This week on the BraveCo Podcast, I’m diving into one of the most important callings we have as men: becoming the anchor in the middle of life’s storms. A few years ago, my wife and I walked through the devastating loss of her mom, and in the middle of grief, chaos, and family challenges, I had to learn what it meant to show up differently. Not to fix everything, but to become the steady presence my family could rely on. Being the anchor doesn’t mean having all the answers. It means learning...
In this powerful episode of the BraveCo Podcast, Jason dives deep into the tragic shooting of Charlie Kirk and the impact it has on men and society today. As a man of faith and experience, Jason shares his raw emotions, reflecting on the loss of a fearless truth-teller who stood up for freedom and faith in the face of hate. This episode is not just about mourning the loss of Charlie Kirk, but about what it means for men to stand up in a time when masculinity is being shamed, truth is under at...
Are you struggling to break habits that hold you back? On this final episode of our addiction series, I sit down with my friend Cole Zick to uncover the truth about overcoming addiction. We dive into why habits persist, the role of environment, and how small and drastic changes can transform your life. This episode isn’t about shame—it’s about strategy, mindset, and freedom. We explore life-changing insights from studies like the New York subway revitalization, Vietnam veterans’ heroin recov...

Best way to connect with BGR: https://bethelglobalresponse.com/tijuana-feeding-program/ In this episode of the BraveCo Podcast, I sit down with two of my favorite people—my son Elijah and his wife Ally—to talk about what it really looks like to live with courage, faith, and purpose in the middle of chaos. From the frontlines of Ukraine to disaster zones in Brazil, Turkey, and Mexico, their stories reveal what happens when ordinary people step into extraordinary risk to bring help and hop...
I’ll never forget the first time I heard Nate Larkin’s story. His honesty, his pain, and his redemption hit me in a way that few testimonies ever have. As men, so many of us live with secret battles—porn, addiction, shame—that we think we can fight alone. But Nate’s story proves that isolation only leads to destruction, while brotherhood and authenticity lead to freedom. In this week’s BraveCo Podcast, I sit down with Nate Larkin, founder of the Samson Society and author of Samson and the Pi...
When I hit 290 pounds and 33% body fat, I knew something had to change. I was stressed, overworked, and living in a constant state of anxiety. My health was failing, I’d just had my gallbladder removed, and the reality hit me — if I didn’t make a shift now, my future would be full of medication, surgeries, and limitations. But instead of diving into a brutal all-or-nothing plan that would burn me out, I decided to start small. Really small. I committed to just one workout a week and tracking...

We trace his journey from childhood s*xual trauma and early exposure to p*rnography, all...
I’ve spent my life as a pastor and counselor, helping men find strength, clarity, and purpose. In this episode, I kick off a game-changing series focused on addiction—whether it’s alcohol, porn, overeating, or prescription meds. I get raw about my own 14-year struggle with masturbation, porn, and medications like clonazepam—and how I learned that real freedom isn’t about willpower, it’s about rewiring our lives around connection. We dive into pivotal research, like the Rat Park experiment, w...
This week on the BraveCo. Podcast, I'm diving deep into one of the most critical topics in marriage: becoming the anchor. As a pastor, counselor, and man who's walked through my own challenges, I’ve seen too many relationships fail simply because men have no idea what it means to lead emotionally. We aim for the wrong things—sex, status, success—and miss the real target: building a home where our wives and kids feel safe, seen, and known. I get raw and real about the dangers of emotional unp...
In this powerful episode of the BraveCo Podcast, Jason Vallotton sits down with his father, Kris Vallotton, to discuss what it really takes to prepare sons for marriage and build strong, lasting relationships. The conversation explores how most men enter marriage unprepared, largely because they were never taught key values like covenant, ownership, emotional responsibility, and flexibility. Kris shares profound insights into the difference between cohabitation and covenant marriage, explain...
This week on the Brave Co Podcast, I’m joined by one of my dearest friends, Ben Armstrong to dive deep into what it really means to own your mess. Ben was deep in full-time ministry when he disconnected from his wife, and in that void, made one of the gravest mistakes of his life. He walked away with an affair that could have destroyed everything—his marriage, his kids, his ministry, and his identity. But in admitting the truth and choosing to live in the light, Ben began the toughest journe...
This week I sat down with one of my heroes and spiritual fathers, Danny Silk. If you’ve read The Way of the Dragon Slayer or attended one of our conferences, you know Danny carries deep wisdom in marriage, leadership, and communication. This episode is part of our Lead the Way series, where we’re equipping men to become the husbands their families need. I shared a story about moose hunting in Alaska where, after shooting a bull moose at five yards with just a bow and no backup, I realized so...
1In this episode of the BraveCo Podcast, I sit down with my favorite guest — my wife, Lauren, to dive deep into emotional connection in marriage. We’ve spent years leading marriage intensives, learning through trial and error what it really means to build a relationship that lasts. This week’s conversation is all about the “emotional bank account” — what it is, how it works, and why it’s the foundation of a thriving marriage. We talk about what it looks like to turn toward one another on a da...
What does it really mean to lead in marriage as a man of God? In this episode of the BraveCo Podcast, I sit down with the legendary @DrHenryCloud —renowned author of Boundaries—to dive deep into how men can lead with strength, emotional intelligence, and spiritual clarity. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, under-equipped, or unsure how to show up in your home, this conversation is for you. We talk about everything from fatherhood and marriage to emotional connection, leadership, and ho...
This episode hits deep. I sat down with one of my closest friends—Michael Koulianos—to unpack the kind of stuff most men never talk about. From the pain of being misunderstood by those you love, to losing the use of my arms for a year, we share the raw and unfiltered journey that forged us into the men we are today. If you’ve ever questioned your calling, struggled to lead your family, or felt like you were drowning in the pressure of life—you’re not alone. This conversation will ground you i...
In this week’s episode of the Brave Co Podcast, I share one of the most powerful and emotional topics we’ve ever covered: the transformation that happens when a boy becomes a man — not by age, but through intentional initiation and affirmation by other men. I talk about what happens when that moment is missing — and how we, as a community, can bring it back. We explore what it means to heal the “father wound,” reclaim masculinity, and become the protector, provider, and leader that God desig...
This is the most important message I’ve ever shared. Brian Tome: https://www.briantome.com/ For generations, young men have grown up without a father, without initiation, and without the confidence they need to thrive. I’ve seen it firsthand—men who look like adults but feel like boys inside. This episode isn't just a podcast—it's a movement to bring back something society lost: the rite of passage into manhood. At BraveCo, we believe it’s not too late. Last year, we introduced a 3.1-mile ...
The most transformational moment in a young man's life is when he is seen, accepted, and welcomed into manhood. As a father of three sons and a man who has walked through his own journey of becoming, I’ve seen how powerful it is to receive that blessing—from a father or a man you respect. Too many men are aging without ever feeling like they've become men. They carry a painful emptiness, unsure of their identity, still longing for validation. That’s why we created the Rite of Passage at Brav...
