34. How Masculine and Feminine Energy Influence a Relationship with Anna Nassery and Aaron Alexander
from HYDRATE with Tracy Duhs · host Tracy Duhs
What is masculinity? How does it differ from femininity? Why do some men feel afraid to be masculine, but women feel the need to turn down their masculine energy when in the presence of men? In this episode of Hydrate, Anna Nassery, Aaron Alexander, and I discuss how important it is to be your own true and authentic self when it comes to your energy before entering a relationship. Whether you have more masculinity, femininity, or balanced energy, it is important to allow it to flow that way. Plus, we also talk about the importance of choosing a partner for who they are and not their potential, as the difference between seeing someone for their highest self and what you think they have the potential to be based on your own personal projections can cause disappointment. Aaron Alexander is a manual therapist, movement coach, and author, as well as the host of the Align Podcast, ranked #1 in Nutrition on Apple Podcasts. Anna Nassery is the Founder and CEO of BrandUp, a strategic brand studio serving online entrepreneurs and a close friend of mine.
