- So relatable!
Even though I’m a mom, not a dad, the episode on mental fitness interviewing Colin Thompson gave me a lot of great takeaways.

United States20 days ago - For Any Dad Trying to Do Better
This podcast is a great reminder that life is bigger than work — which, honestly, some of us need tattooed on our foreheads. If you have kids, it doesn’t just tell you to show up differently; it gives you a real sense of how to start.
Apple Podcasts5Sunshine ScribeUnited Statesa month ago - A win for men
The primal 5 is not a new concept to me, although I haven’t heard it stated that way before. However, when the guest said, “we live in a time that doesn’t match our biology,” I was hooked and had to hear more. Gap to Gig podcast is restoring focus and results on issues impacting men after 16 years since the start of the mythopoetic men’s movement and Shepherd Bliss said men should act less like men. That movement is destroying men and boys. This podcast is undoing the damage. Well done!
