Men to Mastery Podcast

Tracy Goodwin has captivated audiences as an award-winning speaker, actor, and director. But, as a child her voice was stifled and in an on-stage tragedy in college, Tracy’s voice was literally beaten out of her. In rediscovering her own voice, Tracy uncovered the direct link between our internal beliefs and external communication. Now, Tracy trains executives, entrepreneurs, parents, and leaders to make deeper connections and communicate more effectively through Psychology of the Voice.

Mark England shares how to take control of your life one word at a time. His mission is helping people use intentional language to shape the beliefs that become reality as more powerful, more fulfilled lives. We discuss breaking the victim mentality, the four main things our words influence, and the importance of written words – especially for children.

“What starts as a simple word choice ultimately forms the world which we inhabit”

– Mark England

Chad Austin is passionate about helping people who can’t find time for fitness learn how to stop making excuses, so they can make it a priority in their lives. He expertly helps steer people away from the desire of instant gratification and helps them make changes that lead to long term fitness, not just temporary success. As we approach the end of 2020 (yes!!), why not begin now with a sustainable new plan to beat your excuses and make fitness a priority in the New Year!

And make sure to listen to find out about Chad’s Sports Fan Fitness League – to combine fitness challenges in with watching your favorite sports.

“Fitness is always the thing that we think we will get to later. We need to rewire our brains and think of fitness as something we can do right now. Just like all of the other priorities in our life, when one gets better all get better.”

– Chad Austin

Thane Marcus Ringler is a former professional golfer now focused on bringing the habits, mindsets, and disciplines of a pro athlete to everyday people and life. The #1 limiting factor in his athletic career – mental discipline – and the lessons learned are the platform for Thane’s insightful and actionable ways to own and optimize thoughts and behaviors. Thane also recommends several tools including his favorite for training mental fortitude…all with a vision and optimism toward individually being the best we can and collectively improving the world.

Micah Murphree grew up doing hard work on a farm and in sports. As a youth pastor and father of three, he has a passion for developing respectful young men and instilling resilience. When he suddenly found himself out of bounds where he wanted to be physically, he took action – looking to lead by example with passion and perseverance.

Micah got moving, he reframed his language and mindset, and committed to some big goals. In the process he reawakened a long term vision for creating a sustainable business that would serve others in need. That vision has come to life as Grit Army – making relentlessly designed, high quality compression socks for obstacle course racing and other athletic apparel and with proceeds supporting a program for children in the Dominican Republic.

“Let’s create an army of people that come together, that are pushing each other, encouraging each other, and working toward a goal of getting rid of excuses in life. Think about how much better we could all be in every aspect if we just throw out excuses and work towards grit. “

– Micah Murphree

Lani Woods is a mom of two, athlete, adventurer, and healthcare professional. She is also the survivor of an impoverished childhood, depression, and a toxic and abusive relationship. Through it all she recognized in herself an innate resiliency and has turned to physical fitness individually and as a bonding tool for her family.

During her recent recovery from a complex leg injury, Lani launched the Unrelenting Humans podcast to celebrate and empower other athletes by sharing their stories of fortitude in sport and life.

Lani is also establishing a non-profit for athletes in underserved communities. Growing up in poverty, without resources and activities to promote physical and mental health, has inspired Lani’s work to provide access to sports as a means to help more humans reach their full life potential.

Brent Gleeson is back with his second book in raw, no excuses and no bullshit form. Embrace the Suck – The Navy SEAL Way to an Extraordinary Life is a follow-up and complement to his best-seller TakingPoint, which focused on effectively leading organizations through change. Embrace the Suck drives into developing every organization’s most valuable asset – people…starting with yourself!

Brent’s humor, personality, resilience, and humility – despite massive success – come through in this unvarnished look at the stress, failures, and incredible costs behind the success. He embodies the SEAL ethos of common citizens, forged by adversity, embracing opportunities to grow and operating with uncommon desire.

Brent’s approach is again based on data and research, supported by gripping real-world experiences, and presents a specific framework to “get off your ass and execute.” 

This one is gold on its own and bolstered by a foreword by David Goggins that is not to be missed!

We’re privileged to share this pre-read and preview of Embrace the Suck!

He finally and literally collapsed under the weight of it all and made a choice to completely reinvent himself, his career, and his relationships.

Damion Lupo is uncommon when it comes to the approach and mindset of finance, investing, and wealth creation. He has an ability to flip the thinking 180 degrees such as reading the tax code as an incentive structure rather than a burden, viewing investments for the experience and people, and taking a 20 year forward view on his fund. But Damion’s holistic approach to life and finance wasn’t learned in school. In fact, he was kicked out, built and lost a business, and earned what many of us know as our real world MBA. Damion credits a fail-fast approach of making more mistakes faster than his competition as key to success and today leads 3 multimillion dollar global companies.

“When you start asking ‘how do I’, ‘what could I’, or ‘what’s possible’, everything changes.”

– Damion Lupo
