Description

In this powerful comeback episode of the Frequency Shift Podcast, Karis and Nick sit down to explore a hard but necessary truth — that many men today are stuck in a state of suspended adolescence.

They may look like adults on the outside — building businesses, raising families, ticking boxes — but beneath the surface, they’re still chasing comfort, avoiding responsibility, and outsourcing emotional leadership. The result? Burnout, broken trust, disconnection, and a deep sense of purposelessness.

This episode isn’t about shame. It’s about the rite of passage from boyhood to manhood — and what it means to initiate yourself in a culture that has forgotten how.

Whether you’re a man ready to rise or a partner who sees the man you love playing small — this conversation will give you language, clarity, and direction.

3 POWERFUL TAKEAWAYS:

1. Boyhood Behaviours Keep You Small — Even in a Big Life.
2. Addictions to porn, gaming, emotional outsourcing, and avoidance don’t just delay maturity — they rob men of power, clarity, and impact. True masculinity is forged in resistance, not comfort.
3. Initiation is a Choice — Not a Calendar Date.
4. Becoming a man isn’t something that happens at 18 or when you get a mortgage. It’s an intentional decision to take radical ownership, build internal structure, and lead from the inside out.
5. The Cost of Staying a Boy Is Far Greater Than the Discomfort of Growth.
6. When men avoid responsibility, it shows up in every domain: fractured relationships, a loss of trust, inner chaos, and women forced into masculine roles. The shift starts with you — and it starts now.
