I'M A MEAN MOTHERF#$%^&R 01/09/2021

I'M A MEAN MOTHERF#$%^&R That voice inside your head, if it is like mine, is not always the nicest. In fact, sometimes it can be down right mean. One thing I know I struggle with is, how I treat myself. /episode/index/show/milmakaz/id/17479280

CONTROL WHAT YOU CAN 03/31/2020

CONTROL WHAT YOU CAN During these times of uncertainty too often we worry about things that are outside of our control. Things we have no influence over, things we can’t change. However, if we focus on the things we can control, our thoughts, our own safety, our nutrition, our fitness, it can put us in the correct mindset to help deal with some of the uncertainty. /episode/index/show/milmakaz/id/13748402

Being A Dad 03/10/2020

You Aren’t Enough 11/05/2019

Becoming The Best Version Of You 09/17/2019

Becoming The Best Version Of You As men, we crave authenticity…We crave real…When we can finally figure out who are authentic selves are, it makes life easier. It makes life better.

Reaping What We Sow 08/13/2019

Reaping What We Sow We all want lots of things…we all want to have the dream house, the dream car, the dream relationship. We want to reap those things. But what have we sowed?

You Can Find Excuses Anywhere 08/06/2019

You Can Find Excuses Anywhere We all get busy, we all get tired…however, do those things stop you from getting better.
