You swore you'd be a different kind of father than the one who raised you. Then one day you caught his words and tone coming out of your mouth. You felt the same distance creep in at home, and wondered how much of him you're still carrying despite the promise you made to yourself. Living Fearless Today is a podcast for men who are done repeating the patterns they grew up with. Host Mike Forrester has stood where you're standing. Every week he brings honest conversations and practical tools for the parts of a man's life that rarely get said out loud: the father wound you never named, the anger that shows up with the people you love most, the marriage that's gone quiet, and the man you still want to become. The show helps you understand the past that shaped you. Then you take an honest look at where you stand today as a husband, a father, and a man. From there you start building the future you actually want, one choice at a time, instead of drifting into the one you were handed and currently living out. Episodes cover identity, anger, shame, marriage and fatherhood, relationships, self-worth, courage, emotional intelligence, legacy and purpose, and the brotherhood that the vast majority of men are missing. If you've looked for how to break generational cycles, face a father wound, handle anger as a dad, or become a better husband and father, start here. The cycle can end with you. Press play and take the first step toward becoming the man you needed when you were young.

    Letting Go of the Identity Everyone Else Gave You with Chad Petersen

    Chad Petersen spent fifty years in Texas being exactly who everyone told him to be, shaping his identity for him. He worked to be the model Mormon kid, trying to earn his father's approval, the funny guy in the bowler hat, the husband who married quickly because he never learned how to be alone. Then a divorce broke him wide open. He gave away nearly everything he owned and went on a cross-country trip across the United States. On the tenth day of the first international trip of his life, he pulled his suitcase off the van in a small Ecuadorian mountain town and told everyone to leave him there. Two years later, it's where he calls home and it's where he learned what performance had been built to avoid, to simply be alone with himself. In this conversation, host Mike Forrester dig into the difference between the identity you actually chose and the one that was handed to you by family, faith, society, and everyone else with a story about who you're "supposed" to be. Chad shares the practical tools he now uses and teaches: a three times a day random check-in that asks where am I, what am I feeling, what am I resisting, plus the practice of naming his recurring inner "visitors" (the Performer and the self-sabotaging Goalkeeper) so he can separate them from his true self. As well as the six-step ORIGIN framework, guided by animal archetypes, that walks men back to who they were before the world edited them. Chad describes the transformational morning he watched a turkey vulture spiral upward without ever flapping its wings, and the river below his balcony that's already exactly where it's supposed to be. That's the breakthrough he wants every man to have: you are enough right now, not because of anything you've done, but simply because you exist. It's the same truth he worked to give his kids, who came out to him first, and who told him he was the parent they don't have to talk about in therapy. A grounded, hopeful episode for any man tired of performing for approval and ready to find out who he actually is, discovering your real identity. What You'll Learn In This Episode: How to spot the language of a borrowed identity: the words "should" and "supposed to" as red flags that you may be living someone else's storyA simple three question check-in (Where am I? What am I feeling in my body? What am I resisting?) you can run three times a day to build real self-awarenessWhy naming your recurring patterns as separate "visitors" lets you recognize them as not you and loosen their gripThe difference between doing something because you love it and doing it for validation, attention, and approvalChad's six-step ORIGIN framework for getting back to who you were before everyone else edited youWhy you don't have to be "fixed" or perfect to start showing up differently, being hurt and present is enough, especially for your kids The Key Moments In This Episode Are: 00:02:47 - How a divorce that "broke him" led Chad to Ecuador 00:04:40 - Taking the suitcase off the van: choosing to stay after 10 days 00:05:39 - "Nobody knows me here" and learning to be with himself 00:06:46 - Growing up Mormon, marrying young, and the fear of being alone 00:09:25 - The road signs: when "should" and "supposed to" show up 00:13:04 - Walking through the awkward transition to being okay alone 00:18:10 - The three-question, three-times-a-day awareness practice 00:22:46 - Naming your "visitors": the Performer and the Goalkeeper 00:30:02 - The six-step ORIGIN framework and its Andean animal archetypes 00:35:14 - The vulture, the river, and "I'm enough because I exist" 00:43:49 - How to connect with Chad Petersen (thestorycatcher.com) Whether your anger blows up in the kitchen or burns quietly on the drive home, it's running a pattern you inherited.

    What a Year of Health Scares and Loss Taught Me About Legacy

    Nine months of silence. No announcement, without any explanation. The Living Fearless Today podcast just suddenly stopped. Behind that silence: a retina torn in two places, then a detachment in the other eye, then a third scare with his eyes, all stacked on ten years of constant ringing in his ears. Mike Forrester was staring down a question no man plans for: what happens if I lose my sight and my hearing? Now he's returning from that break, and the show that's coming back isn't the one you remember. Three doctors gave him the same verdict: there's nothing you can do. Wait for the next retinal detachment, come in, and we'll do more laser surgery. Mike's own dad got that same diagnosis decades ago and waited three months to see a doctor. His retina folded on itself, and three surgeries couldn't promise him his vision back. Mike refused to run the inherited script. He went in immediately, then went hunting for anything that would give his eyes an edge. And just as the ground steadied, February arrived: days spent over the next month between a hospital room and hospice, watching his mother-in-law fight for her life, sitting with the question that wouldn't let go. Do I want my children experiencing me the way I'm going through this with her? That season exposed the truth this whole show now stands on. Swearing you'll never be like your parents isn't a direction. It's a rejection, and rejection has no aim. Mike had circled the real mission after almost every interview - men breaking the cycles they inherited so their kids never carry them, without ever making it his North Star. Now he names the legacy that actually gets passed down, the thoughts, beliefs, and patterns trained into us, and why anger that never blows up can still be a grenade going off inside. The coaching is changing and the podcast are being rebuilt around one mission. The new podcast name will be revealed soon. And if you've ever caught your father's words coming out of your own mouth, this is where the show really hits home. What You'll Learn In This Episode: Trade "I'll never be like him" for a target you can actually hit, because rejection isn't an actual directionName the immediate legacy you're really handing down - the thoughts, beliefs, and patterns, not the moneyRefuse helplessness when the experts say there's nothing left to do and look for the possibilities where they existLet the hardest seasons ask the question that matters: how do you want your kids to view and experience you?Catch the quiet anger, because never blowing up doesn't mean nothing's exploding inside of youGet a brief glimpse of what's coming: the rebrand, the sharpened mission, and who this show now fights for The Key Moments In This Episode Are: 00:00:00 - Why the Living Fearless Today podcast went silent for nine months 00:01:15 - Facing vision loss and hearing loss: two retinal detachments plus ten years of tinnitus 00:02:05 - Repeating your father's patterns in a health crisis, or breaking them 00:06:20 - How to stop feeling helpless and start taking action 00:08:05 - What sitting with a dying loved one in hospice teaches you about your own life 00:10:10 - Why saying "I'll never be like my father" doesn't work 00:11:15 - What your children and grandchildren actually inherit from you today (hint, it's not money) 00:13:40 - Why the show is rebranding around helping men break generational cycles 00:14:45 - Explosive anger vs quiet anger in men: why neither is healthy Whether your anger blows up in the kitchen or burns quietly on the drive home, it's running a pattern you inherited.

    How to Reconnect With Your Spouse When Life Gets Crazy with Larry Pruett

    Marriage isn't just about finding the right person - it's about becoming the right person while building systems that strengthen your relationship daily. In this episode your host Mike Forrester sits down with Larry Pruett, a marriage counselor and coach who, along with his wife Sue, helps married entrepreneurs navigate the unique challenges of adding business stress on top of relationship pressures. After 36 years of marriage and over 20 years as entrepreneurs, Larry reveals how getting your foundational relationship right creates a ripple effect that actually helps your business grow. Larry discusses the critical importance of understanding your spouse's personality type and communication style, sharing how he learned to jump straight to the bottom line with his dominant, extroverted wife instead of boring her with spreadsheet details. He emphasizes that you can't work on your marriage without working on yourself, but you also can't focus 100% on yourself and 0% on the marriage - both require intentional daily attention and the understanding that you never fully "arrive" at mastery. Your marriage sets the foundation for everything else in your life, including how your children will approach relationships in the future. Larry demonstrates through practical tools like "connection time", weekly date nights and annual getaway retreats how couples can stay connected during the chaos of raising children, building businesses and life overall. His approach shows that when couples prioritize their relationship and communicate effectively, they're not just building a strong marriage - they're modeling healthy relationships for their children and creating the stability needed for long-term success. In this episode, you will be able to: • Master the art of understanding your spouse through personality assessments, studying your wife's interests and intentional communication strategies • Build sustainable connection rituals using daily 15-minute connection time and weekly date nights • Create long-term relationship vision through annual retreats and family mission statements • Navigate the entrepreneurial marriage challenge by balancing business stress with relationship priorities • Develop effective communication patterns tailored to your spouse's personality type and processing style • Establish proper relationship hierarchy with God first, marriage second, children third and everything else following The key moments in this episode are: 00:08:30 - The Plate Spinning Analogy in Managing Multiple Life Areas 00:12:15 - Understanding Your Spouse Through Personality Assessments 00:16:40 - Communication Breakthrough: Bottom Line vs. Details 00:21:20 - Why You Must Work on Both Yourself and Your Marriage 00:25:50 - The 15-Minute Daily Connection Time System 00:30:15 - Training Kids to Respect Connection Time 00:34:40 - The Danger of Child-Centered Homes and Empty Nest Divorce 00:38:25 - Creating and Using a Family Mission Statement Connect with Larry Pruett Website www.SideBySideBusiness.com Free Resource www.sidebysidebusiness.com/family LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/larrypruett/ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/larryandsuepruett/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/SidebySideBusiness Connect with Mike Forrester Podcast Website https://LivingFearlessTodayPodcast.com Coaching Website https://www.hicoachmike.com/ LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/hicoachmike/ Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@hicoachmike Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hicoachmike Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hicoachmike

    How to Overcome Self Doubt and Start Building the Life You Want with Junaid Ahmed

    Success isn't just about individual achievement - it's about showing up authentically and building genuine connections that raise everyone around you. I sit down with Junaid Ahmed, founder of HumbleZone and Home Studio Mastery, who demonstrates how being your authentic self creates opportunities and transforms lives. Junaid shares his journey from self-doubt and limiting beliefs to becoming a connector who helps entrepreneurs and podcasters show up professionally while focusing on what truly matters...storytelling and impact. Junaid reveals how his upbringing taught him that anything is possible if you put your mind to it, but it was stepping into spaces where he was celebrated and supported that helped him see his true potential. He discusses the power of reflection, especially as we mature past 40, and how surrounding yourself with cheerleaders and mentors allows you to overcome the limiting beliefs that we often mistake for normal life. His story shows how changing your environment and finding your community can unlock possibilities you never imagined. Your transformation accelerates when you stop trying to do everything alone and start building systems with team members who complement your zone of genius. Junaid demonstrates how delegating podcast production allowed him to scale from one episode per week to five daily episodes, freeing him to focus on his unique gifts of helping people create professional spaces and tell their stories. His approach to avoiding burnout through hobbies, community involvement and proper rest shows how sustainable success comes from balance, not just hustle. In this episode, you will be able to: • Master the art of authentic connection by showing up as your genuine self in professional and personal settings • Overcome limiting beliefs by recognizing them as environmental conditioning rather than unchangeable truths • Build effective delegation systems that free you to focus on your zone of genius while scaling your impact • Develop meaningful mentorship relationships through books, podcasts, and distant learning opportunities • Transform self-doubt into confidence by finding communities that celebrate and support your growth The key moments in this episode are: 00:05:45 - How Limiting Beliefs Disguise Themselves as Normal Life 00:09:20 - The Tony Robbins Infomercial That Changed Everything 00:12:15 - Key Books That Opened His Mind to Possibilities 00:16:40 - From One Podcast Episode to Five Daily Episodes Through Team Building 00:21:30 - The Challenge of Implementing New Habits Like Gratitude 00:25:10 - Why Rereading Books Reveals New Insights Over Time 00:28:45 - Balancing Multiple Business Areas Without Burnout 00:33:20 - The Importance of Delegation and Letting Go of Control 00:37:50 - Finding Community in Cycling, Beekeeping, and Other Hobbies 00:41:15 - The Role of Sleep and Naps in Sustainable Success Connect with Junaid Ahmed Website https://homestudiomastery.com LinkedIn https://linkedin.com/in/superjunaid Instagram https://instagram.com/superjunaid Facebook https://facebook.com/superjunaid Connect with Mike Forrester Podcast Website https://LivingFearlessTodayPodcast.com Coaching Website https://www.hicoachmike.com/ LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/hicoachmike/ Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@hicoachmike Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hicoachmike Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hicoachmike

You felt the same distance creep in at home, and wondered how much of him you're still carrying despite the promise you made to yourself. Living Fearless Today is a podcast for men who are done repeating the patterns they grew up with. Host Mike Forrester has stood where you're standing. Every week he brings honest conversations and practical tools for the parts of a man's life that rarely get said out loud: the father wound you never named, the anger that shows up with the people you love most, the marriage that's gone quiet, and the man you still want to become. The show helps you understand the past that shaped you. Then you take an honest look at where you stand today as a husband, a father, and a man. From there you start building the future you actually want, one choice at a time, instead of drifting into the one you were handed and currently living out. Episodes cover identity, anger, shame, marriage and fatherhood, relationships, self-worth, courage, emotional intelligence, legacy and purpose, and the brotherhood that the vast majority of men are missing. If you've looked for how to break generational cycles, face a father wound, handle anger as a dad, or become a better husband and father, start here. The cycle can end with you. Press play and take the first step toward becoming the man you needed when you were young.
