In this powerful episode of Man: Quest to Find Meaning, I sit down with international speaker and goal-setting expert David Hyner to unpack what it really takes to achieve big, meaningful success.

We explore why most people set goals that are too small—and how that keeps them stuck in mediocrity. David shares the life-changing moment that shifted his entire mindset at age 30, when he decided to stop listening to the voice that said “you can’t” and started asking, “What if you can?” From there, he’s gone on to speak to over a million people, write 30 books, and help others do what once seemed impossible.

Together, we discuss:

• Why doing beats dreaming every time
• The truth about SMART goals (and why top achievers don’t use them)
• How to set massive goals with realistic steps
• The importance of consistency, action, and “grunt work”
• Why surrounding yourself with the right people is non-negotiable
• How to bounce back from failure and build resilience
• What truly healthy masculinity looks like in today's world

David also dives deep into emotional honesty, accepting our insecurities, and the vital role of accountability and support. Whether you're lost, overwhelmed by options, or just looking to level up in your career, health, or relationships, this episode offers grounded, practical advice delivered with humor and heart.

If you’ve been stuck playing small, this conversation will challenge you to think bigger, act braver, and finally move toward the life you really want.
