Intro

Hey everyone, today we’re bringing you a special episode from my appearance on the Retirement House Podcast earlier this year. For those who don’t know, the Retirement House Podcast is all about blending humor and real-life lessons from unique perspectives, tackling everything from relationships to personal growth with their signature wit and wisdom.

In this episode, we dive deep into what it means to balance ambition, family, and mental health in today’s world. We cover the evolving definition of masculinity, the pressures of fatherhood, and how to stop letting judgment—both from others and ourselves—control our lives. I also share personal stories from my upbringing, insights into social media’s role in modern life, and why I believe grace, effort, and perspective are key to thriving.

Whether you’re here for the laughs or the life lessons, this episode delivers. Huge thanks to the Retirement House crew for having me on—this was one of my favorite conversations yet. Let me know what you think!
