Brotherhood Forged: A Christian Men’s Podcast on Faith, Fatherhood & Leadership

Episode 44 | What Friction Showed Up This Week? – How to Spot & Remove Life’s Energy Drains


Listen Later

In this Friday Reflection, Joey and Paul break down how small, self-imposed frictions—like a cluttered desk, negative self-talk, skipped preparation, or indecision—quietly steal momentum and joy. Through personal stories (including the now-legendary Dinner Trap) and biblical insight from Proverbs 4:26, we unpack:

 

✅ How to identify friction that’s draining your energy

✅ Why not all resistance is from God

✅ Simple systems to smooth out life’s rough edges

✅ A weekend challenge to reclaim clarity and strength

Weekend Mission:

 

Pick just ONE point of friction in your life. Smooth it out before Monday. Maybe it’s dishes, your nightly routine, or setting phone boundaries. Small wins build momentum.

📖 Scripture:

Proverbs 4:26 – “Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways.”
