(Special Episode) It's Only Downhill When You Turn Back // Trail Talk Thursday
I thought I'd share some thoughts with you from the trail. As mentioned in a previous episode, I've gone on a bit of adventure to scatter my dad's ashes. It's been a moving experience and has brought some healing. As always, being out in nature allows the mind to roam, the spirit to open, and clarity to come into the space too often preoccupied by the noise of urbanism.
Overcoming the Father Wound // Truck Talk Thursday

How do You Talk to Your Boys about Girls? // Truck Talk Thursday
There is a fine line fathers are trying to walk with their boys. No longer is "guy talk" acceptable when it objectifies women. Yet, dads still want to help their sons acknowledged beauty in a respectful way. If, on the one hand, we treat sexuality and physical attractiveness as a taboo subject, we do harm to our sons and daughters. However, if we are glib about it, we do harm as well.

Big is Out. Boutique is In. // Truck Talk Thursday
Good news for small start ups: Big is out, boutique is in! We've certainly found this to be true for Rustic and Main (my other business) and we're seeing it all over the place with our entrepreneur friends and small businesses we know on social media.

So You've Decided You're a Pagan? // Truck Talk Thursday
I'm surprised by the number of men in our Facebook group that believe in Odinism and other stories from Norse mythology. Several have left Christianity for the same reasons many are leaving: hypocrisy, legalism, division within the church...basically the very reason we need Christianity. In any case, I have a challenge for you: dig in to Christianity rather than giving up on it. And, be honest with yourself about your reasons for walking away.
Marcus Luttrell on Family & the Never Quit Mindset // The Wolf & Iron Podcast
You know his story. The Lone Survivor. An American Hero. Badass. But, what is his mission now? How does a man go from hell to the family life?
Marcus Luttrell and I dive into these questions and more. One thing is clear from this conversation: there is no quit in this man. It shows up everywhere and it's something we need more of.
Moving Towards the Emotional // Truck Talk Thursday
I don't like people crying. It feels weird to me. Don't get me wrong, I cry...or I should say I have cried. But connecting with people when they are in an overly emotional state is not something I enjoy. I find this to be true of most men. We're not the best at nurturing, and there are some biological reasons for this. But, this is an area I need to grow in, and I imagine and area you do as well.
I am a Christian // Truck Talk Thursday
So many men who are in positions of leadership and influence keep their faith "private". That always bothered me. I am a Christian. I let people know that about me because it influences my entire worldview. Being a follower of Jesus means I am created with a purpose, for a High Call, and should not base my potential upon past circumstances or what I see around me.
If you can't talk about your faith, defend your faith, reason with others about your faith, then your faith is weak. We're called to be salt and light "so they may glorify your Father in heaven." We can do a lot of good in this world without connecting it to our faith, but that's that what we're called to do.
