The fallout from coronavirus has put unbelievable stress on all of us, but what if the situation was worse? Would we have the mental stamina to endure? You may remember today's guest for sharing his incredible story of going on a darkness retreat in the jungles of Guatemala, where he stayed in a 12 x 8 concrete room for 28 days in absolute black silence. Traver Boehm is the author of Today I Rise and the founder of the Man Uncivilized Movement. He is back to tell us how he tapped into his inner strength to endure the unimaginable. He also talks about embracing our primal masculine gifts to squeeze the juice out of life, even while we're up against a crisis like COVID-19. Traver teaches us how to make the best of our situation, draw on our inner strengths, and connect with people in ways we never have before. He inspires us to look deep inside and view our lives in an empowered light. This episode will have you pumped up. Let's get uncivilized!

How do you learn how to make something of your life when you never had an example to follow? Today's guest knew he wanted to make a name for himself in the world, but he didn't know how.

All we need to do is tap into it. Muay Thai legend Chris Romulo returns to the show to share his story of a champion's uprising. He talks about how he grew from a frustrated, depressed young man into a world-renowned fighter, and how he's used what he's learned in the ring to become the husband, father, entrepreneur and community leader he is today.

In this episode I interviewed my 14 year old to get his perspective on the challenges of the quarantine, Covid-19, and what he has appreciated most.

As dads, we are the protectors, the warriors. But how can we protect our children when we don't know what we're up against? Whether it's a tablet, phone, or computer—our kids are exposed to a minefield of predators, cyberbullies, and sexual content. We are the first generation with this problem. What is the best way to protect our children from this insidious danger? This show is scary, but we are at war. As fathers, we have a duty and responsibility to keep our kids safe. We give our sons and daughters seatbelts in the car and helmets when they ride a bike. In this digital age, we need to give them the same kind of safety gear for navigating the internet. Today we have Titiana Jordan on The Dad Edge. She is the Chief Parent Officer at Bark, an app that helps families manage and protect their children's online lives. She tells us the disturbing reality of what our kids are exposed to on the internet. She gives us a guide on how and when to talk to our kids about what they may encounter on the internet and the best way to protect them from online predators, cyberbullying, and sexual content. This show will disturb and enrage you, but it is information parents desperately need. This is a must listen.

What's the difference between managing your family and leading them? Do you know your values as a family and your vision of how it should operate? If the answer is no, don't worry. You're pretty much just like everyone else. We often have learned to be leaders in our work and our community, but rarely do we use these skills when we come home with our kids. With packed schedules and hectic days, it's all we can do to make it to bedtime, but today we're going to talk about how leading your family brings you closer together, makes decisions easier, and opens up new possibilities in other areas of your life. Today we have Stewart Friedman and Alyssa Westring on the show. They are organizational psychologists and the authors of Parents Who Lead: The Leadership Approach You Need to Parent with Purpose, Fuel Your Career, and Create a Richer Life. They're going to give us the skillset we need to lead our families and plan and prioritize our lives around what truly matters to us. This show will totally change the way you look at your role as a father. Don't miss this chance to create the family life you always dreamed of!
