    Whenever I (or one of my guests) introduces the concept of male initiation, it’s met with skepticism, at best, and a level of immense disdain and vitriol, at worst. But why is it that men struggle so much with the concept of initiation, that is to say that a man must learn from other men what it means to be a man and be held accountable to maintain his moral duty to protect, provide, and preside?

    My guest today, Jake Hamilton, makes the case for male initiation drawing on ancient initiations in some of the most remote locations on the planet. We talk about how to harness a man’s sexual desire towards productive outcomes, what the lowest form of a man’s identity is, where the patriarchy falls short, integrating your “shadow” (something Jung unpacks deeply), the difference between working toward the greater good and the common good, and how a man answers his own internal desire to be respected and desired.

    And, in addition to that, Jake is the author of his latest book, The Journey to Biblical Masculinity: 12 Paths Every Man Must Take.

    On a personal note, this is one of the most powerful and interesting podcasts I’ve done to date. Enjoy!

    Divorce Not Death

    I talked with a man in our brotherhood today, the Iron Council, briefly about his separation and potential pending divorce. I could see the pain and fear in his eyes. I could recognize it because I too have experienced the same feeling of despair and desperation. 

    Fortunately, for me, I am on the tail-side of that equation, but I can’t help but remember the pain, misery, and sorrow I experienced the day my ex-wife said, “I want a divorce.” I’m not going to pretend I can make you feel better about what you may be experiencing but I do believe I can help you get through the pain and suffering more effectively.

    That’s where our newest program which launces in October comes into play, Divorce, Not Death. When you sign up, we’re going to introduce you to guest experts that will cover the financial ramifications, the legal ramifications, and the mental and emotional toil you’ll likely experience over the next 12 months of confronting the breakdown of a marriage.

    We aren’t open yet but, if you go to www.divorcenotdeath.com, you can get signed up for notifications and early resources right now!
