SMP EP162: Jeff Friend - Why Men Need To Be Challenged
“I was in a space, a headspace of, not knowing if, I would go to sleep and wake up completely paralyzed.”
Imagine you have only four days left to live. What thoughts would race through your mind? How would you feel about the people closest to you? Think about the moments you’d cling to, and how deeply you’d cherish them, knowing time is slipping away. We often let days go by without reflecting on their fleeting nature, but what if every day was truly precious?
Picture this: a sudden health crisis—a deep chest infection that triggers an unexpected autoimmune disease, leaving them paralyzed from head to toe. This is Geon Beray Syndrome (GBS), a condition so severe that the heart and lungs can stop functioning at any moment. Imagine the fear of not knowing if you'll wake up the next day, completely paralyzed, teetering on the edge of life.
Jeff Friend is the creator of "60 Days to Live," a program designed to help people foster habits that can transform their lives. Whether it’s three weeks, 30 days, or 60 days, the key is in intentionally making changes that could alter the course of your life. Our guest faced a daily reality of uncertainty, where each night could be the last, yet found that even in those moments, it was easy to slip into old patterns. The lesson? Don’t wait for a crisis to treat every day like it’s a gift.
How does facing life's biggest challenges head-on can inspire growth and resilience. It’s a reminder to do hard things on purpose and to live with intention, not fear.

SMP EP161: BILLOU - The Importance Of Confidentiality
Have you ever shared something in confidence only to have it betrayed? What does it mean to truly be a man of integrity?
Trust seems to be in short supply, maintaining confidentiality is more crucial than ever. Whether it’s in business, personal relationships, or within a close circle of friends, the ability to keep a secret is a hallmark of a truly masculine man. But how often do we see men falter in this area, succumbing to the temptation to gossip or share what should remain private?
If you want to be part of a circle of high-value men—men who are achieving, thriving, and leading—you need to be someone they can trust.

TTLR EP604: Jeremy Van Wert - The Power Of Controversy In Thought Leadership
“People are waking up to the idea that their lives feel so flat. They’re looking for a way to get in touch with their spirit faster.”
What happens when the most controversial ideas become the key to unlocking your full potential? Could exploring the edges of thought leadership lead to breakthroughs in both business and personal growth? As thought leaders and entrepreneurs, many of us find ourselves stuck in a never-ending cycle of productivity, constantly striving for success while neglecting our well-being. Some conventional paths often feel limiting, and exploring unconventional ideas can offer the clarity and direction needed to achieve your highest potential.
Pushing the boundaries of what's considered "acceptable" thought can lead to significant personal and professional breakthroughs. We challenge the status quo by discussing the role of psychedelic medicine in expanding the mind and enhancing creativity, mindfulness, and emotional healing. It’s not just about exploring new ideas—it's about finding practical tools that can help you elevate your life and business to new heights.
Psychedelic medicine is a therapeutic tool, not just for overcoming trauma and mental health challenges but also for expanding consciousness and unlocking greater potential. But there’s a lot of stigma around psychedelics. Why are they so controversial? Why are so many people attracted to psychedelics as a form of therapy? A huge impact that this medicine can have on helping people move beyond burnout, break through their mental blocks, and live the highest version of themselves.
Jeremy Van Wert is a licensed therapist and CEO of a nonprofit organization who has worked extensively in the realms of therapy, marriage, family assistance, and mental health. Jeremy's unique approach combines psychedelic therapy with practical tools to help individuals heal, grow, and achieve their fullest potential in both life and business. His personal journey from burnout to fulfillment informs the systems he's developed to assist others in avoiding the same pitfalls.

SMP EP159: Paul Bauer - The Principles Of Positive Dominant Masculinity
What is the one piece of advice you wish you had known when you were 18? How could that knowledge have changed the course of your life? Navigating adulthood often feels like venturing into uncharted waters.
Many young men grow up without learning essential life lessons that are crucial for success. For instance, financial literacy often isn't prioritized, leaving young men unprepared to manage money effectively, build wealth, or avoid debt traps. Similarly, relationship management—whether personal or professional—tends to be overlooked, yet it is vital for fostering healthy connections and avoiding emotional burnout.
A good mentor can share life lessons, guide personal development, and provide insights that may take years to learn on one’s own. These mentors help young men take control of their narratives by offering the wisdom and tools needed to forge their paths, make informed decisions, and ultimately shape a life aligned with their values and ambitions.
If you’re ready to take control of your future and live life on your own terms, grab a copy of Paul Bower’s book, "Everything I Wish I Knew When I Was 18," and start building a life you’re proud of.

SMP EP150 Billou & Arpa - Status
"Success is defines by doing something so well that other men will seek you out and pay you respect... Doing something so well that other men will seek you out."
Men chase success and how does it impact their status? Why do some men naturally rise to leadership positions while others shy away? Could it all boil down to a concept as elusive as “status”? What does it really mean to be a high-status man in today's world? Why does status matters so much in leadership and relationships? What does status mean for men and women, and how it shapes our interactions and societal roles?
Women often gain status through their problems, with higher status often linked to bigger challenges. This is a stark contrast to how status is perceived among men. For men, status is synonymous with success. Men are drawn to those who display their achievements prominently, whether it’s through wealth, leadership, or skill in various fields. The importance of focusing on personal success to naturally elevate status among peers. Be strategic and intelligent when defining and achieving success.
The critical advice for younger men is to prioritize success - developing their mind, muscle, and financial stability. This approach not only improves personal status but also attracts the right kind of partner. Women should be considered a side hustle, not a full-time job.

SMP EP152: Adam Larson - The National Widower's Organization - You Don't Have To Go Through It Alone
"So here, six and a half years later, I’m a better person. And I’ve grown as a human being. I’ve done a lot of work, I put the time in. I found a place to put my feet down, I found a place to stand up, I found some solid ground to put my feet on and I found a community to connect with.”
Have you ever felt completely lost and alone after a devastating loss? How do you even begin to pick up the pieces? Do you know how men cope with the immense grief of losing a spouse? How do they navigate the overwhelming responsibilities of single parenthood while dealing with their own loss?
Many of us have faced or know someone who has faced the heart-wrenching experience of losing a loved one. Many men struggle with grief, feeling like they have to shoulder the burden alone. Grief is universal, but society often overlooks male grief, leaving men without the support they need during some of the toughest times in their lives.
Adam Larson is a dedicated advocate and board member of the National Widowers Organization. He shares his personal journey of navigating life after the sudden loss of his wife and how he found support through the National Widowers Organization, and discussing the importance of acknowledging male grief, finding support, and the different ways men cope with loss.
If you or someone you know is struggling with grief, remember, you're not alone. Reach out to the National Widowers Organization for support and resources. Visit their website, join a webinar, or connect with others who understand what you're going through. It's okay to grieve, and it's okay to seek help.

TTLR EP597: TL Nuggets #173 - Pressure Is A Lie!
“If you allow yourself to appreciate and understand and accept and embrace that sales service, that sales is love and that you and your business are a service men. A service woman. A man of love, a woman of love. Sales is the way to allow you to express that love. Because without selling something to someone. You're not really able to serve.”
Are you running a business but find yourself dreading the sales process? It's time to change your perspective. In this episode, we're discussing why sales aren't just necessary—they're vital to the success of your business. More importantly, sales offer a unique opportunity to connect with others, contribute to their lives, and serve them in a meaningful way.
Learning the concept that sales are not just a transaction, but a powerful opportunity to connect, serve, and transform lives. Whether you're a coach, consultant, thought leader, or entrepreneur, you've probably faced the anxiety of selling and the fear of being too pushy. But what if the key to overcoming that fear is simply shifting your perspective?
If you're scared of sales, the key is to shift your focus. Stop worrying about how you'll be perceived and start thinking about how you can best serve your potential clients. This mindset shift will not only make sales less intimidating but also more rewarding.
