David Dowlen Relationship and Personal Development Coach

My name is Brent and I am an entrepreneur mostly known for being a Men’s Relationship & Personal Development Coach, the Host of The Fallible Man Podcast, a Speaker, Personal Trainer and an Event Coordinator.

No matter what I have done in the many industries I have worked for over my lifetime I always ended up becoming a trainer for the company. It is a theme that repeats itself wherever I go. So I decided to embrace it and focus on helping people level up where they feel they need a hand.

So I started a Book (which I still have not finished), which launched a Podcast and became a company, a conference and a life. Now I focus on helping people live one choice better every single day. That is how you grow, 1 choice daily becomes powerful Growth that ANYONE can accomplish!

I have been married for 22 years and have 2 young daughters who are at the root of all I do and one of the great joys of my life. Daddy is probably the favorite of all the things I have been called in my life. Family is everything to me.

About what we do….

The Fallible Man LLC

I started The Fallible Man because my wife and I have seen the need to affect men in a positive way. To encourage them and support them in their own personal journey's to become the men they can be.

Let me be clear, I don’t think men are broken.

I think men are not encouraged or supported in pursuing the man they were born to be. Which is totally unacceptable, because the world needs the men they are meant to become.

Some people joke about men stop developing after potty training, the truth is men are ENCOURAGED and even pressured to STOP developing and growing once they hit around 20.

“Get a job, have a family and then Protect and provide for them, that is your purpose!”

That is BULLSH*T

The world was built by strong men and while not perfect, it needs strong men who embrace their purpose and passion to keep it rolling in a positive direction.

I want to encourage, inspire, empower, support and motivate men to take charge of their life by choosing to improve themselves for themselves. The world will improve as men embrace their purpose, that is how we change the world.

We offer Personal Development Coaching and Relationship Coaching (with a focus on developing quality Relationships that can be applied to any relationship) We also have a members site where you can come and surround yourself with like minded people, join an accountability group to support you and many other things.

I am an “indie” podcaster, youtuber and creator. I do all my own work from start to finish on all my platforms. I create and sell my own merchandise as well as doing some design and editing on the side for other companies and people.

I am also a speaker; I have spoken to Small groups, Large audiences and virtual audiences on a number of topics. I obviously speak on they things we cover at the Fallible Man, but I have also spoken on many other topics as well.

The world needs Strongmen who choose to be good men to live the lives they were born to live.
