“Pro athlete turned men's health game-changer”

In Episode 30, we sit down with former professional football player Pat Woodcock whose journey began in Ottawa, Canada, where sports like hockey and football shaped his early years. He shares the highlights and challenges of his path—from earning a football scholarship to Syracuse University to navigating the demands of college athletics and academics. We dive into his time as an NFL free agent with the New York Giants and his extensive CFL career. His story is one of perseverance, purpose, and pushing through adversity at every level.

We also explore his transition into life after football—founding the Elite Performance Academy, where he trains top athletes, and launching the Elite Man Method in 2019 to help men take control of their health and hormones. For men over 40, he offers valuable insight on how to reset their fitness, nutrition, and overall well-being. If you're looking to elevate your performance, reclaim your health, or simply hear the inspiring story of a man who continues to impact lives, this episode delivers.

“Addict. Inmate. Servant of God.”

In this powerful episode 29 in “Men Pursuing More”, we sit down with Dennis Otto as he takes us on a raw and redemptive journey—from growing up in Hastings, MN to battling addiction, surviving a DWI, and enduring 110 months in state prison. Dennis opens up about the darkest parts of his life, including raising a family while struggling with addiction, undergoing open-heart surgery, and waking up from a coma. He shares how two weeks before his 48th birthday marked a major turning point, leading to the founding of All In Ministries with just $400. With 21 years of sobriety behind him, Dennis reminds us that the opposite of addiction is connection. His story is chronicled in the book That Man is Dead: How the Holy Spirit Transformed an Ornery Ex-Con into a Joyful Servant of God. This is a testimony of transformation, hope, and the relentless pursuit of purpose.

Check out Dennis’ book “That Man is Dead”.

“NCAA Champ. Lute Olson. 13 years overseas.”

In Episode 28 of the Men Pursuing More podcast, we sit down with NCAA Champion Bennett Davison for an inspiring and unfiltered look at his basketball journey—from a small-town kid in Sebastopol, California, with a 1.8 GPA and a spot on the bench, to cutting down the nets with the University of Arizona. Bennett shares how playing multiple sports and navigating early setbacks shaped his drive, leading him to knock on doors for scholarship opportunities and eventually land at West Valley Junior College. From there, his path took him to Arizona, where he played under Hall of Fame coach Lute Olson and helped lead the Wildcats to a national title in his first year. After college, Bennett chose a different route, spending 13 years playing overseas, where he learned valuable life lessons and developed a passion for mentoring others. He now runs Euro Hoop Life, helping current and aspiring overseas players. Bennett also opens up about his move to Dallas to be closer to his three daughters and his newest venture, Bird Basketball. This episode is a story of grit, growth, and using every chapter—no matter how challenging—to build something meaningful.
