Handling Times of Crisis – S3E7 (Ft. Oliver Lollis)

2021-03-19T21:26:27+00:00

True character and integrity usually comes out in times of crisis. A lot of relationships and commitments begin from a place of comfort or abundance. We take on the unity, knowing that we are better together than when we’re apart. Though intentions are pure, hard times are sure to spoil the fun and invade on the good times. When that happens, the unity truly gets tested. To be clear, a crisis could be a range of things from the loss of a job to the sickness of a sibling, or family member. Of course, we hope and pray none of us [...]

We Need Self Defense – S3E6 (Ft. Scott Puckett)

2021-03-13T00:24:50+00:00

There are forces out there that would like to see you fail. Furthermore, there are forces that are purely evil and would like to see the world burn. With that being said, such forces only stop when they are met with opposition. Luckily a majority of these forces are stopped well before they reach our inner circle of peace. Whether it be a terrorist threat, a thwarted plan, or a major crisis adverted, the dangers are always out there. If we can agree on that, perhaps we can also agree that some threats can fall through the cracks. When that happens, [...]

Balancing Life and Business– S3E5 (Ft. Kenworth Reeves)

2021-03-06T00:18:32+00:00

How do we find clarity and learn to focus on what’s important? Life can be so convoluted at times. No matter how much you try to compartmentalize things, there always tends to be some “spillage.” The reality is, the more you try to balance, the more you have a chance of setting up conflicts. It’s easy for us men to get carried away with work. I know I tend to go overboard at times. Never the less, there we are, putting pen to paper and hitting the streets in search our next shot. But what is it all for? The irony [...]

Adjusting In Life And In Business – S3E4 (Ft. Timothy Cunningham)

2021-02-26T22:57:02+00:00

How do you react during times of chaos? When the pressure is on, and your team is being tested, will you be able to pivot and adjust? If the Pandemic has taught us anything, it’s that we must always be ready to pivot and adjust. It doesn’t have to be pretty. You just have to make the call and execute. You also have to do it quickly. Teamwork and communication are two things that really impact your ability to handle these stressful occurrences. After all, if your communication is on point, and the chemistry is good, is it really a stressful [...]

Finding Your One Voice – S3E3 (Ft. JDew)

2021-02-19T23:06:46+00:00

There is so much passion in the world these days. It doesn’t take long to find it. Take a look at the news or on social media. You’ll find a lot of voices shouting over each other, screaming to be heard. My question though is this… If everyone is shouting, then who’s listening? Few voices have been able to bubble past the clutter and find the resonance to stand the test of time. They’re voices that echo through history, imparting knowledge on generations to come. You may have heard this before: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men [...]

Building Holistic Habits – S3E2 (Ft. Dr. Raymond Nichols)

2021-02-13T01:11:54+00:00

I have a confession to make… I don’t take care of myself as well as I should. Don’t get me wrong. I do better than most. I stay hydrated, I have an active lifestyle, and I eat slightly healthier than average. (Haha) But let’s be honest... A lot of us suck at taking care of ourselves. Sure we may think we’re doing a good job. However, some would argue that we could do better. In this Episode of The Modern Man, we sit down with Dr. Raymond Nichols of AlignLife Pelham Falls. To say Dr. Ray is a Chiropractor would be [...]
