About this episode

In this episode of ASK ME ANYTHING, Kipp Sorensen and Duane Winkel discuss key topics like masculinity, critical thinking, and personal responsibility. They talk about the importance of clearly understanding and expressing one's beliefs, assuming positive intent, and taking responsibility. They also offer advice to parents on guiding young men in a time of conflicting ideas about manhood.

They explore how their views on masculine values, especially leadership, have evolved to include emotional and spiritual support. Additionally, they share practical strategies for overcoming negative self-talk, supporting spouses, and the challenges of transitioning from corporate careers to entrepreneurship.
