  • Enjoy Dean’s “Man Flow Yoga” and the podcast is great as well!

    Deans approach to yoga and to overall fitness as well as well-being/mental health is really great and something I think so many guys really need! It’s not about machismo, being better looking or bulkier than the other dudes at the gym, and “massive gains”, etc. but about being the best you can be. I’ve been doing the yoga for several months now and have noticed a lot of differences in my health (I’m running faster, less injuries, lifting more at the gym, etc.) and the podcast has helped give me ... more

  • Great podcast!

    Recently found this podcast and really enjoy it! Loved your conversation with comedian Drew Lynch. It was so funny and what really resonated was his sharing of his journey and how yoga can help release trauma and insecurities that our bodies store deep inside. Tons of amazing takeaways in this episode! Thank you! 🙏

  • Gratitude

    As a man in my early 30s, this podcast has been a light and a comfort. I love the intense curiosity, vulnerability, and humour Dean and his guests bring to the show.

    I appreciate, too, the nuance, depth, and kindness Dean brings to what is often a fraught conversation about manhood.

    This show and MFY have helped me find compassion and discipline for myself in equal measure.

    Thank you.
