The State of Man Is in Crisis—It’s Time for a Conversation.
The Excellence Above Talent podcast was born from pain, loss, and a deep need for change.
- Men are 3.6 times more likely to die by suicide than women. - Men commit the majority of violence in the U.S., including domestic abuse and sexual assault. - 90% of the prison population consists of men.
These are not just statistics—they represent broken families, lost lives, and a cycle of harm and abuse that must end.
As a BIPP (Batterer’s Intervention and Prevention Program) Director for four years, I’ve had countless conversations with men—men who believed abuse was necessary, men who didn’t even realize they were abusers. What I learned is that men want to talk, but they have no safe space to do so.
Society teaches men to suppress their struggles, to avoid vulnerability, and to uphold a toxic version of manhood. But silence is destroying us.
The Excellence Above Talent podcast is here to challenge the status quo. We’re redefining what it means to be a man—one conversation at a time.
Join me. Let’s fight for the future of manhood. Our sons are watching.
Your future isn’t waiting for one big break it’s being built by what you do on an ordinary day when nobody is watching. We’re talking about habits, discipline, and the quiet choices that shape a man’s direction over time, for better or worse. If you’ve ever felt stuck, unmotivated, or frustrated that nothing is changing, this conversation is a straight shot of clarity.
We dig into why small habits don’t stay small. Skipping one workout, avoiding one hard conversation, one more night of escape or distraction can feel insignificant in the moment, but repetition turns it into momentum, and momentum turns into identity. I share a simple framework that makes it real: every action is a vote for the person you’re becoming. Over time, consistency beats intensity because your life changes when your daily system changes.
We also separate comfort habits from growth habits. Comfort habits bring quick relief but long-term damage. Growth habits usually feel uncomfortable at first: communicating instead of shutting down, reading instead of scrolling, budgeting instead of impulse spending, showing up to the gym when you don’t feel like it, taking accountability instead of blaming. We close with practical steps to interrupt bad patterns, start small, and build one habit consistently until it becomes normal, plus reflection questions you can use this week.
