We now find ourselves at the end of a 80 year generational cycle that author Neil Howe calls a “4th Turning." Historically, during a 4th turning,&nbsp;there’s massive conflict and division, tension and huge changes occurring socioeconomically, along with collapses and rebuilds of all kinds across the board.</p><p>As a part of the ending of this cycle, we as men are being tasked with ending the generational trauma that have plagued our world for thousands of years resulting in the&nbsp;war/genocide, abuse, crime, and wide-scale corruption. This is a time of both great chaos AND GREAT OPPORTUNITY. It’s our time to step up, evolve, heal our world, and put an end to so much suffering on this planet.</p><p>In today’s episode, we dive into how these generational cycles keep us slaves to our unconscious wounds and traumas that are continually playing out and cycling over and over.
