The Power of a Man’s Purpose
Nov 23, 2022What does it mean to be a man?
There are probably a thousand different answers to this question, but there is one thing that is certain no matter how you define what a man is: if he’s not living to his purpose, he will not find true happiness.
In this episode we’re diving into what it looks like when men are living purposefully, including what it can look like in their relationships, as fathers, and more importantly, how they feel about themselves.
We’re also getting a look into Mike’s brain to get his perspective on what it means to live with purpose, and he’ll discuss how he turned things around to find his own purpose in life.
The power of a man’s purpose is about so much more than “being a man” - it can shift the whole balance and dynamic in your relationships and your entire life for the better, which will ultimately work to make the world a better place!
