Surveying the Manscape

We tend to follow in the footsteps of those who came before us because that is how we learn. What if the “old methods” no longer work? What if you followed these “traditional” steps to the letter and they have brought you none of the rewards you were promised? What if the cost of following these traditional steps has been too much? Has it cost you your marriage/family/job? Is it possible you may be the problem?

Or…

You feel like there must be something better than the locker room and playground behavior you’ve been a part of since you were a kid… You’re not a kid anymore. You need a new definition of manhood, a new code to follow that supports your integrity and doesn’t require you to step on others…

Do any of these look familiar?

  • Does conflict always seem to follow you?
  • Is winning an argument more important to you than why you are arguing?
  • Do you seek conflict because you have no other way to resolve differences?
  • Do you believe communication with your partner/spouse/family is possible without conflict?
  • Are you always the person who has to “tell it like it is?”
  • Do you experience a never-ending pressure to compete with others?
  • Is it possible you may be the problem?

ESCAPE THE PLAYGROUND! You are not a kid anymore. I can help you redefine yourself in a way that emphasizes fairness and genuine strength. This is true leadership by example! Treat others the way you want to be treated, correct your course, and level up to your best self! Contact me today so we can get started!

More About Me…

When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.

Sun Tzu

Ted Morris believes becoming one’s truest self is the greatest gift we can award ourselves. Opening Audacious Growth in 2020 is the culmination of a 15 year career as a therapist. Ted formerly worked with clients within the judicial system and as a crisis clinician within the community mental health system in both Colorado and Georgia. Ted is a graduate of Argosy University and holds a master’s degree in psychology. Skilled in both cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing, Ted focuses his practice on helping people further enhance their lives by eliminating toxic patterns that have been holding them back.

Through these diverse settings, Ted noticed a common theme impacting clients’ therapeutic successes: people tend to do better if those helping them meet them where they are in their respective challenges. Regardless of what someone has done or what circumstances they find themselves in, acceptance can be the key to unlocking previously resistant transformation.

Ted feels all people want to be heard and improvement starts with listening. Hearing what they have to say and why they feel they must change is the first step toward transformation. People do their best when they feel accepted. Ted favors a direct approach in goal setting and giving people tools they can apply right away.

Ted has worked as a therapist, coach and personal trainer. “I am invested in helping people realize and develop their potential. The spirit of Audacious Growth is being willing to take those big steps necessary to create big and lasting changes to their lives.”

Comparison is the thief of joy – Theodore Roosevelt

Ted believes that our individual uniqueness is a strength we must all develop. When we compare ourselves unfavorably to others, we are robbing ourselves of what makes us special. Each of us has a talent that brings us joy. Expressing and exercising these talents is what develops our truest self.
