What if the struggles most men face aren’t random, but the result of living in a shadow version of who they were created to be? In this deep convo, Preston Woody joins Zach to break down the four core roles of a man—King, Warrior, Poet, and Priest—and the eight shadow figures that hijack each one. Through faith, psychology, and the example of Jesus as the perfect man, you’ll discover how to step out of the shadows and become more present, grounded, and whole.🔗 Connect with Preston and Zach

PS. Please share the podcast with a new friend!

At 18 years old, Jamison Charles had eight felonies and was sentenced to more time in prison than he’d been alive.

During our live audience show, Jamison shares how 27 years behind bars, a praying mother, and a bold challenge to God led to a complete transformation. What began in prison with a pen and a prayer turned into a life of purpose, authorship, ministry, and restoration.

You’ll hear:
• What prison is really like when the doors close
• How God called his bluff and changed the narrative
• Why writing saved his life
• What redemption looks like after release
• How Jamison is helping others before, during, and after incarceration

This is a story of grace, responsibility, and the power of letting God rewrite the ending.

Brandon Forbes shares the full story behind the dream God gave him, whiteboarding business ideas with Alex Hormozi. This DREAM ended up coming true and reshaping Brandon's business, faith, and calling after winning the Skool Games. We talk through Brandon’s journey from cleaning pools to winning the School Games, running $58,000+ in Meta ads to invite people into a free Bible study, baptizing his own mother, and building a coaching movement that has impacted thousands.

We also go deep into:
• How God redirected his business at its peak
• The idea that made Brandon over $1M in coaching revenue
• Fatherhood, identity, pride, purpose, and the question: “Are you proud of yourself?”
• What Christian entrepreneurs must confront to grow without losing their soul
• Surfing the “wave” of momentum and waiting for God’s timing

This episode is packed with wisdom, testimony, and practical insight for believers building businesses, ministries, and families with Jesus at the center.
