The 360 Man Project Podcast: Recent Episodes
Stephen Dull
360 Man Podcast is a call to claim back our own power, to run freely and live our most authentic life possible with no fear, shame and shackles.Everyday we are in a battle whether we know it or not. We aim to win those battles. Past guests include Chad Howse, GORUCK Starcourse finishers, Crossfit Coach Ben Olin, Author Bill Perkins, Navy SEAL Brad Mcleod. If you’re ready to get better as a man, this is the show for you.
In this episode, I reveal that I am struggling with anxiety issues, but more importantly, I go step by step into how I deal with them. I believe that the first one is the most critical of all, and sets the tone for the other two.
There are three very critical ways that a man can deal with anxiety and they have been proved over and over in my own life.
They are as follows:
Pray: Men are encouraged to pray without ceasing, and to be anxious for nothing, but by prayer, we are to make our requests known to God.
Get Outside: We are adventurers and warriors at heart. We were not meant for cubicles and chairs. When we connect with nature, we are reminded of our identity.
Physical Fitness: This doesn’t get enough focus, especially for Christian men. I don’t believe that any man should go through life without exercise.
In this episode we take a look at a passage in the Bible where Jesus is alone praying in the garden of Gethsemane.
His friends fall asleep, and then he is betrayed. During his betrayal, Jesus does not run from hos captors, but instead stands and confronts them. He knows his mission, and he is alert and awake.
There are three points that are discussed:
What do you need to give up?
What is preventing you from doing it?
What is your mission?
It is time to wake up.
In this episode, I talk to two veteran GORUCK Starcourse finishers. Jonathan “Bourbon” Burns, and Craig “Bambi” Springer give us some solid advice on rucking, and training for these type of Selection Challenges.
Bourbon has completed two Starcourses, Cincinnatti & Chicago
Bambi has completed three Starcourses, DC, Cincinnatti & Chicago.
Some practical tips for rucking:
Get used to the weight in your pack
Spend time on your feet
Beware of the thoughts that creep in
Train for the mental battles

If you find yourself feeling rejected I know exactly where you are and have been through this many times. This article is aimed at showing men how to step through this in a healthy way and to grow and learn from it.
I’m not perfect as I have clearly pointed out, but I do understand this.
It stinks to be turned down for promotions
It stinks to be ostracized by your peers
It stinks to be let down and rejected
When dealing with rejection, it’s easy to become bitter and bury yourself deeper into despair by assuming that people are rejecting you based on something that you are doing, or by their behavior. This isn’t always true, and our assumptions or observations can be way off.
There is a method that you can use when faced with this type of situation:
Self Reflection
Confront
Create Distance & focus on something else
Resolve
Take a listen as we walk through these in detail.
In this episode, I talk about one of the biggest things that men do. They compare themselves to other men,
I talk about who you should really be comparing yourself to and give some practical tips on how to break the habit.
There is nothing quite like carrying 40 + pounds of weight on your back for 12-15 hours.
In fact, it is so wonderful you will want to do it every day of your life...
Just kidding.
On a more serious note, that is exactly what you will be doing when you sign up for the GORUCK Challenge.

I believe that preparation is essential for success.
You have to know where you are going, and you have to do everything you can to ensure that you get there.
Preparation for something is almost always more important than the thing itself.
Especially when it comes to physical exercise.
Most people quit a workout program before they even have time to give it a chance. As you know if you have read anything about New Years resolutions, only around 8% of people actually see them through to completion.
Why do you think that is?
Everything that you want in life is going to take intentional preparation.
Stuff doesn't just magically happen or take care of itself.
If you want to succeed and start your days off right, then you need to remember these 3 things:
Get a Journal, and use it.
Set Your Clothes out the night before
Know exactly what your workout is going to be the night before

How can an average guy pay off debt and build wealth.
Pretty easily actually. Financial freedom at it’s most basic elements is very simple. The problem is it’s really hard to discipline yourself and to actually follow through.

In this episode I talk about the 5 biggest regrets that every man must avoid if he wants to be the man he was made to be.
There are always hindrances and obstacles in a mans life that can keep him from reaching his goals, or staying focused. There are also those things that will slowly chip away at our souls.
These are called regrets.
If were not careful we will start blaming others for the regrets that we have because we were too scared or unsure of ourselves to carry out the lives we were meant to live.
In this episode I talk about the man you are, the man you were made to be (The Warrior) and the thief (The man or thing, that tries to prevent you from being the Warrior).
Most men have no idea that they are in a fight, that there is a battle going on every single day.
If a man does not understand this, then he is going to lose every single battle. The battle for his health, fitness, body, mind and spiritual health.
I talk about 4 things that can help you fight the battles and win.
Thanks for listening.

Chad teaches men what to look out for, what they can do to increase testosterone, and how to live a better life.
We Live in a consumer driven culture. Everyday we are bombarded with messages telling us what we should do, buy and wear. It often leads us to trade the things we want most for the small things that we don't really need. We do that because we have a problem with instant gratification.
