EPISODE 11: Men at War-The Battle WIthin
In this powerful and deeply personal episode, Jason explores a battlefield most men never talk about — the war inside their own minds.
Inspired by the Netflix documentary In Waves and War, this episode dives into the invisible wounds carried by Navy SEALs, combat veterans, and everyday men who’ve never seen a firefight but face their own forms of hell: isolation, childhood trauma, fading purpose, burnout, and the crushing pressure to “be the tough one.”
Jason breaks down:
- Why so many men feel guilty for struggling
- What Special Operations warriors teach us about vulnerability and strength
- How ego keeps men wounded longer than necessary
- Why middle age dredges up old ghosts
- Why 80–90% of all suicides are men
- And what real brotherhood, healing, and rebuilding look like
This isn’t a pity party.
This is a call to arms.
If the strongest men on the planet can ask for help…
So can you.
This is the TOMA way: fix yourself, then go fix your world.
