Ever look around and feel like everyone else is miles ahead while you’re just trying to stay afloat?
In this episode, we expose the silent pressure men carry to measure up — and what it does to our confidence, our identity, and our ability to keep showing up. This isn’t another motivational hype speech. This is raw. Gritty. Honest.
Host Eric Madden gets real about the invisible expectations that trap men in cycles of shame, silence, and self-comparison — and why feeling “behind” might be the greatest lie you’ve believed.
We’ll talk about:
Why most men feel like they missed the mark
The root of that constant pressure to be further along
How to stop measuring your life by someone else’s timeline
The truth about growth, pain, and purpose
How to reframe your season and reclaim your strength
If you’ve ever thought, “I should be more by now,” this one’s for you.
Plus, hear about the upcoming Recalibrate Retreat — a weekend reset for men ready to drop the mask, break through the noise, and remember who they are.
🔥 This is the forge.
This is brotherhood.
