Episode 38: Why Giving Back Matters

Giving back isn’t just about helping others, it changes you too. In this episode, we talk about the importance of giving back and being part of something bigger than yourself. With Matt participating in Dancing For Special Stars, we get into what the experience has been like, what it’s taught him, and why more people should find ways to get involved in their communities. We also break down why giving back is often overlooked, how it impacts your perspective, and how even small actions can make a real difference. Because sometimes the best way to move forward in your own life is to show up for someone else. LINK TO DONATE: https://fundraise.givesmart.com/vf/26DFSSGF/Fundraiser

he more you think, the more stuck you get. In this episode, we talk about overthinking — what it looks like, why it happens, and how it keeps people from taking action. We break down the difference between thinking and doing, how your mind can make things bigger than they are, and what actually helps you get out of your head. Because most people don’t need more answers — they need to move.

Episode 35: How do you know if someone in your life is good for you?

How do you know if someone is good for you? We talk red flags, boundaries, and the hard truth about keeping people in your life just because you don’t want to be alone. Not everyone is meant to grow with you, and that’s okay.

Episode 34: Where Did You Learn How To Be a Man?

In this episode, we talk about where our ideas of masculinity actually come from. Growing up, most of us learn what it means to be a man by watching the people around us — fathers, friends, mentors, and sometimes the wrong influences. Some of those lessons help shape us in good ways, and others we have to unlearn. We talk about the men who influenced us, how addiction, incarceration, and recovery challenged our understanding of masculinity, and what being a man means to us today. Because becoming a man isn’t about pretending to be strong — it’s about learning responsibility, honesty, and growth.
