Chase McNary went from medical sales to instant fame on The Bachelorette. Overnight he was recognized everywhere, making money on Instagram, and being paid to party. But the dream wasn’t what it seemed.

For four years, Chase lived in the noise — appearances, bottle service, even opening a bar built on his TV persona. Then came the breaking point. In this episode, he shares the cost of chasing fame, why walking away was the only way forward, and how he chose to build a life that lasts: one woman, one family, one mission. He also pulls back the curtain on the reality TV moment that changed everything.

Listen now and hear what happens when the spotlight fades.

Former NHL enforcer Dave Shachard built his 14-year professional hockey career on a simple daily practice: shooting 100 pucks every single day, no matter the weather or circumstances. This relentless consistency took him from sleeping in his dad's truck at junior camp to competing against the world's best players. After multiple concussions left him barely able to function, Dave had to apply that same all-in discipline to rebuilding his life from scratch. He shares how daily practice shapes character, why consistency beats talent, and how the habits that build athletic success translate to every other area of life.

Most men are winging it. No rite of passage. No initiation. No moment that says, “Now you’re a man.”

Adam Jeremiah knows that void firsthand. Raised without a father, he searched for structure in the Marines, on oil rigs, in business, and in academia. He built it all - then lost it all. Homeless. Hopeless. Until two moments shattered him open: a psychedelic confrontation with truth, and the look of fear in his son’s eyes when he raised his voice.

In this raw conversation, Adam shares how he began reclaiming his life and why today’s men are starving for the clarity, pain, and purpose that only initiation provides. From masculine archetypes to tribal rites of passage - and even beard growth as a modern-day symbol - this episode explores what it really takes to earn your edge as a man.

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

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.

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.
