The Grounded Man Podcast by Deru is for hardworking men building businesses, carrying responsibility, and providing for their families — who feel they should be freer.


The world has changed, and leading through hard work and long hours now limits a man’s influence.

  • Carrying the weight without losing yourself

    In this episode of the Grounded Man Podcast, host John Douglas explores the relationship between responsibility and pressure for hardworking men building businesses and providing for their families.

    John explains that pressure doesn’t come from responsibility itself, but from how we carry it.

    He breaks responsibility into three categories: what you control (thoughts, actions, mindset), what you influence but don’t control (family, team, business), and what’s entirely outside your control (others’ reactions, outcomes).

    By focusing your energy on what you can control and trusting yourself and the process, you can carry responsibility more effectively and experience greater freedom.

  • Leading By Example Starts With Your State
    2026/04/13
    Show Notes


    In this episode, John Douglas talks about what leadership really means today.

    He explains how leadership is shifting away from just hard work and control, and toward mindset, energy, and self-mastery. Your internal state doesn’t just affect you. It shapes your business, your team, and your family.

    John encourages letting go of outdated habits, taking personal responsibility, and showing up in a way that naturally inspires others.

    Leadership isn’t just about what you do. It starts with how you show up.

    When you lead with the right energy and direction, people step up, ownership grows, and results improve without constant pressure.

    If you want to lead with purpose, clarity, and calm, this episode is for you.

  • Stop Working to Earn Freedom — Lead With Freedom
    2026/04/06

    Show Notes


    In this episode, John Douglas talks about why so many hardworking men still feel stuck even when they are doing everything right.

    He breaks down the idea that freedom is not something you earn later, but something you learn to live now.

    Instead of constantly reacting to pressure, expectations, and responsibilities, this episode focuses on leading from within. It is about understanding your identity beyond titles, letting go of fear-driven patterns, and building a sense of control that does not depend on external success.

    If you have ever felt like you are working hard but still not free, this episode will shift how you see it.
