From Boys to Men: A Journey Through Masculinity
From Boys to Men is a podcast about the embodied journey of masculinity.
Season 1, titled UNCUT, focused on the raw and often unspoken realities of male puberty — exploring shame, sexuality, and the body through a somatic lens.
Now, in Season 2, we expand the conversation. From grief and addiction to love, longing, and emotional intimacy, we explore the evolving terrain of manhood beyond adolescence.
Through storytelling, music, and honest reflection, this podcast is a space to unshame the masculine experience — not to define what a man should be, but to uncover what it means to be fully human in a male body.

[S2 E3] Walking as a Rite of Passage
At age 30, I set out on foot and walked over 220 miles from Fort Collins to Pueblo, Colorado. For two weeks, I moved through landscapes, grief, longing, and memory — and in doing so, I crossed a threshold into a deeper experience of manhood.
In this episode, I reflect on that pilgrimage as my first true rite of passage. I speak about the profound mentorship of Jonathon Stalls of Intrinsic Paths, the power of land-based healing, and the songs that emerged as my voice liberated itself through walking.
We live in a society that offers men very few real initiations. This was mine — a journey that reminded me: I have what it takes.
This episode includes live performances of:
- “We the Same Family”
- “Ocean of Our Dreams”
Whether you're longing for a rite of passage of your own, or curious what it means to walk toward the man you truly are, this story is for you.
