John Beede, Author of “The Warrior Challenge” joins Gino on The Magic Morning Show
How do we raise “good sons”?
Being a tough guy and showing no emotion…traits we’ve long-considered masculine…are no longer the ideals we want for our boys.
As we try to raise caring, thoughtful, respectful young men, this book will lead the pack, teaching them to become humans of a higher standard who embrace their emotions and feelings.
Unlike any book out there, THE WARRIOR CHALLENGE recounts engrossing stories about courageous men across history, providing real-life examples of modern manhood, and teaching messages about compassion and authenticity.
Author, mountain climber, and youth speaker John Beede disproves the “boys will be boys” mentality and encourages boys to be, above all, good humans. And this book applies to girls too!
John Beede set out to write THE WARRIOR CHALLENGE: 8 Quests for Boys to Grow Up with Kindness, Courage, and Grit to shift our shared definition and understanding of manhood and masculinity. This is a revolutionary and must-have book for boys who want to embrace who they are and find their best path to becoming good men! This no-holds-barred, action- packed, illustrated guide teaches boys to accept their own vulnerability and trust their heads, hearts, and souls.
By undertaking “The Warrior Challenge,” boys will learn a different kind of strength and what it means to be a man. Each chapter is accompanied by a comic book-style-artwork. Part of the challenge also is to ask boys to not take this journey alone, but to share it with either their parents, caretakers, teachers, or other role models in their lives. This book’s combination of interactive storytelling, real-life stories, and challenges will teach boys to be empathetic, vulnerable, and authentically them.
