Rebuilding Purpose and Meaning for Modern Men

In today’s fast-paced, hyperconnected world, more men are quietly struggling with a deep sense of emptiness. They wake up, go to work, scroll through their phones, and repeat the cycle, day after day, without any real sense of purpose or meaning. “A lot of men say that they’re stressed out or overworked,” says Marc. “But when I really listen to their stories, I see that they’re bored, existentially bored. They’re not just tired; they’re starved for meaning.”

Marc describes this as a boredom epidemic as a silent crisis that’s eroding men’s motivation, relationships, and sense of self. Beneath the surface of this modern masculinity dilemma lies something more profound: a hunger for depth and direction. In his words, “We’re talking about chronic existential boredom, cold boredom. It’s a lack of feeling, a lack of meaning, a sense that nothing matters.”

Through this conversation, Marc unpacks the root causes of this masculinity crisis and provides practical steps for men to reclaim their energy, rediscover purpose and meaning, and build more real connections in their lives.
