Episode #1027

In this episode, we sit down with two TPM men to talk about what it really looks like to start a new relationship after doing the work on yourself. We unpack what changes when you show up with clarity, confidence, and your own life already in alignment.

They share honest stories about how their relationships shifted—not because they followed some script or played games, but because they focused on being real, doing their inner work, and raising their own standards.

Whether you're newly single, dating again after a divorce, or trying to figure out what a healthy relationship even looks like, this one will help you get grounded. We talk about red flags, energy, attraction, long-distance dynamics, and how being present (with your partner, your kids, and yourself) changes everything.

This isn’t about chasing “the one.” It’s about becoming someone who doesn’t need a relationship to feel whole—but is open to one that adds to the life you've already built.

Episode #1026

Most guys stick to surface-level friendships, talking sports, work, or the usual weekend plans. But deep down, there’s a part of you that’s craving more. Real connection, honest conversation, and support from other men who actually get it.

In this episode, we’re recording from the TPM Ranch during the Legends Event with men who’ve done the inner work and keep showing up for each other. We talk about what it’s actually like to build friendships where you can drop the act, say what’s really going on, and not get judged for it. The guys share how these bonds didn’t just happen. They were built, rep by rep, by showing up even when it felt uncomfortable.

If you've ever thought, “I don’t have any men in my life I can talk to like this,” this one’s for you. We talk about what to do when you feel isolated, how to start small, and why just taking one small risk to connect could change everything.

Episode #1021

In this episode, Doug sits down with Erin to talk about what really happens in a relationship when a man feels stuck. Like he’s going through the motions, checked all the boxes, but still feels like something’s missing.

Erin shares a raw and honest look from the woman's perspective. What it feels like to be partnered with a man who’s lost his drive, passion, or sense of purpose.

They dig into how that affects the marriage, the energy at home, and why it often pushes her into a role she doesn’t want to play. This isn’t about blame. It’s about seeing what’s really going on and choosing to change it.
