A topic that gets mentioned on every episode of the Better Man Podcast is simple: How you can become a better man.
But until today, we’ve never had the ability to really pull back the analytics and examine the cold, hard data. That’s why I invited Ben Wigert and Mike Ritz from Gallup. For the past 89 years, Gallup has found analytical insights and trends about how to become happier, what makes someone more fulfilled, and how you can become more content with your life (despite the various struggles we all battle).
And today, Ben and Mike share some of Gallup’s findings with you, so you can use their data-backed insights to improve your life and become a better man.
In this episode, we discuss:
