16. What is Love?

Mon, 21 Apr 2025 07:00:00 -0500

In this episode of The Self Governed Man Podcast, I’m calling out the lie that’s been used to shut men like us up: “Just be loving.” The world has twisted the word “love” to mean silent, soft, and weak. That’s not love. That’s manipulation.

If you’ve ever been told you’re not loving because you stood for truth, you need to hear this. I break down what real love is and what it isn’t. I share how I’ve lost relationships for speaking the truth... and why I’ll keep doing it anyway.

If you’re a man who refuses to back down from truth, this one’s for you.

In This Episode:

🔥 Why I won’t let people use “love” to silence me

🔥 What the Bible really says about love (and why it matters)

🔥 How to stand firm when people try to twist your faith

13. The Rarity of Rich Relationships

Mon, 31 Mar 2025 07:00:00 -0500

In this episode of The Self Governed Man Podcast, I explore something most men crave but rarely find… brotherhood. Not just surface-level friendships, but the kind of iron-sharpens-iron relationships that forge you into the man you're called to be. The reality is, real brotherhood is rare. Most men go through life surrounded by acquaintances but never find those few who will stand in the fire with them, challenge them, and fight for their future.

I’ve seen it firsthand both the loneliness of lacking it and the power of having it. And if you’re a man who feels like you’re on your own, struggling to find others who truly get you, who push you to level up instead of dragging you down, this episode is for you.

In This Episode:

Why most men never find true brotherhood and how you can
The difference between fair-weather friendships and covenant relationships
How to become the kind of man who attracts high-caliber friendships
The truth about why leadership is lonely but necessary
