You Built the Life. So Why Does It Feel Like You’re Living it on a Leash?
How hard-working midlife men take back control of their life and stop living afraid, without another book, another podcast, or white-knuckling it alone.
- You sit in your truck in the driveway before you go inside.
- You say yes at work, then snap at home.
- Your phone gets the best hour of your night.
In one free hour, you’ll see what living life on a leash looks like and how to take it off.
Yes, I’m inYou’re an amazing, badass middle-aged man who works hard and loves his family.
This hour is about building a life that matches who you are inside.
You say yes in the meeting, then drive home angry.
You hold it in all day, then blow up over a plate.
You scroll because you don't want to be alone yet.
If one of those hit home, this hour is for you. You’re not the only one.
In this masterclass, you’ll learn
How to stop feeling pushed around by life, and feel steady, sure and in charge again.
You don’t need one more book or one more podcast or one more plan that starts on Monday. What you need is to see what living life on a leash looks like. Then you need to take it off.
01
The Leash and the Chains
What's been holding you
Most days you react to the boss, the bills, and the mood at home. We'll look at the leash you can see, like the phone at night. And the chains you can't see, like 'a real man never complains.'
20 MIN
02
Taking the Leash Off
How you get control back
You can't get control back by fixing everyone around you. You get it back with two simple questions. We'll use them on something real from your week, live.
20 MIN
03
Living Unchained
What it looks like every day
Your home follows the man in the middle. You'll leave with two or three things to live by this week. Not forty-five.
20 MIN + Q&A
Give me 60 minutes, and you’ll go from feeling like life is pushing you around to knowing what’s been holding you, how to take the leash off, and what you’re going to do about it this week.
What comes at the endAt the end, I’ll tell you about my 12-week 1:1 coaching, which is for men who want help living unchained and not just hearing about it, and I’ll show you how to book a call with me. If that’s not for you, that’s okay, because you still leave with the two questions and your two or three things.

The shift
You’re not weak, and you’re not ungrateful. You’ve just been living life on a leash.
You built something real. The job. The house. The family that counts on you.
But somewhere in there, life started steering you. You hold your tongue at work. You walk on eggshells at home. Then one night it all comes out sideways.
That’s not who you are. That’s what a leash does to a man.
Here’s what changes when you take the leash off:
- You stop living afraid.
You wake up thinking about what you want to build, not what the day will do to you.
- You feel steady and sure of yourself.
You make the call at work and at home, and you don't second guess it all night.
- You lead your home by how you live, not how loud you get.
Your wife and kids feel calm when you walk in, not worried about your mood.
- You're there when you're there, at dinner, in bed, at the game.
You put the phone down at dinner and you hear what your kids are telling you.
- You stop waiting for next quarter to start living.
You start this week, not when work slows down or the kids are older.
Is this for you?
I’d rather lose a man in the first five minutes than waste his hour.
This is for you if
- You're a midlife man who works hard and loves his family.
- Life looks good on paper. The bills get paid. From the outside, it all looks fine.
- You feel pushed around anyway. By your boss, the bills, the mood at home, and the 11pm scroll.
- You were raised to figure it out alone. Asking for help still feels weird.
- You're a midlife man who works hard and loves his family. That's okay. This hour is still yours.
- You're willing to own it. Not blame it. Own it.
This is not for you if
- You're in a crisis right now. If you're in a dark place, please reach out today to a doctor, a counselor or a crisis line. In the US, call or text 988.
- You want someone to blame. I'll sit with how you feel, but I won't help you build a case.
- You want a quick fix. I trained bodies for years. Nobody changes how he lives in five days.
- You want one more thing to listen to. This is one you do, not one you listen to.
Your host
Hi, I’m Joe Speredon, the guy who set out the chairs anyway.
I used to brag that I slept five hours a night for fifteen years. I thought a real man suffers and keeps going. That was my chain. Then a mentor told me I was creating everything in my life. I was mad. Then I saw that if I made this, I could make something else.
- Married over 20 years. Dad of four.
- Turned 40 in 2020 with panic and hard questions.
- Started a free men's circle in Utah. Nobody came. Then one man. Then more than 80.
- Created the 30-day Unleashed, Unchained and Unf***ed challenge for husbands and dads.
- Personal trainer for years, plus 15 years leading and teaching.
80+Men in the room on the biggest night

Questions men ask me
Is it free?
Yes, it's free. There's no card to enter and no catch on the way in.
What's with the name?
It's on purpose. Unleashed means you were on a leash, and unchained means you were in chains. This hour is about getting out of all three.
What if I can't make it live?
Sign up anyway. The replay will come to your email. Live is better, but the replay works too.
How long is it?
60 minutes, plus time for questions. Block it off like it matters. Put your phone in another room.
Is this therapy?
No. This is coaching, and it’s not therapy. If you’re in a crisis, please reach out today to a doctor, a counselor or a crisis line, and in the US you can call or text 988.
Is this some tough-guy thing?
No. I don't do right and wrong. I ask whether it lines up with the man you want to be.
My wife sent me this. Do I have to tell her what I work on?
No, this hour is yours. Nobody makes you feel anything, and you don't make her feel anything either. This hour is about the one part you can change, which is you.
Will you try to sell me something?
At the end, I'll tell you about my 12-week 1:1 coaching and how to book a call. There's no countdown and no bonus for buying fast. If it's not for you, you still leave with everything from the hour.
I've read the books. Why is this different?
Maybe it won't be. This hour isn't more stuff to learn. It's two questions and a choice.
You’re an amazing man who works hard and loves his family. Your next step isn’t another goal. It’s taking the leash off and running your own life again.
Coaching, not therapy.
If you’re in a crisis, call or text 988 (US).
