Ep 23 Work to Make Your World Better, Not THE World
In this episode of Chasing Masculinity, host Colton Wutzke explores Rule #20: Work to Make Your World Better, Not THE World, addressing the overwhelming pressure placed on today's youth to solve global crises.
Learn to challenge the idea that young men are solely responsible for fixing the world’s problems, focusing instead on the importance of personal development and local action. The discussion dives into how global issues, such as climate change, poverty, and political instability, are vast and complex. The pressure to solve them can lead to stress, burnout, and paralysis.
Change starts with focusing on your immediate surroundings—your habits, relationships, and community. By taking small, local actions, you can create a ripple effect that contributes to broader societal transformation. Ultimately, improving your own world equips you to have a greater impact on others, making the world a better place one step at a time.

Ep 25 The Pursuit of Happiness is the Happiness of Pursuit
In this episode of Chasing Masculinity, host Colton Wutzke explores the truth behind happiness and why it isn’t something to be achieved but something to be cultivated. Many men fall into the trap of believing that fulfillment will come once they reach a specific milestone - whether it’s career success, financial security, or a personal achievement. However, this mindset creates an endless cycle of postponing happiness, always waiting for the next goal to bring lasting satisfaction.
This episode challenges the fallacy of destination happiness and explains how true fulfillment comes from the process of growth, discipline, and pursuit rather than the final outcome. The discussion covers how to break free from the "I’ll be happy when..." mentality, the dangers of tying happiness to external success, and how to shift focus toward finding joy in the journey itself.
Tune in to learn how to reframe your mindset and start finding fulfillment in the process of becoming the man you’re meant to be.
