Strong. Silent. Stuck? The BS That’s Holding Men Back with Jeremy Roadruck

What happens when a former factory worker, martial artist, and hypnotherapist turns his focus to helping men master their emotions, show up as better partners and dads, and stop suffering in silence?

This conversation with Jeremy Roadruck is a powerful blend of personal story, practical insight, and radical redefinition of what it means to be strong.

Topics include:

  • The belief systems that shape men’s reality (and how to rewrite them)
  • Emotional intelligence and the power of self-awareness
  • Communication strategies for marriage, parenting, and self-leadership
  • How to turn frustration into fascination
  • Breaking the cycle of shame, silence, and isolation in men’s lives
  • Shifting from “being right” to “getting results” in relationships

Takeaway:

If you're tired of defaulting to anger, shutting down, or feeling like you have to fix everything—this episode offers a new path. Jeremy shows us how strength, presence, and leadership start on the inside. It’s not about being harder—it's about being wiser.

More about Jeremy:

Jeremy Roadruck is a men’s mentor, relationship strategist, and multi-time best-selling author, known for his no-nonsense, results-driven, yet playful approach to helping men fix their marriages, reconnect with their kids, and lead with confidence.

A husband, father, international champion, and 6th-degree Kung Fu Master, Jeremy is also a hypnotherapist, neuro-strategist, former soldier, and former factory worker—so he knows what it means to work hard and play smart. He’s helped high-performing dads master the three relationships that matter most—life, love, and business—in weeks instead of years.

His newest book, Lead Like a King: The Proven Roadmap to a Stronger Marriage, Deeper Connections, and Unstoppable Leadership, delivers a proven system to turn respect, admiration, and connection into a natural way of life. Through his book, companion self-study course, and consulting, Jeremy shows men how to stop tolerating “good enough” and start leading with presence, playfulness, and power.

Life is too short for bad food, bad marriage, or bad business.

About the Podcast

Dads Interrupted
Real Talk on Fatherhood, Relationships, & Growth
What does it mean to be a good man—and a present dad—in a world that never taught you how?
Dads Interrupted is a podcast about fatherhood, masculinity, and the journey to becoming the man your family actually needs. Hosted by men’s coach and dad of 12+ years Fred Van Riper, Dads Interrupted dives deep into the conversations men aren’t having—but desperately need.

We explore what it means to lead with purpose, break free from outdated roles, and build the kind of relationships that change everything—at home, at work, and in your own head.

You’ll hear honest, real-world stories from men navigating fatherhood, marriage, emotional growth, and the myths that hold us back. As a Certified Fair Play Facilitator, Fred offers tools for shared responsibility, emotional leadership, and creating a home that works for everyone.

This isn’t about losing power—it’s about gaining something far greater: Respect. Intimacy. Legacy.

If you’re ready to break the cycle and build something better—this podcast is your starting point.
