The Mountain Top - Masculine Men Get Women

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT ===  Lately we've been talking about confidence, and rightly so. After all, it's the very prerequisite for any kind of success with women. That all starts with actually having the stones to approach and meet a woman, right? Well, in this episode I'll reveal the EXACT five-word phrase that immediately communicates confidence to women when you approach them. The real magic, however, is that it not only pr...

Co-Host Nick Shelton (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/introvert) A whole lot of guys who aren't exactly where they want to be with women are introverts by nature. But here's the deal...most of the time they aren't seeing the success they want because they either THINK introverts aren't as good with women, or they've been TOLD introverts aren't good with women. My returning guest Nick Shelton literally wrote the book on this subject,...

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === Obviously, women are attracted to confidence. But how are we supposed to be confident if we're not 'genetically gifted', or otherwise lack some of the stereotypical traits we're told over and over again that women want in a man? I mean, do we even have the right to be confident? For some of us as men, it hits our mindset so hard that we can start believing we shouldn't so much as have the audacity t...

Co-Host Young Han (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/girldad) A quick Google search will reveal tons of info on masculinity and attracting women. But fatherhood, not so much. Why don't men talk much about fatherhood, whether we have sons, daughters or both? Well, my guest is none other than the host of The Girl Dad Show, Young Han. Despite the title of both his show and this episode, we end up talking almost as much about fathering so...

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === If you've ever experienced the specific scenario I describe in this episode, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. And yes...there is a certain situation where everything you've ever been taught about 'The Rules Of Dating' go out the window. And with them, all the game playing, all the fear of looking needy or desperate, all the fake 'waiting periods', etc., etc. No more 'three second rules', ...

Co-Host Christy Kerns (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/luma) My first-time guest is Christy Kerns, who is the VP of Client Relations at high-end matchmaking firm Luma Luxury Matchmaking. Christy oversees the entire group of matchmakers over at her firm, so she has plenty of insight into how dating and relating has changed in recent months and years. My first question to her is why almost all matchmakers are women...and her answer ma...

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === Whenever most men happen to encounter a woman they'd say is a '10 out of 10', they automatically rule out any possibility of attracting her at all, let alone girlfriending her. But this Snippet From The Summit serves as a 'wake up' call to both our confidence and our logical grasp of such situations. For starters, women you consider 'tens' might not be as unattainable as you might think...for severa...

Co-Host Dr. Thomas Jordan (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/jordan) An increasingly disturbing trend is toward unabashedly transactional relationships between men and women. But what does that even mean? My returning guest is Dr. Thomas Jordan, a clinical psychologist and love live researcher who may be the very best guy to answer that question. Dr. Jordan (you can call him Tom) and I talk first about the reasons why relationships ha...

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === Picture this... You're at a social gathering and you see some other guy talking to exactly the woman you had your eye on. She's laughing, hitting him on the shoulder and, well...looks like she's thoroughly attracted to him. But here's the thing...every time YOU finally get the chance to talk to a woman you really want, you never see ANY of those signals. What's going on there? Well, as this Snippet ...

Co-Host Marcus Oakey (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/marcus) My returning guest is British charisma coach Marcus Oakey, who is exactly who you need to help you get past small talk with people, and especially get through that awkward 'cordial' stage that ensues. What is it exactly about cordial small talk that's lacking, and what kind of conversation is it we should actually be moving toward instead? And what if you're indeed pretty...

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === Some guys give themselves a false sense of empowerment by blaming women for everything that goes wrong in relationships. In their estimation, any man who tries to 'do better' in a bad situation with a woman is acting like a weakling. But doesn't that leave us perpetually at an impasse when it comes to potential success with women? There's got to be a way to improve our ability to attract women and e...

Co-Host Dr. Avrum Weiss (https://www.mountaintoppodcast.com/avrum) The first time my guest Dr. Avrum Weiss was on, he threw down some enlightening yet challenging ideas about not only HOW we as men tend to be afraid of women, but WHY. This time, he returns to go into more detail about how even those of us who THINK we're pretty much fearless out there with women are hamstringing ourselves when it comes to success with women. As his...

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === It happens to every one of us. You meet a woman who in almost every way is beautiful, sexy, altogether sane and...well, PERFECT for you. EXCEPT ONE. And man...if she'd just change THAT one annoying habit or attraction faux pas, everything would be perfect. Well, what should you do? Should you just deal with it, or is there a workable strategy to affect the change? The answer--as in all too many scen...

Co-Host Emily McKay (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/coach) First and foremost, if you think even for a second that this episode is going to be about two dinosaurs reminiscing about the past, you're in for a surprise. Given how Emily and I have been totally immersed in dating and relationship stuff for nearly 20 years, we've had our fingers on the pulse of how men and women relate for a LONG time. On top of that, with a milestone hi...

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === You don't hear me talk about women in bars and clubs very often. As it turns out, there are plenty of good reasons for that. Not only do the PUAs tend to have that covered, most of you guys listening to this show are NOT pickup artists anyway. So why is it, then, that so many of us are left to believe that the advice for attracting women out on the town in Los Angeles or Miami will work with the kin...

Co-Host Jillian Romero Chaves (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/clara) My guest Jillian Romero Chaves is the founder and CEO of an app called Clara For Daters, which she emphasizes is NOT a dating app. As an active dater and a dating advocate herself as a single woman, she developed Clara as a tool to empower dating app users to get the most out of their rapidly-declining experience. Now, it's no secret that the vast majority of dati...

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT ===  The media and society at large tend to dictate what we are to find sexually attractive. You may have noticed that already, but have you ever noticed how what we're told to consider attractive almost always has ONE tricky feature in common? Meanwhile, I will PROVE in this brief Snippet From The Summit how what we as men have been trained to consider sexy and appealing isn't always what REALLY turns ...

Co-Host Chris M. Lyon (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/lyon) My guest is a coach certified in applied neuroscience and brain health, and the author of Leading and Supportive Love: The Truth About Dominant and Submissive Relationships. She joins me in this episode for a long-overdue discussion on the nature of dominant/submissive sexual relationships.

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === I fully get that plenty of guys out there are fed up with the state of dating, and even to the point of being fed up with women in general. The thing is, now there's a potential replacement for women out there...and although it seemed farfetched at first, it's apparently gaining momentum. But will the new really outweigh the conventional? Or were the futurists actually behind the times in their pred...
