Is It Dangerous to Be a Man? Why Masculinity Gets Criticized Instead of CelebratedA coal miner shows up to his son's basketball game still covered in soot. He rushed straight from work to keep his promise. The photo goes viral — but not for the reason you'd think.Instead of celebrating his dedication, the internet tears him apart. "Performative masculinity." "Virtue signaling." "He could've washed his face."And that's when it hit us: No matter what a man does, someone will find a way to criticize it.In this powerful conversation, Chuck, Faisal, and Ari unpack one of the most uncomfortable truths of modern masculinity: being a man feels like walking through a minefield of judgment, shame, and cancel culture.In this episode, we explore:Why showing up as yourself can get you canceledThe difference between how masculine and feminine energy "destroys" — and why it mattersHow growing up in the feminist era made men feel guilty for being menWhy "mansplaining" and similar terms are designed to disempowerThe schoolyard mentality of men vs. women hatred — and how to rise above itWhat happens when you own your flaws instead of apologizing for themHow to develop thick skin in a world that loves tearing people downWhy empowering men doesn't come at women's expenseThe truth? When men feel disempowered, nobody wins. Not men. Not women. Not society.This isn't about playing victim. It's about standing up, owning who you are (flaws included), and refusing to collapse under criticism. It's about building connection instead of division.Whether you're tired of walking on eggshells, struggling with shame about your masculinity, or just trying to figure out how to be a good man in a world that constantly tells you you're doing it wrong — this episode is for you.It's time to stop apologizing for being a man.Like.

In today's episode, I'm talking about one intentional breath and why it was MY first step toward emotional healing. Back in October 2020, life felt like pure chaos. The ranch workload was heavier than ever, and I didn't realize the toll it was taking on me until things finally slowed down. That's when the anxiety, chest tightness, and overwhelm hit HARD. Out of desperation, I tried one deep, intentional breath (a big inhale and a long, slow exhale), and to my surprise, the tension began to release! That tiny act showed me I could actually shift how I felt right there in the moment. Taking one intentional breath can be calming, healing, and transformational. I'd love to hear if you try this in your everyday life, and how you feel afterward!In this episode, I cover:What led me to discover intentional breathing as a first step toward healingWhy our breath is the one area we CAN control + why this mattersHow intentional breathing affects the nervous system & other parts of the bodyLong-term benefits of practicing breathwork regularlySimple moments when you can pause and use intentional breathingSome easy breathing tools & exercises you can try right away Make sure to hit subscribe/follow so you never miss an episode!

GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro have become household names, celebrated as breakthrough treatments for weight loss and obesity. But while headlines showcase dramatic before-and-after photos and promises of rapid transformation, when we step beyond the marketing, a more nuanced reality comes to light.In this candid conversation, Dr. Mark Cucuzzella, a family medicine physician, and Dr. Tro Kalayjian, board-certified in internal and obesity medicine, draw on decades of clinical experience to examine where GLP-1s truly shine, where they fall short, and why the foundation for lasting health can't come from a prescription alone.They make the case for integrating GLP-1s into a comprehensive care plan, one that addresses nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress. Without these pillars, patients face higher risks of side effects, reduced long-term benefits, and the all-too-common rebound weight gain.In this interview, you'll learn:Which patients benefit most from GLP-1 therapy (and which may not)How “medication stewardship” ensures safe, responsible useWhy starting at the lowest effective dose and tapering mattersHow lifestyle-first programs can match or exceed drug results at a fraction of the costDrs. Cucuzzella and Kalayjian remind us that true success lies in restoring metabolic health and building habits that last long after the injection ends. GLP-1 medications can be powerful allies, but they're not a silver bullet. Without a foundation of nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress management, they risk becoming just another short-term fix.Expert Featured:Dr. Mark CucuzzellaWebsite: https://www.drmarksdesk.com/Dr. Tro KalayjianWebsite: https://toward.health/IG: https://www.instagram.com/doctortro/X: https://x.com/DoctorTroResources Mentioned:TOWARD: a metabolic intervention that improves addiction and binge eating symptomshttps://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyt.2025.1612551CMEs Mentioned:Managing Major Mental Illness with Dietary Change: The New Science of Hopehttps://www.mycme.com/courses/managing-major-mental-illness-with-dietary-change-9616Brain Energy: The Metabolic Theory of Mental Illnesshttps://www.mycme.com/courses/brain-energy-the-metabolic-theory-of-mental-illness-9615Follow our channel for more information and education from Bret Scher, MD, FACC, including interviews with leading experts in Metabolic Psychiatry.Learn more about metabolic psychiatry and find helpful resources at https://metabolicmind.org/About us:Metabolic Mind is a non-profit initiative of Baszucki Group working to transform the study and treatment of mental disorders by exploring the connection between metabolism and brain health.
