Melhores podcasts sobre Spirit And Swagger (2024)

Have you wandered? And if you did, did you get back home or to your own “North Star’? I think the Homeric epic The Odyssey continues to be compelling, especially for menfolk, even after 2,700 years. The story of trying to get back home, but being detained, waylaid, having adventures, learning, and generally exploring various ways of living while ma…

1:01:35

The origin of the word “serendipity” is suggested to have from a 1754 fairy tale titled The Three Princes of Serendip, by Horace Walpole. In the story, the heroes ‘were always making discoveries, by accidents and sagacity, of things they were not in quest of’. Some folks think that having a life of unexpected - but sought for - blessings come from …

18. Andrew and The Swagger That Comes With Being Yourself 1:09:03

21d ago1:09:03

1:09:03

How do we gain confidence? Where does a sense of full possession, of being comfortable with who you are, come from? Does it ever leave? Or, once you possess yourself, can you hold fast to that belief that you are everything you need to be? Having that confidence in yourself is an enviable trait...and can give a man a swagger about themselves. But w…

1:10:56

When we discover our true, authentic selves, it's usually in childhood. Let's say we're about 5 or 6 years old, and we're aware enough of people, we're beginning to form our own identity, but we're not saddled with the expectations from friends or parents, or bounded by societal norms. Sometimes, we keep to that core self, but more often, boys and …

What guidance do you have in charting the course of your life? What kind of convention, pillars, framework, or set of rules do you abide by? When beginning an adulthood, many men get lost. So many find that the paths are too winding, open, and there are no clear stepping stones or guardrails to help guide a life. My friend Tim recognized that there…

This is a MONSTER episode. How do you go from a completely chaotic childhood filled with abuse and mixed families, push through a confusing adulthood of service and religion, and find yourself with a 30+ year marriage, a bevy of beautiful children, and a path towards continual learning?

Is pride and love for our children unconditional? Do we - at our core, as parents - want our children to be happy and proud of their most authentic selves? We know that over the entire history of human culture, from Gallelio to the Suffragettes to Martin Luther King, Jr., people have changed social norms. So why wouldn't social norms about gender, …

When you are shocked into Manhood, sometimes the only way forward is to do what you love. And by pursuing a passion, you might end up taking care of everything else. Usually, if you love what you do, you'll be good at it. And, if you bring that passion into everything you do, then usually you end up being a successful person. Because what matters i…

One of the more philosophical and poetic moments of the “Rocky” movies is in the last one, Rocky Balboa. In it, Rocky tells his son “You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward; how much you can take and keep moving forward.” And again, in pop cult…

The path to choosing to be an entrepreneur is different in every case. To forego a traditional career where you “find a job,” and instead push into the unknown where you create your own career is rare and takes a certain kind of skill and gumption. What drives someone to do that? Why do those people not only take a different road in life, but actua…

The Buddhist and Hindu (and other) precepts of multiple lives are well-known. Whether you think that is a valid life perspective or not, and whether you think this is your only life and there isn’t another go-round, anyone I’ve met agrees that we have “multiple lives” within this life. I have a new life now than I did when I was in my 20s and even …

Transformation happens to all of us, all the time. When men go through different transformations, sometimes they're planned and sometimes they're shocks to the system. Sometimes it makes them change who they are. Sometimes it makes them rethink who they have been. For the most open-hearted, transformations always leave us stronger, better, and - ho…

Mantle (noun): a cloak; an important role or responsibility that passes from one person to another. It’s natural for men to think that they own and nurture a Mantle of sorts to be passed from father to son. In the past, passing the mantle ensured the survival of the tribe because it wasn’t just teaching skills so that the next generation would surv…
