Stop Living the Wrong Story: Become the Man God Designed You to Be in 12 Months
Most men don’t realize they’re living a story someone else wrote for them. Success looks solid on the outside, yet inside there’s a quiet ache, a gap between who they are and who God created them to be. This episode shows you how to stop drifting, reclaim authorship, and write the next chapter of your life with intention, clarity, and spiritual alignment.

Every man reaches a moment when he senses that the life he’s built is too small for the calling God has placed on him. In this episode, Ryan breaks down how to recognize that moment and what it looks like to step into the story God actually designed for you. You will learn why alignment precedes ambition, how daily formation shapes long-term legacy, and why a 12-month plan grounded in God’s purpose can transform your entire trajectory.
Ryan shares real stories of high-capacity men who have hit every target but still feel empty because they’re misaligned spiritually and emotionally. He explains how the Closing the GAP framework helps men get grounded in faith, live authentically, and pursue purpose with intention. As he says, “The next chapter doesn’t begin when circumstances change. It begins when you change.”
You will also discover why legacy is built through consistent formation instead of big moments, how your habits are shaping generations after you, and how the Five Pillars of Greatness give you a practical structure for spiritual discipline, relational strength, health, stewardship, and leadership.
The episode culminates in one powerful challenge: write the next 12 months of your life on purpose instead of letting the world write it for you. Ryan walks you through evaluating where misalignment lives, choosing daily actions that build integrity and discipline, and setting clear intentions in each of the five pillars so you can become the man God is calling you to be.
Key Takeaways:
- Alignment with God is the foundation of real transformation. Ambition without alignment leads to exhaustion.
- Legacy grows from daily formation. Small, consistent disciplines shape the man your family and community will remember.
- A 12-month plan turns calling into clarity and clarity into meaningful action.
- Spiritual formation is not self-improvement. It is obedience, identity, and purpose in motion.
- You cannot rise alone. Brotherhood and accountability accelerate growth, consistency, and impact.
