  • Revisit: Unmasking Authenticity: The Journey to Your True Self
    Jul 26 2025

    Episode #1010

    Most guys don’t realize they’re wearing a mask. Maybe it’s the “successful one,” the “nice guy,” or the “always-in-control” version of you. These masks usually start out as protection—but eventually, they just make life heavier, less real, and more exhausting.

    In this episode, Tim, Grant, Arthur, and Jared get honest about the masks they've worn, how those masks formed, and what it takes to actually let go of them. If you've ever caught yourself saying “Why did I just react like that?” or “Why does this keep happening to me?”—there’s probably a deeper layer at play.

    This isn't about perfection. It’s about awareness, small steps, and being surrounded by people who will tell you the truth—especially when you’re slipping back into old patterns.

    🎙️ You’ll walk away with practical ways to recognize when you're showing up as someone you're not—and what to do about it.

    👉 If you're realizing you've been showing up with a mask—and it’s costing you connection, trust, or respect in your relationship—it's time to make a shift.

  • Healing from Betrayal: Rebuilding Trust and Setting Boundaries
    Jul 24 2025

    Episode #1009

    What do you do when trust has been broken in your relationship—especially if you were the one who caused the pain? In this episode, Doug and Chris have a raw, no-fluff conversation about what it really takes to heal after betrayal. They unpack how long is “long enough” to sit in guilt, when it’s time to start setting boundaries, and why beating yourself up won’t rebuild connection.

    This isn’t about quick fixes or fake apologies—it’s about doing the real work: owning your part, creating a new path forward, and protecting your self-respect while also holding space for your partner’s pain. Whether you’re the one who broke trust or you’ve been betrayed, this one’s going to hit home.

    If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in the cycle of shame, anger, or not knowing how to move forward—this is the conversation you need to hear.

    👉 Ready to rebuild trust and stop walking on eggshells in your relationship?

  • The Journey to Authentic Manhood: Challenges and Triumphs
    Jul 22 2025

    Episode #1008

    Ever find yourself resisting the very tools you know will help you? In this episode, Doug Holt sits down with fellow TPM coach Christopher Hansen to answer a powerful question from the community: “What part of the program do you struggle to live out in real life?”

    The conversation is refreshingly honest. They talk about slipping on routines like the Alpha Rise & Shine, avoiding conflict cleanup, and the very human reasons why even experienced coaches still fall short sometimes. It's not about being perfect - it’s about being real, showing up, and staying in the work.

    Whether you're deep into personal development or just trying to get back on track, this one’s a reminder that growth is messy, personal, and always worth it.

    Ready for a gut-check?

    Give me five minutes and I’ll show you where you’re really standing - no blind spots, no B.S.

Highly recommended if you're a male business leader who finds other things in your life (like your relationship with your wife or significant other) falling by the wayside.
