Podcast Season 2, Episode 2 - with Tim Perreira - 1/21/2026

This is the second half of one of the most powerful conversations I’ve had so far on Design Review. You may find that this part will land more clearly if you listen to part one first, but please listen/watch in the order that works for you! Tim Perreira’s story - from origin through depression, rock bottom, and reset to walking across America - sets the stage for everything we discuss in this segment.

In part 2, we talk about the Integrated Man, Tim's new men's organization, as a living program - what it actually looks like, how it’s structured, who it’s for, as well as why Tim and his business partner Chris built it the way they did. We talk about the role of community, of ongoing support, of having people who show up for you even when you are tempted to isolate.

Tim and I also talk about what it means to have coaches when you are a coach - and why that matters more than most people realize. And we talk about shadow work. About projection. About the subtle scaffolding beneath our thoughts that shapes how we see the world, how we treat others, and how we treat ourselves.

Near the end of this conversation, I told Tim that I really felt witnessed by him, and I meant it. I think you'll get a lot out of this episode - I know I did.
