What happens when life strips you of everything you thought defined you as a man? For Wayne Forrest, a former farmer and rugby player, one accident changed everything. A broken neck left him paralyzed from the chest down, but it also led him to uncover a new definition of strength, resilience, and purpose.
In this powerful episode, Wayne shares his journey from devastation to transformation and introduces the concept of the Inner Warrior—the part of us that chooses growth, courage, and love even in the face of pain.
You will learn:
- Why unhealthy competition and ego can destroy us—and how to replace it with healthy drive
- How to face pain head-on instead of burying it until it erupts as anger, anxiety, or depression
- Practical tools for moving from victimhood to creation in any circumstance
- The role of vulnerability and presence in building deeper relationships as men and fathers
- How to awaken your Inner Warrior and step into a life of meaning, no matter your challenges
Wayne’s story proves that true masculinity is not about denial or bravado. It is about facing pain, creating from it, and choosing presence over performance.
