How to be a man. Whether you admit it or not, it’s a question every man asks at some point in his masculine journey. The culture sends certain messages in answer to the question while friends, family, church, and others may tell similar or even opposite messages. It’s no wonder men are confused. On today’s episode, Daniel has invited Dale Thomas Vaughn of The Good Man Project to the show to talk about the journey toward becoming an intentional and masculine man who brings goodness to the world. It’s a conversation that will reveal that there are a lot of ways to get to masculinity but makes it clear that no matter the path, every man needs to get there. Most men try to figure out how to be a man in total isolation. There’s something about the way the culture has taught us men are supposed to be that causes us to keep our fears, thoughts, and feelings inside. The result is that many men who are trying to figure out how to be a man wind up being lonely and isolated. End this conversation Daniel and his guests, Dale Thomas Vaughn, unpack what goes into the isolation that many men feel and give some suggestions about what those men can do to get out of there lonely place and into a community that can bring them to a healthy masculinity that benefits the world. What is your active superpower today? One of the approaches that Dale Thomas Vaughn uses in helping men unpack their masculinity is this question, “What is your active superpower today?” The question is aimed at helping men discover their key strengths and areas of competence that will help them discover a deeper level of masculine strength and personal power than they knew existed. You can hear how the question impacted Daniel and what his answer to it did to lead to the creation of Broken Boner Radio, on this episode. How do you build a support network that will help you move in the right direction every day? As the old saying goes, no man is an island. We need Community. We need other men in our lives who can challenge us, hold us accountable, and move us forward with greater strides than we would have been able to accomplish on her own. But how do you find the men who can serve your life in that way? Dale Thomas Vaughn and Daniel Canfield talk today about what it takes to develop those kinds of relationships and how to identify the people who can and cannot serve your life in that way. This section of the conversation is worth the time it takes for you to listen to this episode of the podcast. Life can be really beautiful if you want it to be. It's time for men to stop settling for less than they were meant to be.

Dale Thomas Vaughn says that every man can have a life that is truly beautiful but they have to want it. Without the desire to create something better you will become stagnant and stop growing.
