About this episode
When we talk about the issues facing our cities—violence, inequality, broken trust—we often miss the root cause: the breakdown of the family.Adam B. Coleman, founder of Wrong Speak Publishing, co-founder of the THIRST Network, author, and public speaker, joins Jim Iuorio and Bob Iaccino on Futures Edge to unpack how fatherlessness, fractured homes, and shifting cultural values are quietly unraveling society.They explore the generational impact of family instability, the emotional and economic toll of separation, and the hidden ways trauma shapes relationships. From confidence in young women to the role of faith in restoring stability, this conversation challenges the narratives that normalize dysfunction—and offers a path to healing through personal, spiritual, and societal accountability.More than a diagnosis, it’s a call to rebuild what truly matters: healthy families, strong foundations, and love that lasts.CHAPTERS: Introduction and Sponsor Acknowledgment - 00:00Guest Introduction: Adam Coleman - 01:30Discussion on Urban Economics and Family Structure - 03:00Adam Coleman's Personal Story - 05:00The Impact of Family Separation - 08:00Government's Role in Family Dynamics - 12:00Cultural Issues and Fatherlessness - 15:00The Importance of Two-Parent Homes - 20:00Social Media and Relationship Dynamics - 25:00Religion and Family Stability - 30:00Choosing Partners and Relationship Advice - 35:00Book Promotion and Audience Engagement - 40:00Closing Remarks and Sponsor Acknowledgment - 45:00
