402: Developing Primal Sensitivity Through Hunting & Somatic Meditation with Dan Doty

Imagine mixing the toughness of a wilderness hunter and developing primal sensitivity with the mindset of a Buddhist. That's Dan Doty in a nutshell.

Dan has dedicated his life to supporting men’s mental health. Today, he's offering us a fresh take on what masculinity and fatherhood can look like when it’s both strong and emotionally present. Plus, you’ll hear what led one of his sons to ask for a month-long camping trip with him. 

Dan Doty has been a guest on Joe Rogan’s podcast three times, and for good reason. Enjoy!

Not able to travel? We got you. Join our next online event, built just for kickass dads who know there’s more to learn. FrontRowDads.com/summit 

FRD is solving a huge problem for dads. Our culture has turned “Dad” into a joke. Go ahead, google Dad and you’ll find Dad Bod, Dad Jokes, Dad Weed, etc. Culturally, it’s a Homer Simpson mentality, and it’s BS.  

Our community is built for solid men. Men with range. Those who are badass, and know there’s still more to learn, together.  

Most guys find it hard to find “their crew.” Finding other committed men, who are successful in life, and want to put family first – these guys are rare. Is this you?

In FRD, hundreds of men from all over the world show up for each other, to share resources and raise the bar of fatherhood (our core values)

If you’re reading this, you want to grow.  Podcasts are great, but guys… when you’re ready to stop just listening to content, and want to JOIN the conversations – the FRD brotherhood is ready for you.
