I know as I release this podcast, a lot of men are going to look at the title and immediately write it off. “A real man,” after all, “doesn’t care how he looks.” While it’s a phrase I hear quite often, it just isn’t true. Washington, Alexander the Great, Theodore Roosevelt and, more recently, Jordan Peterson (to name a few) are all men who knew the usefulness of their appearance. That, to me, is the power of being conscious of your style – not to peacock, but to perform. And, today, I’m joined by my friend and a man extremely qualified to talk about how to level up your style. His name is Aaron Marino of Alpha M and today, we talk about the functionality of style, how what you wear communicates to people who you are, how dressing well helps instill a sense of respect in yourself, and how improved style improves your life. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Being well-groomed A competitive world You’re personal brand Opportunity for improvement Taking the next step Dressing with purpose Identifying body type Stretching your budget Ask for assistance Assessing yourself Stay simple and classic Looking too young Decision fatigue Finding congruency Your best foot forward AARON MARINO My guest today is a longtime friend and supporter of Order of Man, Aaron Marino. I met Aaron years ago when I attended his men’s conference, StyleCon (which later became Menfluential) and have been able to get to know him, his background as a gym owner and, later, someone who would go on to help millions of men level up their style, appearance, and confidence. He’s got over 6,000,000 YouTube Subscribers and owns multiple businesses but it’s been a long road to get to this point. And, today we talk about that journey and why he knows style is a powerful tool in every man’s toolbelt. 30 DAYS TO BATTLE READY Gents, we now have nearly 10,000 men who have gone through the new (and free) Battle Ready program.

So many men are afraid to even talk about style. In my experience, they believe that it's just not that important when it comes to being a man or they don't want to be viewed as anything less than manly. I get it. I used to be the same way. That was until I understood the power of dressing well and leveling up your presence. Dressing well isn't about a well-tailored suit, fancy shoes, and overpriced jeans. It's about being deliberate and intentional about sharing with the world who you really are. My friend, Ryan Magin joins me today to talk about what role style plays in masculinity, why men are afraid to elevate their style, something he calls "enclothed cognition" and the "halo effect," and how to use your style to have more and be more. RYAN MAGIN Gentlemen, my guest today is my good friend, Ryan Magin.

I met Ryan three years ago as I was launching Order of Man and the StyleCon conference. I'll admit, I'm not one who is very good when it comes to what I wear and how I look. But, I've learned a ton from Ryan about the way you look has proven to not only increase confidence in yourself but confidence from others too. Ryan dresses well, he looks good, and his game is on-point (although I will say his style is very different than mine). But, that's the point he makes today. Is that in order to look and feel good, you have to find a style that works for you. And, that's exactly what I've seen him do over the last three years for himself as I've watched what he's done for himself, his business, and his clients. Guys, take notes, listen to this with an open mind, and learn how to use your style as another tool to get what you want.

Style, although it is so often overlooked, really is a critical component of helping you become a better man. More often that not, the way you look and the way you show up says a lot to other people about who you are. My guest today, Antonio Centeno with Real Men, Real Style, shares with us how important style is, the benefits of improving the way you look, what core components you should consider when improving your wardrobe, and how you can become a man of style. Antonio Centeno I initially came across Antonio’s work with Real Men, Real Style as I was considering launching Order of Man in early 2015. And since then, I’ve been able to build a relationship and friendship with him. This man knows a ton about style and fashion – and not just clothing – but the psychology of increasing your style, body language, manners and mannerisms, and just about anything else that will help you increase your overall presence in the world. He is the founder of Real Men, Real Style, like I previously mentioned, and has over 1,000,000 subscribers on his YouTube channel. We talk about it a little in the show but he’s got over 700 vidoes there and literally thousands of articles, videos, and courses that will help you understand how clothing fits into the conversation of masculinity. He is also the co-founder of Men’s StyleCon along with Aaron Marino with I Am Alpha M. We do talk a little about that during the show but it is definitely something you should consider attending if you really want to become a man of style.

Ted Ryce: How To Become A Successful Public Speaker Part 2 I’m back with a part 2 of how to become a successful speaker. Alan had some follow up questions so of course I obliged! Hey Ted,   Thanks for getting back to me. That is an awesome idea! So the questions I have include:   What skills do you need to work on daily to become a great public speaker? Do you have any courses or books you recommend?   How do you land your first public speaking gig? What should you charge, how do you charge as you get better?  How do you calculate speaking prices?   How do you prepare for a talk?    How can you create a public speaking conference or workshop with other speakers who can compliment your services and value you offer? How do you sell a conference to get a good turnout at your event?   How do you make yourself memorable to the audience you are speaking to? How do you convert public speaking audiences to your programs or services?    These are some of the questions I had off the top of my head with respect to become a speaker. I look forward to the podcast on this. Will you let me know when it will be released? I am looking to start speaking soon for free as leverage to promote my business and add value.    Keep up the great work!!   Thank You!   Question: What skills do you need to work on daily to become a great public speaker? Do you have any courses or books you recommend? Answer: I’ve already talked about Thomas Plummer’s Public Speaking Course, Toastmasters, and Improv Acting Classes. You should do a Google search for public speaking seminars in your area as well. Dale Carnegie has courses all around the country. I’ve also heard great things about Michael Port’s speaking seminar. Here are some resources to get you started: - You may not have heard of Roger but he’s helped the who’s who of celebrities. I watched the Tony Robbins Netflix documentary I Am Not Your Guru and he was doing the vocal warm ups found in this CD. - by Garr Reynolds - by Garr Reynolds - Nancy Duarte’s Ted Talk:   Question: How do you land your first public speaking gig? What should you charge, how do you charge as you get better?  How do you calculate speaking prices? Answer: I’ve done a few seminars and talks before but I’ll tell you how I landed my first speaking gig since I’ve been serious about speaking. I interviewed Aaron Marino of I Am Alpha M and after the talk I said I liked his message and thought he was a good guy. We continued talking and he told me about StyleCon and asked me to speak at it. The way I landed my first keynote was a bit different. I connected with a person who had been listening to my podcast. We ended up talking and I offered her some assistance on a problem she had. I never expected anything back. Then she said there was an event that she was a part of and they needed a speaker. She had been listening to the podcast and remembered that I wanted to do more public speaking. She connected me with the event planner and we spoke on the phone…and boom! I had my first paid keynote speech! Question: How do you prepare for a talk?  Answer: Great question! First, I ask the event planner a LOT of questions about the attendees and what their ideal outcome would be from my talk. Then, Gisele and I work to create a flow of the talk and she helps design a slide show to supplement the presentation. (A quick note about slides…the slides should augment your presentation. But it’s about you and the way to communicate with the audience. NOT the slides!) After we have the rough draft, I run through the talk over and over refining the flow of the talk as well as the slide presentation. I practice one or two times a day EVERY day leading up to my talk. And I do what it takes to be prepared. Practice, practice, practice! That’s the key! Lastly, I memorize the flow of the talk but I don’t memorize the talk. If you’re trying to remember the exact words then it will take you out of flow. And your audience can feel that. At the end of the day, it’s about creating an authentic connection. Not regurgitating content. I do my best to tell stories and entertain while delivering the best information I have. Question: How can you create a public speaking conference or workshop with other speakers who can compliment your services and value you offer? How do you sell a conference to get a good turnout at your event? That’s outside of my experience so far. I recommend that you connect with other speakers and on put something together locally. Promote it on social media and through your content beforehand to see if anyone is interested. Question: How do you make yourself memorable to the audience you are speaking to? How do you convert public speaking audiences to your programs or services?  The answer to your first question is to strive to master the art of public speaking. Be a student of the art and read all the books and articles you can. And attend all the seminars and courses you can. Most importantly: get out there and speak! The answer to your seconds question is a little different. I know what you’re asking but I want to tell you this. You cannot “convert” anyone. Marketing is becoming less and less effective. I know you didn’t mean it like that but I wanted to say it out loud. People are smart and you can’t convert them or change their mind. THEY change their minds based on what you have to offer. What you CAN do is to deliver the best information you have in the most powerful way possible. After that, you offer the opportunity to work with you. Ask them to come and see you at the back of the room if they’d like to talk more. Then you offer what you have. And the best “sales” advice I’ve ever received is from Zig Ziglar in his Secrets of Closing the Sale. You can listen to it for free on Youtube: Conclusion At the end of the day, becoming a successful public speaker is like anything else. It requires drive, discipline, developing the skills, time and hard work! I hope this serves you well and puts you on the right path towards speaking success!

I have an amazing show for you today. [remember to Subscribe Here] I'm joined by a man I can now call a friend, and one that makes our roles as men better because he's here to help us make smart moves and go boldly into that good night. My guest today is Ryan Michler of ORDER OF MAN. Through his site, podcast, and personal missions, Ryan is driven to take back what it means to be a man, and he wants us all to learn together – from the best men the world has to offer. From interviews like this one, to personal stories of struggle and success, everyone in the Order of Man takes with him a piece of the lessons to apply in his life. He grew up without a permanent father figure in his life, missing out on some of the wholesome ‘fatherly” moments you might see on TV – playing catch, working on a car together, building a treehouse, etc. He and I share the same sentiment that there is, in fact, a difference between being a male and being a man, and we're both working to help make men better. As a father, he takes his commitments and agreements to heart, and works to build solid foundations and principles with and for his kids. Ryan and I got the chance to meet and trade stories in person in mid-March at StyleCon 2016 in Atlanta, and I knew I wanted to share his wisdom with you, my listeners. Definitely make your way to orderofman.com and discover more about his mission, his story, and his wisdom, including the Iron Council – a division dedicated to helping men develop deeper, more meaning full relationships with their spouses, families, and themselves. It's about setting fire to the possibilities around you. Okay, quick note on the audio here, guys. The first 2 minutes of audio is completely unusable so that's why it's missing. The internet can be a fickle beast sometimes and the audio was so choppy through Skype, it has to be thrown out. Let's open the interview by jumping right into Ryan's story and his take on what he sees going on in society – and WHY he started Order of Man.

This episode discusses both the mechanics of dressing well while carrying a firearm, along with the reasons I personally choose to carry a weapon. I understand that this is a controversial subject and one that can lead to a heated discussion in the comments. I don't need to defend myself. I may engage in a few comments to clarify some confusion, but I have no interest in engaging in an online battle about gun control. As part of today's episode I brought on Antonio Centeno of Real Men Real Style. Antonio is a former officer of the USMC and the resident style author for the Art of Manliness. He runs a popular and helpful YouTube channel and is also one of the founders of StyleCon. See the show notes here: http://masculine-style.com/podcast-episode-11-dressing-the-armed-man/
