  • REAL Masculinity

    By the grace of God I found JM and his team on Facebook in 2024 and it changed the direction of my marriage. Very basic concepts that I never heard growing up in the church. I recommend this podcast to every guy I know. Not only has my marriage continued to transformed but it’s affected my career and personal growth positively as well.

  • There is always gold in these podcasts

    I have a family captain since 2021. The amount of growth I’ve had going through the program and now going through this podcast has been phenomenal! Even when you think you have reached the peak you find that there is something higher than where you are at in that moment. Keep climbing brothers!
