This episode is sponsored by my new book BRANDJITSU, helping you find, shape, and share your story with the world. In This Episode In this episode, Michael Dargie connects with entrepreneur and coach Mike Radoor, who has made it his mission to help men become both good at being men and good men. From Marbella, Spain, Mike opens up about his personal journey of transformation\u2014one that began with wealth, excess, and self-destruction, and shifted dramatically the moment his daughter was born. Mike shares candidly about the lifestyle he once lived: building and selling multi-million-dollar companies, chasing validation, and indulging in the darker sides of success. But with fatherhood came a reckoning. He realized he wouldn\u2019t want his daughter to marry a man like he was, and that stark moment of clarity forced him to change. That shift has become the foundation of his work\u2014coaching men worldwide through masterminds, training systems, and now his forthcoming book that lays bare his mistakes and lessons learned . The conversation explores what it means to live with discipline, honour, and self-respect in today\u2019s world. Mike explains the difference between external validation and inner growth, why physical fitness is an act of self-respect, and how resisting temptation\u2014whether it\u2019s food, anger, or comfort\u2014is a cornerstone of character. He also speaks about the necessity of brutal honesty, taking accountability for past actions, and finding freedom in vulnerability. From Danish comfort food to the crab-bucket mentality of his homeland, from bucket-list travel dreams to the importance of calling people he wronged, Mike\u2019s raw honesty sets this episode apart. He doesn\u2019t pretend change is easy\u2014he argues it requires pain, sacrifice, and confronting uncomfortable truths. But as he reminds listeners, that pain is the path to power. For anyone questioning their own path, or rebels in waiting ready to make a change, Mike\u2019s advice is simple: look at who you are, decide who you want to be, and kill everything that doesn\u2019t serve that vision Quotable Quotes \u201cI became a father and knew instantly\u2014I wouldn\u2019t want my daughter to marry a man like me.\u201d \u2014 Mike Radoor \u201cDon\u2019t come and say \u2018I\u2019m good\u2019 if what you really mean is you\u2019re settling.\u201d \u2014 Mike Radoor \u201cBring it to light and kill it.
