The Sacred Masculine: Stillness, Devotio...

Yasmeen Turayhi
About this episode

What does it mean to be a man in today’s world, not just competent, but conscious? Not just present, but truly accountable to life?

In this bold and intimate conversation, I sit down with Max Trombly, a powerhouse men’s coach and modern voice of masculine reclamation. We explore what real masculine leadership looks like, not as dominance or performance, but as stewardship, emotional clarity, and fierce devotion to truth, love, and legacy.

“To be a man is to steward. Anything short of that, and you're just feeding off of other people, which is essentially just a boy feeding from the existential mother.” - Max Trombly 

We talk about:

✅  Why men are afraid to be fully seen and what happens when they are

✅ The difference between boys seeking mothering and men stewarding life

✅ Triggers, trauma, and how to build emotional agility in real time

✅  Polyamory, intimacy, and the power of choosing one woman deeply

✅ The lost art of stillness — and how embodiment is the foundation of leadership

✅ What it means to create a home, not just a household

✅ Vision, vitality, and rebuilding partnership after the “primary story” ends

✅ How men heal best in the presence of other men … and how freedom comes not from avoidance, but from devotion

Whether you're partnered or single, masculine or feminine, curious or skeptical, this conversation touches the nerve of what so many people are feeling in this cultural moment: the hunger for real connection, real leadership, and real love.

🙏 If it moves you, please share it with someone who needs to hear it. ✨ And leave a review on Apple Podcasts to help this work ripple out.

Best,
