Getting older doesn’t mean you have to lose power, meaning, or fulfillment. As the seasons of life change, you can continually discover and create yourself anew. Today’s guest, Randy Spelling, guides you to more freedom, success and happiness, even as you age.

Are you struggling with finding meaning, excitement or vitality as you get older?
At any age, getting older can be challenging. There are physical, emotional, psychological, and relational aspects that can knock you off course, and cause you to question what you’d taken to be true. The older you get it also becomes easier to be jaded, hopeless, fearful, complacent…
But this doesn’t have to be your path. As you age, you really can continually grow and evolve, becoming more fulfilled, not less! You can find freedom from expectations, “shoulds”, and predefined roles. You can step into more genuine and inspired versions of yourself, in each season of your life.
When you lose track of who you are, it doesn’t have to be a crisis. Today’s Man Alive Podcast guest, Randy Spelling, a Holistic life coach for entrepreneurs, creatives and business owners, talks about aging without losing yourself. Raised in Los Angeles, Randy was born into one of the most well-known families in the entertainment industry, the Spellings. But he didn’t find happiness or fulfillment there, so he did the work of finding his unique path and sense of purpose, and becoming a teacher, speaker and author.
In our rich conversation we discussed…
- How to update yourself in each season of your life, to meet what people and the world are asking for
- What happens when you stop staking a claim on who you are and loosen the grip on who you take yourself to be
- Exploring who you most want to become as you get honest with the reality of mortality
- A new masculinity that goes beyond the Alpha and cultural definitions
- How to recognize and navigate the fears behind our partner’s defenses and upsets
Randy is a soulful man who values depth and growth. He is a great example of a man who doesn’t shy away from the hard parts beneath the surface, and who continually finds purpose and meaning in his life.

Check out Honest Sex, a new book author Shana James.
Some say we are outgrowing marriage as a culture. However, the problem that author Shana James regularly sees as a relationship coach—and through her own divorce—is that many of us have not matured enough to create the emotionally-connected, sexually-satisfying relationships we long for.
Honest Sex teaches us what kind of honesty is effective for creating closeness, what sex actually is (rather than what we’ve been taught), and how to communicate desires and upsets to create more intimacy. By examining new ways to sustain connection with a partner, author Shana James illuminates a framework for relationships to start strong and get more intimate and exciting over time.
James is the creator and host of the Man Alive podcast and has a TEDx Talk, “What 1,000 Men’s Tears Reveal About the Crisis Between Men and Women.” As a relationship coach for 20 years, she humbly discovered the causes of disconnection and distrust in relationships, as well as how to build trust and keep passion alive. Her first book, Power and Pleasure: A Man’s Guide to Becoming a Confident and Satisfied Lover and Leader, supports men to be fulfilled in love and work. In this book, written for all genders, she uses her Master’s in psychology, DISC, and Positive Intelligence certifications to guide readers to create more honest and passionate romantic relationships.
