  • Navigating Loss & Finding Purpose | Josh Acosta
    Aug 11 2025

    Josh Acosta made a promise when he became a dad - to be the kind of father he never had. Present. Devoted. All in.

    But when his son Axl was diagnosed with a rare cancer, everything changed. What followed was eight months of hospitals, sleepless nights, and a battle no family is ever prepared for.

    In this powerful episode, Josh shares the story of that journey - and how it led to a new mission: to help other fathers and families navigate the darkest chapters of their lives.

  • Let Go or Stay Stuck | Justin Cross
    Jul 28 2025

    Justin Cross helped test the F-22 Raptor - one of the world’s most advanced fighter jets. But when a crash in the Mojave desert killed a pilot and buried the jet in the sand, it forced him to face something he’d been avoiding for years.

    In this episode, Justin shares how that moment became a turning point - not just in how he saw risk, but in how he dealt with guilt, shame, and the internal weight most men never talk about.

    We dive into what he’s building now through a retreat that helps men strip away the noise, confront what’s holding them back, and finally move forward.

  • If You Don’t Change It, You Choose It | Bob Willett
    Jul 14 2025

    You ever have a moment where you realize... you’ve been doing it all wrong?

    At 35, Bob Willett had everything he thought he wanted - a successful career, a big house, a beautiful family… but deep down, he knew something wasn’t right.

    In this episode, Bob shares how burnout, missed moments, and one emotional car ride with his son forced him to make a life-changing decision. From corporate sales to full-time coach and trainer, this is a story about letting go of ego, rediscovering purpose, and building a deeper bond with the people who matter most.

    We talk fatherhood, business, marriage, and what it really means to lead with heart. If you've ever felt stretched thin, stuck in the grind, or unsure what you're chasing - this one’s for you.
