Rising Tribes Podcast

Welcome to the Rising Tribes Podcast — where raw conversations meet real growth. Hosted by two former professional athletes turned husbands, fathers, and high-performance leaders, this is the podcast for people who look like they’ve got it all together… but still carry the silent weight of pressure, expectation, and self-doubt. We talk about what most people only think about — the stuff that lives in your chest and keeps you up at night. From marriage and parenting to sex, business, faith, fitness, money, mental health, and the quiet battle of “am I enough?” — nothing is off-limits here. Alongside our wives and powerful guests, we’re building a tribe of everyday warriors who are deeply rooted in character and relentlessly rising in every area of life. This isn’t therapy. It’s not self-help fluff. It’s honest, bold, unfiltered conversation — with people who get it. Because the strongest tribes don’t fake it. They rise together.
