This is Dr. Jesse Mills, host of the Mailroom Podcast. Each January, men promise to get stronger, work harder, and fix what's broken. But what if the real work isn't physical at all? I sat down with psychologist Dr. Steve Poulter to unpack shame, anxiety, and the emotional pain men were never taught how to name. Part of the way through the valley of despair is realizing this has happened, and you have to make a choice whether you're going to stay in it or move forward. Our two-part conversation is available now.

What practical ways can you implement to safeguard your energy?

It's a new year, and on the podcast Health Stuff, we're resetting the way we talk about our health.
Hari Kundabolu 1:16
Which means being honest about what we know, what we don't know, and how messy it can all be. I like to sleep in late and sleep early. Is there a chronotype for that, or am I just depressed? Health stuff is about learning, laughing, and feeling a little less alone.

The older I get, here's the number one thing I prioritize, protecting my energy. Protecting your energy is the most important investment you will ever make. Energy is how you show up in the moment. It's how you use your time. It's how you connect with people. If your energy is drained, you can't achieve anything. If your energy is sucked out of you, you're not the best version of yourself. And if your energy is being pulled out of you, you don't have the ability to make an impact. So many of you want to be incredible entrepreneurs. So many of you want to launch your own podcast. So many of you want to find love and build the right relationship. all of those require energy. Energy isn't just about how much flow you have and how much enthusiasm you have.

It's about the frequency that you vibrate at, what you attract into your life, the kind of people you surround yourself by. Have you ever noticed that some people leave you feeling full and others leave you feeling flat? You start the day feeling okay, but after a call, a meeting, a quick catch-up, you feel strangely tired, like someone unplugged your spirit. That's not in your head. That's your energy being taken, wasted, or exploited. Today, I want to talk to you about how to protect your energy so that your energy is never wasted, it's never taken or exploited by anyone, and that you're not building walls, but learning how to manage your light. Because not everyone who wants your energy deserves to have the key.
Jay Shetty 3:23
Part one. Here's something I've learned. Every text, every conversation, every thought, it's an investment. And just like money, if you spend without awareness, you end up emotionally broke. There are two types of people in your life, energy investors and energy thieves. Energy investors leave you better. They give as much as they take. You walk away inspired, lighter, expanded. Energy thieves, on the other hand, they leave you heavy, confused, and drained. And here's the trick. They don't always mean to. Sometimes they're just running on empty themselves. And if you don't have boundaries, they'll subconsciously plug into you like you're their charger. Pause for a moment and think. Who in your life leaves you lighter and who leaves you heavier?
Jay Shetty 4:13
That's your body's wisdom speaking. It's amazing, isn't it, how our body and mind actually tell us how we feel.
