In this episode of The Iron Perspective, JD Denham sits down with Adam Allred entrepreneur, speaker, and mentor to unpack what it really means to be a man in today’s world. From addiction and heartbreak to spiritual rebirth and disciplined leadership, this episode goes deep on the gritty, painful process of transformation.
Adam shares how life’s most brutal moments divorce, faith crisis, and failure became sacred catalysts for change. Together, he and JD dive into suffering, self-respect, and why true masculinity starts with keeping your word when no one’s watching. It’s not about being nice. It’s about being strong, grounded, and built to protect, lead, and serve.
This is a raw call to arms for men to rise again: to rebuild from the inside out, to take responsibility, and to reject the culture of passivity. There’s no fluff here just straight truth and a fire that can’t be faked.
This podcast isn’t about comfort.
It’s about becoming dangerous for all the right reasons.
