OM DENNE EPISODE
What’s really holding men back from living the life they want? And how can we start to break free from feeling stuck?
In this episode of Daring to Dad, I sit down with Ryan Olufson, a certified Primal Question coach who helps men uncover the deep, often hidden questions that shape their identity, relationships, and decisions. We talk about how childhood experiences influence our search for purpose, why isolation is one of the biggest threats to modern masculinity, and how fatherhood forces us to confront our own past in unexpected ways.
Ryan shares practical tools for breaking free from limiting beliefs, finding meaningful community, and learning to work from a place of rest—rather than exhaustion. If you’re feeling stuck, disconnected, or just searching for something more in your life, this conversation is for you.
Topics Covered:✔️ The Primal Question—and how it shapes your life choices
✔️ Why so many men struggle with friendships and community
✔️ The hidden impact of father wounds and how to heal them
✔️ The difference between therapy and coaching—and why both matter
✔️ How to show up fully for your kids (even when life is overwhelming)
