The Forgotten Virtue: Why Hard Work Is the Antidote to Modern Malaise
In an age where "hustle culture" faces backlash, this episode dives into a counter-cultural truth: the difficulty of work isn't a design flaw—it's by divine design. Beyond mere survival, hard work serves as the foundation for masculine identity and family security.
This exploration cuts through the comfortable half-engagement many men settle for—that state of going through motions without true investment or satisfaction. The spiritual roots of this struggle trace back to ancient wisdom that explains why work feels simultaneously necessary and burdensome.
