I started a life coaching business Nearly A Decade Ago when I recognized that therapy wasn't working for a lot of guys and they were looking for mentorship, and I knew from my own personal experiences that what they were really wanting was something like a glorified guidance counselor, like a high school or college guidance counselor, and because of my personal history, which has been something of a hero's journey from bad times to personal success. I felt that I could construct a pedagogy that would allow men to transition from self-defeating to absolutely thriving in their personal lives.
Ever wondered what it takes for men to transition from feeling stuck to truly thriving? In this episode of 'The Melting Pot', host Brent Bryant sits down with men's coach Dennis Procopio to uncover the secrets behind his successful mentorship approach. Dennis shares his own journey, which he describes as a hero's path, and explains how it inspired him to help other men break free from self-defeating habits.
He started his life coaching business nearly a decade ago, recognizing that traditional therapy wasn't cutting it for many guys. Instead, they needed something more akin to a high school guidance counselor but tailored for adult challenges. Dennis's method is structured around three phases: survival mode, maintenance mode, and creative mode. In the first phase, he helps clients set goals and make better decisions. By the second phase, it's all about maintaining those positive changes.
The final phase encourages creativity and long-term success. Most of his clients stick with him for 6 to 12 months, finding the structured approach incredibly beneficial. Dennis primarily works with relatively successful men who feel stuck in certain areas of their lives. Whether it's building a social circle, improving communication in relationships, or overcoming overthinking, his tailored guidance helps them move forward. He also emphasizes the importance of meditation techniques and shifting from an 'attack script' to a 'validation script'.
One of Dennis's key pieces of advice is to find a mentor—someone who is already doing what you want to do and doing it well. He suggests looking for mentors who are further along in their journey and reaching out to them for guidance. For those interested in working with Dennis, he offers international sessions via Zoom. This episode is packed with practical advice and inspiring stories that highlight the transformative power of mentorship.
Whether you're looking to make small changes or significant life shifts, Dennis's insights offer a roadmap to personal success.
