    Your Wife Wants You To Act Like a Man (Not a Boy) | The Warrior Kings Podcast Ep.95

    Is your wife pulling away? Does she seem distant, critical, or like she doesn't respect you anymore? The problem isn't your marriage. It's that no one ever taught you how to BE a man—how to lead, how to show strength, how to be the husband she actually wants. Most men go into marriage completely lost. Our fathers weren't taught. We never took a "How to Be a Husband" class in high school. And by the time we figure it out, it's often too late. Today, I'm breaking down the most critical aspect of a thriving marriage: Acting like a man, not a boy.

    We Chose a Different Life (Marriage, Faith & Risk) | Carli Riggs | The Warrior Kings Podcast Ep.93

    What happens when a husband and wife refuse to follow the checklist of life, ignore fear, and fully trust God with their marriage, dreams, and future? In this episode of The Warrior Kings Podcast, Michael Riggs sits down with his wife, Carli Riggs, to share their real, unfiltered journey through unconventional living, marriage, faith, risk-taking, and building a life most people are too afraid to pursue. In this powerful conversation, we talk about marriage and success, faith and purpose, unconventional living, bus life, dream chasing, and what it really takes to build a strong marriage while creating a meaningful life together. From living in a converted school bus with kids, to ignoring societal pressure, to trusting God when there was no plan B—this episode is about stepping outside the norm and choosing purpose over comfort. If you’re a man who wants to be a better husband, leader, and father—or a couple who feels called to something more than average—this episode will challenge you to rethink fear, faith, and what success really means. Topics covered in this episode: Building a strong marriage through shared vision Trusting God when there is no backup plan Why most people are afraid to live unconventionally How faith and marriage shape long-term success Ignoring societal pressure and the “checklist of life” Bus life, minimalism, and intentional living Masculine leadership, responsibility, and purpose This episode is for men who refuse to live small, marriages that feel dead, and lives built on comfort instead of calling.

    The 10 Motivation Principles of Unstoppable Men | The Warrior Kings Podcast Ep.92

    Struggling with motivation, discipline, and consistency? Feeling stuck, burned out, or tempted to quit on your goals, your growth, or your purpose? In this episode, I break down 10 principles unstoppable men live by—the frameworks that keep men moving forward when motivation disappears and quitting feels reasonable. If you’ve ever found yourself starting strong, falling off, restarting, and wondering “Why can’t I stay consistent?”—this episode is for you. Here’s the truth most people won’t tell you: You don’t lack motivation. You lack a system that survives hard seasons. In this episode, I’m not giving you hype or temporary inspiration. I’m breaking down what actually works when no one is watching, progress is slow, discipline feels heavy, and life gets quiet and uncomfortable. These principles weren’t learned from natural discipline or talent. They were forged through failure, lost momentum, setbacks, and the hard realization that motivation alone will never carry you to where you want to go.

    5 Marriage Mindset Shifts Every Husband Must Make | The Warrior Kings Podcast Ep.91

    If your marriage feels distant, the spark is gone, or your wife feels cold, checked out, or constantly irritated, this episode breaks down 5 marriage mindset shifts for men that can stabilize, strengthen, and even save your marriage. This is a direct conversation about marriage leadership for men, masculine responsibility, and why many modern marriages struggle—not because of love, but because of passivity. If you’ve ever felt like your wife has had to step up, carry the weight, make the decisions, or emotionally manage the relationship, this episode will explain why that happens and what to do about it. This isn’t therapy. It’s not about blaming your wife. And it’s not about winning arguments. It’s about becoming the kind of man your wife can feel safe, grounded, and attracted to again. In this episode of The Warrior Kings Podcast, I walk you through five critical mindset shifts every husband must make if he wants a strong, thriving marriage: From “I’m Right” → “I’m Responsible” From “She Should Appreciate Me” → “Her Experience Starts With Me” From “She Should Love Me As I Am” → “I Must Remain the Man She Chose” From “Marriage Is Supposed to Be Hard” → “Marriage Thrives When Led Well” From Passive Husband → Intentional Leader Most men try to fix their marriage by talking more, explaining more, or defending themselves. But marriages don’t heal through more words—they heal through ownership, direction, and leadership. When a man drops the need to be right and chooses responsibility, safety and respect begin to rise almost immediately. If you’re serious about becoming a better husband, restoring attraction, and leading your marriage with clarity and strength, this episode is your starting point. Listen all the way through. Apply what you hear. Become the man your marriage needs.

Inside this episode, you’ll learn why men must stop: Doubting themselves and sabotaging their own future Living in the past instead of building the future Engaging in negative self-talk that quietly destroys confidence Caring what others think and giving away their power Procrastinating while life continues to move forward Oversharing and failing to set boundaries Living without systems, structure, or a clear plan Ignoring gratitude and abundance Avoiding their purpose and calling And yes—before the comment section gets there first—we technically jump from #7 to #9.
