Jul 14, 2026 · 1h 10m
Summary
Ryan Michler hosts Kyle Carnahan to discuss the "upside-down game" of masculinity, arguing that true strength comes from embracing failure and accepting one's humanity rather than projecting a perfect image. They explore how men can lead with a "strong spine and soft heart," using personal hardships like divorce and bankruptcy as teaching moments for their children. The conversation highlights the importance of non-reactive parenting, where fathers hold frame through calmness and unconditional love instead of anger or control.
