What if the strongest move isn’t “toughing it out,” but learning the language of your inner world and training your mind like an athlete trains for game day? We sit down with therapist and author Jett Stone to unpack how men can move beyond the stoic shell and build real confidence, depth, and brotherhood without losing their edge.
Jett draws a clear line between reflection that moves you forward and overthinking that burns time and energy. You’ll learn the psychology behind worry and rumination, how to spot the “unwanted, unproductive, unrelenting” loop, and why most men first notice stress in their bodies—racing heart, clenched jaw, twitching eye—before they can name it. From there, we get practical: body-first tools like box breathing and the cyclic sigh, quick movement to interrupt mental spirals, and performance reframes that shift threats into challenges the way elite athletes do.
We also explore self-diplomacy with the inner critic. Instead of waging war on the voice that once kept you safe, Jett shows how honoring its old job—and redefining its role—creates distance and control. Give that voice a name, expect its arrival, and choose your response. Map your triggers around competence, control, money, and belonging; then experiment with a toolkit that fits your life. This isn’t about becoming less of a man; it’s about evolving toward relationships that are richer, communication that’s clearer, and mental fitness that holds up when stakes are high.
