In this episode of Triangle Theory, hosts Konrad and Rupert sit down with James Joseph Stamatelos, a therapist and men’s work facilitator, to unpack his powerful framework known as The Triangle Theory. James explains how many of us live divided between three inner forces, the self we perform, the self we hide, and the self we long to be. By recognising and reconciling these parts, we open the door to greater self-compassion and emotional integration. This conversation explores the intersection of IFS therapy, men’s emotional development, and embodied self-awareness, offering practical insight into how to notice your internal patterns in real time. James shares how this work helps men move from self-judgment to self-relationship, and how genuine connection begins within. Konrad and Rupert bring a grounded, curious energy to the dialogue, connecting James’ therapeutic insights to real-life experiences of growth, honesty, and inner alignment. It’s a rich conversation for anyone on the path of self-understanding and transformation.
