In this short-form episode of Tapped In, we dive into The Lost Boys and The Ways Back piece, breaking down how Jiu-Jitsu can help boys and young men overcome the lost feeling. It’s important that we see not just what might be causing the problems but what we as leaders and a community can do to help.
What You’ll Learn:
The Struggles for Young Men
How Something Like Jiu-Jitsu Can Help

One Quote to Reflect On:
“A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for.”
Hope you enjoyed the article and the audio companion. I’m looking forward to continuing a these. Both for the growth of Substack but also for own personal development.
Thank you,
