Episode #998

What if that argument about the dishes isn’t really about the dishes?

Most guys fall into the same trap during conflict—we react. We defend ourselves, make excuses, try to explain things, or just shut down completely. I’ve been there, and I used to think being “right” would solve everything. It didn’t. It just made the fights last longer and left us both feeling more disconnected.

In this episode, I’m bringing back a short but powerful conversation that can shift everything. I walk you through how I stopped blowing up arguments in my marriage and started turning those heated moments into connection.

We dive into a simple technique I used when things were at their worst—counting to 10. Sounds basic, right? But that pause gave me just enough space to stop reacting and start listening. From there, I used what we call the Hidden Motives Technique to figure out what my wife was really trying to say underneath the complaints.

In this revisit, I’ll show you how to shift the dynamic, so you're not just avoiding a blowup—you’re actually building more trust and intimacy. When your wife feels seen and heard, everything changes—including how she responds to you.

This isn’t about walking on eggshells. It’s about learning to lead better during conflict. And it works.

Episode #997

Most men wait until they hit a wall before they do anything about their health. But it doesn’t have to be that way. In this episode, I sit down with Jason Kidman — a tech guy turned health optimization coach — to talk about how he went from burnout and chronic pain to feeling better at 44 than he did at 29.

We cover practical stuff: peptides, hormone health, biohacking (yes, without the hype), and how the system most of us rely on — doctors, meds, insurance — often fails to get us feeling better.

If you’re a guy in your late 30s or 40s thinking, “This is just what aging feels like,” this one’s for you. Jason breaks down what’s actually possible when you stop accepting brain fog, low energy, and poor sleep as your new normal.

We also talk about what to do first if you’re just starting out — and how small shifts can help you lead from the front as a husband, father, and business owner.

No fluff. No quick fixes. Just real talk and actionable takeaways to get your health back on track.

Episode #996

How often do you find yourself being the one everyone else looks up to—but secretly wondering who’s helping you rise?

When you’re the guy with all the answers, where do you go when you need to level up?

In this episode, Tim sits down with Magoo and The Gift—two members of The Powerful Man’s Inner Circle—to break down what actually happens behind the scenes of this invite-only group. These aren’t just guys chasing success. They’re already winning—and still choosing to be pushed, challenged, and held to a higher standard.

You’ll hear what it’s like to be surrounded by men who won’t let you shrink, even when it’s uncomfortable. They talk openly about the pressure, the honesty, the moments of doubt—and how that friction creates serious growth. One-year visions are getting crushed in under five months. Guys are having the best years of their lives, and it’s not by accident.

In this episode, you'll hear how they’re playing the game differently. And why, if you're ready for something more—this might be exactly the push you didn’t know you needed.

🔥 Ready to stop playing small and start leading at a higher level—in your business and your marriage?

If you're the kind of man who thrives with structure, challenge, and real results (like the guys inside the Inner Circle), then start by getting clarity on where things are breaking down.
