When a man hits rock bottom and meets God, everything changes.
In this raw, soul-level conversation, I have the pleasure of sitting down with David Patrick Farrell who's a Men’s work facilitator and force behind Men Rising Together/MRT.
We to trace his journey from addiction, violence, and courtrooms to sobriety, service, and spiritual devotion.
We unpack why so many Irish men feel lost, how to move from boy psychology to man psychology, and the practices that actually rebuild a man’s life: routine, integrity, brotherhood, and purpose.
In this episode you’ll learn
David’s rock-bottom awakening: court cases, close calls, and the grace that kept him alive
“You don’t believe in God—you know God”: faith, the Book of Job, and walking by faith not sight
Why Irish men suppress who they are(porn, drink, gambling) and how to open up without shame
Masculine Archetypes : King / Warrior / Magician / Lover (light vs shadow) and how to use them daily
What real initiation looks like today: men’s circles, sweat lodges, jiu-jitsu, breathwork—plus the role (and risks) of plant medicine and how they have benefitted DPF.
Emotional literacy & regulation: naming what you feel, building capacity, and processing grief without freezing
Aggression as fuel: channeling power into service, training, boundaries, and mission
The six fires/pillars (physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, relational, financial) and how to keep them burning without burnout
The humility of service: bringing deep work to men who can’t afford it—and why purpose > comfort
Books & ideas mentioned
King, Warrior, Magician, Lover (Moore & Gillette)
The Body Keeps the Score (van der Kolk)
Vipassana (Goenka) & temporary experiences of “oneness”
Biblical references: Job; “walk by faith, not by sight”

Joshua Ajayi (joshtalksbiz) is an Entrepreneur, Founder of Affinity Sales Training (AST), Former League of Ireland Footballer & Eternal Optimist.
In this generational conversation, we dive deep into synchronicity, meditation as “brain training,” identity creation, and the spiritual side of entrepreneurship. Josh shares how to select thoughts instead of being ruled by them and how the untethered soul by Michael Alan Singer had a profound impact on his life, why imagination is “the eye of God,” and how consistent inner prompting (affirmations, vision, and feeling) turns into outer results. We cover the lag effect, faith vs. fear, building brotherhood and real-world community, men’s mental health, the power of environment for identity shifts, and anchoring success in humility and God.KEY TAKEAWAYS:
Meditation = reps for the mind: train awareness so you can select thoughts instead of fusing with them.Repetition carries conviction: repeated self-image prompts the subconscious; feeling is the accelerator.Cause precedes effect: upgrade inner assumptions; reality lags, then conforms.Faith vs. fear: both are belief in the unseen—choose your direction.Identity loves environment: new places make new patterns easier to install.Brotherhood matters: real-life community prevents isolation and keeps standards high.Stay humble: success sticks when rooted in gratitude and God.
BOOKS & IDEAS MENTIONED
The Untethered Soul — Michael A. Singer
Think and Grow Rich — Napoleon Hill

This Episode is from a Podcast I featured on The Brian O'Loughlin Podcast.
In this powerful and honest episode, I sit down with my close friend Brian O'Loughlin to explore what real friendship looks like between men in today’s world.
We reflect on how our connection has evolved over the past three years and how it’s helped both of us grow spiritually, emotionally, and professionally.
From shared values and radical honesty to emotional safety and mutual support, we unpack the five core pillars that have shaped the depth of our relationship — and how you can apply them in your own life.
We talk about the importance of awareness and meditation in building self-understanding, how to align your actions with your values, and why many men feel emotionally disconnected.
We also discuss the power of vulnerability, non-competitive support, and how a strong male friendship can be a catalyst for massive personal growth.
This episode is a deep dive into what it means to be truly seen, supported, and challenged by another man who wants the best for you. Whether you’re in your 20s, 30s, or beyond, this conversation will hit home if you’re craving more meaningful connection in your life.
Listen now and lean into the kind of friendship that changes everything.

Rob Lipsett is a Youtube, Ted X Speaker & a Mastermind Facilitator
In Ireland’s first-ever cinematic podcast, Rob Lipsett delivers a raw and energising conversation exploring the mindset, habits, and standards required to build a powerful life.
The episode dives into Rob’s personal manifestation process, the importance of visualisation, and how harnessing emotions like gratitude and power can shift your reality.He unpacks why the partner you choose is the most important decision a man will ever make, how to balance love over lust, and why staying in shape is non-negotiable for long-term relationship success.
Rob speaks on evening routines as the foundation for a productive day, the link between physical health and masculine leadership, and how the body reveals more about a man’s character than his words ever could.
The discussion also touches on the epidemic of cheap dopamine—from porn to alcohol—and how it robs men of their vitality, confidence, and drive.
Rob shares why he believes 90% of problems disappear when a man becomes fit and healthy, and why someone like Donald Trump can keep going strong into his 80s: because energy, momentum, and mission keep a man alive.
There’s also powerful insight into testosterone, oratory, self-mastery, and the role of God and prayer in living with conviction.
These topics don’t just inspire — they lay the foundation for what it truly takes to Become The Man in life: focused, grounded, powerful, and ready to lead.

Gavin Meenan is Ireland’s #1 Men’s Mentor & Coach, Bestselling Author and Father.
In this powerful and deeply vulnerable second conversation with Gavin Meenan,
We explore the raw truth of masculine healing, emotional responsibility, and spiritual awakening. Gavin opens up about a hidden struggle with porn addiction and the shadow self that many men carry but few have the courage to confront.
He shares the transformational journey he's been on since our first episode — from working with a spiritual coach to uncovering childhood wounds and reconnecting with his inner child.
This episode dives deep into the contrast between the ego and higher self, the importance of stillness, the spiritual significance of service, and the ripple effect of healing across generations.
If you're a man who’s struggled with shame, secrecy, or a sense of being lost — this conversation will remind you that you are not alone.
You’ll learn how to:
Reconnect with your true self through presence and stillness
Face your shadow without fear or shame
Understand the link between childhood trauma and adult behavior
Channel spiritual energy into grounded masculine leadership
And most importantly — live a life of purpose over pleasure
This is not just a podcast — it’s a call to action for men to show up, own their truth, and walk the path of deep, lasting transformation.

We dive deep into how childhood labels shape adult limitations—and how to break free from them.
The conversation explores how your environment affects your identity and how self-image can be rewritten with intention. Together, they unpack the current crisis of masculinity and the resurgence of the warrior archetype in a culture that has long dismissed it.
From the deeper meaning of martial arts to the practical realities of sales, rejection, and building a brand based on character, this episode explores how men can step into power without compromising integrity.
They discuss the pendulum swing away from political correctness and safety culture and into a new era of strength, risk, and personal responsibility. Also we reflect on the masculine archetypes—King, Warrior, Magician, and Lover—and the danger of imbalance between them.
The discussion includes insights from thinkers like Robert Greene, Tony Robbins, and Jordan Peterson, and draws from lived experience in coaching, leadership, and business building.
This is not a motivational conversation. It’s a grounded, unfiltered look at what it takes to become a high-agency man in a world that often encourages passivity.

Anto Byrne is a Fitness Coach, Hyrox Athlete & Former Wicklow Hurler.
In this episode, we dive into an inspiring and raw conversation with Anto Byrne, covering a wide spectrum of life, transformation, and performance.
We begin by exploring how Anto’s life has drastically changed over the past year and what continues to draw Irish people to Marbella. He opens up about the birth of ABC Coaching, going back to his roots and passion, and why sales remains the king of all skills.
Anto shares his personal journey of starting therapy, working through trauma and grief, and using a reverse timelinemethod to better understand and process life events. He speaks candidly about living with the loss of a loved one and how that created a new sense of urgency in everything he does.
He emphasizes the value of accountability through coaching, the irreplaceable feeling after completing a workout, and the game-changing power of using tools like Google Calendar to structure your time. Anto argues that organisation is a superpower and that you’ll truly thrive in life when you are in shape.
We then dive into his take on nutrition, his relationship with alcohol, and recovery techniques such as ice baths. He shares his experience training for Hyrox in Málaga, his evolving view on marathon running, and his athletic background in skiff rowing.
Anto gets real about drive and determination, what motivates him, and his strategy for Hyrox Doubles, fuelling with the right nutrition, and the importance of electrolytes in performance.
We touch on his deep love for the GAA, his roots in Bansha, Tipperary, and playing senior hurling for Wicklow at just 18. Anto reflects on the lessons learned from team sports, playing for his parish, and the same group of lads—and affirms that hurling is the fastest land sport in the world.
He shares what it means to play for Costa Gaels, his experience running the half marathon in Rome, and the secret to maintaining a healthy relationship. We explore tweets from Dr. James DiNicolantonio, the power of a fit and sculpted body, and how you can feel even better in your 30s, 40s, and 50s with the right inputs.
From the power of walking to why boring is the new cool, Anto challenges the conventional definition of success. He highlights how 90% of diseases are related to lifestyle choices, and how being in shape impacts your confidence.
He wraps up with the importance of getting your blood work done, why everyone should be taking creatine, weight loss protocols, reigniting the competitive spirit with Hyrox, and where you can connect with Anto Byrne.

Dan Campion is a the Owner & Founder of Prymal Productions, Podcaster and an Athlete.
In this episode, we dive deep into The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy and explore how small, consistent actions lead to massive results over time.
We start by discussing the foundational principle of the compound effect and how it plays out in real life — including how you can jumpstart your income, life and success.
We explore the idea of being the exception, and how harnessing your focus can help you take over the world in your own way. From building success in life to understanding the negative ramifications of the compound effect, we uncover the hidden power behind everyday choices. Using relatable stories, like that of Scott, Larry, and Brad over 27 months, we illustrate how long-term habits create drastically different outcomes.
We then shift into the concept of personal responsibility — for your success, your relationships, and your future. Referencing Aristotle’s wisdom that “we are what we repeatedly do,” we unpack how unconscious choices shape our lives, and why tracking behaviors and habits is essential for long-term growth.
The conversation moves into habits, identity, and the importance of asking yourself “why” behind your actions. We emphasize the value of delayed gratification and how lasting transformation often happens beneath the surface before it becomes visible.
As we break down the momentum chapter, we touch on Newton’s Law of Motion and how consistency beats occasional greatness. Using the powerful imagery of the pickaxe cartoon, we highlight how persistence builds momentum — either in a positive or negative direction.
Finally, we explore the chapter on influences — how we are shaped by the people around us and, increasingly, by those we see online. We categorize influences into three types and distinguish between anchors and engines in our lives. The episode concludes with the final chapter: acceleration — a call to action to take ownership, surround yourself with uplifting people, and double down on the small things that matter most.

You will breathe a total of 22,000 times a day, but how many of those breaths are you conscious of? And what would happen if you became truly aware of your breath?
In this episode, Andy Mooney joins me to discuss the path to becoming a more spiritual being and how that journey can transform your day-to-day life by helping you become more present with every person you meet.
The conversation begins by exploring how to create intentional spaces and understanding how energy in a room can shape experiences.

The conversation moves into deeper spiritual themes, such as reincarnation, the eternal soul, and how to find meaning in life.

Dan Campion and Brian O'Loughlin reflect on an evening spent attending Ryan Holiday’s The Stoic Life tour.
We share key lessons from Stoicism and how its principles have shaped our lives.
The four cardinal virtues of Stoicism—courage, justice, wisdom, and temperance—are the foundation of a formidable mindset, helping us navigate life while maintaining self-control.
A virtue is the quality of being morally good and Stoicism teaches us to focus on what’s within our control, overcome negative emotions, live in the present moment, help others for the common good, and find opportunity in every obstacle.
