Sacred Grit: The Podcast for Honest, Present, and Purposeful Living
Sacred Grit is where spirituality meets raw reality. Hosted by Jason Lyle—men’s coach, retreat leader, and former pastor—this podcast is for men (and anyone) ready to drop the mask, face themselves fully, and live with honesty, curiosity, and self-love.
Each episode helps you access the truth that sets you free: the unfiltered experience of the present moment. Learn practical tools for nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, addiction recovery, spiritual growth, and real self-love.
We talk about:
- Men’s mental health and healing
- Mindfulness, breathwork, and cold immersion
- Spiritual deconstruction and reconstruction
- Building healthy habits for body, mind, and soul
- Finding your True Self beyond trauma and conditioning
Whether you're deconstructing faith, overcoming addiction, navigating grief, or seeking a more grounded, meaningful life, Sacred Grit is your invitation to stop performing and start being.
This is not about fixing you. It’s about being with you.
Welcome to Sacred Grit.

Speaking to the Imposter: Letting Go of the Old Self
Do you ever hear that voice in your head saying: “You’re not enough. You’re faking it. You’re going to be exposed.”?
We all have an imposter voice that keeps us stuck in fear, shame, and old patterns.
In this Sacred Sunday episode, Jason Lyle shares his own journey with naming that voice, and invites you to do the same—not to shame it, but to take away its power.
Drawing on Paul’s words “the old has gone, the new has come,” and Jesus’ call to daily transformation, Jason reframes this spiritual work as gritty, honest practice: seeing the old self clearly so you can choose something new.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
✅ How to recognize the imposter voice that criticizes, shames, or holds you back.
✅ How to name those old voices honestly without letting them control you.
✅ How Paul’s teaching about the old self and new creation is an invitation to daily, practical change.
✅ How Jesus’ call to “take up your cross daily” is about releasing old stories and embracing new choices.
Reflection Challenge:
“When you hear the imposter voice this week, pause. Name it. Speak to it honestly. Then ask: ‘What would the new, loving voice say instead?’ Choose that path, even if it feels unfamiliar.”
This is the work of Sacred Grit: facing yourself with courage, honesty, and love.
