I just watched Louis Theroux's "Inside The Manosphere" documentary on Netflix.
As someone who's spent 30+ years teaching character development to men and boys, I was disturbed - but not surprised.
Here's what the documentary reveals about the crisis facing young men - and what they actually need i...
Most men are living their lives on a rollercoaster of "feeling like it."
One day, you wake up at 5:00 AM, hit the gym, crush your tasks at the office, and come home feeling like a king. You’re motivated. You’re "on." But then, Tuesday hits. You stayed up late, the rain is hitting the window, and ...

Nutrition is always a subject that has many different points of view and people focus on their own food intake for many different reasons.Â
Gandhi recognised the mastery of palate as the most important factor in opposing the British Empire. He considered it the heart...

Many older guys struggle with their health.
Just recently, I have had men in their 40s and 50s contact me with potentially serious health conditions.Â
It often seemingly comes out of nowhere, no buildup, no major warning but of course there were warnings but the pace...
Resentment is something that comes up a lot in my coaching clients.Â
