Forging Forward is a long-form podcast focused on growth, resilience, and honest conversations about what it means to build a meaningful life. Hosted by Adam Thorne and Andy Kemp, the show blends mental health, personal development, culture, and real-world experience—without clichés or therapy-speak.

Each episode explores how people move forward through challenge: identity shifts, failure, discipline, masculinity, purpose, relationships, and mental health in the modern world. Some episodes feature thoughtful guest conversations, while others are grounded, reflective discussions that cut through noise and trend-chasing.

Forging Forward is direct, practical, and human—designed for people who want to think clearly, take responsibility, and keep moving forward even when things get uncomfortable.
