    On the final episode of MenLightened (for now) Chris shares his process on deciding to pause the podcast, and shares some words for the road.

    It's been a good ride. Thanks for sharing it! Though as Chris says today, it's time to double down and "put [his] mind and money where [his] heart is."

    Thanks for tuning in!

    Ep 17. The Male Bag #2: Re-optimizing for Fulfillment & Curbing Social Anxiety
    Jun 27 2023

    Why does it feel like something's missing from life sometimes, when, on paper, we should be happy? How can you start being more confident and lively in social situations, instead of clamming up and suddenly having nothing to say? And why does that happen?

    This week, Chris hosts the 2nd instalment of the Male Bag--the ongoing series where he answers listener questions. He addresses one listener who thinks he has it all, yet feels unsatisfied and can't put his finger on why.  Then moves to a second who wants to stop shutting down in social settings and start opening up, to feel more confident and free.

    Ep 16. The Four Tactical Virtues of Masculinity
    Jun 20 2023

    Did a "former" Neo-nazi satanist have some good ideas about masculinity? Chris thinks the answer is Yes...

    This week he unpacks Jack Donovan's "Four Tactical Virtues of Masculinity" from his book The Way of Men, sharing how they can be a useful way of understanding why we respect certain leaders, as well as pinpointing ways we can become better, more well-rounded men.
