1/6/2026
This episode marks a new chapter for the podcast, with a more honest, unfiltered approach to what it really takes to become a better man. We explore the idea that progress doesn’t always come from doing more, but from letting go of outdated identities, unhelpful routines, people-pleasing, and the constant chase for “what’s next”.

12/30/2025
This episode is a guided reflection on the year just gone and a challenge to stop drifting through life on autopilot. We dig into the decisions you avoided, the habits you kept out of comfort rather than conviction, and the identity that might be quietly holding you back.

In this episode, Smith digs into one of the biggest themes holding men back: living out of alignment with who they actually want to become. When your values, actions, and goals don’t match, the result is second-guessing, guilt, and a constant feeling of not being good enough. The good news? With clarity, courage, and a willingness to put in boundaries, you can start living congruently and stop letting fear or people-pleasing run the show.
