In a heartwarming episode of the Dads with Daughters podcast, we speak with Brent Dowlen, a dedicated father and the voice behind The Fallible Man podcast. Brent shares his heartfelt journey of fatherhood, underscoring the value of prioritizing family, embracing transparency, and finding personal purpose. The Blessing of Fatherhood Discovering Love with Daughters Brent Dowlen recounts the heart-stopping moment of holding his first daughter for the first time. He admits that he, like many fathers, was overwhelmed with joy and a touch of terror. "It's real now. This little life is dependent on me," he shares, capturing the duality of excitement and responsibility that comes with fatherhood. He never knew the gender of his children until birth, emphasizing that his main hope was simply for a healthy child. Fears and Aspirations Despite his extensive background in youth ministry, Brent was not immune to the fears that accompany fatherhood. His primary concern was setting an exemplary standard, knowing that his daughters would one day seek partners who reflect his character. This realization spurred a significant personal transformation. Brent openly discusses the fears of not living up to the high bar he set and the journey he has undergone to become the best version of himself. Embracing Transparency Owning Mistakes and Building Trust Brent emphasizes transparency and honesty with his children. He candidly shares stories of his past mistakes and life experiences, adapting the depth of these dialogues to his daughters' developmental stages. This approach, he believes, nurtures trust and resilience in his daughters. "Kids will cling to transparency," Brent says. By owning up to his mistakes and maintaining honesty, he sets a robust foundation of trust and respect in his family. Handling Pain Together Brent's parenting style includes teaching his daughters practical skills to navigate physical and emotional pains. He recounts holding his daughter during her shots, teaching her to breathe through the pain—an approach he values highly. This practice not only builds resilience but also demonstrates his unwavering support and presence during difficult moments. The Dynamics of Different Personalities Unique Bonds with Each Child Recognizing and responding to the unique personalities of his daughters is another core aspect of Brent's parenting philosophy. His older daughter, who shares his passion for activities, bonds with him through early morning walks and fishing trips. On the other hand, his younger daughter cherishes snuggles and quiet chats. Brent's ability to adapt to their distinct needs strengthens his relationship with each child. "Part of me going for walks in the morning has to do with me trying to stay somewhat healthy. Part of it is I wouldn't trade that time for anything," says Brent, highlighting the precious one-on-one times. The Fallible Man: A Journey to Better Self Inspiration Behind the Podcast Driven by a desire to impact lives positively, Brent launched "The Fallible Man" podcast in 2020. Initially rooted in his background in ministry, his motivation evolved as he sought ways to mentor and guide men, especially those without positive male role models. The podcast strives to redefine masculinity, focusing on self-improvement and purposeful living rather than physical attributes. Major Takeaways for Men Reflecting on over 300 episodes, Brent's key takeaway is the critical need for men to discover their unique purpose. "All men were born for a purpose. You inherently have worth because you're a person," he notes. Living in alignment with this purpose, accompanied by humility, paves the way for personal growth and clarity in life's decisions. Brent asserts true masculinity lies in purpose, mission, and authenticity, rather than stereotypical physical traits. Fatherhood Insights and Advice Living for Priorities The podcast episode wraps up with Brent sharing a piece of sage advice: "20 years from now, your boss won't care about how many hours you worked. Your children will never ever ever forget that they were your priority." This encapsulates the essence of Brent's parenting philosophy—being present and making your children feel valued above all else is a lasting legacy of fatherhood.

Brent's extensive work aims to help men navigate their journey of self-improvement, ultimately making a positive impact on their families and communities. TRANSCRIPT (Unedited transcript made by CASTMAGIC) Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:00:05]: Welcome to Dads with Daughters. In this show, we spotlight dads, resources, and more to help you be the best dad you can be. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:00:16]: Welcome back to the dads with daughters podcast, where we bring you guests to be active participants in your daughters' lives, raising them to be strong, independent women. Really excited to have you back again this week. Every week, you and I have an opportunity to be able to talk, to walk this path that we're walking to be able to raise our daughters into those strong, independent women that we want them to be. And I love that we're able to have these conversations because each of us is on our own journey. However, we don't have to do this alone. And it's so important that we surround ourselves with other people with different experiences that can share those experiences with each other. And then we can learn from them. So showing up today is part of the battle. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:00:58]: You need to show up. You gotta show up for your kids, but you also gotta show up for yourself and you have to be willing to learn because none of us have the perfect playbook when it comes to raising our kids. We have to be open to hearing, listening, and learning from other dads because you know what? They probably have some things they can share. And that's important. It's really important that we're able to learn and grow from each other in that way. That's why every week I love being able to bring you different dads from with different experiences that are able to share those experiences with you so that you can add some new tools to your own toolbox. And today we've got another great guest with us today. Brent Dowlen of The Fallible Man podcast is with us today, and I'm really excited to be able to have Brent with us. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:01:45]: Brent is a father of 2 daughters, and I'm really excited to get to know him a little bit more. Let you get to know him a little bit more and learn a little more about his own fatherhood journey. Brent, thanks so much for being here today. Brent Dowlen [00:01:57]: Chris, thanks for having me on. I'm really excited to be here. I don't get to talk about being a daddy, a daughter, daddy very often. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:02:02]: Well, I'm excited to have you on. And what I wanna do is I wanna turn the clock back in time again. And I know you've got 2 daughters, so I'm gonna go all the way back. You said you have a 10 year old and a 12 year old. So I want to go back. Maybe let's say it's 13 years, might be 12 and a half years. But I want to go back to that first moment that you found out that you were going to be a dad to to a daughter. What was going through your head? Brent Dowlen [00:02:21]: Well, Chris, I didn't actually know I was gonna have a daughter until she was born. My wife and I went the old fashioned route with both our children, had no idea what we were having because I determined a long time ago that I was just hoping for a healthy kid. So many dads find out right off the bat there's something wrong with their kid, and and that's such a hard reality. So my wife had on the side, and we were just glad if our kid was healthy, then we had already won, and it didn't really matter what it was. So but the doctor put my daughter in my arms for the first time. I did the full tilt thing. I was in the delivery room, and I cut the umbilical cord. And, man, I wish I don't know that there are words for that moment when they put your first child in your arms. Brent Dowlen [00:03:01]: We were a little terrified. My daughter was 3 and a half weeks early, and she was very small. And right off the bat, like, I'm a fairly big guy. I'm 6 foot. I've lifted weights most of my life. And so I'm I'm a fairly husky, big fella. And I was so terrified when they put this beautiful little thing in my hands, and she wasn't the length of my forearm. And I was just, like, looking at this little thing going, oh, wow. Brent Dowlen [00:03:25]: It's real now. This little life is dependent on me, and I'm terrified and thrilled all at the same time. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:03:31]: So talk to me about that fear because I've talked to lots of dads and a lot of dads say they have fear. Not only fear of just being a father, but especially when it came to being a father of a daughter, sometimes there's fear that is different than having a son or in just becoming a father in general. What would you say has been your biggest fear in raising your daughters? Brent Dowlen [00:03:55]: That I could live up to setting the bar high enough. From the moment I first looked at my oldest, Abby, I thought I've gotta get it together, man. Because so I have a background in working with kids and youth ministry, particularly in church. To youth minister, I grew up in the church working with children's groups. I was I taught children's bible church and all that stuff growing up. And from the time I was probably in junior high, I started working with younger kids. And it's interesting working with other people's kids, but then all of a sudden, this is a real moment because you've seen mistakes other parents have made. Right? And everybody thinks they have a clue until right? Everybody has an opinion about parenting until you have your own children. Brent Dowlen [00:04:35]: And then you're like, wow. What a jerk I was. But I had this dawning fear. I was like, how can I possibly become enough, fast enough? Because I knew that my daughters are gonna find a guy just like me. And that terrifies me because I was not a great guy my whole life. And so immediately this fear of how can I live up to setting the bar high enough that one day my daughter's gonna bring home a guy that's not a total dirtbag? Because I know, like, I was not the prize to bring home for some dads. I'm I'm sure I made some dads a little bit grayer, a little bit older. So that was the big fear. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:05:15]: Talk to me about that because you went through a transition for yourself. You talked about the fact that you were not always the prize to bring home, that you weren't the model man for yourself and for others, let's say. At some point, your daughters may find that out. And have you thought about that? And what are you going to say to your daughters about who you were versus who you are now? Brent Dowlen [00:05:40]: You know, Chris, actually, this conversation, I've started really early with my children. We have been very transparent with the way we raise our kids. Like, my my children, I have scars all over my body. Like, I have I have found every way to hurt myself along the way. Right? So I have all these scars all over my body. I I lived very fast paced, lots of accidents, lots of mistakes, lots of injuries to prove it over the years. And so my daughters love to hear the stories about the scars. Right? They'll pick a random scar. Brent Dowlen [00:06:07]: They don't remember the story from. Or and so I've been very upfront the whole time when my daughter's gone. Yeah. I was stupid. I I made some horrible choices. This was one of those dumb things where God smiled on me and I lived through it regardless of how dumb it was at the moment. And so I've tried to be, of course, age appropriate. Right? We haven't gone into some of the dirtbag choices I've made along the way. Brent Dowlen [00:06:31]: But as it has become more age appropriate, I'm very open to talking to my children about mistakes I've made and about choices I made along my life. And I'm very quick to own up to this was a bad choice. Like, I was in a bad place and making really bad choices. I got into drugs and alcohol for a while and made some poor choices there. And so I've been very forthright about that because one of the things I did take in from being a youth minister into being a dad was kids will cling to transparency. You you can't outlive everything you've ever done. And so many people lie to kids throughout their whole life that you don't have to be perfect. But if you can be honest, if your kids can see that you are honest with them and that you don't pretend to have all the answers, that you're not perfect, that you make mistakes, I'm quick to apologize for things, then there's that that they cling to you because they know if nothing else in your life and their lives, you're real. Brent Dowlen [00:07:32]: I'm the one who gets to hold my children during shots and stuff like that. I have their whole life. I remember going to get shots from my oldest and she said, daddy, is it gonna hurt? I said, yeah, baby, it's gonna hurt, but it's only gonna hurt for a minute. And I'm right here with you and we're gonna breathe through it like you and I have practiced because I was already teaching her how to breathe through pain before that. I've always been very quick because I have racked up the injuries to teach them this is this is how we get through it. We breathe deep. We stay calm. We focus on our breathing. Brent Dowlen [00:08:00]: And so I held her arms against her chest and it hurt for a second. And then within a couple of breaths, it was gone. Right? But there was no, oh, oh, it's just a little, you know, none of that nonsense. Just this is who we are. And it's been it's been effective for me so far. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:08:18]: You know, you talked about that fear that you had at the very beginning. And in raising your daughters and raising kids is not always easy. There's going to be ups and downs and they're gonna throw your curve balls along the way and you're gonna have to learn and kind of be able to pivot as you move along. What's been the hardest part for you in being a father to a daughter? Brent Dowlen [00:08:43]: I have a very logic based outlook on life and approach to things. I I won't say I'm closed off emotionally, but I have lived through some really dark spots in my life over the years. And so softening up from time to time because I don't want to teach them not to deal with their emotions, but it's also hard sometimes for me to realize, wait, we're processing an emotion now. I need to let this happen. I need to let them feel that and not try and make it okay right away. And sometimes I'm bad at recognizing those things because I deal with a lot of emotional stuff at a very, just logical ones and zeros. My brain is very quick to go. Okay. Brent Dowlen [00:09:28]: I'm experiencing and feeling this is a reaction to something. Is it gonna help me right now? Is it not gonna help me right now? If it's not gonna help me right now, I shut it down very quickly until there's a better time to deal with it. I still will go back and deal with that, but I look at it from a very exploded diagram view. I start analyzing it immediately and breaking down what's going on, and what I need to do to adjust instead of feeling it and experiencing it. I tend to analyze through it and process things that way. And so with daughters, they're gonna feel things. Your children have very different personalities. My 12 year old, she's like me, she wants to carry the weight of the world on her shoulders. Brent Dowlen [00:10:06]: And so learning to understand when she's processing something, as opposed to my newly 10 year old, who she's very emotions are on the sleeve. Right? So learning to recognize their emotional needs and responses has been probably one of the bigger pain points for me because it's very easy for me to go and it's not a, I'm a guy thing. I've always been that way. Like, I was a klutzy kid. I had a lot of sinus issues. And so my depth perception was skewed when I was congested. And so I had already had stitches multiple times by the time I was 6. Like, I've been beating myself up for a long time. Brent Dowlen [00:10:45]: My head looks like a topographical map. And so I learned very early to sort the fear and the emotion out of situations. Sometimes just for the sake of survival. I had to deal with a couple moments of if I lose it now, if I can't stay focused and clear, I'm gonna die before I can get to help. And so I've been this way for a very long time, and it's very different with daughters because, yep, you're gonna experience your emotions and their emotions and the emotions they inflict on everybody else. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:11:14]: You know, you talked about the fact that kids are different, and they have different personalities. And when you add more than one kid to the mix, you gotta deal with it. And you've already talked about the fact that one of your kids wears her emotion on her sleeves, the other one wears it on their shoulders. And you have to be able to show up for both types of kids, both personalities. You have to build those unique relationships with each and try to find that common ground. Talk to me about that. How have you been able to build that those unique bonds with each of your kids, even though they're very different personalities, very different people, and you have to treat them differently in that way? Brent Dowlen [00:11:56]: That's honestly one of the fun parts, I think, about being a dad, girl dad. So my oldest, we process things. She processes things much closer to the way I do. So in learning to deal with her and and her emotional needs, I found she wants to get involved with things. Right. So we go for walks. Like she gets up with me at 4, 4:30 in the morning and we go walk 2 miles on a regular basis. And that is how she connects with me. Brent Dowlen [00:12:25]: And really that one on one time she wants to connect and walk, but not be, it's our own doing. My wife was a tomboy. And so both of us would actually tend to go to the male characteristic of dealing with emotions and communicating and that's side by side as opposed to face to face. And so Abby is much more likely to talk to me while we're out walking or she likes to fish. I hate fishing. I suck at fishing, but I have learned to go fishing because my 12 year old loves to go fishing. So we go fishing regularly. I got all the good fishing gear. Brent Dowlen [00:12:58]: My brother and I took him camping when they were a couple years younger, and they had such a great time. He's a big mountain guy. Like, he's mister mountain kinda thing. So he took him fishing and she's been fishing ever since. And we got back from that trip and I went, okay. And I went to Walmart and I found a nice older gentleman on the fishing aisle. And I said, I don't know anything about fishing, but my daughter likes it and I wanna be able to take her. So what do I need to know? And he had a great time teaching me what I need to know to take her fishing. Brent Dowlen [00:13:25]: It's side by side. It's while we're fishing. It's while we're walking. That's how she wants to process. And she does better. Like, she has a better outlook. She stays more positive. She processes things more if I keep her doing things like that. Brent Dowlen [00:13:38]: So part of me going for walks in the morning has to do with me trying to stay somewhat healthy. Part of it is I wouldn't trade that time for anything Cause that is solid gold time. The youngest one, she wants to cuddle still. At 10, she is very her safe place and both of them to this day at 10 and 12. Like I had both of them, one on each side of me last night, just wrapped under my arms on the couch because daddy is still the safe place. I'm loving that part of being a dad that they're still at 10 and 12, that's where they wanna be. When they're tired, when they're exhausted, they wanna be right up next to me. But my 10 year old, she wants to be much more snuggly when she's processing stuff. Brent Dowlen [00:14:15]: She needs the quiet. She needs the face to face. She just wants to be held and listened to. She went with me to run an errand the other day and talked. We drove an hour. The closest Home Depot is like 45 minutes away from me. So she talked all the way there and all the way back and told me about these books she's reading. And I loved listening to her talk about it because as she's talking about those books, she's talking about things she read in those books that she wants to understand, that she's identifying with. Brent Dowlen [00:14:47]: And so there, I hear about it with her, but then it's afterwards in the face to face moments, in the quiet moments when it's just us that she wants to dig into that stuff. So I feel like winning because my kids wanna talk to me. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:15:00]: I love that. And it changes as they get older, but it's so important when you have those opportunities to take advantage of them, especially as they're young. But even as they get older, if they're willing to give you the time, you take it. Because as they get older, they're gonna pull away a little bit more. And if you've built those strong relationships now, it's what's going to pave the way for the future. Brent Dowlen [00:15:23]: I'm actually really excited about the future. Like, everybody's like, just wait till they're teens. I spent 20 years of my life working with teens. Like, that's my forte. It was this this when they're young and can't communicate, that drove me nuts as dad. Like, that was the hardest part about being a dad was when they're too little to tell you what's hurting or what's making them feel bad or what's like, I was losing my mind. I punched a hole in the wall one day because it's like, oh, right. I felt so powerless, but I'm looking forward to the teen years just because it's like, I understand that age group and that it's gonna be exciting. Brent Dowlen [00:15:57]: My oldest is gonna make me old really quickly. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:15:59]: I tell people that the gray that you see in my hair is not because I'm old. It's because I have daughters. So I don't know that that's really the case, but I can joke about. So one of the things I wanted to talk to you about is you've got a great resource out there that you've developed over the last few years and called The Fallible Man and The Fallible Man podcast. And congratulations, you're just going to be putting out, or actually by the time that this goes out, you're going to have passed that 300th episode, which is amazing. So I guess I wanna go back in time and tell me the story of The Fallible Man because podcasting is not easy. It takes time. It takes a lot of time. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:16:38]: It takes a lot of effort. And you gotta be pretty passionate about the topic to be able to keep it going for so long. So talk to me about The Fallible Man. What made you decide that you wanted to jump into this and put all this blood, sweat, and tears into it for as long as you have to put all this content and information out there for the masses? Brent Dowlen [00:16:58]: You know, it's funny because I told this story many times. And there are still days I question my own story on this. It's like, is that really what was driving me at the time? So The Powell Man, we started in 2020. And it really started with I had the sense of urgency that I needed to start to impact people. I told you I have a background in ministry, and I left ministry several years ago now about 18. And but I grew up around it. My dad was a preacher. And so it been ingrained my whole life. Brent Dowlen [00:17:30]: I feel like I need to serve people and impact people in a positive way. It's why I got into youth ministry. And we had several female friends. We used to have about 14 people over every single week, 14 to 16, One night a week, all our friends would come up, just show up at our house. And we'd cook the main meal, and people would bring stuff. We kept pot pot pota kinda meal because it got too expensive because we were going out to a restaurant. It's this nice Italian place once a week, every week. And it just got too expensive for everybody, so we moved to my house. Brent Dowlen [00:17:58]: But I would listen to our female friends get frustrated about their boyfriends or their husbands. And I started becoming the translator for them. They'd be like, oh, he's doing this. I was like, that's not what's actually happening. You understand that. Right? They're like, no. And so I would start translating for these guys who usually weren't there and didn't really know how to translate what they were doing or what was actually happening to this young woman. And I actually had people prodding me to write a book for women about men. Brent Dowlen [00:18:28]: And I was like and this was before the term mansplaining became popular, but it's like all the warning lights went off. I'm like, nope. Nope. That's just gonna end badly. Right? So the years kept going and we had kids. And I started thinking about it because I have I have 7 nieces or no. 9. Nine nieces. Brent Dowlen [00:18:45]: Between the two sides of the family, I have 9 nieces. There's a lot of girls in my life. And I have some that are my on my side of the family because I'm the baby. My oldest brother's daughters are now all in their twenties. One of them is almost 30, and I've watched them grow up. Right? And I watch all these teenage girls I worked with, and I'm watching my younger nieces now. I'm looking at this like, how do I make an impact for them? And then my daughters came along. And I was like, how do I make an impact that can truly do something for them? And like a lot of dads, when I became a dad, I kinda started on this journey of self improvement because I was terrified I wasn't going to be able to set a good enough example for my kids. Brent Dowlen [00:19:25]: And so I started down this journey for myself and eventually it led me to it was like, well, that's what I can do, is I can help other men who are somewhere on that journey. And so part of it was this need to impact people in a positive way. And then how do I solve this other problem of how do I help young men, especially in a time where there are more and more men growing out without positive male role models in the home? For whatever reasons, no no judgments on that's not that's not my place. For whatever reason, there are a lot of young men growing up without positive male role models in the home. And I was on a forum just the other day on Reddit and I wanted to cry reading this post. And it's like, we have no one to show us how to be men because y'all have can't agree on what that even is at this point. What masculinity is supposed to look like. And I'm reading is like this was maybe 2 days ago. Brent Dowlen [00:20:16]: I was reading this forum. And it's like, this is why I'm doing this. Because I can't help everyone. But how can I reach the most people to encourage men who are on that journey to grow into their best selves, whether they had a good influence or they had a bad influence, there becomes time when you decide to do it for yourself? So how do I help those guys? And so I started my show and then I started having guests on to fill in the gaps that I couldn't necessarily talk about, but it started with my journey trying to become the best version of me. So that's my daughter c. And then, how can I help other men make that journey, so that one of these days, there are positive male role models influencing the next generation, the next generation because that's gonna affect my daughters and their children? Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:21:05]: So you've put out there 300 episodes. You've met a lot of people. And I'm sure that along the way, you've learned a lot, not only about yourself, but about what you were just talking about in regards to what men need right now. And some of that's subjective. I'm gonna be very honest about that because there's many people that have probably many different thoughts on what masculinity should be, ought to be, could be, etcetera. Talk to me about your biggest takeaways. Looking back at 300 episodes, looking back at 300 interviews, 300 conversations, and what's been the biggest takeaways for you that you think that all men need to know to be able to connect better either with themselves, with other men, and to be that better version of themselves that they want to be. Brent Dowlen [00:21:58]: You know, I wanted to be a place that's why I called it the fallible man. I wanted to be upfront that I was on a journey. I didn't ever wanna come across as the guy who had all the answers because that's an immediate turn off. Right? That that that's all crap. No one no one has all the answers. No one has it perfect. I'm very quick to share my failings with my audience because that's an incredibly important part of the journey for any of us. And I've wrestled with and reformed on this question so many times, Chris. Brent Dowlen [00:22:26]: Like, I am constantly at war with this question in my head, adjusting what I think is crucial, what I think is the ultimate, how do I get that down to really bite sized pieces for people. And I think where I'm at right now is this. All men were born for a purpose. You inherently have worth because you're you're a person. You're born, therefore, you have worth. But you are born for a purpose, and your mission is to find a way to that purpose. Because once men are very mission oriented and once you find what that purpose is for you, it clarifies your other choices. It gives you direction. Brent Dowlen [00:23:06]: It gives you meaning. And once you start to live in alignment with that, everything else just seems easier. But we all have a unique purpose. Right? Because we all are unique individuals with our own back stories, our own experiences in lives, the personalities, the people who have influenced us, make us all very unique in the way we deal with things, and the way we process emotions and thoughts and feelings. And so you uniquely have something to offer the world that is a great value. And for men, finding that purpose and trying to pull everything else into alignment with them, well, that is probably one of the most critical things they can do because once you find that, everything else gets easier. You gain so much clarity on the direction you wanna go with things. It makes decisions easier because it either falls in line with that or it doesn't. Brent Dowlen [00:23:53]: And men need a sense of direction and purpose to really flourish. I've had so many people, like, I go out of my way. You will not come to my podcast and find a bunch of guys thumping their chest and grunting and saying men's men men. Right? I'm a fairly, quote, unquote, stereotypically masculine guy. I ride a motorcycle. I shoot guns. I was in military briefly. I lift weights. Brent Dowlen [00:24:17]: I have a beard. I usually have a mohawk. I mean, I'm none of that is masculinity. None of it. That is not it. And so I rail against that on my podcast. I am interested in men who actually want to be men. And that looks there are a lot of common attributes, but it has nothing to do with the physicality. Brent Dowlen [00:24:34]: Yes. If you have a certain physicality, some people will take you more seriously. But I've had the privilege of knowing some elite elite soldiers over the years. I intermingled with a lot of special forces guys over the years. I had a navy seal who was cross training into another program in a different branch of military, and he was nothing to look at. Right? He wasn't a big guy. He wasn't all jacked. He didn't have this huge physical presence from his physicality, but he had a presence that was undeniable because of who he was and the confidence in which he carried himself. Brent Dowlen [00:25:07]: And that came from he had a purpose and a mission and a direction and he lived in alignment with that. It's who he was. So I think for a lot of men, just finding that purpose, and then I may be one of the first guys you'll hear say it is learning humility. If you find your purpose and start living in alignment with that and can embrace humility, because it takes strength to be humble. Humility is not a weakness. Humility comes from a place of strength. But if you can have the humility to go, I have room to grow. I don't have all the answers. Brent Dowlen [00:25:38]: Right. Then you can grow. Then you can live in alignment with that purpose and those beliefs and those ideals that you value. And you can live your best life because you have to get into that growth mindset of I'm here. I didn't hate who I was when I became a dad, but I looked at who I was and I went, what is the bar I wanna set for my children? I want them to see me make mistakes. I want them to see me own those mistakes. I want them to see me struggle and grow because I want them to know the journey is worthwhile. And so, yeah, finding your purpose as a man, I think is critical because it makes everything clearer. Brent Dowlen [00:26:12]: And then embracing that humility because not because you're weak, but because you're strong enough to go, I can be better. I can do more. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:26:19]: And what are some of the first steps that you would recommend that someone take to find that purpose for themselves? Brent Dowlen [00:26:26]: Hindsight is a huge blessing. I think it's actually a lot easier for guys who have a few more years than some younger guys. I think that's why it takes so long for some of us to find our purpose and direction because you need that hindsight. But you have to have enough hindsight. You have to have that 50,000 foot view sometimes. For a long time, I thought I was supposed to go into ministry, and I ran from it. Before I finally went into ministry, I ran from, I have my own Jonah story. But years later, looking back with that 50,000 foot view, it wasn't necessarily ministry I needed to be in. Brent Dowlen [00:26:56]: That was just the way I understood to express that need, that purpose for me. I have a gift in helping other people grow and rise, mentoring other people. And I see that because I look back over I started working when I was 16 years old. 44 now. I've had a wide array of jobs because I could never stay anywhere because I was bored with them. But everywhere I've ever gone, I always end up being a trainer or a teacher in the group. My last big company I worked for, I was the lead trainer for our entire division. Part of my job wasn't what I got to do full time, but it was part of my job. Brent Dowlen [00:27:27]: I wrote all of the documentation. I did all the onboarding. I trained all the new people. I went and set up new sites. The job I had before that, oh, I ended up training people. The job I had before that, totally different industry. I got all the new people with me because they trusted me to train them. And so as I started looking back, it's like, okay, no matter what I do, and I've also been a personal trainer, no matter what I do, it always comes back to working with people to grow in an area where they wanna grow. Brent Dowlen [00:27:55]: And so, and I can look back over years years years of my life now at 44 and go, wow. That's what it's been every place I've been. It doesn't matter what I do. That's where I end up. And it's like, okay. So maybe my talents and gifts and purpose all align with teaching people or helping people grow. Right? Because as a personal trainer, I love to be in a personal trainer because I was so excited for every half step forward for any of my clients. I relished in them hitting goals and overcoming things that were trying to get past. Brent Dowlen [00:28:25]: I specialized in working with people who are usually working around an injury or recovering from an injury, and I loved helping them gain that back. Right? Just to see them thrive. I trained so many people in the IT industry to watch them take better jobs, better positions after I trained them. And I was happy for all of them. I was never mad when they left because I had to train somebody else. I was thrilled that they got a better position for better pay. And so I think age gives you a lot of benefit when you have that. Now when you're younger in your twenties, you're still trying to figure out a lot of things. Brent Dowlen [00:28:55]: You're still experiencing life. You don't have that experience to look back over with that 50,000 foot view. But I would encourage people to look at it and go, okay. This is what I like to do, but what is it I truly love about doing that? Not so much, yeah, I'd like to do this or I like to do that. Yeah. But really dig deep in that. My as my mentor, Dai, told me, what's the why beneath the why beneath the why? Six times. That was the minimal rule. Brent Dowlen [00:29:24]: Six times. Why? Okay? Why? Right? Six times deep minimal with him. And in your twenties, that's what you really gotta do is, okay, I really love doing this. Like, I'm passionate about doing this, but why am I passionate about doing that? What aspect of this am I really truly passionate about? What really gets me out of bed? And then you can start to see once you get to that aspect, you can kinda zoom out a little bit and start to see what about that is it moving me? Okay. When I was younger, did that move me? Would I be interested in this because I would get to do that? It's not quite the experience take, but I it's probably the easiest direction to go in your younger years. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:30:01]: Now we always finish our interviews with what I like to call our fatherhood 5, where I ask you 5 more questions to delve deeper into you as a dad. Are you ready? Brent Dowlen [00:30:08]: Oh, I don't know, but we'll see. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:30:09]: In one word, what is fatherhood? Brent Dowlen [00:30:11]: Blessing. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:30:12]: When was the time that you finally felt like you succeeded in being a father to a daughter? Brent Dowlen [00:30:18]: I'll let you know when I get there. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:30:19]: If I was to talk to your daughters, how would they describe you as a dad? Brent Dowlen [00:30:23]: Present. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:30:23]: And 10 years from now, what do you want them to say? Brent Dowlen [00:30:25]: That we never had any question that dad was always there for us, that we were a priority. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:30:30]: Now, who inspires you to be a better dad? Brent Dowlen [00:30:33]: My father. Because my dad passed. It's almost been 3 years now. But to the day he died, I never once questioned. My father loved me, that I was a priority to him, that he always had my back. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:30:45]: Now you've given a lot of piece of advice today. A lot of things that you've learned along the way. Not only learned in your own journey, but learned from other men and other people. What's one piece of advice you'd wanna give to every dad? Brent Dowlen [00:30:56]: 20 years from now, your boss won't care about how many hours you worked. Your children will never ever ever forget that they were your priority. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:31:05]: Now if people want to find out more about you, more about the fallible man, where should they go?

In this episode of the Fallible Man podcast, host Brent delves into the often-overlooked yet powerful practice of being present. Brent argues that this simple yet transformative approach can significantly impact not only fatherhood but also personal development, relationships, career, and overall life efficiency. By being fully present—focused and attentive in every moment—you can achieve better outcomes in various aspects of your life. Brent also shares practical strategies for developing the skill of presence and invites listeners to connect on social media and sign up for his newsletter for exclusive content. Tune in to discover how being present can make you a better dad and the best version of yourself. Being present in all things can greatly enhance your quality of life and interactions. Here are five tips to help you stay present: 1. Practice Mindfulness: Regular mindfulness exercises, like meditation or deep breathing, can help train your mind to stay focused on the present moment. Start with a few minutes each day and gradually increase the time. 2. Engage Your Senses: Pay close attention to what you can see, hear, smell, taste, and touch in your current environment. Engaging your senses helps ground you in the here and now. 3. Limit Multitasking: Focus on one task at a time instead of juggling multiple activities. This not only improves the quality of your work but also helps you stay present and engaged in each activity. 4. Practice Active Listening: When interacting with others, give them your full attention. Avoid interrupting and make an effort to understand their perspective fully. This fosters deeper connections and keeps you present in the conversation. 5. Create Routine Check-Ins: Set reminders throughout the day to pause and assess whether you're fully engaged in what you're doing. Use these moments to take a deep breath and refocus on the present task or experience. Incorporating these practices into your daily life can help you develop a greater sense of presence and mindfulness.

Welcome to the Personal Development Trailblazers Podcast! In this episode, we dive into growing into a healthy man. My name is Brent and I am an entrepreneur mostly known for being a Men's Relationship & Personal Development Coach, the Host of The Fallible Man Podcast, a Speaker and an Event Coordinator. No matter what I have done in the many industries I have worked for over my lifetime I always ended up becoming a trainer for the company. It is a theme that repeats itself wherever I go. So I decided to embrace it and focus on helping people level up where they feel they need a hand. So I started a Book (which I still have not finished), which launched a Podcast and became a company, a conference and a life. Now I focus on helping Men live one choice better every single day. Helping them develop authentic masculinity and seek out their purpose. That is how you grow; 1 choice, 1 decision, 1 step better day by day. I have been married for almost 23 years and have 2 young daughters who are at the root of all I do and one of the great joys of my life. Daddy is probably the favorite of all the things I have been called in my life. Family is everything to me.

Fallible: capable of making mistakes or being erroneous. Brent hosts the Fallible Man Podcast to help men make the most of themselves and own up to their mistakes. With the Fallible Man, we discuss why he stays away from allowance but likes bribery; how to make sure you're making the time for your kids; and most of all, how and why to admit your "fallible" and what that means as a dad. ---------------------------------------------------------- Find more Dad Podcasts from A Dad's Path, a website for dads!
Being a dad is an amazing gift and massive responsibility all at the same time. It has been one of the greatest and most terrifying Aspects of my life. There is a lot to learn, a lot to know, and a lot you worry about. All before you even have a kid. The roller coster is just getting started at that point. In this episode of The Fallible Man podcast we dig in to somethings you probably don't know about being a dad and some details that really matter when it comes to being a good dad. We will talk about screen time, memories, confidence, courage, stuff and things, quality versus quantity and so much more. It doesn't matter if you are a new father, soon to be a father and this is fatherhood 101 or a seasoned dad, this list will have something for everyone about the greatest responsibility you will ever take on; it may not be dad university but you will learn some of the most important father roles.

The Fallible Man, also known as Brent, is a true gentleman who wants to continue to help others as he has done almost his entire life. Being a preacher's kid, he himself became a Youth Minister focusing on assisting teens who so desperately needed the guidance and father-like figure that Brent so happily offered. After working with so many, Brent realized that there was an immediate need for more positive male role models. Brent is a true individual who wants to help all those he can. Brent and his wife created The Fallible Man for his daughters and nieces so that they could see what a positive male should be. ISupport the show I believe in a world where we help others, lend a hand, an ear, a shoulder, and or time. As someone who walked this dark scary journey alone, I promised myself that I would due all that I can to help others find their inner light again. https://plus.acast.com/s/acontagiousmile.

Season 2, Episode 5: My name is Brent and I am the Host of The Fallible Man Podcast and a YouTuber. I have taught and lead my whole life. I am a preacher's kid and a former youth minister who has dedicated a large portion of his life to working with teens in some capacity. Over the years I have seen a growing need for positive male role models as the idea of masculinity and the value of men has been skewed. I started The Fallible Man because my wife and I have seen the need to affect men in a positive way. To encourage them and support them in their own personal journey's to become the men the can be. I started it for my daughter's and my nieces to help men to grow to be someone worthy of them one day. I have spoken to small groups and large audiences over the years as well as writing blogs, bulletins, copy and educational documentation. I have been married for 20 years and have 2 young daughters who are at the root of all I do. I want to encourage, inspire, empower, support and motivate men to take charge of their life by choosing to improve themselves for themselves. I don't think there is something wrong with them, we can all be better, I think men are just not supported to do so. https://www.thefallibleman.com/ ******************************************************************************************************* Thank you for taking time to listen to my podcast.

EPISODE OVERVIEW: Son of a domestic missionary, this week's guest talks about becoming a sociopath. How he could completely divide his emotions in any scenario and live two separate lives. By moving often while growing up and experiencing different things, a dichotomy in his life was being developed. Listen or watch now to see how the military, alcoholism, drug abuse, and suicidal tendencies lead him to rock bottom. More importantly though, how he found his way out, and we can too. All this and more in this week's episode of the Remarkable People Podcast, the David Brent Dowlen story!“One of the hardest paces to be is in the waiting time between the waves of life.” – David Brent Dowlen GUEST BIO: My name is Brent and I am the Host of The Fallible Man Podcast and a YouTuber.

Now he helps other people by using psychology of behavior change with the science of metabolism and the compassion of human connection, to create life-changing transformations.

Guest today is Brent Dowlen, the man behind The Fallible Man website and podcast.The Fallible Man is a lifestyle, it is about growing in every aspect of masculinity. Masculinity is built in to the fiber of every man and has gotten a bad reputation in recent years. Men, husbands, and fathers need their masculinity to guide them. Masculinity is not the overblown, over the top media glorified nonsense.GUEST LINK: http://thefallibleman.comSPONSORS:ROBB ORIGINALS: https://RobbOriginals.comTHE CALIFORNIA WINE CLUB: https://shrsl.com/27lqbBLUE COOLERS: https://shrsl.com/28ljfBETTERHASH: https://www.betterhash.net/?ref=65168CONNECT WITH ME:WEB: http://robbjarrett.comPODCAST: http://robbcast.comLINKEDIN: http://linkedin/in/robbjarrettYOUTUBE: https://bit.ly/3k75arkFACEBOOK: http://fb.me/robbjarrettpodcastTWITTER: http://twitter.com/robbjarrettINSTAGRAM: http://instagram.com/robbjarrettpodcastMINDS: http://minds.com/robbjarrettRUMBLE: http://instagram.com/robbjarrettpodcastLOCALS: https://locals.com/member/RobbJarrettODYSEE: http://minds.com/robbjarrett

Ready to Start? We already talked about being successful more successful this year. Feeling a little hesitation or confusion? My name is Brent and I Am the Fallible Man! And this is the Fallible Man Podcast, your home for all things Man, Husband and Father. We provide content to help men become the men they want to be. On today's Show: I want to share with you the 3 Habits that are ESSENTIAL to Develop in 2021 Intro thoughts: In Episode 1 we talked about 6 things to make 2021 your best year ever, so be sure and go back if you missed that episode. Today we are talking about habits that will aid in your plan to make 2021 more successful. We all know habits are everyday tendencies that are almost involuntary. You have likely heard that it takes 21 days to form a new habit, which may be true if you are just a monkey being taught to drink a glass of water after breakfast. Deeper research actually suggests that depending on the severity/extremity of the habit the average is closer to at least 66 days. The truth is depending on how much of a stretch of your normal routine it can take any where between 18 to 254 days, which is how they got the average of 66. I am always honest with you guys, so the truth is this, developing new lasting habits is a lot of work. It will take effort on your part and a lot of things are going to get in your way and make it harder. (Number 2 will help with that) If you have ever tried to develop good new habits like starting to exercise or lose weight, then you know. It often feels like everyone is trying to sabotage you, and sometimes they are. The reward is worth the effort, so here we go.

Welcome to the Fallible Man Podcast, your home for all things Man, Husband and Father. We provide content to help men become the men they want to be. My name is Brent and I Am the Fallible Man! On today's Show: we are talking about 2 different conversations you can have this year at your Christmas and New Year's parties. This show was inspired by an article I read every year to help me stay focused on where I am and where I am going. I hope you understand, it has affected me profoundly. Intro thoughts: We have all heard the old the old Cherokee tale of Two Wolves. A grandfather explains to his grandson that there are two wolves inside of each of us. 1 good and 1 evil, they are constantly at war with each other for control. When the boy ask which one when the grandfather simply says the one you feed. Duality is not a uncommon theme in nature, mythology or philosophy. There is a Yin to each yang, a balance, and even in the force there is a balance. Story: So here is how we will talk about this. It is the time of year where people are normally gathering with others. Office, Church, club and family Christmas and New Years parties normally abound. Maybe this year is different for you, but we will put that aside for now. When you go to that party you may run into people you haven't seen for a while, you will have conversations with people you only talk to around the holidays. 1 conversation 2 different people BUY FALLIBLE MAN MERCHENDISE!! - https://www.thefallibleman.com/shop For More Details about vid check out my website - https://www.thefallibleman.com For Inquires about Speaking for events email: Info@thefallibleman.com Support us on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/thefallibleman ------------------------------------Social Media----------------------------------------- Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/@THEFALLIBLEMAN/ Tik Tok - https://www.tiktok.com/@thefallibleman?lang=en Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/fallibleman Twitter - https://twitter.com/thefallibleman Pinterest – https://www.pinterest.com/thefallibleman/ Parler – https://parler.com/profile/thefallibleman/posts Instagram Clothing Account - https://www.instagram.com/@THEFALLIBLEMANDESIGNS Facebook Clothing Account - https://www.facebook.com/thefalliblemandesigns The Fallible Man Podcast – Everywhere you listen to podcast or https://thefallibleman.podbean.com/ ____________

We will talk about why people struggle with resolutions and if you stick around till the end 6 ways to be successful with your New Year's resolution. Intro thoughts: This part of the year both irks me and cracks me up. Being and avid gym nerd I tend to watch the yearly insanity of New Year's gym resolutions. It is an incredibly obnoxious process that happens every year, gym count on it. They run specials for the masses to come trim that holiday weight and start a journey to a healthier life. Most people get roped into a contract that they have to pay for even though they stop going to the gym by march or sooner. Free money for the gym with little wear on the equipment or facility.

I am not perfect, I don't have answers, but I am on a journey just like you, maybe we can help each other. On today's show we are talking about the all too common horrible advice of “Do what you love” We will talk about why this is a horrible idea. What you should do instead. Stick around to the end and get to the bottom line of why that is horrible advice. If you believe in what we are doing here and want to be a part of it head over to Patron directly or the link through my website. Our Supports have direct input on our content and what we are doing from here. I hear this all the time on TV, social media and in every bright eyed up and comer. Do what you love and you will never work a day in your life. Confucius said it first as far as I know but it has been parroted by millions of people throughout the years. It is actually more possible to make that work than ever before in history. We have found new and creative ways to monetize things that have never made money before. The internet era is amazing and it is still crap advice The first reason this is stupid advice is the fact that it does not account for age and time The Second reason this is stupid advice, the world is fickle. Markets change, platforms change and fads change. The third reason it is stupid advice, What happens when it fails, what now? Create a Plan – Yes, I want you to love your life and be happy. I also want you to have a roof over your head and Implement the plan – Find an employer (for now) that can use your Primary job skill and go to work for them. You will build expertise and hands on experience making you more valuable in this role. This is earned income Start building and grow your side hustle.

The Audio is a little wonky, still very listenable to. Had a problem with my recording that day. Welcome to the Fallible Man Podcast, your home for all things Man, Husband and Father. We provide content to help men become the men they want to be. My name is Brent and I Am the Fallible Man! I am not perfect, I don't have answers, but I am on a journey just like you, maybe we can help each other. On today's Show: How to Instantly Look More Confident. Everyone wants to portray confidence whether you are trying to impress someone socially or professionally. In general we want to appear confident because it also makes you safer; people are less likely to challenge someone who appears confident. Stick around to the end for a helpful tip on how to execute our suggestions more effectively. Body talking Points: SLOW, LANGUID MOVEMENTS: When you move slowly & comfortably you subtly communicate to other people that you do not feel scared & pressured. That is perceived as confidence. Big Fast Movements can also be confident, but you have to evaluate what you would do if intimidated and move away from that. Move at a pace that is self-determined over what than environment determines I.E. Pray movement versus Predator movement If you're getting something out of this be sure and like, subscribe and share this content with you friends ad if you're on YouTube hit the little Bell Icon BE COMFORTABLE TURNING Your BACK ON OTHERS: The person who ends the conversation & walks away usually the one with more power in a given situation. Let's note that this only works if you ”End” the conversation, not if you ”pout” or throw a fit and walk away. Showing your back communicates that you are not concerned or threatened by their presence – Go back to the prey predator scenario, lions and crocodiles don't worry about prey animals being all around them. But don't be a jerk either, this movement used incorrectly will communicate to people that you do not consider them valuable or worthy of your time. For Example when someone enters a room stand up head on, shake their hand and greet them. This conveys confidence whereas ignoring them makes you look bad. CONFIDENT PEOPLE CAN AFFORD TO HANDICAP THEMSELVES: You can do this by being more honest especially where you think it might set you back socially. Comfortably presenting what others would see as a vulnerability or fault nonchalantly makes you seem to not be concerned about how others view you. Don't over play this and throw it out as useless and out of context times. For Example: if you have a goofy or different hobby that you think other people might judge, you're often better off speaking about it with enthusiasm rather than downplaying it if it comes up or is asked about. EXTREME NON-Reactivity When we see people easily succumb to the emotion of a situation or people around them and react emotionally because of it, it makes them look unstable and easily manipulated. When we see people who are resilient & their demeanor is not affected by the emotional or environmental stimuli we see stability. Calm people who are not easily triggered are seen as more confident & capable. Whatever is coming at them that they can handle. Build up an internal calm so you are not always in constant reaction to the world.

On today's Show: 10 Pitfalls Every Man Should Avoid on his journey to be the best version of himself and achieve his goals and dreams. Stick around to the end for the most destructive pitfall of them all. Recorded Intro Intro thoughts: There is a lot to living in this world and a lot that distracts us from being who we are meant to be and achieving our goals. It is easy to get side tracked especially as the world seems to be more crowded with things that are designed to steel your attention. It is important to know what your foundation is (See Episode 1) so you have a solid base to build on, but it helps to recognize some common pitfalls that can really get in your way.

Welcome to the Fallible Man Podcast, your home for all things Man, Husband and Father. We provide content to help men become the men they want to be. My name is Brent and I Am the Fallible Man! Men should be dangerous in every way. I am not talking about being violent or physically aggressive towards anyone. Today we will discuss how men should be dangerous mentally, professionally and physically. Stick around to the end and we will talk about the most dangerous thing to men. Intro thoughts: Men should be dangerous in every way. Danger has very little to do with violence and is often confused with the idea of violence. I would never advocate for men to be violent unless there is no other options to protect those you are responsible for and too. Those situation are far and few between and you may be able to go your whole life without that kind of moment, if you are lucky. The world is dangerous though in many ways and unless you are dangerous too you will get eaten alive. The idea of a warrior mindset has been done to death and is really in accurate. We had a “mantra” we recited as a group in training “The strong survive, the weak fall by the wayside” because the idea was to become unbreakable. We conditioned long and hard so that no matter what we endured it was still a bearable situation. Likewise I have a training philosophy that includes the same mind set. When training for an OCR (as my regular listeners know I do) I train far heavier and tougher than anything I will encounter on the course. This is to compensate for the exhaustion of a prolonged event designed to break you down. It trains you mentally and Physically Men should be dangerous mentally In episode 7 we talked about the benefit of doing hard things – It builds Fortitude In episode 8 we talked about the value of that mental strength Have you ever heard of drown proofing? – That is this fun thing.. –for the purpose of teaching you to think in crap situations. The military does this idea of training a lot, to teach you to be mentally tough no matter what Becoming mentally tough and unbreakable makes you mentally dangerous, when you tame your mind to be this way then you are never at a loss in any situation Men should be professionally dangerous If you aren't the shark then you are the food – Be a shark, no complaints, no whining In your office or in your crew be “the Man” “the go getter” “the solutions guy” (pet peeve, everyone comes with problems, come with solutions) Be the one who will speak and not cower if you see an issue. (this can be dangerous to you) Men should be dangerous Physically Let's be honest with ourselves, most men still think they are everything they used to be so we don't worry because we were scrappy “fill in the blank” Ryan Michler over at the Order of Man likes to say “Protect, Provide, Preside” We cannot “protect” if we are out of shape and unhealthy and we can't really preside as setting the right example is part of that.

Welcome to the Fallible Man Podcast, your home for all things Man, Husband and Father. We provide content to help men become the men they want to be. My name is Brent and I Am the Fallible Man! I am imperfect, don't have all the answers and am just on a journey to be better every day, maybe you are too. On today's Show: We are going to talk about how Hollywood exaggerated troupes have impacted masculinity over the years. We will examine misconceptions fueled by money and how they impact young men. Stick around to the end and we will talk about the most damaging media for men. Intro thoughts: We all have an image in our head of who we want to be as we grow up and become healthy adults. Unfortunately the basis of these dreams frequently come from shady sources that give a false sense of what that life truly is. Theater works largely based on exaggeration, you strive to over amplify everything to make it more interesting and fantastic. Unfortunately they exaggerate some of the best, but a lot of the worst aspects of the characters and roles. The reality is they know you are not likely to dish out your hard earned cash for reality; even “reality” shows have little to nothing to do with reality. Body talking Points: The 12 archetypes and examples If you take all of these examples and take their personalities and put them on x100 you get what you see on screen. – This creates a variation of personality dysphoria Living as a Fairy tale. – All of these crazy exaggerated characters that Hollywood throws up creates a fairy tale much like women's magazines having a impact on you women's idea of reality Find mentors and heroes in the real world. Final thoughts: If you stayed around this long then we are going to talk about the most damaging thing to men and young men. That is porn. If Hollywood can skew our image of what men are and should be then how much more for something that is designed to feed our dopamine response.

I am not perfect and don't have all the answers, but I am on a journey and maybe you are too. On today's Show: We are taking questions that women have asked of men and trying to do our best to answer them. In doing research for this show I was amazed by some of the question I saw, and distilling it down to a few was definitely difficult. If you guys enjoy the show let me know and we may follow it I with a part 2. Stick around to the end and finally hear a guy talk about feelings! Intro thoughts: I hope you guys enjoy this, it was a pain to research. Women are really slow to tell a man what they really want to ask when dealing with strangers, and social media totally failed me on this one. No one would submit questions on social media platforms. Why do men stop trying once they are in a relationship: Evolutionary Testosterone decreases Because we move off the mating hunt and move towards being able to nurture. We also become complacent Do men really think of “nothing” Yes, there are times when men truly just don't think of anything That is also “occasionally” just to cover for the fact that men think about really random, nonsensical things, like: “I wonder if a Raccoon floats and would make a good pet?” DO men ever get catcalled – Yes and we think it is awesome, so we don't understand why it upsets some women Today's Sponsor @commonmanocr on Instagram Is peeing standing up fun? It seems like it would be DO guys really like women with less makeup or without more than a lot of make up . Or do you just say that to score points. Why do men hide their feelings or think it is weak to show emotions? Conditioning Final thoughts: Let me know if you want me to do a part two.

Welcome to the Fallible Man Podcast, your home for all things Man, Husband and Father. We provide content to help men become the men they want to be. My name is Brent and I Am the Fallible Man! On today's Show: we are going to talk about 10 Daddy Tips You want to Know even Before you are a Dad. This is a collection of tips I wish somebody had shared with me before my girls were born. Stick around to the end for a tip that will help save your marriage during this new adventure. Intro thoughts: Parenting is a multi-million-dollar industry, primarily because parenting is terrifying to all new or soon to be new parents. News flash, it is always terrifying, we just adapt to living with fear. I put out polls on all of my social media platforms including a men's group I am apart of with a large number of members asking for the one thing they wish they knew before becoming fathers. Not a single person replied. I am not sure if no one knows anything or people don't care, so instead of advice from the masses I researched the topic on the web. These are the top tips I found between articles and postings across the web weighed in by my own experiences. Body talking Points: Communication – They understand more than you think, only 7% of communication is words Self Care is Important -Sleep – make sacrifices for you each other, one of you needs to sleep Music for the win Co-Parenting – just like different back grounds effect Christmas, it will surely effect raising a kid Your social circle will shrink, single friends will diminish because they can't relate, not your fault You don't need all that crap Don't freak out if they develop at a different rate than other kids Helicopter parenting does not build healthy children Everyone is instantly and expert and will share their opinions on your parenting It will change you and your habits, preconceived notions on subjects and perspectives
Welcome to the Fallible Man Podcast, your home for all things Man, Husband and Father. We provide content to help men become the men they want to be. My name is Brent and I Am the Fallible Man! ---------------I was reviewing this and realized I said David instead of Daniel at least 2 or 3 times, Sorry about that ---------- On today's Show: We are going to talk about Royalty and our misconception of the idea. The idea of sovereignty and what it takes to be a king or a leader in general. Stay with us to the end and learn about the 3 traits you need to focus on to be King. Body talking Points: Misconceptions of Royalty, modern royalty the queen actually has little say. This is not new, “David in the lions den” Sovereignty - Complete independence and self-government. The revolutionary war and ourselves Leaders- Have the same qualities as Good Kings, all you must do is change the cloths Honor – defined as: adherence to what is right or to a conventional standard of conduct. “You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor.” Aristotle Integrity – 1 the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness. 2 the state of being whole and undivided. Integrity is the Jelly to this PB&J of attributes, Honor and Integrity are almost inseparable. To be King you must have both of these things or you will never be a good king. “Without integrity and honor, having everything means nothing.” Robin Sharma Humility – a modest or low view of one's importance – Counter culture. Final thoughts: Movies have crossed this barrier before like we discussed at the beginning. While it is the movies, there is some truth to it. Kings are traditionally male, but not every king is a Man. Shakespeare “Twelfthnight” - Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them. Your fate awaits you. You can be a King, greatness is in you if you foster it. It my be your friends, you co-workers or your family. Being King is a servant leader position, if you build these traits then you will have “subjects” they will flock to you. Rule wisely
