He discusses his struggles with mental health, the coping mechanisms he developed, and the breakthrough he experienced through therapy and self-discovery. The conversation also highlights the importance of providing non-judgmental spaces for men, addressing unresolved resentments, and the need for a healthier, more compassionate and powerful approach to masculinity. Will emphasizes the significance of internal healing, empathetic dialogue, and the dangers of projecting unresolved issues onto external entities.

Frank Shamrock is a multiple-time world champion mixed martial artist with a 16-year career that saw him claim titles in the UFC, Strikeforce, Pancrase, and the WEC, all this after overcoming a tumultuous childhood of abuse and incarceration.
Frank graciously handed over the baton to the next generation of fighters and transitioned into promoting Strikeforce, which the UFC bought for 34m. This freed Frank to transition into his proudest role as a super-dad to his daughter Nicolette and the running of his organization, The Shamrock Way.
He returns to the ManKind Podcast with Brandon Clift to discuss the critical role that "Girl-Dads" play in the development and lives of their daughters and how we can apply the Plus, Minus, and Equal System to achieve excellence in all areas of life.

In this episode of the Mankind Podcast, hosts Boysen Hodgson and Brandon Clift are joined by Jayson Gaddis, founder of The Relationship School, to dive deep into the dynamics of relationships, emotional growth, and masculinity. Jayson shares his personal journey, starting with the pain and failure he experienced in relationships, and how that led him to do his inner work.

Key themes include the challenges men face in relationships, the role of emotional intelligence, and how both men and women can break unhealthy patterns. Jayson introduces his concept of "Lufu" (Listen Until They Feel Understood), a transformative approach to communication, particularly valuable for men struggling to connect with their partners.
The conversation also touches on how childhood experiences shape adult relationships, the importance of group work in healing, and the radical changes that can come from self-awareness. Jayson highlights the balance between fierce confrontation and tender care in coaching men to develop deeper, more meaningful relationships.
