The No1 Reason Men Feel Stressed And Burnt Out And How To Fix It

Most men aren’t burnt out.

They’re just blunt.

And no one’s coming to sharpen them for them.

Way before I became a coach, I read The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. One habit stood out—Sharpen the Saw. It landed hard. And it’s the one I see most men ignore.

This episode is for every man who feels foggy, flat, or like he’s coasting through life on yesterday’s strength.

I’m not here to tell you to “do more self-care.”

I’m here to show you how to lead again - by sharpening your sword.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why “sharpening” isn’t soft—it’s strategic
• The 5 areas where men lose their edge (and how to get it back)
• Why sleep, strength and standards are your real power tools
• How your relationships and environment are either sharpening or dulling you
• What the FIRE CODE teaches us about staying sharp, focused and alive
