In this episode, Eric and Andrew take a deep dive into the multifaceted concept of sacrifice in committed relationships. They explore how mindful leadership and inner dominance can enhance love, connection, and authenticity.

The conversation highlights the role of selfishness in relationships—not as a flaw but as a foundation for genuine giving, rooted in abundance and self-awareness. They also challenge the societal and religious narratives that emasculate men, encouraging listeners to question and redefine these beliefs. The episode concludes with an inspiring discussion on how aligning with one’s authentic self and values can create a richer, more fulfilling life, both personally and within relationships.

About Conscious Dominance

The Conscious Dominance podcast was born from weekly conversations between two friends, Andrew & Eric.

Every week, we would connect and talk about the ways that our roles as Dominants in long term, loving Dominant/submissive relationships were calling us to higher integrity, and demanding the absolute best from each of us as men. And in those conversations, we realized how much other men might benefit from being let in on these conversations. So we started recording them for you.
