Welcome to The Men Collective Podcast, where you will learn how to improve your life and be a better man.  This podcast is not for people who want results maybe "someday". If you're committed to being a better man right now, then you've come to the right place. New episodes are posted every Friday. As men, we have many roles in life,  but we may not always be fulfilling these roles.  Our aim is to help you show up in all of these aspects of life the best you can. The concept of the man has been degraded as modern convenience has allowed weakness to flourish in society. Masculinity in it's purest form, the kind all men possess and the kind that can save the world, is under attack. We have to take a stand and engage ourselves in the fight for masculinity and restore it to its rightful place.   You are a man. You have a sacred duty to better the world by bettering yourself. It starts with you. And if you've read this far, it starts now.

Episode 33: How to Save The World Part 2
Men, it’s okay to have feelings. It’s okay to be affectionate, happy, or said. But to what end? Happiness is not enough. Self-acceptance is not enough. We selfishly put too much focus on being happy and loving ourselves, and not enough on why we are even here. We have a mission, and as men, we must carry it out. Masculinity has a purpose. Our duty as men is to be strong, honourable, courageous, daring leaders of mankind. To serve and better the world for those who come after, and for those who live here now. In this episode, I explore why men are the saviours or mankind, and why men specifically. What role do women play? How is this reconciled with my philosophy? What can you do to be part of history and better the world? Don't forget to subscribe and share with your friends!

Episode 32: The Saviours of Mankind
It is every man’s duty to optimize themselves to their fullest extent-- physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually. The man who chooses to ignore this duty dooms himself to a life of perpetual weakness and mediocrity. Men are the saviours of mankind. It’s up to us to restore masculinity. We must lift one another up so we may reach our full strength and potential. In this episode, I introduce the topic of why and how men can save the world, and how this relates to our descendants. Next week, you will learn more specifically why I believe this. Don't forget to subscribe!
