We’re Not Resilient…We’re Just Surviving (And That’s The Problem)
Are men truly resilient, or have we simply become good at surviving whatever life throws at us?For generations, men have been taught to push through adversity, carry their responsibilities, hide their struggles, and keep moving forward. But does surviving difficult experiences automatically make us resilient? Or have we confused endurance with genuine strength?In Season 3, Episode 14 of Four Titles, One Truth, Tommie Jones and Lance Taylor welcome entrepreneur, inventor, author, and resilience coach David Ask for an honest conversation about what resilience really means in the lives of men.David, the creator of StatGuardPlus and lead coach for Dr. Andy Garrett’s True North Resiliency Program, brings his personal experiences with failure, perseverance, entrepreneurship, and fatherhood into a conversation that challenges traditional ideas about strength.Together, we explore:Resilience vs. survival: Are we growing through adversity or simply learning to endure it?When resilience fails: What happens when the strength we’ve always depended on is no longer enough?Men and emotional strength: Have we mistaken suppressing emotions for being resilient?Grit vs. resilience: Is determination enough to carry us through life’s hardest moments?Fatherhood and resilience: How do we raise strong sons without teaching them that vulnerability is weakness?This isn’t a conversation about being tougher. It’s about understanding ourselves, recognizing what difficult experiences have taught us, and questioning whether the ways we’ve survived are actually helping us grow.Because sometimes the strongest thing a man can do isn’t to keep pushing. It’s to recognize when something needs to change.Whether you’re a husband, father, veteran, or a man trying to become a better version of yourself, this conversation is an invitation to reconsider what resilience looks like in your own life.Join the conversation: Have you ever looked back at a difficult period in your life and realized you weren’t necessarily being resilient—you were simply trying to survive?Share your perspective in the comments. Your experiences may help another man see his own journey differently.About Our Guest: David Ask:Entrepreneur, inventor, resilience coach, and author of the upcoming Guardians of Grit, David focuses on identity, self-awareness, perseverance, and helping individuals and families develop resilience from within.About Four Titles, One TruthHosted by two retired U.S. Army senior leaders, Tommie Jones and Lance Taylor, Four Titles, One Truth explores the realities of life through four perspectives: husbands, fathers, veterans, and Black men.Real experiences.

Losing Your Father Before He Sees the Man You Become
What happens when your father dies just as he begins to see you as a man?Tommie lost his father in 2004, only 13 years into his 30-year Army career—and just as their relationship was beginning to change. Lance had his father through almost his entire military career but lost him before retirement.In this deeply personal conversation, Tommie and Lance examine father loss, grief, father-son relationships, the need for a father’s approval, and what grown men still need from their fathers after building careers and families of their own.They discuss how a father’s presence—or absence—can shape the way a man approaches leadership, marriage, fatherhood, success, and some of life’s hardest decisions. They also consider how men who lost their fathers early, never knew them, or never felt truly seen can build the guidance and affirmation they didn’t receive.This is not a conversation about comparing grief. It is about carrying the love, lessons, unanswered questions, and desire for our fathers to witness the men we became.If your father is still here, what conversation have you been waiting to have with him?If he’s gone, what part of the person you became do you wish he could have seen?Hosted by retired Army leaders Tommie Jones and Lance Taylor, Four Titles, One Truth brings honest conversations shaped by four perspectives: husbands, fathers, veterans, and Black men.Subscribe and join the conversation.losing your father, death of a father, father loss, grief after losing a parent, father son relationship, men’s grief, grieving dad, adult son grief, fatherhood, becoming a man, making your father proud, healing after loss, men and emotions, Black men and grief, military veterans, military leadership, life after loss, parent loss, Four Titles One Truth, Tommie Jones, Lance Taylor
