Men getting in the fight to restore honor to masculinity, faith in families, and pride in our country. Each week we release a Mindful Monday episode, with a quote or idea I'm thinking on, with my thoughts for you to take away and implement. Then mid week
In under 48 hours, I had a post and a comment flagged and removed from both Reddit and the Next Door app. To say I was being general and safe with my post is an understatement, using no profanity and only making valid points, I'm out. I am not an observer, and can't be a part of something that I can't be myself on. If you use social media to connect, so long as it's not at the expense of real connection. If you need help understanding how to build real connection, and why it's the best investment with your time, reach out while we still have time. Email me here. And if you made it to the end, and want to listen to a powerful conversation between my good friends, Joshua and Shauna Dukes, and learn how they are helping those struggling through grief, click here.
For me, it started with getting out of my house, meeting other "like-minded" men. Once I felt I knew enough, it was time to bring them together. It started with a group text, and a saturday morning workout. Now we have a private group and plans to train together, shoot together, and I'm sure share a few old fashions.

Is on your shoulders, don't think you need to carry alone.

Instead of thinking something is wrong with you, accept what is reality. That until God returns, we are stuck in the fight of good versus evil.

The men in my circle, my tribe, know that for as much as I'm here for them, I will also be the first on to hold them accountable. No man I know is hitting a woman, period, unless he's ready to put the gloves on and step in the ring with me. And in this particular case, a very good friend of mine I learned drives home drunk from the bar. Not anymore he's not, not if he wants to stay in the circle. Standing by to hear from you. Email me.
Women are generally wired to avoid making a scene, and to avoid conflict in public. This conditioning has gone on for so long, that it often overpowers their instincts to protect themselves when they don't feel safe. Let's talk today about the idea of using fear, as well as how to convince women to keep their heads up living in a bubble. Standing by for a conversation.
The "freedom" and "sovereignty" that I subscribe to, isn't waiting on the outcome of the election. So regardless if he is on the ballot, wins, or they steal another one, my path is set. If you are ready to learn what it means to get on the path to becoming dangerous, email me and let's jump on a call. If you would, please consider who you know who would benefit from hearing this message, and share the show.
Do you feel in control, able to make decisions "uncoerced"? Do you feel confident should we experience "hard times"? Do you believe there will be a group of people you can trust who will help you figure it out? Standing by for your questions/feedback/if you are ready! Please share the show.
If you are still watching the circus but think you are not because you sit on the opposing the sideline, you're wrong. Two sides of the same coin, and you are limiting any hope of making real change in your life. Listen today as we talk what a rite of passage is, and the first phase required, the hardest phase, that of separating yourself. Email me here. Please open this in your phone and consider sharing via text message, and if you have a minute, leave a rating/review to help more people find the show.
It's not as much about blending in, as I don't plan to gain 50 pounds and walk around in pajamas, but about not making yourself an easy to identify threat to the bad guy, especially as the "good guy" becomes the "bad guy". Share the episode amongst your team and let me know when we can have discussion about it further. Perhaps a group zoom call within your battle team, or if you are local to DFW, over coffee or a workout. Email me here.
Props to the guys with home armories and tricked out vehicles and garages ready to load out. Hope the enemy gives you a warning order to allow you time to prepare. For the rest of us, don't focus on the gear you don't have or can't afford, as we don't know when the balloon will go up. What is always true, is that our mind and body will be in every fight, and we can sharpen those every day until that day where we will be tested. And better then gear, is the people who will stand with us to face the threat head on. Start there. Let the rest take care of itself. Email me your questions for Friday's Quick Fire and and ideas you have for future conversations. And always standing by for those ready to work with me.
The last conversation on purpose, I shared a story of having all the time in the world and it being one of the darkest times in my life. Please consider sharing the podcast with someone who needs to hear this message. Email me here. Leave a rating/review if you haven't yet.
One of the lowest points in my life, I had nothing but time. And while working with men I find the same is true, it's not that they need more and money, they need direction, and a higher purpose then just showing up. So listen today as I share my purpose, how I use that to guide my every damn day, and what the desired end state looks like when I hold true to "my why". Email me here and please consider leaving a rating/review if you found this episode inspiring, and share with a friend in your life who needs to know they aren't alone.
On a Saturday when we have no soccer games, I bet collectively we spend 20 hours or more on screen time. By the end of that day, I'm so disappointed in my life and how much control we give away to technology. Yet here I am reminding myself, the power to change that starts with me, getting off my phone, and using my hands to either build, repair, or create something of value other than burning up the wifi. So which is it y'all, you going to take your place on the couch every night, or join me in developing a new skill that might actually come in handy, sooner rather than later. Email me here and please consider sharing the show.
A guy like me is around the corner waiting to meet you and have that conversation you need to hear. Turn off the political noise, breaking news, and left/right memes that claim the world is ending. It's Not. Food, water, utilities, fuel, all still readily available. These are not hard times, yet. So while we can, continue to sharpen your skills, train to learn new skills, and see that the people around you will add value when SHTF. If you'd take a leap of faith today, you might find the answer has always been there. Email me if I can help you.
Until you have to question where you will buy food for your family, or you lose the ability to defend them, we aren't there yet. And yes, I understand choices have to be made as prices have gone up, but don't tell me on one hand food and gas is more expensive, while you maintain your subscriptions and buy the latest iphone. While time is still on our side, get on the path. Learn new skills, identify waste, develop your local barter network, and so much more. Don't allow the distraction that is "the world is on fire" to stop you from your preparations for when the ship does sink and it's time to swim. Email me your thoughts and if I can help you now.
Might be the most F bombs I've dropped in a while. The Italian boxer getting beat on by a man had me fired up today, then I see Willie's side piece yelling about Christmas. Anyways, Trump should win in Nov, but doesn't take office till January. Understand the 2 months in between is enough time to finish destroying our country, and if you ain't ready, good night. Always appreciate an email.
As I look back on 2020 and where this path to becoming dangerous began, it's clear I had to accept a few things first. Nobody is saving us, they aren't representing me, and I would be alone in the defense of my family. Those ideas set me on my current trajectory, and I share the 4 ideas to help you establish your way forward. If I can help, reach out via email.
Strong, married men have this in common. As do men who've gone through a divorce and lost their children, and themselves. You see, the first men, they are the rock they build their families on. And many men I work with after a divorce, they made their wife the rock, thus losing who they were when she decides the marriage is over. Don't be the guy who gets lost in the storm, know where you stand at all times. Be your own lighthouse, and be the light for others. When you know you are, and are unapologetically you, your tribe will find you. Email me or sign up for the newsletter.
The only value to anger is if you decide to wake up, and take charge of your life and focus on where you can have an impact. Your life, the value you bring, the way in which you lead and serve those you love, and being worthy of being followed. Those in arms reach are watching, and being the best you, means you'll maintain influence over the talking heads and social media floozies. So while the news cycle works 24/7 to maintain relevance, don't let them decide for you what's important. Standing by to know your thoughts and reach out if getting on the path is what you need in your life. Let's connect. Sign up for the email newsletter here.
Vote for him, I will. But accept that after that it'll still be completely up to you when SHTF. Accept the reality, he is just the face, the captain, the MVP, or your team. He is no more in control then the current commander in chief. It's the people we don't see, don't elect, and can't hold accountable that are. Would love a share and consider a rating/review.

The military aged males, the millions of them in our country, without families, have set the bar. Crime, looting, lawlessness, and when they can get a women or child alone, savagery. What are you doing to prepare to meet these men, or more, teach and train your wife and kids to defend against them? What's more, if you are fat and lazy and kick your feet up everyday, what the hell are you waiting for?
Spare me any talks about unity, or we need to do anything together. I don't trust anyone outside of my immediate family and select friends and put zero stock in politics or prayer as the answer. Listen to the show before judging that last one though.
And the last time enough people united around a political "movement", how'd that go for them? While the circus adds new acts, like guilty verdicts, and those in attendance continue to buy tickets and wait for November 5th... Those on the path to becoming dangerous need to remain focused on where they have control.
And how to maintain your edge when dealing with conflict and always stay in the fight, under control, and able to lead. If you like this episode consider sharing, and leave a rating and review. If you are not receiving the newsletter, sign up. As always, email me any thoughts.
With an introduction by a mutual friend, and without knowing anything else about him other Michael said we should talk, we decided to do it on a podcast and hit record. Buckle up as two dudes talk systemic problems around nationalized public schools, mental health and impact around kids and schools, how to keep kids safe, and why men have to lead from the front.

You are either getting ready to move, look for a new job, perhaps leave active duty, or without notice have to find a new job, we all go through periods of change. Having still failed to fully transition from active duty to retired, and flirting with full time coaching and general contracting, allow me to share a massive common denominator when going through change. Always here for you, send me an email, or shoot me a text.
There is something to be said of the pain of discipline, or the pain of regret, and having to make the choice.

This podcast is for the women who have been supporting me and the men seeking to become dangerous. A conversation specifically for you. We are talking men without a mentor, without a battle team, who seek money over mission, and who have mommy/daddy issues. I really hope this topic resonates with you and look forward to your feedback. Email or LinkedIn.
When we understand our sphere of control, and where our focus guarantees results, versus our inability to control others and detaching emotion from outcome. When focused, the real magic happens with influence, becoming a man of value, leading by example, and making others want to be in our tribe. Learn to harness this superpower and get on the path to becoming dangerous. Let's jump on a call if you are ready to take control and know you will be ready for whatever comes next.
With the world on fire, and every conversation I have with men around some version of preparedness, it seemed fitting my first interview be with a man who wrote a philosophy on how to prepare. Follow along for a gripping hour plus interview and leave with the confidence that when focused on your sphere of control, with quality inputs, a willingness to train, and the right tools, you will be ready for whatever comes next. Les can be reached via email or his website. As always, I'm standing by for those looking to invest in themselves and make being ready a priority in 2024. My email and website.

As my board of advisors, I'm asking for feedback on a recent revelation I've had working with men; the feeling where they are at being alone. Since 2020 it seems everyday is a new reason for someone to be outraged or draw new lines in the sand. And everyday more men have had enough. Only instead of checking out, they shelter physically and seek refuge in online platforms and other bad habits to ignore the decline in society. I want to offer a place for those men, who like us, understand our roles, and are preparing for the fight ahead. Let me know your thoughts. Email. LinkedIn.
Figured this is "mainstream" news so I'd share my thoughts. I will say, if you're virgin ears have never considered the real big bad wolf in this country, this one may offend you.

Not sure what your summer plans are, but mine don't involve visiting any major city in the US run by democrats and wearing the title of a "sanctuary". And if you think the chaos they'll experience is isolated to their problem, and believe "not my monkey, not my circus", you don't understand supply chains. Let's jump on a call if I can expedite your ability to be ready. Connect via LinkedIn. Email.

While we hope for the best, we know better than to not prepare for the worst. And my strongly held belief is that if he overcomes the massive fraud of 2020 and wins, the 2 months before he's sworn in will be the most chaotic months in our history outside of revolution and war. Listen to the end and tell me I'm wrong; Email, LinkedIn, Newsletter.

It's not because you're trying to be nice, or being a gentlemen, though that is a solid quality. You are the protector of your family, and by getting out of the vehicle first, and in the vehicle last, you are able to maintain situational awareness and see the threat coming.
