107: Masculinity, Mental Health, and Moderation with Performance Coach Ben Hill

Send me a message 🤗This week I’m joined by Ben Hill, founder of Ask More, a performance Coaching service for professional men looking to up their game across the board, to talk about masculinity, midlife, and moderation. We dive into why so many men still struggle to open up, how beer o’clock has quietly become the male equivalent of “mummy wine culture,” and the surprising amount of time and clarity Ben reclaimed when he stepped back from drinking. From breaking outdated norms to learning how to “stand in your power,” Ben shares practical strategies for creating a life you don’t want to escape from – whether or not alcohol is in it.0:00 Ben's story4:19 Is it toxic masculinity?8:20 Questioning marketing messages12:10 Daddy beer culture15:32 Standing in your power18:26 Is midlife moderation the answer?21:34 How to get the most of your booze break27:17 Reclaiming your time31:16 Peeling back the filter34:29 Find Ben36:17 The BBQ-QHTTPS://WWW.LINKEDIN.COM/IN/BENHILL1/WE ALSO TALK ABOUT:Lucky Saint*Cerona Cero*Peroni 0.0*BEST EPISODE TO CHECK OUT NEXT#103.
