    Season V Experience #117 The SHIFT with Rich Abril

    In this episode of the FATHERS of the FUTURE Podcast, Luke Kayyem sits down with retired Master Sergeant [MSgt], United States Marine Corps, 21 years of service, Rich Abril, for a powerful conversation on self-awareness, introspection, leadership, healing, and what it really takes to rewrite your military career identity: through inner strength, humility, and forgiveness. The conversation is about standards, ownership, and showing up when life gets heavy; staying grounded in your values; and building a life by design, not by default. Rich shares lessons from his journey, the challenges that shaped him, and the mindset required to lead with love. Balancing sensitivity and emotional intelligence with masculinity and "violent energy," reconciling the warrior mindset with being a present, emotionally available father and husband for his girls. 9-11 compelled him to enlist in the Marine Corps, marking the first turning point of his "shift”.Using Rich's military-to-fatherhood journey as a case study of how discipline and emotional growth can coexist. KEYS to VICTORY inside this episode... 🎙 The power of brotherhood and accountability 🎙 Choosing growth and ownership over comfort and pleasureLearning to process and respond rather than react in difficult moments. 🎙 How military service helped him develop and master his own core values This is a call to every man who is always running and gunning at full speed ahead and needs to slow down before he has to.

    Season V Experience #111 Faith, The Foundation Of The Masculine Journey with Scott Lowman

    Scott’s journey is a powerful picture of what masculine faith in action really looks like. To carrying his testimony on his skin through tattoos that spark conversations, to learning, through deep loss, that true spiritual strength is found in surrender. As a husband, father, and entrepreneur, Scott embraces the grind while rejecting the “lone wolf” mentality. The KEYS to VICTORY inside this episode... 🎙 “God is my GPS, I manage the brake and the pedal.” -Scott 🎙God wants relationship, not religion, and that faith isn’t confined to a book or a building. 🎙He urges men to begin change with an internal inventory of how they spend time and energy, identifying inputs that don’t produce fruit. 🎙 Brotherhood, not independence, is essential for growth and accountability."
