Brandon takes us through the critical components of masculine shadow work and the transformation that awaits men who undertake this healing journey. We explore the seven core shadow aspects that block men from their authentic power and the specific wounds that create these patterns.

• Shadow is defined as unconscious aspects of personality that the ego doesn't identify with
• The seven core masculine shadow aspects include dominance/control, emotional repression, and fear of the feminine
• Most men carry deep shame and inadequacy as a primary shadow aspect
• Projection, overreaction, and judgment are common expressions of unintegrated shadow
• The father wound and lack of proper initiation rituals leave many men in perpetual "boy energy"
• Healing involves five key steps: awareness, feeling emotions, reparenting, integration, and reestablishing healthy relationship with the feminine
• Nervous system regulation is essential for shadow integration
• True masculine power comes from regulated presence rather than domination
• Integration creates space for creative energy, connection, and thriving instead of merely surviving
• Most annoying habits between partners often reflect deeper patterns needing attention
