182: Setting Your Health Goals for 2026

In today’s episode, we talk about why most health goals fail before the year even starts—and how to avoid that trap going into 2026. This isn’t about extreme resolutions or perfect plans. It’s about clarity, honesty, and choosing standards you can actually uphold.   I break down how to assess where your health truly stands right now, what levers matter most, and how to set goals that align with your role as a husband, father, and man. Sustainable progress beats short-term motivation every time.   At the end of the day, your health isn’t a side project. It’s the foundation everything else is built on.

181: Enjoying Christmas

In today’s episode, we talk about why Christmas isn’t meant to be remembered by what we receive, but by who we are with and what we repeat year after year. Gifts fade. Toys break. But traditions anchor families and shape memories that last a lifetime.   I share what my most memorable Christmas gift was—and why, looking back, it pales in comparison to the traditions that surrounded it. The moments, the routines, the presence. Those are the things that stuck. Those are the things I’m intentionally carrying forward with my own family.   At the end of the day, Christmas isn’t about what ends up under the tree. It’s about what you build around it.   If you want high-quality men’s gear, leather goods, whiskey accessories, and curated gifts, check out Vintage Gentlemen.

180: Get Off Your Phone Around Your Kids

In today’s episode, we talk about the uncomfortable truth most men don’t want to admit: our kids are watching how we use our phones… and they’re learning from us. If you want to raise present, attentive, grounded children, you have to model that in your own life.   I break down why this matters, how easy it is to justify our distractions, and what it looks like to reclaim your attention as a father, a husband, and a man. Your family deserves the focused version of you—not the endlessly scrolling one.   At the end of the day, you’re not just managing your own habits. You’re shaping theirs.   Vintage Gentlemen: Upgrade your everyday carry, sharpen your style, and support a small American business. Use code DRJACKSON20 at checkout.

179: What Are Your Momentum Killers?

In this episode, we talk about identifying the things in your life that quietly kill your momentum. Not the generic habits you see online — your unique momentum killers. The small patterns, distractions, and tendencies that cost you time and energy year after year. Once you can spot them, you can finally address them — and having a brother beside you to hold you accountable makes all the difference.

178: New Dads-Don't Suffer In Silence

Early fatherhood hits harder than most men admit. You’re exhausted, overwhelmed, and trying to hold it all together — but hiding your struggle can make your wife feel even more alone.   In this episode, we talk about why new dads put on a front, why that isolates both of you, and how to communicate honestly, show grace, and move through this season as a team.   You’re not weak for struggling. You’re being forged.   Sponsored by Vintage Gentlemen Upgrade your style and everyday carry with Vintage Gentlemen. Use DRJACKSON20 for 20% off.
