Are you pretending to be happy in your marriage? It's a common experience for the men we coach, they stay passive and trying to make her happy while all the while inside they are miserable. In this episode I talk about why this is a doomed approach if you want to ever feel confident and alive again, let alone feeling masculine and sexy and leading the attraction in your marriage.In our coaching, we help men get a powerful new mindset that empowers you to give, love and connect more deeply because you're finally doing that within yourself first. This mindset allows empathy, trust and connection to happen because you're confident in who you're being. We teach skills and knowledge that nobody ever teaches men when we're younger. Skills and knowledge that make you feel confident and in control even when chaos is going on around you. It's amazing what you can achieve when you make yourself a priority. Most men don't.   They are too busy taking care of everyone else.  Too busy minding the store and making the money.   They are focused on the "outside game" of winning life. But their "inside game" of confidence and clarity is suffering badly. You can only improve your inside game with other men. We would love to help you become more calm, more strong emotionally and more confident and happy in who you are as a man. Come and join us, either through 1-on-1 coaching with my colleague Dan Dore or me, or in our group coaching program with other amazing men who are travelling the same path as you right now in our Men's Live Coaching Roundtable. There's an amazing tribe of guys in this group with us, supporting and helping each other through this process of growth and self realization. https://goodguys2greatmen.com/goodguys2greatmen-live-coaching-roundtable/ If you're facing possible divorce, we have an online course which is specifically for you - Defuse the Divorce Bomb: https://mojopolis.thinkific.com/courses/HDDB-preview?ref=a53950 What if this next year everything changed for you? That's what we want for you brother, We love teaching men these tools - how to be better, how to know who you are, what you stand for, what you want and how to CREATE it in your life through our Masculine Confidence coaching programs.

Ever notice how most spray cleaners and detergents seem to be marketed straight out of the 1950s... and almost always to moms? Entrepreneur Sean Busch is on a mission to flip the script. Sean is a dad of two kids who LOVE to make messes, and he's the founder of Dad Mode, a new line of high-performance cleaning products designed specifically for dads. Sean joins us to talk about why it's important that dads meaningfully contribute to housekeeping, what “choreplay” means (and how it might just be the secret to more balance), and the potential risks and rewards of selling gendered products. Several of Adam's favorite recent episodes:Navigating Miscarriage and Grief as a Dad (Kelly Jean-Philippe)What Will Our Kids Be Saying About Us?

We spend so much time and energy worrying about what others think of us — when, in reality, it simply doesn't matter. You already have your own challenges and goals to focus on, and caring about others' opinions only drains energy from what truly deserves your attention. Of course, that's easier said than done. We're conditioned to seek approval, and breaking that habit takes conscious effort. In today's episode, you'll learn three of Mark's best-kept strategies for staying internally validated — and how he's learned to completely stop caring what anyone else thinks.

Even though today's world is a nightmare for our mental health, does modern medicine have the answer? For many patients, the answer is, "no," but there may be another way. For two thousand years, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been effectively treating anxiety, depression, insomnia, and other conditions using herbal medicine and other healing modalities. In her book, Chinese Medicine for the Mind: A Science-Backed Guide to Improving Mental Health with Traditional Chinese Medicine, Nina Cheng, founder of The Eastern Philosophy Chinese Medicine Company, accompanied by a team of renowned practitioners and scholars of Chinese medicine, share practical, accessible remedies and protocols you can use to improve your mental and emotional well-being. Supported by historical primary sources and modern clinical research, Nina's book offers and intro to TCM and its unique approach to mental health. Each chapter covers a common mental health condition–anxiety, depression, insomnia, ADHD, brain fog, and trauma–exploring how Chinese medicine has historically approached these conditions, describing common patterns associated with unique symptoms, and prescribing specific remedies you can access in your everyday life. For anyone who has struggled with their mental health or is looking to better understand TCM's approach to healing both the mind and body, this book offers natural, time-tested solutions.

Today's guest is Aleks Rybchinskiy, a truly gifted somatic therapist, Master CHEK practitioner, and co-founder of Primal Fusion Health. Aleks is a living example of what it means to be in harmony with your mind, body, and spirit—and in this conversation, he shares the blueprint for reclaiming your primal vitality in a modern world that often strips it away.We go deep into the power of breath, movement, cold exposure, and emotional integration, not as hacks but as sacred rituals rooted in lineage and wisdom. Aleks also breaks down how trauma is stored in the fascia, why movement and somatic work are essential to healing, and how working with sacred plants or extreme environments like ice baths can be potent catalysts when integrated responsibly.If you've ever felt disconnected from your body, overwhelmed by life, or out of sync with nature—this episode will serve as both a wake-up call and a roadmap back to wholeness.

How much laughter lives within your close male relationships? Continuing on Stephen's topic of smack talk, Anthony and JT lay out how they personally navigate their banter, being conscious to know the line, read the room, and follow up when joking around. While a well-timed jab may seem inconsequential, behind all smack talk is a deeper message: “I see you, I trust you, I'm with you.”LEARN MORE:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/

It helps her feel secure that you are who you say you are, allows you to check that she's not a catfish, and lets you assess whether she's even worth going on a date with. It also gives her a glimpse of how much of a champion you are, which helps build attraction before the date. Today's episode will teach you everything you need to know about video calls with women—how to set one up, what to say, and what to be aware of. After this episode, you'll have mastered the art of video calling with women.

There's a lot of talk about masculinity out there. Most of it's noise.In the dark, I discovered a version of masculinity that had nothing to prove, nothing to fight, and nothing to perform. Just strength. Stillness. Surrender. This episode is about how darkness stripped me down to the bones--and what I found underneath.I talk about the power of discipline without ego, devotion without force, and why surrender is one of the most misunderstood strengths a man can possess. If you're tired of performance-based masculinity, this one's a breath of fresh air.Cheers,  Traver

Historian Augustine Sedgewick became a father in the summer of 2017. At the time, media events like the Bill Cosby trial were publicly challenging ideals of masculinity and fatherhood. Motivated by care for his son, Sedgewick began to research the history of masculinity and the figure of the dad. His new book Fatherhood approaches the topic through historical examples, from figures like Aristotle and Henry VIII to the work of Sigmund Freud. In today's episode, Sedgewick tells NPR's Steve Inskeep that men – like women – face impossible standards as parents, but are less likely to talk about them.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

In this conversation, Ted explores the evolving concept of masculinity in contemporary society, discussing the cultural, social, and political influences that shape male identity. They highlight the challenges young men face in finding role models and the impact of social media on perceptions of masculinity. The discussion also touches on the political landscape, examining how different parties address or fail to address the needs of men today. Ultimately, the conversation seeks to understand the future of masculinity and the importance of community and support in navigating modern relationships. In this conversation, the speakers explore the evolving concept of masculinity, emphasizing the importance of social value and societal frameworks in defining what it means to be a man. They discuss the consequences of a lack of guidance for young men, the need for strong male role models, and the balance between strength and responsibility.TakeawaysThe left has largely undermined the idea of masculinity.Change is inevitable, but growth is optional.Young men often feel pressured to hold onto their youth.Human beings need something to aim for to motivate themselves.Social media influences perceptions of masculinity.There is a lack of viable role models for young men today.The Republican Party offers a traditional view of masculinity.Cultural narratives shape young men's aspirations.The absence of positive male role models creates a vacuum.Navigating modern relationships requires renegotiating traditional roles. There's an appetite for a new model of masculinity.Men must create social value to be considered valuable.Identities are socially constructed and validated.A lack of guidance can lead to self-destructive behavior in men.Men need frameworks to channel their natural capacities.Strength in men should not be feared but guided.The dynamics of masculinity change with societal safety.Men must find purpose in service to their communities.Young men should seek to solve problems in their environment.Community and individual responsibility are intertwined.Connect with Dr Dante BryantWebsite: dbryan30Instagram: a_southernmanFree eBook Here: Mastering Self-Development: Strategies of the New Masculine: https://rebrand.ly/m2ebook⚔️JOIN THE NOBLE KNIGHTS MASTERMIND⚔️https://themodernmanpodcast.com/thenobleknights

Co-Host Ayush Prakash (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/ayush) The 'generation gap' is nothing new. Boomers complained about how 'square' their parents were, and then Gen X complained about how lame their parents' music was. But with Gen Z it's a bit different. This generation is the first to grow up 'neuro-plastically connected to technology'. Those are the words of my first time guest Ayush Prakash, author of the new book called AI for Gen Z. So how exactly has the Internet Age shaped young adults? What's more, how will AI do that from now on? Ayush is actually a Gen Z'er, so he knows what he's talking about. He starts by talking about the '3 Rs' that will affect all of us going forward, but especially the youngest generation coming up. How do technology companies and their prioritization of profit really affect all of us in unexpected ways, particularly as men? What specifically has happened in just the last five short years to rob the human race of its humanity, let alone your masculinity? How is AI tricking us into accepting the computer as an authoritarian power (yes, really), and dragging us down to a less-human level of existence with it? Are you cheating on your partner if you get an AI girlfriend programmed to give you what you're missing from your IRL relationship? Is there really any correlation between intelligent learning models as we know them and the possibility of a 'Skynet'-like AGI? What does it even mean to be human--and masculine--a quarter of the way through the 21st century? And if we've lost something there already, how to we get it back?

This episode started with a bench press, outside a church before a father's day service. Yep. That actually happened. But it's not just about one pastor or one sermon, it's about the weight men keep being told to carry. In The Weight Was Never Yours, I respond to a Father's Day message built on fear, performance, and pressure, and explore how that kind of faith doesn't free men, it breaks them. This is a call to let go of the false scripts, the macho theater, and the fragile strength dressed up as godliness. If you've ever felt like manhood was a test you were failing, this episode is for you. There's a better way. A freer one. And it doesn't start with a bench press,it starts with honesty. If you're a dad, a partner, a man in the middle of unlearning, or even if you're just someone who's been affected by the weight men are told to carry:  I hope this gave you some language.  Or maybe just a little relief.  A crack in the armor where something softer can breathe. You don't have to perform your way into worth.  You don't have to lead like a soldier to be holy.  You don't have to carry it alone. If this resonated, there's more where that came from.  You can find other episodes of Clemenz With a “Z” wherever you listen to podcasts.  Or head over to my Substack for devotionals, reflections, and the kind of spiritual wrestling they never let us do in Sunday school.

We revisit one of the most impactful episodes from season 8, The Lost Boys of Higher Ed. Women have outnumbered men on college campuses for decades, but the divergence in postsecondary success has widened in recent years, and it is both a cause and symptom of the struggles of the modern man.

Sometimes monsters are real!   This week's episode is a foray into non-fiction, but no less scary for it. I'm talking to Pulitzer-winning Caroline Fraser about Murderland: Crime and Bloodlust in the Time of Serial Killers   This is no grotesque revelling in death and sadism,however. Murderland examines the extreme violence that plagued her native Pacific Northwest in the late 20th century – and posits a link with the environmental damage of heavy industry in the region.   It's a compelling argument, and a horribly fascinating book. I slip the jokes in where I can (mostly at BTK's expense), but this one is a chiller!   Enjoy!   Other books mentioned:   Praire Fires: The American Dreams of Laura Ingalls Wilder (2017), by Caroline Fraser God's Perfect Child: Living and Dying in the Christian Science Church (1999), by Caroline Fraser The Balkan Trilogy (1960), by Olivia Manning   Support Talking Scared on Patreon   Check out the Talking Scared Merch line – at VoidMerch   Come talk books on Bluesky @talkscaredpod.bsky.social on Instagram/Threads, or email direct to talkingscaredpod@gmail.com Learn more about your ad choices.

More dads are becoming lead parents. What does that mean for work? When we talk about parenting, the spotlight usually falls on mothers. In this week's episode of Hello Monday, we're shifting that focus, and talking about what it means to be a lead dad. Our guest is Paul Sullivan, journalist, author, and founder of The Company of Dads, a media platform and community for fathers who are primary caregivers. Paul shares his personal journey, from columnist at The New York Times to lead parent and now advocate for redefining fatherhood at work and at home. Paul and Jessi unpack: • What it means to be a lead dad and why more men are taking on caregiving roles • How gender roles and workplace expectations often clash • Why support systems for dads are essential, and still hard to find • The origin story of The Company of Dads • How to teach people how to treat you when you don't fit traditional molds • What employers can do to better support working parents, regardless of gender This conversation is thoughtful, timely, and packed with insight for anyone navigating work and family life. Whether you're a dad, a partner, a manager, or someone rethinking how caregiving shows up at work, this episode is for you. Join us for Hello Monday Office Hours, live on the LinkedIn News page this Wednesday at 3PM ET to continue the conversation.

Send us a Positive Review!Series Title: In-depth Exploration of Patriarchy & its Correlation to Violence & Abuse [Part VIIof X]In today's episode, Val & Nathan walk through the layered risk factors around spousal violence/abuse that married couples are exposed to when belonging to a formalized institutional patriarchal church. Reinforcement of male authority, inadequately trained clergy offering counseling services, isolation from external oversight/support, and tendencies to protect the male abusers (esp those with leadership callings) are all discussed. They also make recommendations for inviting a safer/healthier marriage theology and climate that will contribute to individual & marital flourishing. **Please note, Val & Nathan are not implying that abuse & violence are *inevitable* when couples hold a patriarchal worldview or belong to a formalized patriarchal religious institution--they are simply unpacking all of the heavily researched data pointing to heightened risk factors associated with patriarchy and violence/abuse.Referenced in this Episode: Associated Press - Seven years of sex abuse: How Mormon officials let it happenBell Hooks - The Will to Change; Men, Masculinity and Love Support the showListen, Share, Rate & Review EPISODES Friday Episodes Annual Subscription $89 Friday Episodes Monthly Subscription $10 Valerie's Support & Processing Groups Donate: ⁠Venmo or Patreon⁠ Visit our Website

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Three legendary figures reveal how fatherhood and family transformed their relationship with success and purpose. Matthew McConaughey shares the moment his relationship with Camila gave him courage to turn down millions in romantic comedies, leading to his Oscar-winning transformation, while confessing he wrote down 10 life goals at age 21 - including winning an Oscar before he was even acting. Kobe Bryant opens up about learning fundamentals after scoring zero points an entire summer at age 11, then using psychological warfare to elevate teammates and dominate opponents. Terry Crews delivers the most vulnerable story, describing his 30-year journey from an abused child in Flint to beating up his father at age 30, only to discover revenge solved nothing. Each man discovered that true strength comes not from individual dominance, but from the courage to serve something greater than themselves - whether through committed relationships, team excellence, or breaking generational cycles.Matthew's book GreenlightsMatthew's kids book Just BecauseKobe Bryant Dear BasketballTerry's book Manhood: How to Be a Better Man-or Just Live with OneTerry's audiobook Tough: My Journey to True PowerTerry's kids book Terry's CrewIn this episode you will learn:How writing down your goals creates an invisible contract with your subconscious that works for decadesWhy the fundamentals beat natural talent when you commit to daily practice over yearsHow committed relationships give you more courage and creativity in your career, not lessThe psychology behind using work ethic as a weapon to mentally break down competitionWhy revenge fantasies destroy your soul even when you get the payback you wantedFor more information go to https://www.lewishowes.com/1784For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Matthew McConaughey – greatness.lnk.to/1422SCKobe Bryant  – greatness.lnk.to/691SCTerry Crews – greatness.lnk.to/1258SC Get more from Lewis!
