Man, Listen
This isn't your typical midlife podcast. From yacht rock revelations to maintaining peak fitness, from surviving business upheaval to defining success on your terms - Man, Listen covers the full spectrum of what it means to thrive in the second half of life.
Whether you're a business owner, a corporate veteran, or just someone who woke up one day and thought "there's gotta be more than this" - this show is for you. We talk health and wellness, finding your ikigai, navigating the "old yet not that old" zone, friendship, legacy, adventure, and building a life that actually matters.
Hosted by Jamey Mixson, fitness professional and entrepreneur who is living proof that 50+ can be your strongest, clearest, most purposeful time in life.
Real Life. Real transformation. New episodes planned weekly.
