Welcome to The Jonnie Jensen Show, the podcast for business-owning and career minded dads who want to create success at home and work so they can feel like the man and dad they want to be.
Modern Dads often put themselves last, thinking if they can just be enough for everyone else then it will make them happy and successful. But you can't pour from an empty cup.
When you are more for yourself first - mentally, physically, emotionally strong - then you can be more for others. It does not work the other way around.
Instead of going it alone you need a system, structure and accountability. With the High Value Man System For Living you get a proven process along with the friendship and support from other like minded men.
Jonnie is a divorced business owning dad, thriving in this chapter of life. He is also the founder and Head Coach at the High Value Man Project.

In this episode, Jonnie breaks down one of the hardest realities for single dads at Christmas – the pressure, the emotion, the logistics and the loneliness – and shows how you can turn it into something genuinely magical instead of miserable.
Through lived stories, raw experiences and real-world examples from divorcing dads, co-parenting dads and dads navigating their first year alone, Jonnie unpacks the seven truths that shift Christmas from painful to powerful.
This one is a grounded reminder that Christmas isn’t defined by a date, an ex, or a court order – it’s defined by you. Your mindset. Your leadership.
Your willingness to create joy even in a tough season.
It’s about owning your chapter, not collapsing under it.
Christmas amplifies everything – the stress, the pressure, the loneliness, the money worries, the feeling of missing your kids.
Most men either:
Both create the same internal cost – sadness, shame, frustration, and that painful feeling of being on the outside looking in.
Jonnie breaks down why the emotional mind takes over, why the 25th isn’t the day to die on, why splitting Christmas Day is often a trap, and how you can reclaim the magic for yourself and for your kids – even if you don’t see them on the official day.
When you take the High Value route – leadership, clarity, responsibility – something shifts. Life gets lighter. Christmas becomes something you create, not something you suffer through.
And your kids remember the experience, not the date or the price tag.
“Christmas doesn’t define your future. But how you lead yourself through this one can.”
This episode is a direct reminder that you still get to build joy, connection and meaning – even in a hard year.

In this episode, Jonnie strips back one of the most common patterns men fall into – hiding out. Not disappearing, not collapsing… just quietly avoiding the things we know we should be doing. He also breaks down the flip-side: forcing things, overperforming, and trying so hard to get it “right” that we end up making a tit of ourselves.
Through real stories from his own week and everyday dad-life, Jonnie shows how easy it is for good men to slip into avoidance or overcompensation – and the impact it has on our confidence, our relationships and the way life feels.
This one is a grounded reminder that showing up isn’t about motivation or perfection.
It’s about slowing the moment down and choosing the High Value route – even when life is piling on.
Every man knows the feeling: pressure building, time tight, energy low… and suddenly you’re avoiding the thing you know needs doing. Or you’re pushing too hard, trying to look good, trying to force an outcome.
Both create the same internal cost – stress, friction at home, and that quiet drop in self-worth.
Jonnie breaks down why this happens, why it’s normal, and why showing up is actually the path of least resistance. When you choose the High Value route, life gets simpler. You feel lighter. The chaos calms. And your partner and kids finally get the version of you they can count on.
“Showing up isn’t confidence – it’s commitment. It’s being the man you said you’d be, even when the day feels heavy.”
This episode is a direct reminder that power comes from action, not mood.
And every man can build this skill.

In this episode, Jonnie calls out one of the biggest traps men fall into — the relentless self-talk that chips away at confidence and momentum. He reminds us that most of what we label as failure is actually progress in disguise. Through a raw story of a coaching call with a dad rebuilding his life, Jonnie shows how easy it is to focus on what’s missing instead of what’s working.
This one’s a wake-up call to stop beating yourself up and start seeing the man you’re becoming. Because self-respect isn’t found in perfection — it’s built in the rebuild.
The voice inside your head is either building you up or tearing you down. Most men spend years running a negative highlight reel — seeing only the misses and ignoring the micro-wins that prove they’re already rising. Jonnie breaks down why reframing that story changes everything: from your mood to your results to your relationships.
“When you start to tell yourself ‘I’m an incredible dad, friend, lover, man,’ you’re not lying — you’re training your mind to see the truth.”
This episode is a reminder that you are not behind. You’re in process. You’re exactly where you need to be to become the man you’re meant to be.

In this episode of The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie gets real about burnout - not the kind from overworking, but the kind that comes from life itself.
This isn’t a talk about time management or balance.
It’s about the chemical and emotional toll that relationship strain, family illness, loss, and constant pressure take on a man’s body - and how most men mistake it for being “tired” or “stressed.”
Jonnie shares his own story of redundancy, miscarriages, fear, and grief - and the moment it all caught up with him.
He explains what’s really going on inside your body when you stay in survival mode too long - and how to rebuild your system through clarity, courage, and commitment.
Because burnout isn’t weakness. It’s chemistry.
And you can’t outwork it - you have to reset it.
Most men think burnout starts in the office, but the real danger starts at home.
When cortisol and adrenaline stay high, your body never switches off.
Sleep breaks down, patience disappears, and motivation crashes.
What’s happening is your stress system is stuck on “on.”
You stop producing the feel-good chemicals — dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, endorphins — that make life enjoyable.
Jonnie explains how the High Value Man FIRE CODE helps men rebuild that chemistry and get back to leading with energy, focus, and purpose.
As he says:
“You can’t give from empty. You have to rebuild before you can lead.”
[00:00] Burnout isn’t just about work
[02:00] Redundancy, miscarriages, illness, and loss
[06:30] Cortisol and adrenaline — the stress loop
[10:00] Symptoms: fatigue, brain fog, low motivation
[13:00] Why distraction habits make it worse
[16:00] The rebuild: sleep, food, connection, movement
[19:00] The feel-good chemistry reset
[23:00] FIRE CODE - Focus, Impact, Relationships, Energy
[27:00] Final reflection: you can’t pour from empty

In this episode of The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie gets honest about motivation — what happens when it fades, when results stall, and when the thing you used to love suddenly feels heavy.
This isn’t another “how to get motivated” pep talk.
It’s a conversation about commitment, vision, and identity — and how midlife men can rediscover their drive when the fire goes out.
Jonnie shares how even he lost rhythm with the podcast, how small frustrations (lighting, results, confidence) spiralled into doubt, and how one phone call from his brother reminded him what motivation really means: staying true to the man you said you’d be.
Motivation isn’t a magic feeling — it’s feedback.
When it dips, something’s off. Sleep, structure, or self-talk.
Most men think they’ve “lost their mojo.” What’s really happened is they’ve lost connection to their vision — the man they’re becoming — and the environment that supports it.
You don’t need to feel inspired to act. You need a structure that makes action inevitable. That’s how commitment builds confidence, and confidence builds motivation.
As Jonnie says: “You can’t count on motivation. You earn it through momentum.”
[00:00] The spark fades — losing rhythm with the podcast and yourself
[02:45] When results stall and self-doubt creeps in
[05:30] Coaching his brother — how vision reignites motivation
[09:00] Identity shift: from “fat bloke trying again” to “runner, dad, leader”
[13:00] Why commitment beats motivation every time
[17:30] Using structure and environment to rebuild momentum
[21:00] FIRE CODE reset — Focus, Impact, Relationships, Energy
[23:00] Closing reflection: when you lead yourself, motivation follows

In this episode of The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie asks a simple question that hits hard: Do you do what you said you would do?
Most men don’t walk around thinking about “integrity.” But everyone understands keeping your word, counting on people, and things either working out or not. The foundation of that is integrity – and it’s what creates flow in your life. If you want more things to work, more opportunities to come your way, start operating from higher standards. Be the man others can count on. Most importantly, be the man you can count on.
Jonnie shares where he’s dropped the ball, the tiny “no big deal” moments that quietly cost you trust, and a simple way to rebuild belief in yourself fast.
When your actions match your word, life gets easier. You stop wasting energy cleaning up mess and start seeing momentum.
Out of integrity isn’t neutral – it chips away at confidence, strains relationships, and makes people hesitate around you.
You don’t need to be perfect. You need a simple plan you can stick to: slow down, make promises you can keep, and clean up misses quickly.
As Jonnie says: “Integrity isn’t fancy. It’s doing what you said you’d do – especially when no one’s watching.”
[00:00] The question that changes everything – can you count on you?
[03:00] Why “things working out” starts with higher standards
[05:30] The striker slump – how doubt creeps in when habits slip
[10:45] The cookies-at-the-station moment – tiny breach, big ripple
[15:30] Phone secrecy and micro-breaches that rot trust
[18:30] The real cost: confidence, relationships, missed chances
[22:00] The fix – slow time, make mindful promises, clean up fast
[27:00] Win the day – 3 meaningful tasks, celebrate, reset
[30:00] Mantra – “Around me, everything works.” And when it doesn’t, I handle it

In this episode of The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie shares a powerful real-life story about the courage it takes to forgive and the freedom that comes from completion.
Ten years after a painful chapter in his life, he found himself face to face with someone he’d quietly resented for years — and decided it was time to get complete. What followed was an emotional reminder that forgiveness isn’t about others… it’s about reclaiming energy, peace, and power.
Jonnie explains why harbouring resentment is like leaving a stinking turd in the corner of your life — toxic, heavy, and quietly sabotaging your energy — and how to finally clean it up.
If you’re a man who’s been holding onto something or someone from the past, this one’s for you.
Jonnie believes forgiveness and completion are the hidden muscles of courage.
Unforgiveness isn’t passive — it’s corrosive. It shows up in avoidance, tension, and that low-level resentment that seeps into every part of life.
Most men think it doesn’t matter because “the other person doesn’t even know.”
But that’s the problem — it’s you who carries the weight.
As Jonnie says:
“Forgiveness is the gift you give yourself. Completion is freedom. You can’t live a high value life if you’re still dragging yesterday’s pain behind you.”

Two and a half million Brits have signed “No to Digital ID.”
Co-host Glen Ocsko — who actually builds public-sector digital — says “about time.”
Jonnie Jensen isn’t convinced. Cost overruns. Scope creep. Breaches. And future governments changing the rules mid-game.
This is a straight-up pub-banter throwdown: does Digital ID make life easier or open the door to abuse?
Can Glen convince Jonnie (and 2.5m others) not to be concerned?
🔥 WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT
Most of us already hand mountains of data to Apple, Google, banks, and the NHS.
But a state-backed Digital ID? That’s different.
Get it wrong and you centralise risk, create a honeypot for hackers, and hand politicians a lever they (or the next lot) could pull for entirely new purposes.
Get it right and you cut fraud, reduce friction, and unlock faster access to services.
This conversation is about power, trust, and how we protect freedom while modernising the rails we all use.
👊 ABOUT GLEN OCSKO
https://www.linkedin.com/in/glenocsko/
Glen Ocsko isn’t just a commentator — he’s been in the trenches of government digital transformation for over 20 years.
He has worked inside and alongside civil service teams on projects most politicians brag about but rarely understand.
When Glen pushes back, it’s not theory — this is his wheelhouse.
🎙️ JUMP TO THE POINT
[00:01] – The spark: 2.5M signatures and why Jonnie’s calling BS
[03:20] – Crowd size memes, AI photos & why facts are losing to vibes
[06:45] – Glen’s case: microservices, not a giant database (and why that matters)
[10:30] – “Voluntary” vs “inevitable”: exclusion fears, phones, and fallback cards
[16:05] – Scope creep & future regimes: can guardrails actually hold?
[21:10] – NHS pain, OneLogin, and the promise of less friction
[28:40] – Estonia, India & lessons from real-world failures
[34:30] – Politics vs policy: dead cats, immigration, and messaging it right
[47:00] – Where Jonnie shifts (a bit): what would make this acceptable
[55:10] – Final take: progress with teeth — or pause until safeguards are real

Jonnie is joined by Lee Anthony Smith – investor, business buyer, and single dad who’s acquired 27 companies over the last 12 years.

Together they explore the battles of fatherhood, volatile relationships, moving to the UAE, and what it really means to be a Come Back King.

This short episode is an important message for all of us. Don’t tune out – these ten minutes could save a friend, or maybe even yourself.
I know because I’ve experienced nearly every side of suicide.
It was World Suicide Prevention Day this week. Arguably, it should be every day.
The stats should shock you: suicide is the biggest killer of men under 50. In the UK, 125 men take their own lives every week. That’s one every 90 minutes.
But here’s something we don’t talk about enough – how many men think about it without ever acting. That’s a brutal existence. Almost impossible to escape. And when one man is stuck in that loop, the whole family is dragged into it.
Thinking about suicide is not normal. It’s a clear sign of mental health struggles. A healthy, happy mind doesn’t go there.
In this episode of The Jonnie Jensen Show I share some essential thoughts, personal experiences, and practical tips for helping yourself or those around you.
Do not ignore your mind. Do not hope it just goes away.
Don’t accept “I’m fine” when you know a mate is struggling. And if you catch yourself about to say “I’m fine,” stop. Tell the truth instead.
Please share this with other men who need to hear it.

Most men don’t notice when they’ve slipped into Miserable Man Syndrome – but their partner does. Irritable, withdrawn, no energy for life, intimacy gone, escaping into work, screens or drink. It’s not who they want to be, but it’s who they’ve become.
In this solo episode Jonnie takes a hard look at the behaviours that make men difficult to live with and the real causes behind them – from stale relationships and work pressure to hormones, health, and habits. He unpacks the frustration, the avoidance, and the slow disconnection that creeps into midlife, before showing how to break the cycle.
Drawing on the FIRE CODE and 3XC Formula, Jonnie explains how men can take back energy, rebuild connection, and show up with purpose. Miserable Man Syndrome isn’t an identity – it’s a signal to reset.

Most men were never taught how to give a woman real pleasure. This episode changes that.
Jonnie is joined by Dr. Steve Bodansky - author of Extended Massive Orgasm. An incredible game changing book that Jonnie picked up 20 years ago. It contains secrets that every women wishes her man knew.
Steve has an amazing story of how the book came around and how he became one of the few people in the world with a doctorate in female sensuality.
Together they explore how to actually touch and lead a woman into deeper pleasure, why sex often breaks down in long-term relationships, and how to restore trust, intimacy, and connection.
You’ll learn why clitoral stimulation matters more than you think, how to touch for your own pleasure, and why skill - not chemistry - is what keeps the fire alive.
Whether sex has become a struggle, a silence, or something you’ve just accepted isn’t working - this episode gives you the tools to lead again.

Most men know exactly what they want: better energy, stronger relationships, more success at work.
The problem isn’t knowledge. The problem is showing up.
In this episode, I’m calling you out on the moments you’re hiding. The excuses. The “I’ll do it later.” The days you coast instead of create.
We talk about:
This isn’t about grinding harder. It’s about deciding:
Where do you need to show up, and what’s it going to take?
If you don’t show up, life gets heavy.
Resentment builds. Bad habits creep in.
Your kids feel it. Your partner feels it. You feel it.
That's the Low Value life.
But when you do show up with clarity, courage, and commitment, you unlock the High Value Man life:
Energy. Impact. Stronger relationships. More fun. More freedom.

Ever look in the mirror and know you’re capable of more, but you can't get out of the same old broken routines?
Elite coach Michael Serwa is not here to cuddle excuses. His stance is simple: “If you’re looking for an excuse, you’ll always find one. Stop looking.” He coaches winners with an elite mindset, not elite backgrounds.
We get into why asking for help is leadership, how to lead at home without control, and why confidence is a factory setting you uncover by doing hard things consistently. The blind client story will nuke self pity, and the mirror test will reset your standard today.
Heads up if you listen with kids - there's plenty of f-bombs in this episode.

Ever felt that gnawing frustration when you know exactly what you want — but you’re not doing what it takes to get it?
That’s the gap.
And the longer you live there, the more it eats you alive. Your integrity starts to slip, your energy drops, and you wake up wondering if this is all there is.
This episode is for you if you’ve been…
Let’s go.
When you know what you want but you’re not moving towards it, life gets heavy.
Resentment builds. Bad habits creep in.
Your partner feels it. Your kids feel it. YOU feel it every single day.
Most men think they have a motivation problem — they don’t.
They have a clarity, courage, and commitment problem. That’s the 3XC Formula.
This is about more than ticking off goals. It’s about becoming the man who’s proud of the face in the mirror… not the one who’s avoiding his own reflection.
JUMP TO THE POINT
[00:00:00] – The real cost of not going after what you want
[00:02:35] – Why the “gap” between desire and action destroys integrity
[00:07:12] – How a BBC drama triggered this episode’s theme
[00:11:50] – The 3XC Formula: bridging the gap with Clarity, Courage, and Commitment
[00:17:03] – Why courage isn’t motivation — and why that matters
[00:22:40] – The price of doing nothing (and why it’s higher than you think)
[00:29:15] – Setting your path: milestones, “who not how,” and building momentum
[00:35:28] – The I Am List: reprogramming your mindset for progress
[00:40:50] – The role of accountability and why your wife can’t be your coach
[00:46:30] – Closing challenge: Where’s your gap? And what’s it costing you?

I’ve just returned from a summer holiday in Annecy, France - a holiday that turned into a masterclass in doing nothing whilst doing everything that matters.
It was brilliant. I fully switched off from work.
I slept loads and chilled in the sun.
I spent quality time with my kids, my brothers family, my girlfriend.
I did some lightweight exercise and enjoyed good food, beer and wine.
If you’ve ever felt guilty for switching off or wondered how to be fully present for your kids without checking your phone every five minutes, this one’s for you. Let’s go.
WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT
Too many of us spend our holidays chasing experiences and checking work emails - only to return home more burnt out than when we left. When you neglect true rest, you sacrifice clarity in decisions, quality time with loved ones, and the mental recharge that fuels your business and relationships.
Holidays aren’t luxuries - they’re essential reboots for the man your family needs you to be.

What if everything you’ve been taught about money is keeping you broke – and stuck?
In this episode, I’m joined by Jason Graystone – investor, speaker, and author of the upcoming book Always Free – to talk about mental freedom, leveraged income, and why real wealth has nothing to do with hustle.
Jason built his first business washing cars at 13 and hasn’t traded time for money since. Today, he helps people buy back their lives by aligning income, identity, and impact. This episode isn’t about crypto or hustle hacks – it’s about reclaiming ownership of your time and creating a life that actually excites you.
You’ll also hear Jonnie talk about the High Value Man 8-Week Accelerator, and how to join the upcoming Lodge Weekender in Aviemore.

You think being a one-man army is a strength.
That if you just grind a bit harder, get a bit better, be a bit faster.
You’ll finally catch up. Finally get the respect, results, and rest you deserve.
But it’s bollocks.
That mindset is draining you. It’s slowing you down.
Instead of being a strength it is likely holding you back and creating pressure across your life.
This episode is for you if you’re secretly overwhelmed, burning out, and still telling yourself it’s fine.
It's not.
The Lone Wolf myth is seductive.
You wear every hat. You power through.
And everyone around you thinks you’ve got it handled.
But the truth?
Trying to do it all yourself is Low Value living.
This week, one of the men inside High Value Man shared how results had improved in the last 6 months.
He’s a brilliant project manager—but as the business owner, that role was burning him out.
Six months ago he finally recruited a senior project manager who could take over that role.
Sounds obvious that it would work but so many of us don't do it.
This is what Dan Sullivan calls the trap of “-er” thinking: "If I can just be better, faster, stronger" … all solo.
You think you’re saving time, money or ensuring quality — but you’re actually just draining your power.
The antidote?
Who, not how.
Build the team. Focus where you create the biggest results.
That’s High Value. That’s leadership.
Who Not How
→ Stop asking “How do I fix this?”
→ Start asking “Who can help me move faster?”
What’s The Worst That Could Happen?
→ Most fears dissolve when you stop catastrophising and write it down.
Eisenhower Matrix
→ Use it to categorise what’s Urgent vs Important - and bin the rest.
The Superpower Matrix (Clarity Tool inside 3XC)
→ When you know yourself, delegation becomes obvious and action becomes automatic.
Set Your Path – 3XC Clarity Principle
→ When you Set Your Path, you stop reacting and start leading.
