In this reflective and hope-filled episode, Ken reframes the notorious “Quitters Day” and the shame that can trail failed resolutions. Drawing from personal experiences and recent conversations with clients, he reminds listeners that missing goals does not equal being a failure. Your worth is intrinsic, permanent, and unearned—no checklist or timeline can add to or subtract from it.

Ken also widens the lens on what truly matters. From the passing of loved ones to the everyday stack of “should-read” books and never-ending bills, he illustrates how many of the pressures we carry simply aren’t ultimate. Borrowing a powerful thought—“I will kiss my wife a finite number of times”—he urges us to savor the present, learn from setbacks, and choose joy intentionally. Men are that they might have joy—so let’s have joy.
