About This Podcast
The 20s were for learning. The 30s were for building. The 40s are for unlearning.
We were taught to provide, protect, and produce using an old playbook. It worked for them. It does not fully work for us.
By 40's, the noise of who society says you should be fades. What remains is a harder question: What is the definition of a modern man??
This is not about more information. It is about shedding scripts you did not write. It is about values, identity, marriage, money, fatherhood, and legacy done consciously.
Almost Macho is a candid Hinglish conversation between Preet and Dhiren
We aren't gurus; we’re men sharing the life lessons we wish we knew in our 20s and 30s.
