Description

Todd Adams has spent 30 years in construction leadership and is a certified life and leadership coach specializing in men's development. Since 2010, he's co-hosted Zen Parenting Radio, a top 10 kids and family podcast. Todd is the co-founder and executive director of Men Living, an organization creating spaces for men to connect authentically and vulnerably. He's certified through the Conscious Leadership Group, Tony Robbins Core 100, and the HeartMath Institute, and is a member of the Mankind Project.


Key Topics Covered:

  • The Great Male Friendship Crisis - Why modern men struggle with shallow connections and how Todd's golf weekend revelation led to creating Men Living after only 4 out of 30 men said yes to real conversation
  • Breaking Free from the "Man Box" - Understanding the invisible societal constraints that keep men trapped in outdated masculinity definitions and practical steps to operate from authentic self instead
  • Emotional Literacy as Life-Saving Skill - The four core emotions (anger, fear, sadness, joy) every man must master, why emotional intelligence beats physical health for longevity, and how vulnerability actually strengthens rather than weakens men
  • Creating Spaces for Authentic Connection - How Men Living facilitates daily virtual meetings, the challenges of open vs. closed circles, and why one in seven American men having no close friends represents a crisis requiring immediate action
