Co-Host Tom LaGrave (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/honor) My first time guest Tom LaGrave is a retired Navy SEAL, clinical therapist and founder of The Honor Bound Academy, an upcoming learning domain to give adolescents the proper rite of passage into adulthood. In a post-modern world where it seems like everyone is in it for themselves and the end justifies the means, Tom is all about reminding us that honor and character still matter. In fact, the man who focuses accordingly is actually likely to be the one who gets ahead. How is present-day America affecting the mental health of our young people? What's the difference between young people growing up in the 70's and our youth nowadays? And what should a modern-day rite of passage even look like for young men? Did the rise of Secular Humanism really result in the downfall of honor and character? What's Tom's specific warning with the rise of what he calls 'social warfare'? Even though honor and character are related, they're not synonymous. How does Tom describe that link between the two? What is the driving factor for honor and character that almost everyone overlooks? How has the smartphone era specifically mounted an assault against honor and character? Will AI further augment our reality with regard to values, integrity and even our behavior patterns? And of course, how does a strong sense of honor and good character really, truly affect our relationships with women? Hint: It has everything to do with having a valid rite of passage. Most importantly of all, what do we as men stand to lose when we don't fine-tune our sense of honor and our character...whether we realize it or not?
