Ep 25 The Pursuit of Happiness is the Happiness of Pursuit

In this episode of Chasing Masculinity, host Colton Wutzke explores the truth behind happiness and why it isn’t something to be achieved but something to be cultivated. Many men fall into the trap of believing that fulfillment will come once they reach a specific milestone - whether it’s career success, financial security, or a personal achievement. However, this mindset creates an endless cycle of postponing happiness, always waiting for the next goal to bring lasting satisfaction.

This episode challenges the fallacy of destination happiness and explains how true fulfillment comes from the process of growth, discipline, and pursuit rather than the final outcome. The discussion covers how to break free from the "I’ll be happy when…" mentality, the dangers of tying happiness to external success, and how to shift focus toward finding joy in the journey itself.

Tune in to learn how to reframe your mindset and start finding fulfillment in the process of becoming the man you’re meant to be.
