In this episode of the Ask Me Anything series, Ryan Michler and Kipp Sorenson dive into hard-hitting questions from listeners about fatherhood, masculinity, personal growth, and navigating life’s toughest transitions. They discuss what it means to be a man in today’s culture, the power of physical discipline, balancing martial arts training, and overcoming shame and failure.
With raw honesty and practical insight, they challenge men to take ownership, build resilience, and lead with purpose—especially when life demands a reinvention from the ground up.
