Canyon Pathways Podcast
The Canyon Pathways podcast invites men into the journey of sonship, and invests in them through creative content, honest conversation, and inspiring stories of men around the world so that the listener leaves encouraged and equipped to live like a son and lead like a father.
Our goal with the podcast is twofold: 1) to invest more deeply into our existing community and provide ongoing content and community spaces for them, and 2) to expand the community by inviting more men around the world to this global campfire.
So, welcome to the table of sonship—we’re glad you’re here!

Redefining Wealth & Finding Your Route w/ guest Patrick Rooney
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of the Canyon Pathways podcast, host Sherman Bradley is joined by Patrick Rooney—a husband, father, finance professional, and former Division 1 athlete now living in London. Together, they reflect on the Field Note Wealth, exploring how midlife men can move beyond financial accumulation to embrace relational access and spiritual well-being as the truest forms of wealth.
Through personal stories and grounded wisdom, Patrick shares how receiving the word Route on a Canyon retreat reshaped his view of leadership, family, and decision-making. From the stress of finance to the peace of sonship, this conversation is an invitation to rest, realign, and receive.
Takeaways:
- Wealth is not accumulation—it's access to the Father and others.
- Rest is required to receive. Sons don't earn, they inherit.
- Leadership in the home begins with presence, not pressure.
- Understanding our own wiring helps us lead our children and love our spouses better.
- God’s will is not always a single rigid path—it may be a route, with space to walk in freedom.
