Its Therapeutic explores health through the lens of power. True power requires vitality, resilience, and enthusiasm—not just physical health. We go beyond the standard Western model to examine mental, emotional, financial, social, and moral health. In a safe, candid space, we tackle the taboo—from sex, drugs, and rock and roll to the intersection of science, success, and spirituality.

It’s Therapeutic is a bold podcast about health, power, and what we’re usually not allowed to talk about.
True power requires more than physical health—it demands vitality, resilience, enthusiasm, and integrity across every dimension of life. While the Western medical model often stops at the body, one of its most rigorous disciplines—transplant medicine—quietly acknowledges the truth: physical, mental, emotional, financial, social, and moral health are inseparable.
From that extreme edge of Western medicine, It’s Therapeutic opens a doorway into the next frontier of holistic health.
This podcast creates a safe, intelligent, and unapologetically honest space to explore the most stigmatized aspects of wellbeing—from sex, drugs, and rock and roll to a newer, equally taboo triad: science, success, and spirituality.
If health is power, It’s Therapeutic is where we learn how to reclaim both.

Fighting isn’t the problem. ⚔️🛡️
The problem is avoiding conflict.🙈🏃🏻♂️💨
What if your discomfort with conflict isn’t a virtue… but a character defect? 😰
In this episode, we unpack a powerful evolution: from sneaky resistance → open confrontation → true collaboration. It’s not about becoming aggressive.🦍
It’s about becoming competent, honest, and ultimately free.🦅🕊️
Because the real question isn’t “Do you like fighting?”🤜🏼😍🤛🏼
It’s, “What is your life costing you by not knowing how to fight?” 🤺
⏱️ Minute-by-Minute Timeline (10 Minutes)
0:00 – 1:00 😬 The Honest Admission
- “I don’t like fighting.”
- Reframes this: not a virtue, but a default wiring
- Tension between intellectual belief vs embodied aversion
1:00 – 2:00 🧠➡️💪 Knowing vs Doing
- Understanding fighting is necessary ≠ being able to do it
- Fear, conditioning, and avoidance still dominate behavior
- Need for new reference experiences to rewire response
2:00 – 3:00 🕚🔄🕐 Two Timelines Introduced
- Personal evolution (your growth with conflict)
- Conceptual evolution (where fighting fits among strategies)
- “Operating systems” for how we engage with life
3:00 – 4:00 🕵️♂️ Mercenary vs Missionary
- Discovery of the “mercenary vs missionary” framework
- Self-awareness: sneaky, insecure, people-pleasing tendencies
- Sneakiness = covert fighting
4:00 – 5:00 🪜Levels of Fighting⚔️
- Sneaky fighting (hidden, indirect, undermining)
- Open fighting (direct, unapologetic, visible)
- Open conflict = higher level, less miserable
5:00 – 6:00 📈 The Evolution Ladder
- Miserable → Mercenary → Missionary
- Non-competitive → Competitive → Collaborative
- Each step = less misery, more mastery
6:00 – 7:00 🦹🏻♂️ Breaking Down “Mercenary”
- Two sub-levels:
- Sneaky mercenary 😈 (more miserable)
- Open mercenary ⚔️ (less miserable)
- Transparency reduces internal friction
7:00 – 8:00 🏁 Why Competition Matters
- “Competitive” shares root with “competent”
- Growth requires stepping into competition
- Quotes:
- “You don’t have to be great to start, but you do have to start to be great”
- “Don’t do it until you get it right. Do it until you can’t get it wrong.”
8:00 – 9:00 🎙️ This Podcast = Fighting
- Recording = fighting inertia, inconsistency, fear
- Fighting isn’t just external, it’s also internal
- Discipline = a form of combat
- Action = conflict resolution, by definition
9:00 – 10:00 🔥 Call to Action
- Reflective questions:
- What do you need to fight?
- What improves if you do?
- Reframe fighting as:
- Honorable 🛡️
- Courageous 💥
- A path to less misery + more mastery
⚡ Core Takeaway:
You don’t go from peaceful to collaborative by skipping conflict.
You go through it—from sneaky → to honest → to skillful → to collaborative.
