Kill the Coward: Reclaim Your Life, with Jack Muldoon
Season 1 Episode 67
TRIGGER WARNING : This episode contains a raw and honest account of a suicide attempt. Some of what you will hear may be distressing, so please listen with care.
What happens when life strips you of everything - family, security, even the will to live? Jack Muldoon knows. From losing both parents as a child to battling addiction, homelessness, and a suicide attempt, Jack’s story is raw, brutal, and ultimately inspiring.
In this conversation, Jack opens up about how he rebuilt himself from rock bottom and created The King’s Empire Blueprint—a no-nonsense manual for men who want to reclaim their lives. His philosophy is simple but confronting: kill the coward, take full accountability, and build your own creed to live by.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- How childhood trauma and loss shaped Jack’s self-destructive behaviours.
- Why hitting rock bottom still wasn’t the turning point - and what finally was.
- The power of “killing the coward” and learning to say yes to yourself first.
- Why small, simple, repeatable steps (not grand gestures) create lasting change.
- How Jack uses his Mind’s Temple framework to help men rewrite their lives.
- The importance of male role models and what Jack is teaching his son about being a man.
Jack doesn’t sugar-coat his past. But his honesty and the practical way he’s turned pain into purpose offer a roadmap for any man who feels lost, stuck, or one decision away from ruin.
If you’ve ever wondered how to move from self-destruction to self-mastery, this episode is for you.
