Don’t feel like the man you’re supposed to be? Every day, we see men (who want to do - and be better) — • Avoid responsibility… • Self-destruct at crucial moments… • Lose themselves and withdraw from society… Not because they aren’t sensitive, “alpha,” or productive enough… But rather - because they aren’t clear on what it means to be men anymore. We watch boys live in men’s bodies, seeking instant gratification and creating chaos wherever they go. Why? Because they don’t have a firm foundation of who they are as men. 70% of us (men) have NO loved ones to reach out to for help, and then when we embrace our masculinity, we’re labeled as “toxic”... But here’s the truth: When we lose our masculine identity— which roots us in taking responsibility—we’re tempted to act “toxic!” And without masculine men, research proves that families, businesses, and society suffer. To be the man you’re capable of being, you HAVE to know who you truly are. So if you’re a husband, father, brother, or son who struggles with embracing your masculinity, living with faith based clarity, and knowing what your unique purpose is - then listen up. Our podcast is designed to help you embrace responsibility in your life and reclaim your God-given identity as a man. How? Your hosts, Dr. Andy Garrett and Pastor Eric Heard, combine nearly 20 years of clinical experience with over 45 years of pastoral experience… Together, they clock in over six decades of dedicated work on masculinity, men’s issues, and male identity. This podcast combines a unique blend of Scripture, cutting-edge research, and deep psychology work to help you establish and affirm your masculinity.
