2023-04-15T03:50:04+00:00

The fastest way to grow is through the experience of others. I honestly wish I took this reality to heart when I was younger. Instead, I had to learn a lot of lessons the hard way. It wasn't until I started leaning into the power of books(and podcasts) that I finally got ahead in life.  When it comes to podcasts, feel free to learn everything there is to know about being a modern man below: Outside of podcasting, I credit my growth and current level in life wholeheartedly to the books I've read and the lessons they've taught me.

Sometimes We Don’t Realize Our Boat Is Sinking Until The Water Is Too High To Scoop Out…

2022-09-10T00:45:10+00:00

That was my experience at the age of 23 when an Ulcerative Colitis flare-up landed me in the hospital for almost 15 days. About a year prior to that I was diagnosed with UC, which is an autoimmune disease where the large intestine gets inflamed and doesn’t break down food like it’s supposed to. I let a string of bad habits spiral out of control while I struggled to adjust and embrace my current situation. I was fresh out of college, working a job I hated, feeling stuck at home with my parents, and seeing no real direction for the life [...]

Ways to Combat Addiction – S3E9 (Ft. David Murray)

2021-04-02T22:21:16+00:00

I’ve said it before… The Modern Man does not work without vulnerability. If we’re all so focused on pretending we have everything figured out, then where do we find room to grow? Today’s episode is, in my opinion, the prime example of what it means to build strong meaningful relationships. We have so many followers on social, countless contacts in our phones, and more acquaintances than we know what to do with. Unfortunately, when we hit our darkest days, we find ourselves at a loss of who to call. I know so many of you reading this have personal struggles that [...]

Pushing Forward After Loss – S3E8 (Ft. Jeremy Krauze)

2021-03-26T20:29:14+00:00

There is often a void that gets left behind when the ones we love are no longer with us. Sometimes the hole can be so deep we drown under the pressure of it all. How can we possibly move on? I’ll be the first to say how important the grieving process is. How ever you choose to mourn is up to you. It’s also necessary for our health and the honor of the relationship we once had. With that being said, we still owe it to those who have passed to live a life worth sharing with them when we see [...]
