Man Up: Becoming the Man You Respect...and Women Want | Ep 174
from The Asian Dating Podcast · host May Bugenhagen
In this episode, I sit down with self-sabotage expert and entrepreneur Mike Radoor to explore a powerful question: “Am I the man that I admire?” We dive into what truly defines a high-value man—from self-respect, discipline, and physical health to emotional awareness and relationship dynamics. Mike shares his journey from building multi-million-dollar companies while struggling internally, to transforming his life through accountability, fatherhood, and Stoic principles. We talk about why many high-achieving men still feel stuck, how to stop chasing and start attracting, and what it really takes to become a man worthy of the life—and partner—you want.0:00 Intro to Mike Radoor2:30 Realizing you are not a good man4:06 Mike’s mission: help high achieving men, rock bottom moment5:56 How do men know they need help?11:00 Men have a tougher time being single?13:20 Men can’t have platonic female friends17:00 Merging with your partner well20:00 Self-respect comes from your physical shape27:01 Get in good shape for your kid’s sake!
