf and Dr. Dorothy Martin-Neville cut through the noise on men’s mental health and leadership. We get tactical about the difference between hypervigilance vs. mindfulness, why emotional intelligence beats pure strategy when life hits, and how to run hard conversations without posturing. Expect practical frameworks on self-trust, nervous-system regulation, vision sharing, team alignment, and ditching the myth that a leader must have all the answers. This episode is a straight talk playbook for founders, fathers, and operators who are done with survival mode and ready to lead with presence.
 
About the guest  :
Dr. Dorothy Martin-Neville is an executive advisor, psychotherapist, and pioneer in mind-body leadership. A five-time founder, she coaches high-stakes leaders to integrate humanity, clarity, and courage into how they build teams and make calls under pressure.
 
Key takeaways:
Presence > hypervigilance: Hypervigilance lives in the head and narrows vision; mindfulness steps back to see flow, synchronicity, and context across multiple levels.
Humans run companies: Strategy fails without psychological safety and attunement—leaders must clock what’s humanly happening in the room.
Regulate, then decide: A regulated nervous system enables clarity, creativity, and ethical action under uncertainty.
Vision creates alignment: Share the why and who you serve so the company’s mission becomes a shared operating system, not a poster.
Hard talks require an open heart and a firm spine: Prepare in silence; be compassionate and clear on fit, values, and team cohesion.
Drop the control myth: Leadership isn’t omniscience—it’s learning in motion, delegating scope, and scaling people, not just roles.
Identity evolves: Every life stage trains the next; self-trust is built by noticing you’ve always found a way forward.
Replace burden with joy: Responsibilities don’t have to be a weight; intention and integrity move leaders from survival to sustainable performance.

Is “Leadership From Within” the Antidote to Burnout for High-Performing Men? with Greg Woodard

On Mind Over Masculinity, Avik drills into a no-nonsense framework with Dr. Greg Woodard—Navy veteran, chaplain, leadership coach, and author of Leadership From Within: Navigating the Path Toward Soul-Driven Success. Greg unpacks four sustaining rhythms—spiritual, emotional, relational, physical—that keep leaders effective without imploding behind closed doors. We get into early burnout signals (fatigue, medicating stress, dramatizing minor issues), why authenticity beats performance, and how emotionally literate men lead better at home and at work. If you’re “winning” publicly but exhausted privately, this episode gives you a practical operating system to realign purpose, presence, and output—across boardrooms, ships, and family rooms.
 
About the Guest  
Dr. Greg Woodard served 22 years in the U.S. military, 15 as a Navy chaplain, then transitioned to spiritual direction and leadership coaching. His work centers on sustainable, conviction-based leadership for faith-driven professionals. Author of Leadership From Within.
 
Key Takeaways:
Spot the gap: Leading for popularity or performance—rather than conviction—creates misalignment and burnout.
Four rhythms: Build daily spiritual, emotional, relational, and physical practices; sustainability is a habit stack, not a weekend reset.
Early warning signs: Persistent fatigue, dread on waking, dramatizing small issues, strained family dynamics, or self-medicating to cope.
Emotions ≠ weakness: Men who acknowledge and process feelings (journaling, therapy, coaching, spiritual direction) lead with clarity instead of reactivity.
Model rest: Sleep and recovery are strategic assets; decision quality craters without them.
Attachment echoes: Old relational patterns shape leadership; secure connection improves influence and culture.
Name it, then fix it: Admit the private crash, make amends where needed, and implement concrete changes—not just words.
Purpose over posturing: Whole-self alignment beats charisma; presence scales better than pressure.

Courage, Control, and Psychological Safety on Submarines and in Life with Commander William C. Spears

On Mind Over Masculinity, host Avik speaks with Commander William C. Spears—submarine warfare officer, former Executive Officer of a ballistic-missile submarine, and Pentagon leader—about Stoicism as a Warrior Philosophy. We unpack courage versus surrender, how to stay steady under stress, building psychological safety in high-performance teams, and why journaling clarifies thinking. Spears explains Epictetus’ role ethics, coherence between our roles (parent, professional, citizen), and the discipline of acting “cool as a cucumber” in the moment—and processing emotions appropriately later. This is a direct playbook for making ethical decisions when no one’s watching, at sea or at work.
Note: As stated in the episode, Commander Spears speaks solely in his personal capacity. His views do not represent the U.S. Government or the U.S. Navy.
About the guest  :
Commander William C. Spears is a U.S. Navy submarine warfare officer and leadership writer. His book, Stoicism as a Warrior Philosophy, translates ancient Stoic ethics for modern warfighters and leaders, focusing on prudence, courage, justice, and moderation under real-world pressure.
Key takeaways:
Courage = prudence in what must be endured. Recklessness isn’t courage; wise endurance is.
Surrender to reality, not responsibility. Control judgments and actions; accept what’s outside your control.
Psychological safety increases performance. Professional, decent day-to-day interactions reduce cognitive load under stress.
“Act now, feel later (appropriately).” In critical moments (a watch, a high-stakes meeting), stay composed; process emotions at the right time and place.
Coherence across roles. Be a good human first; other roles (officer, parent, leader) should align with that higher role.
Discipline prevents spiral. On deployment (or in any constraint), focus on the job at hand to avoid rumination and loss of control.
Standards and kindness aren’t opposites. Professional consistency plus human decency builds trust and team power; hardness is situational, never habitual.
Journaling is strategic hygiene. Writing exposes fuzzy “feelings-as-thoughts,” sharpens judgment, and accelerates learning.
Daily debrief works. Ask: What was in my control? What did I choose? What did I learn? Who did I become?
Leaders model language. Words matter; avoid cruelty, signal dignity, and enforce safety non-negotiables.

Men’s Mental Health at Work & in Education: Purpose, Burnout, and Action with Michael Black

On Mind Over Masculinity, host Avik Chakraborty talks with Michael Black—Founder & CEO of Success Tutoring and author of Millionaire Tutor—about men’s mental health under corporate and education pressure. We dig into burnout vs. alignment, stress from inaction, building purpose-driven careers, and how franchise models can de-risk a transition out of a draining 9-to-5. Clear, practical strategies. No fluff.
About the guest  
Michael Black is the founder and CEO of Success Tutoring, one of Australia’s fastest-growing education franchises, and the best-selling author of Millionaire Tutor: Escape your soul-crushing 9-to-5 by building an outrageously profitable tutoring business. He launched his first tutoring center at 17 and now leads global expansion across Australia, New Zealand, the U.S., and India.
Key takeaways:
Stress often stems from inaction—when goals and daily actions don’t match. Close that gap first.
Exercise remains a reliable reset: shift your focus, regulate mood, return clearer.
Treat life like a song: expect highs and lows; don’t “skip to the end.”
Build alignment between work and inner purpose to reduce burnout; misalignment accelerates it.
You can’t “prepare” for failure; you fail, learn, adjust. Keep risks non-fatal and measured.
For some, a franchise model meaningfully de-risks entrepreneurship vs. starting from zero.
Purpose sustains mental health; many men derive purpose from meaningful work—avoid the “empty retirement” trap.
Fulfillment is a choice; short-term wins won’t fill long-term voids—cultivate love, faith, and service.
Lead teams by watching for misalignment and fatigue patterns, not just output.
Freedom from a draining 9-to-5 is realistic with a structured path, disciplined action, and support.

Father-First Leadership, Emotional Intelligence & Resilience for Men with Joshua Delp

On Mind Over Masculinity, host Avik Chakraborty talks with Joshua Delp—faith-driven leader, pastor, and leadership strategist—about how men can build real resilience, practice appropriate vulnerability, and lead with emotional intelligence without losing their edge. Joshua breaks down EI as the language of leadership, shares how he moved from early-life trauma to purpose-led action, and explains why self-awareness, self-management, and honest acknowledgment are non-negotiable for modern male leaders. This direct, practical conversation is tailor-made for YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn audiences interested in men’s mental health, character development, faith-aligned leadership, and high-performance habits that last.
 
About the Guest  :
Joshua Delp is a leadership strategist and pastor who equips men and organizations through Rising Leadership and Rising Men. His work centers on clarity, emotional intelligence, and values-driven action so leaders get results through people, not despite them.
 
Key Takeaways:
Emotional Intelligence = leadership language. Technical skill gets you promoted; EI keeps you effective by winning trust, reading context, and guiding teams.
Start with self-awareness. Name your patterns (anger, avoidance, passivity) and practice self-management so your responses match your values.
Resilience is a decision. Move from victimhood to agency: counseling, exposure to discomfort (public speaking, social risk), and roles that force growth.
Appropriate vulnerability, not oversharing. Leaders acknowledge reality (“this market is tough”) without collapsing; time, place, and audience matter.
Belonging fuels bravery. A tight circle of trusted relationships reduces shame and makes courageous action sustainable.
Faith-aligned integrity. Don’t trade your soul for metrics; pursue purpose, character, and long-term health alongside performance.
Men and emotions. Emotions aren’t weakness; poor emotional stewardship is. Build vocabulary, express cleanly, and avoid default reactivity.
From pain to purpose. Early adversity can become a growth engine when paired with support, structure, and service to others.

On this Mind Over Masculinity episode, host Yusuf sits down with Rachel Lundberg—former classical ballet dancer, chronic-illness survivor, and founder of YogaOAK University—to reframe yoga for men. We dig into alignment-based, InBodyWise practices that connect brain, body, and heart; a simple ABC method to move from reactivity to choice; and how community, vulnerability, and micro-transitions build long-term resilience. If you’ve written yoga off as “just stretching,” this direct conversation shows how breath, awareness, and alignment can become practical tools for stress, relationships, and leadership.
About the guest  :
Rachel Lundberg is the creator of InBodyWise Yoga and runs YogaOAK University. A former ballet dancer and studio owner, she guides students to integrate brain, body, and heart through alignment-based practices that support emotional regulation and authentic living.
Key takeaways:
Yoga is more than poses: it’s a framework for living in alignment—useful for stress, relationships, and leadership.
Men benefit from the physicality and community of yoga classes; start with a friend and drop the need to “do it perfectly.”
InBodyWise approach: understand how the brain patterns the nervous system, then use movement and heart-based awareness to rewire responses.
The ABC tool: Awareness of what you feel; Breathe (slow, steady breaths, hand to heart helps); then Choose a response.
Honor daily transitions (doorway, car, end of work) to shift state—arrive calm, present, and less reactive.
Courage ≠ force. Often it’s simply pausing, breathing, and showing up.
Community + truth: find safe spaces to speak honestly, stay in integrity, and practice vulnerability without shame.
Consistency beats intensity: small, repeatable practices grow capacity and resilience over time.
For beginners: expect female-majority classes in the West; that’s changing—your presence helps normalize men in the room.
Not just asana: explore breathwork, meditation, and philosophy if classes feel intimidating at first.

How Fathers Can Build Confident Writing Skills in Dyslexic Kids (The 10-Minute Sentence Builder Method) with Russell Van Brocklen

On this episode of Mind Over Masculinity, host Avik Chakraborty talks with dyslexia mentor Russell Van Brocklen about a practical, research-aligned way fathers can raise their child’s reading and writing levels at home—without tutors or pricey programs. Russell breaks down his Sentence Builder Approach (word analysis → articulation) that leverages how the dyslexic brain works, shows dads how to coach in 10 focused minutes at the kitchen table, and explains why narrowing to a child’s speciality area accelerates progress. We cover dyslexia, ADHD, Orton-Gillingham vs. modern methods, motivation, and confidence—so boys stop internalizing failure and start seeing themselves as capable thinkers.
About the guest  :
Russell Van Brocklen (DyslexiaClasses.com) is a dyslexic educator who has designed writing interventions funded by the New York State Senate. His programs have helped students jump multiple grade levels in one school year by shifting instruction to the brain processes dyslexic learners naturally use.
Key takeaways:
Use the brain’s strengths. Dyslexic learners benefit when writing starts with word analysis and is immediately followed by articulation (“because…” reasons) to engage executive processing.
Start with a three-word sentence. Personalize it (e.g., “Sarah likes swimming”), then extend with “because…” to build longer, meaningful sentences.
Copy → type → independent. Move from copying the correct sentence, to re-typing it 3–13 times to eliminate errors, to producing it independently. This repetition drives accuracy and confidence.
Coach for 10 minutes, five nights a week. Short, consistent reps beat marathon sessions, especially for grade-school boys with dyslexia or ADHD.
Track progress in writing to lift reading. If a learner can write a word correctly, they can usually read it; writing growth often leads reading by 1–1.5 grade levels.
Teach from specific to general. Ask focused, concrete questions first; let broader understanding emerge from the answers.
Motivation comes from “speciality.” Anchor practice in the child’s deepest interest (sports, animals, chemistry, etc.) to unlock laser focus and reduce resistance.
Dads set the tone. Swap “correction” for curiosity. Your presence and belief become the blueprint for your child’s self-story.
Results scale with age. Older kids often adopt the process faster; the framework works across elementary to high school.
Keep grammar simple. Fix only major errors early; prioritize clear ideas, structure, and accurate spelling first.

Leadership Burnout, Mindset & the Practice of Pause — with Vince Perri

On Mind Over Masculinity, host Avik Chakraborty and entrepreneur Vince Perri (Commercial Claims Advocate; Elite Resolutions) get blunt about the hidden cost of achievement—anxiety, depression, fear, and constant pressure to be “the rock.” Vince shares the breaking point that pushed him to therapy, the mindset-first playbook he adopted (meditation, manifestation, and coaching), and the simple operator rule that prevents relapse: practice the pause. If you’re scaling a company while quietly burning out, this conversation cuts through the noise and gives you direct, workable shifts you can implement today.
 
About the guest :
Vince Perri is a multi-company founder and the creator of Commercial Claims Advocate, as well as founder of Elite Resolutions. Beyond revenue milestones and exits, Vince is known for straightforward conversations about mental health, sustainable leadership, and mindset training for high performers.
 
Key takeaways:
The real toll of success: Behind wins sit anxiety, depression, fear of failure/success, and financial pressure tied to team livelihoods.
Awareness over autopilot: Entrepreneurs don’t always need to be “doing.” Complete must-do tasks, then pause; recovery is strategic, not indulgent.
Therapy works: Weekly therapy helped Vince surface childhood patterns driving worry and fear, building emotional capacity for leadership.
Mindset is the lever: Top performers often win through mindset, not just tactics. Meditation + manifestation + clear intentions compound results.
Energy management: Elevate emotional state (gratitude, confidence, joy) to change outcomes; your energy influences rooms, deals, and teams.
Gap vs. Gain (Dan Sullivan): Stop staring at the moving horizon of goals (the Gap). Anchor in how far you’ve already come (the Gain) to reduce despair.
Delegate to de-burnout: Track tasks for 3–5 days; keep energizing work and delegate draining work (ops/admin) as soon as possible.
Self-permission: Give yourself grace on off-days. Sustainable consistency beats rigid perfection.
Tactical ritual: Meditations that scan “energy centers” and raise emotion can create momentum; pair with goal reviews and coaching for structure.

Tiny Neck Adjustments, Big Wins for Sleep, Headaches & Focus with Dr. Ray Drury

Upper cervical care sounds small, but its impact on your nervous system can be big. In this straight-talk episode of Mind Over Masculinity, Avik digs into how precise alignment at the top of the spine may influence headaches, sleep quality, stress response, and mental clarity. Dr. Ray Drury explains a simple mirror self-check for postural asymmetry, why brainstem signaling matters, and how to coordinate structural care alongside therapy, breathwork, and training. If you’re a founder, leader, or dad normalizing daily pain, this is a practical primer on listening to your body and acting on measurable signals—without the grind mindset.
About the guest  :
Dr. Ray Drury is a chiropractor specializing in upper cervical care, focusing on gentle, targeted adjustments intended to restore brain–body communication and support recovery from chronic symptoms.
Key takeaways:
Upper cervical alignment can influence the brainstem’s communication with the body; disrupted signaling may show up as headaches, poor sleep, brain fog, or tension.
Try this at-home mirror check: eyes closed → slowly turn head right/left → return to what feels like center → open eyes and look for uneven earlobes/shoulders or a nose subtly rotated. Visible asymmetry can be a prompt to seek a professional evaluation.
Early changes people often track after targeted care: fewer or lighter headaches, improved neck/back range of motion, and better sleep; longer-term tracking includes energy, digestion, mood steadiness, and resilience.
Burning out isn’t a badge of honor. Pair structural work with therapy, breathwork, sleep hygiene, and strength training to rebalance sympathetic/parasympathetic tone.
If you’re already in therapy for anxiety or irritability, coordinate care: share goals and progress measures (sleep hours, headache frequency, HRV, reaction time) across providers.
Action list: get evaluated, track sleep and symptoms weekly, adjust workstation/posture, and book the appointment you’ve delayed. This is about presence and clarity, not martyrdom.
