In this episode of the Manlihood ManCast, host Josh Hatcher speaks about the feeling of being stuck in one's life, dreaming about desired futures, and the necessity of change, investment and sacrifice to make those dreams a reality. He uses metaphors such as rafting down a river, filling a jar with spare change and the metamorphosis of a caterpillar into a butterfly to illustrate these points. Josh also announces a knife giveaway and encourages listeners to engage in a community discussion about their journey of change in the private Facebook group, the Manlihood ManCast.
