Metrics From The Week
My teenager streak has broken 😥 Mostly influenced by my sleep hours and consistency which are a bit down from the last 30d of traveling.
Snaps From The Week
Familiar Spaces
Back at Gigi Susu (had to get the cold brew + pain au chocolat setup) and Blacklist (single origin espresso)
Give It All
We back!
It was great to see people I knew before and also meet new people! Great event and space, I like this one. The host tried this new AI matchmaking thing where you get paired up based on human connection. Ended up helping another guy with something he’s struggling with, and getting some ideas for what I’m wrestling with business wise.
Bulking
The bulk is bulking. (90.9kb = 200.4lbs)
Cracked over 200lbs for the second time ever. Though… this was mid-afternoon, post-lunch, not fasted in the morning. Still cool to see the progress though given how long I’ve been trying to gain weight.
Coaching/Content
I’m back running Tribal Solutions! Though I don’t have a pic to share so just imagine it.
It went super well, facilitated the space for like 15 people this week? Then had a nice chat with this guy about AI and second-brains, and met someone else who was intrigued by what I do and followed up with a little (little = 2hr) “discovery chat” later in the week!
I’ve also been sort of tweaking my intro (“what do you do” response) and positioning to make sure I’m attracting the right avatar as well as knowing how to properly open a conversation with curiosity.
I was in the sauna one afternoon/evening and a guy asked what I do, used my new intro line and it worked! Sparked a conversation, multiple people were asking me about what I do. Then went to the sun beds after and this guy came back over (from the sauna) and we continued chatting.
Back on YouTube!
That “Full Fridge Problem” video felt suuuper good. I rewatched it a couple days later and IT hit me. I was like damn.
If you can’t tell by these two video titles, I’ve been experimenting with what I (or Claude, really) call “coined authority hooks,” terms that mean literally nothing, but you apply them to a situation. Natural curiosity driver.
I’m also working on (related to the positioning stuff), focusing in on my positioning in Reels, stories, and YouTube videos, really specific on my ICP. Trying to really train the algorithms who I want to be putting my content in front of and no one else.
Thoughts From The Week
Started getting back into the body more finally. It’s been like a couple months since I did some intentional IFS work. So I started doing more mini-meditations, quick Focusing sessions, quick somatic drop-ins, IFS, taking breaks lying on my bed or sitting outside and not being on my phone.
I’m starting to get back into seeing why this stuff is so helpful.
202605271817 What it's like to feel invisible
#seen #unseen #invisible #feeling
You look to meet her eyes and they glance past.
You meet eyes and there's no interaction, she looks away.
It's this emptiness inside.
Hollow.
Like you don't exist.
Like you don't even matter.
You are nothing.
## Context
Came to my first shoulder mobility class with [name] of this year (2026). I had one interaction with her a couple days after arriving 2 weeks ago and she had a kind of cold dismissive reaction in the first second or two, so dropped the interaction and walked away.
Since then we've had an eye contact or two and seems been straight faced.
Today I came to the mobility class. Last year I had a lot of fun in these classes interacting with her, poking each other back and forth. Then I asked her to coffee before she left and she dismissed it.
The next class or something when she came back we had like zero interaction, she barely looked at me.
Then the last class before I left it changed back again to positive, I was her test example for the class, we made eyes and jokes.
So anyways I came back today and I think we made a quick eye contact two times during the entire hour long class. She asked does anyone have any injuries and kind of made her way around the room and literally just skipped over me.
Nothing.
No faces.
No interaction.
Invisible.
Like I didn't even exist.
And during the class I was just thinking about kind of feeling into this feeling as a learning. I'm at a point where I don't want or need to escalate, get a coffee, even a conversation, but I'm like not even just some light convo or interaction during class? Damn bro
And this feeling of unseen and invisible came up during my [call this week] so I thought it might be nice to capture and kind of lean into this feeling.
And the other thought was to feel into this and remember it, because in some ways this is what I fear during a cold approach or an interaction or a friend. And I've lived it. Multiple times. And I'm still alive. You just kind of "get the signal and move on"
202605300924 Weird universe sign yesterday with this girl approach missfire
#social #universe
Was at Nirvana last night, saw this asian girl Indo? that I've made eye contact with like 5 times. Isn't super my type, but I was like she's not bad, I'd talk to her.
Went into the sauna and passed by her, quick eye contact, came out, she was sitting at the chairs across from the juice bar. I did the ice bath and started thinking, why don't you say something? Just introduce yourself, you've already had warm signals from eye contact, assume she wants your approach and just make it quick if it's bad vibes.
The regular fears and overthinking came up.
But after being tired from sauna and ice bath, I felt that feeling of just more "I don't really care" calm confidence. Started visualizing the social interaction.
I went into the locker room to get my water bottle and then made the decision "okay I'm gonna do it"
I walk out of the locker room, see her sitting there, and LITERALLY right as I'm 5 steps away, this guy ([name], met him last year) makes eye contact with her and goes "heyyy good to see you! how are things" and she responds.
So I keep walking past...
And I just couldn't help thinking what the fuck?
I was gonna do it. I really was.
Why did that happen?
Like LITERALLY the moment I was on my way to approach, out of all the times that could've happened... why did it happen at that EXACT moment?
So I'm like did you not want me to do it? was it friction I was supposed to get over? Was I supposed to approach anyways? But I don't think that's right.
Then I was like maybe it was a sign to approach at a different time?
I dunno but that was wild...
202605301102 Creating emotional safety using masculine presence
#personal #masculine #presence #safety #emotions
Heard this from [name] yesterday, this idea that I, Peter, give this energy that I'm fully _here._
And this came up with [name] on [date] as well, feeling safe with me.
[name] was like you could crush a workshop on how men can fully step into their masculine energy, the angle of masculine energy that's presence and safety.
Because most men lean more towards the stereotypical view of masculine as being like stoic and unbothered.
Whereas this more true version of masculine energy is the container that allows someone/a woman to fully _express_ her emotion without needing to jump in, flinch, or try to fix it.
And that's something she said she doesn't find a lot.
My hypothesis (that she validated) was that a lot of the guys that are "in tune" with their emotions are quite feminine.
But guys who are very intellectual, can analyze, use logic, but ALSO tap into their body and emotions... that's rare.
And that just got me thinking...
