Dr. Lee Warren’s life experience includes multiple traumatic events, from serving in the Iraq War (conducting over 200 brain surgeries over 125 days) and returning home with PTSD, to an unwanted divorce and the horrific death of his teenage son, Mitch. By 2013, his faith and future felt fragile as hopelessness shadowed his daily routine. Then Dr. Warren shifted his mindset from patient to surgeon and began to engage the power of his mind to rewire his brain. Self-Brain Surgery reignited his hope, rebuilt his faith, and restored happiness he never expected to feel again.“Self-Brain Surgery isn’t a metaphor,” Dr. Warren explains. “It’s not a self-help plan or mere positive thinking. It is the mechanism of personal change and physiological change.”Self-Brain Surgery happens at the intersection of neuroscience and faith, where JT, Anthony, and Dr. Warren dive deep in today's conversation about how you can change your thoughts to change your life.The Life-Changing Art of Self-Brain Surgery: https://www.amazon.com/Life-Changing-Art-Self-Brain-Surgery-Neuroscience/dp/B0FD7PR4K7/ref=sr_1_1?nsdOptOutParam=true&sr=8-1 The Dr. Lee Warren Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@drleewarren Connect with Dr. Lee Warren: https://wleewarrenmd.com/ CONNECT WITH GREATMAN:Website: https://greatman.tv/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/ Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/ See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Men are uniquely wired for systemizing, problem-solving, focus, and action. What's more, the brain is constantly reshaped by what you repeatedly do, meaning habits like mindless entertainment, doom-scrolling, and porn can quietly rewire it in destructive ways. The good news: your brain remains moldable for life, and the instrument inside your skull can always be sharpened by the choices you make every day. Jump in with Stephen to the fascinating science behind the awesome male brain.CONNECT WITH GREATMAN:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Do you have a "third place?"A place separate from home, separate from work, where you can know other men and be known?Third places promote real conversations, repeated interaction, and sustained relationships. More than just somewhere you can go to see a familiar face and make small talk, a third place is an intentional environment that calls you higher while providing essential community. Join the conversation as JT and Anthony talk about a third place JT has been building over the past 6 months.So men: Will you take the initiative to be a part of a group, or will you take on the responsibility of building one?CONNECT WITH GREATMAN:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

You can’t become all God is calling you to be while walking in fear—whether it’s fear of rejection, success, commitment, or being fully known. In this episode, JT and Anthony expose that what you protect out of fear will ultimately control you ("The little foxes spoil the vines” —Song of Solomon 2:15). With practical steps to name your fear, confront it through intentional exposure, rewrite the narrative, and act anyway—grounded in the truth that “God has not given us a spirit of fear” (2 Timothy 1:7)—we challenge you to stop protecting your fear and start protecting your purpose.LEARN MORE:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

You were chosen for this moment in time.Will you rise to meet and understand it, or shrink back to let it overtake you?In this episode, JT and Anthony call men to understand their moment, lead courageously, and become the antidote to chaos, not contributors to it. They help frame freedom as responsibility, strength without abuse, and leadership that first cares for the soul and then guides others.

It takes risk to pursue real connection, and many guys are shying away from it. Showing up as a grounded, communicative man with boundaries, direction, and something to offer beyond your needs is crucial in today's dating environment. JT and Anthony unpack why relationships don’t give you purpose but reveal it, why rejection isn’t failure, and why listening to understand (not to fix) is the mark of a safe, capable partner. Along the way, we keep it simple with JT’s rules of life: don’t be weird, don’t be offended, and don’t be an idiot.LEARN MORE:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
