In this episode of Friday Field Notes, Ryan Michler explores what it means to be a comprehensive man, introducing a framework of head, heart, and hands—logic, empathy, and action. Reflecting on his own tendencies and biases, Ryan challenges listeners to identify their strengths and weaknesses across these dimensions.
Through personal anecdotes, including a friend’s loss and a poignant Iron Council call, he emphasizes the need for balance to lead effectively in family, business, and community. Ryan invites feedback as he refines this model, urging men to round out their approach to become who they’re meant to be.
