Most men in midlife stop dreaming—not because they’ve given up, but because they’ve lived.

Success didn’t look like what they imagined. Failure left scars. The unknown feels too risky. But here’s the truth: your second half doesn’t start with a plan. It starts with a dream.

In this video, Adam Landrum explores how high-achieving men can rewire their minds to dream again—even if they’ve been stuck in survival mode for years. If you’ve lost your vision, this episode will help you get it back.
