🎙️ Episode 38 – The 3 Types of Men: Sheep, Wolves, and Sheepdogs
In this short but powerful episode, Mark and Zack break down a timeless framework for understanding masculinity — and challenge you to examine what kind of man you really are.
Are you a sheep who avoids conflict and responsibility? A wolf who uses strength for selfish gain? Or a sheepdog, dangerous but disciplined — a protector, provider, and man of virtue?
Drawing from movies, stories, and real client experiences, we explore how men move through these three stages and what it takes to step into your calling as a virtuous man.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
• The 3 levels of masculinity and what defines each one
• How culture confuses strength with virtue
• Why being “nice” isn’t the same as being good
• What every man must face to become who he’s meant to be
• How to take the first step on your own hero’s journey
