In this episode, Bryan, Kellen and Thad get real about the daily grind and the unseen battles men face—at work, at home, and in their communities. They share stories that prove how the smallest acts of kindness can shift the direction of someone’s day and how being present in the moment is one of the most underrated forms of leadership.

The conversation also highlights the 1440 Promise Prison Ministry, where men preparing to reenter society got the chance to step into a “Shark Tank”-style event with Governor Kevin Stitt of Oklahoma. These men presented their business plans for life after prison—proof that leadership, growth, and redemption can come from the hardest places. It’s a powerful reminder that opportunity and community support can rewrite someone’s future. Putting God into their lives, plans and looking forward to the next chapter with BIG PLANS! 

This isn’t just about being strong; it’s about being smart enough to let others protect your blind spots. The guy's dive into how trust and vulnerability can actually make relationships stronger, not weaker, and why men need to recognize the power in letting their partners stand guard sometimes.

From tackling hard challenges that forge personal growth to stepping up in community initiatives that fuel real change, this conversation is a reminder that leadership isn’t about doing it all alone—it’s about showing up, staying grounded, and living with purpose.
