Authentic Masculinity

Your Mentor Pitch: The Foolish Question Wise Men Hear All the Time


Listen Later

One of the scariest things the Bible teaches is that the fool thinks he's wise. And if you're pursuing mentorship the way most men do, you might be acting like that fool without realizing it. This episode exposes what the truly wise actually do instead.

The successful man didn't build his marriage by spending Friday nights coaching strangers. He's won success through careful boundaries, not by abandoning those principles just because you asked politely. Most men approach wisdom like a job application, then wonder why the interview never happens.

But here's the danger: you're assuming one person can fill what you actually need from many. The man hunting a single mentor creates a point of failure that leaves him stranded when that relationship shifts.

There's a completely different framework for accessing wisdom that flips your entire approach on its head. Discover why the busiest, most guarded men will suddenly open their lives when you see something worth imitating and ask the right questions about it.

Visit sethtroutt.com for more insights on authentic masculinity that builds wisdom through plural counsel rather than dependent relationships.
