The Nomad CEO Podcast

Behind every successful man is a rock-bottom story. Every Friday, The Nomad CEO Podcast dives into the transformational journeys of male founders, entrepreneurs, and leaders who walked away from comfort, faced chaos, and rebuilt themselves into something stronger. And in case you wondered, yes, this is a male-only space because we need more of that. Hosted by Roman L. Binder, this is not a podcast about tactics—it’s about the turning point. The moment when everything collapsed. When reality forced a new identity. And when the real journey began. These are conversations with men who chose discipline over despair, meaning over mediocrity, and mission over excuses. It’s a raw look behind the polished surface—into the fire that forged them. If you’re building something and battling through it, this podcast will remind you: You’re not alone. You’re on the same path every great man walks. The Nomad CEO is where founders tell the truth—before the success story.

Most podcasts about masculinity are just noise—this one goes deeper.
British actor and podcast host James Sutton joins me for a real, vulnerable conversation. We disagreed on politics, purpose, and what being a man even means—but what we shared was far more powerful.
James reveals how his life slowly fell apart behind closed doors: alcohol, burnout, and the quiet pain of pretending everything was fine. Then he chose to start again—not with a dramatic moment, but by lifting weights in a spare room. That’s where his comeback began.
 
We unpack the loneliness epidemic, emotional suppression in men, and the healing power of speaking out.
This episode is raw, real, and worth your time.
