About this episode

In this episode of the Ask Me Anything series, Ryan and Kipp explore what it means to build a meaningful life through  intentional action, structure, and the pursuit of legacy. They tackle listener questions on community, communication, personal  balance, spiritual leadership, and fatherhood - while offering grounded strategies men can apply immediately. 

Through stories about friendship, divorce, fatherhood, and growth, they reveal  how to keep life steady when things get  chaotic and how to preserve what matters most.

This conversation blends humor, wisdom, and vulnerability in a way only these two can deliver.
