**Yoga, Masculinity & the Inner Warrior — with Dr. Catherine Cook-Cottone**
What’s one of the most common (and surprising) habits of high-performing men? Nope, it’s not cold plunges or biohacking… it’s *yoga*.
In this eye-opening episode, Dr. John sits down with Dr. Catherine Cook-Cottone — professor, psychologist, yoga teacher, and all-around badass — to unpack the science-backed benefits of yoga and mindfulness for men who want to kick more ass *and* feel more peace.
We explore:
- Why yoga isn’t just for Instagram influencers and bendy women in tights
- How high-performing men around the world use embodied practices to regulate stress and build emotional strength
- What it means to be a *courageous warrior* — someone who can face chaos both outside *and* within
- Why masculinity looks different across cultures — and why that matters
- And the truth about eating disorders: yes, men get them too (and we need to start talking about it)
