BraveCo
About this episode

In this deeply personal episode, I open up about a hidden struggle many men face but few talk about—passivity, shame, and the internal disconnect that comes from breaking your own promises.

Years ago, I hit a wall. I had gone through a nervous breakdown, lost the use of my arms, and spiraled into years of depression and disengagement. I wasn’t chasing anything meaningful, I wasn’t pushing myself, and most importantly—I wasn’t proud of the man I was becoming. Not because of some public failure, but because I kept letting myself down in small ways… every day.

This episode is not a motivational pep talk—it’s a raw blueprint for transformation. I share the exact moment I realized my lack of self-respect was tied to my passivity and how rebuilding my mindset, identity, and discipline—one tiny habit at a time—completely changed my life. If you’re feeling stuck, fragile, or just tired of not feeling like the man you know you were called to be, this conversation is for you.
