When we talk about manhood, feminism, and fatherhood, we’re really talking about identity, legacy, and connection. The problem? Our culture twisted that conversation — slandering men, confusing strength with toxicity, and silencing what should’ve been sacred.
But what if masculinity, in its truest form, was never the enemy?
This week on Rooted Warriors, Luke joins us for a powerful, unscripted conversation about fatherhood, identity, faith, and pressure — and what it means to lead a family without losing yourself in the process. No script. No polish. Just the kind of truth most families never speak out loud.
We’re asking:
What does it mean to be the backbone of a home without being broken by it?
How do you raise sons who lead with honor — and daughters who never lower their standards?
What does healthy masculinity look like when it’s not hiding behind ego?
Luke doesn’t speak as a pastor, guru, or coach. He speaks as a man who’s been humbled, shaped, and changed — and who knows what it’s like to carry more than you can name.
This one’s for the men trying to be better than what the world expected and the women who want to understand the version of manhood no one talks about.
