This isn’t just another podcast episode. It’s an unmasking.

Formerly known as Probably Important, we’re now Forged Youth: Legacy Within—a space where transformation isn’t just talked about, it’s lived. In this episode, Mariel sits down with coach, retreat leader, and modern alchemist Alex Terranova to explore the raw terrain of what it means to be a man in emotional evolution.

Alex talks candidly about the grief of infertility, the unexpected healing found in men’s retreats, and what happens when we stop avoiding pain and finally sit in the fire. It’s a conversation that swirls with authenticity, courage, and the kind of wisdom that doesn’t come from textbooks—but from living through the things that almost broke you.

🔹 What made a retreat of 14 men burst into collective tears
🔹 The untold cost of toxic stoicism in men’s lives
🔹 How infertility cracked open something deeper
🔹 Reframing anger and sadness as signals—not weaknesses
🔹 Why being “too much” is actually the beginning of healing

Whether you’re someone who’s carried the weight of silence, or someone who loves someone who has—this episode is your invitation to feel, to see, to heal.

In this powerful episode, Mariel sits down with Thomas Scaria—coach, author, marathoner, and advocate for living authentically—to explore what it truly means to rise through adversity. From the shock of personal loss and career upheaval to finding strength in long-distance running, Thomas shares the transformative journey that led him to develop his unique framework: "Resilience Plus Rise."

Listeners will hear Thomas's raw story of navigating grief and unexpected challenges, and how he used discipline, gratitude, and mental fortitude to not just survive—but rise. With insights drawn from his coaching practice and his new book, Thomas emphasizes the power of commitment over fleeting motivation, and the daily practices that build a life of purpose and integrity.

This episode is a deep dive into the human spirit’s capacity to endure, evolve, and inspire. Whether you're a youth athlete, a parent, or a coach, you'll walk away with tools and a renewed perspective on resilience, identity, and the courage to show up fully in your own life.

Want to have Thomas as a guide as you learn to own your resilience and rise?
