Our guest this week is Lucas Krump. He was working as an executive leader at a Fortune 100 technology company and was climbing the corporate ladder, reaping the benefits of a solid paycheck and a stable career.
But no matter how much he had, he felt lost, disconnected, and empty.
He discovered that many men he knew felt the same way and felt a calling to walk away and start again.
As CEO and Co-Founder of EVRYMAN, his mission is to enable men to connect with themselves and others through the powers of community, self-awareness, and emotional development.
What We Talk About:
- Creating identity around achievement and how it doesn’t look like how we thought it would
- What is “The 2nd Mountain”?
- The frustrations in finding a men’s group of “everyday guys”
- Hanging onto friendships that don’t serve us at our new phase of life
- How lone wolfing works…until it doesn’t
- Building brotherhood and community in your late 30s
- Guys don’t usually feel safe around other guys
- The consequences and drag that happens when we over-index our relationship with our spouse
- The fear around showing your true self to another man
- The phrase “Less of a man” and what it means in society
- Walking with a beginners mind
- What are the key areas of emotional fitness?
- How to expand our capacity to experience a variety of emotions and build resiliency
