From Outer Success to Inner Peace: Breathwork, Energy Healing & Self-Love with Rick Lybarger | Real Men Feel
Host Andy Grant interviews Rick Lybarger, founder of Wisdom Won, about moving from external achievement to genuine inner fulfillment. Rick shares how decades as a financial planner, a divorce, heavy drinking, and childhood trauma led him to seek deeper joy through spirituality, including Modern Mystery School work such as Life Activation, plus breathwork and meditation. They discuss how men often chase money and security while staying disconnected from the heart, and why self-love, self-trust, and worthiness are foundational for healing and relationships.
Rick explains conscious connected breathing as a somatic practice that can release stuck energy and emotions, and offers simple coherence techniques (like longer exhales) to downregulate the nervous system. He describes overcoming skepticism about “woo-woo” practices, exploring masculine archetypes, and invites listeners to connect via wisdomwon.com.
