Episode 23: The Undaunted Man

In this episode, we are joined by two coaches who facilitate The Undaunted Man, a men’s coaching program. In our discussion, we explore the power of recognizing the power of remembering who we are. We also discuss the need for men to have an environment where it is safe to authentically connect with each other, to feel seen and understood, to encourage one another, and to develop themselves as leaders in their lives and in the world. I hope you enjoy this episode with two amazing coaches, Geoff Laughton and Mark Johnson.
