We’re joined today by Clint Spear for a conversation about how you would treat today if it was your last day. Clint will also explain what SoM means to him.
A lot of men are just existing, not living. This was the case for Clint before he joined SoM. He was okay with where he was, but his heart was full of angst; his mentality, spirituality, and physicality just weren’t coming together. Coming from extreme childhood trauma and drug abuse, Clint is taking the steps he needs to reclaim himself and his life.
