What does it really mean to be a man in today’s world?
In this episode of The Jared Goetz Show, Jared sits down with Aron Lofton, a fighter, entrepreneur, and leader, to explore the intersection of discipline, business, and masculinity.
Aron shares how fighting shaped his mindset, how business became an arena for personal growth, and why the traditional definitions of manhood often miss the deeper truth. This is a conversation about strength, responsibility, and building a life of integrity — both in the ring and beyond it.
In this conversation, Aron reveals:
How fighting taught him discipline, focus, and resilience
The parallels between combat and entrepreneurship
Why external measures of masculinity fall short
How to build confidence from within, not from validation
The principles he lives by as a fighter, businessman, and man
