168: Kris Vallotton // Fatherless But Not Hopeless: How Men Are Finding Identity Again


Listen Later

In this week’s episode of the Brave Co Podcast, I share one of the most powerful and emotional topics we’ve ever covered: the transformation that happens when a boy becomes a man — not by age, but through intentional initiation and affirmation by other men. I talk about what happens when that moment is missing — and how we, as a community, can bring it back.

We explore what it means to heal the “father wound,” reclaim masculinity, and become the protector, provider, and leader that God designed every man to be. From the biblical example of David to modern-day rites of passage like our Tough Mudder course for young men, this episode dives deep into the importance of community, challenge, and identity.

Whether you're a father, mentor, or a man still figuring out who you are — this episode is for you. It’s a call to step into the front lines of manhood, to raise up the next generation, and to boldly claim the strength and purpose you were born with. Join us at Brave Co 2025 for a life-changing experience.
