Rising Tribes Podcast
Welcome to the Rising Tribes Podcast — where raw conversations meet real growth.
Hosted by two former professional athletes turned husbands, fathers, and high-performance leaders, this is the podcast for people who look like they’ve got it all together… but still carry the silent weight of pressure, expectation, and self-doubt.
We talk about what most people only think about — the stuff that lives in your chest and keeps you up at night. From marriage and parenting to sex, business, faith, fitness, money, mental health, and the quiet battle of “am I enough?” — nothing is off-limits here.
Alongside our wives and powerful guests, we’re building a tribe of everyday warriors who are deeply rooted in character and relentlessly rising in every area of life.
This isn’t therapy. It’s not self-help fluff.
It’s honest, bold, unfiltered conversation — with people who get it.
Because the strongest tribes don’t fake it. They rise together.

EP 6: Off Script: Social Media, Hate, and How We Lead Our Families Through It
In this unscripted episode of Rising Tribes, Nick and Braxston step away from their planned topics to tackle something bigger: the tension, division, and anger dominating our world right now.
Nick shares the story behind a simple social media post that spiraled into controversy — and the conversations that followed, from online critics to childhood friends. Together, they explore:
- Why people create their own narratives around what you say.
- How to respond to hate without becoming hateful yourself.
- The lessons we pass to our kids about resilience, faith, and kindness.
- Why small actions — a smile, a compliment, a wave — can shift the atmosphere more than arguments ever will.
This isn’t politics. It’s about people. It’s about leading with love, seeking understanding, and remembering that we’re far more alike than different.
👉 Listen in, then ask yourself: How can I be a light in the darkness today
