A viral clip of a young kid says it best: “Parents wanna be cool... that’s why this generation is cooked.” In this episode, Donte and Cali unpack the decline of discipline in today’s culture. We talk about how physical discipline is now outlawed in many places, and how the absence of structure is affecting our kids.

Cali also shares the heart behind his book The Disciplined Life Blueprint and how he and Donte are kicking off a 40 Day Challenge to build spiritual, mental, and physical consistency. If you're tired of chaos and ready to build real habits—this one's for you.
