The M3 Bearcast from Male Media Mind

Welcome to the M3 Baercast. My name is Malcolm Travers. Male Media Mind is a grassroots organization dedicated to uplifting and unifying the black bear community through dialogue, insight, creativity, and knowledge. I've been hosting live streams and sharing content on social media for many years now. I've been asked few times to produce a podcast. It's been a pleasure to make them. Podcasts have the capability to host a longer, more in-depth conversation than our videos on youtube. It also allows you to work or the gym, and you don't have to worry about visual elements of the show being missing, which allows you to passively partake in our conversations. It gives me a chance to mold and edit the conversations in ways that make our points clear.

New Year, New Mindset: From Planning Paralysis to Creative Action

Welcome to the M3 BearCast! Malcolm kicks off 2026 exploring his relationship with New Year's resolutions and why sometimes they actually work.

In this episode:

• Breaking through planning paralysis - How overthinking keeps us from starting and why action is the best teacher

• The M3 origin story - How a 2013 New Year's resolution launched this entire creative journey

• Social media satire struggles - Navigating misunderstood humor online and the challenges of posting authentic content

• Evolution of belief - Revisiting ideas from your twenties with fresh perspective and openness

• 2026 creative goals - Using AI tools for deeper self-reflection, maintaining consistent content creation, and diving into personal creative pursuits

Malcolm shares his commitment to regular posting, learning from limitations, and forgiving himself for past hesitation. If you've been sitting on an idea for months (or years!), this episode might be the push you need.
