When the noise of the world threatens to drown out our inner voice, it's the steadfast beat of mindful stillness that can guide us back to clarity. On this episode, we chat with IJ Makan, a martial artist with a purple belt in Brazilian jiu jitsu, a philosopher with a MA in Philosophy, and a kind man with a knack for practical wisdom. He is also the host of "Becoming Antifragile" podcast.

In this episode, masculinity is explored beyond societal norms, focusing on inner control and self-mastery. Drawing inspiration from ancient philosophers, we redefine the virtues of manhood, advocating for positive masculinity that prioritizes mental and emotional well-being.

As the conversation unfolds, we navigate the challenges of maintaining human connections, expressing emotions authentically, and integrating various aspects of our identities, and aligning our actions with our core beliefs.
We conclude with reflections on embracing life's chaos, pursuing anti-fragility, and cherishing each moment as if it were both a first and a last.

Tune in for a profound dialogue that celebrates the journey of personal growth amidst life's complexities.
