Developing An Unhealthy Identity with Mike Gonzalez

Men often build unhealthy identities in an attempt to prove their worth to the world. That identity leads to unhealthy thinking, which leads to unhealthy actions, which lead to results that don't align with who that man desires to be.

In this episode of The Committed Man podcast, Mike Gonzalez, talks about the monster-like identity he created as a professional fighter. It wasn't until he retired that he realized WHY he worked so hard to identify the way he did. You'll hear about that.

Mike also talks about how he dealt with the extremely high expectations that he had of himself during his time as a fighter. Nothing was ever good enough, no matter how good it was.

After being in leadership positions and doing lifestyle coaching for over 20 years, I had a calling to turn my attention toward reigniting commitment in men. Us men have a deep desire to live as the highest versions of ourselves, while being loved, trusted and respected. I've created a lifestyle operating system that allows men to show up as the greatest version of themselves and live with unrecognizable excellence.
