The World is Getting Harder — Here’s How Men Must Respond | Chuck Holton

Manlihood

The world is getting harder — not softer — and most men are not ready for what’s coming.
Combat veteran and war correspondent Chuck Holton has seen the collapse of civilizations up close — in Burma, Ukraine, Israel, and beyond — and in this conversation he lays out exactly how men must respond if they want to protect their families, build resilient communities, and live with purpose in a culture that is falling apart.

In this episode:

• Why “discipline is a mental muscle” — and how to build it

• Why comfort, fear, and pride lead to bad decisions

• The collapse of community — and how men rebuild it

• What real courage looks like under fire

• How to become the man others rely on in crisis

This is a gut-check for every man who refuses to live soft.
