Menfolk Journeys

This podcast explores how different men from all walks of life wear the beautiful and confusing mantle of manhood. Men can be knuckleheads in public life. But in private, if given the right questions and if they feel comfortable, men can also be thoughtful, reflective, and have deep conversations about their lives, big questions, and meaningful ideas. We have great conversations with men just like us and from all walks of life, so we can learn from their personal stories and all get better together.

  60. Shaun Is Intent On Raising His Cub Right

  Aug 13, 20261h 23m

  The challenges fathers have in raising young boys today seems, well, more challenging than before. From conflicting models of what manhood and masculinity should be, to readily-accessible pornography, to figuring out how to socialize with girls in a way that takes care and is also natural to their hormones...it's a messy hodgepodge of messages those boys are getting. And Shaun Dauson is trying to figure it out. And he talks about how he has to deal with his own s**t so he can be the model of manhood that inspires his son to be the best he can be.

  59. Shalin and How Breathing Changed His Life

  Aug 6, 202655 min

  Why does it seem like such a simple thing to breathe...and for there to be an entire course of study on how to breathe? Shalin began to understand the power of breathwork when he was 16 years old, and on the cusp of manhood. It changed his entire transition into adulthood, centering his mind, calming his body, and preparing his whole self to become a larger, more centered man. He was one of the calmest, warmest, easiest guests I've spoken to so far...and it has to do with how he's learned to breathe. And, thankfully, he's teaching other people how to do it, too.

  56. Randy and Rebuilding a Framework

  Jun 11, 20261h 9m

  What happens when you decide to dismantle your own life, because it wasn't working for you? Do you have the courage to deconstruct...and then rebuild? Can you look around your life and - if it's not what you want from it - begin again? Do you have the courage to do so? So often, people fall into a track that doesn't suit their happiness...but they stay on it because it's safe, normative, and the known known. This is a story and conversation with a man who did the opposite. He left his life, and rebuilt another one in its place. Challenging? Yes. Heartbreaking? Yes. Seemingly overwhelming? Yes. But is it worth it...well, you can decide. Support the show
