Excellence Above Talent Podcast
The Excellence Above Talent podcast was started because of death trauma and pain. Men are 3.6 times more likely to commit suicide than women. Men predominantly do the violence that happens in the US. Men in the United States predominantly commit domestic violence and sexual assaults. Ninety percent of the prison population are men. I want to start a conversation to get clarity and insight on why this is happening. Families are being destroyed, lives are being lost, and people are hurting from the hands of men, men who were supposed to be the providers and protectors of their families. As a BIPP (Batterer’s Intervention and Prevention Program) Director for 4 years, I have had numerous conversations with men about why they thought abuse was necessary or did not even know they were abusers. The conversation had in our class helped open my eyes and the eyes of other men. I found out that men want to talk about these issues, but there is no platform or space, so we keep quiet, not wanting to challenge the status quo. The Excellence Above Talent podcast will do just that; it will challenge everything we think manhood is. Join the conversation and let us fight for the state of man because this next generation of young men needs us too.

Change for Men is Difficult but Must be Done!!
I am on a quest to find out why men are three times more likely to commit suicide than women.
I have lost a few friends to suicide, and it hurts.
One of the reasons I feel men commit suicide is the fact that we fight change. We see the need to change, but instead, we put our heads down and work, work, work in the hopes that when we look up, there will be change.
When that doesn't happen, we feel like no progress has been made, and we feel useless as a man.
It is Ok to slow down and reset.
It is Ok to change.
