Stand Tall In The Sight Of The Father

CATHOLIC LIFE COACH FOR MEN PODCAST

God should come first, but what does that really mean?

I’m Michael Jaquith. A modern Catholic guy, a podcaster, and a Life Coach. This podcast is dedicated to those guys who really want to grow and become the man God created them to be.

We’ll talk about both practical strategies for managing life, better ways to view and engage the world, and how to take one step closer to standing tall in the sight of the Father.

 

192 – Suffering and Marriage with Steve Thomas

“Marriage is the primordial sacrament” – a comment understood by almost none of us.

We know that marriage matters, intellectually at least.

But how do we actually live out our marriage? How do we capture that sacramental grace in a practical way?

Join me in this episode as Catholic author Steve Thomas and I walk through what it means to be a man who is committed to living his marital sacrament in the modern day. It is not an easy, or painless, path. It’s a cross, in the most painful of senses.

But it is also the most important thing we men who are called to marry can do with our lives!

191 – Music and Purpose with John Michael Talbot

The early church (and much of the modern Eastern church) had this strong Contemplative component that provided a powerful basis for Christians. This component is, sadly, mostly missing from our modern western Latin Rite Catholicism.

But what if what we lost is actually really important?

What if we need both contemplative time and community life at times?

Join me in this episode as Catholic music composer and community founder John Michael Talbot talks about his life with me. He not only shares a powerful story, he talks about how God was active in his life to bring him to a deeper and more powerful connection.

Music was a major part of his story and life. You can read about his music at https://johnmichaeltalbot.com/

190 – Differences Between Coaching and Therapy

One of the most common questions I get is what are the actual differences between Coaching and Therapy. While there are some common challenges between them, there are also some significant differences.

Coaching, much like in a gym, is much more of a push to do your best. Therapy, at it’s finest, is a gentle nurturing restoration of traumatic damage. There’s a time and a place for each, but there’s definitely a modern trend to turn to therapy too quickly for too many things.

Join me in this episode as I explore some of the major differences between therapy and coaching, both in people who work in each field and how the fields work. I’ll also give you some practical ways to help decide where you should go to get the help you need!

“It has been extremely helpful to have someone that can look at things from an outside perspective and ask objective, and hard, questions and then follow that up with some great resource recommendations. He has helped me question my own assumptions which has allowed me to get clear and focused on my goals and objectives to and be able to make changes in my circumstances and life.”
