What It’s Really Costing You to “Stay Strong” | @KDBowe | Social Proof Podcast

Get your tickets to Podcast Summit '26 👇🏾 Discount Code - "Summit26" 👇🏾 https://podcastsummit.com 👆🏾👆🏾👆🏾👆🏾👆🏾👆🏾👆🏾👆🏾👆🏾👆🏾👆🏾👆🏾👆🏾 Most men don’t struggle with money. They don’t struggle with discipline. They don’t struggle with ambition. They struggle with emotion. In this episode, we unpack what happens when a man decides at 13 years old that he will “never cry again”… and actually keeps that promise for decades. We talk about: • Why most men are living on defense • The difference between transparency and vulnerability • What it really means to “block” an emotion • Why you can’t love from the heart if you’re transacting from the head • The hidden cost of always “staying strong” • Therapy, blind spots, and emotional guardrails • Why vulnerability feels like weakness (but isn’t) This isn’t a business episode. It’s a real conversation about masculinity, growth, marriage, fatherhood, and emotional maturity. Because at some point… The emotional bill comes due. If you’re a man building something — a business, a family, a legacy — this conversation might hit deeper than you expect. Drop a comment: Do you feel like you’re living on defense? Like. Comment. Share. Let’s have the conversation most men avoid.

Dr. Jamal Bryant and the Target Boycott

The internet laughed. The boycott was real. When Druski’s mega church skit went viral, millions joked about the culture of Black mega churches. But at the same time, Pastor Jamal Bryant was mobilizing thousands in a nationwide boycott of Target over DEI rollbacks. So which is it? Is the Black Church a punchline… or one of the most powerful institutions in America? In this conversation, we break down: • The Target boycott and its real economic impact • Whether corporate America still responds to organized faith communities • Why mega churches get mocked — and whether it’s deserved • The tension between influence, accountability, and public perception • What role the Black Church plays in culture, politics, and economic power in 2026 This isn’t just about religion. It’s about money. Influence. Culture. And who actually moves the needle. Watch the full episode and decide for yourself: Mocked… or powerful? Drop your thoughts in the comments.

I really love this podcast. I feel seen and inspired! Keep it going 💞
This podcast is accessible and game-changing

Your style is endearing and accessible. Let me explain. I downloaded every interview of Myron Golden I could find and then binge-listened. Of all those many interviews, your three - Ep 157, Ep 218, Ep 449 - are my favorites. (1) You are learning too, so I feel like YOUR peer rather than you being HIS peer in terms of the knowledge he’s sharing. That makes you approachable, like my friend. (2) The questions you’re asking, because you’re learning too, are the same questions I’m asking. Rather than you knowing it all already and just accepting what’s said or using industry terms the rest of us don’t know, you dig in deeper with every question. It’s accessible to those who are just starting. (3) Myron enjoys you! Ha. It’s awesome! Again, I’m comparing to the many other interviews I’ve heard these last 1-2 weeks. You two have a great vibe and banter, and I’m here for more! Looking forward to the rest of your podcast now. And thank you for what you’re gleaning and sharing.
Whoa!
