“Often people that really know what's going on are the ones that say, ‘Who knows?’ Something my dad's not saying is that, he's had he's had 15 kids.”

In this episode of the Sovereign Man Podcast, we dive into a powerful father and son relationship with Cameron and Brunson Smith. Cameron drops some dad-level wisdom, reflecting on his own fatherhood journey and why showing up, dishing out life advice, and sticking to timeless principles is the ultimate dad trifecta. Meanwhile, Brunson takes us behind the scenes of growing up as one of 15 siblings (yes, 15!)—explaining why his dad deserves a medal. Together, they prove that masculinity isn’t just a buzzword—it’s an art form in action.

Guest Bios:

• Cameron Smith: A father of 15 and a man of wisdom, Cameron embodies dedication, resilience, and a passion for teaching life’s lessons through actions and analogies.
• Brunson Smith: The second oldest of 15 siblings, Brunson brings perspective on navigating life as part of a large family and shares insights from his father’s influence and his own journey.

“There are so many dudes out there that need the help of people like myself and other therapists and divorce coaches, and they don’t pick up the phone, they don’t ask for the help because everybody has John Wayne syndrome.”

Divorce isn’t just a legal process; it’s a complete upheaval of your emotional, financial, and mental worlds. The truth is, most people walk into it underprepared, thinking they can “figure it out” as they go. That’s a mistake. Divorce demands strategy, whether it’s navigating the legal complexities, dividing assets, or recalibrating your life after the dust settles. Smart planning—think prenups, financial foresight, and clear boundaries—can save you from unnecessary heartbreak and financial ruin. The core lesson? Treat your divorce like a high-stakes business deal—leave emotion at the door, and always come prepared with a team of experts.

Our guest for this episode is a financial expert who turned his own painful divorce into a mission to help others. After navigating an $85,000 divorce battle, he realized the importance of preparation, prenups, and knowing when to call in reinforcements. His business specializes in the financial nuances of divorce—alimony, child support, asset division, you name it—and he urges men to ditch the “John Wayne syndrome” of doing it alone. The takeaway is clear: whether you’re considering a divorce, going through one, or reflecting on the past, the right support can transform a personal disaster into a manageable challenge.
