This is the second episode of our 4-part series, “Step Into The Man You Want to Become” featuring Frank Paul Vignola. In this episode, we delve deep into the concept of courage, the second foundational pillar on the journey to becoming an authentic and intentional man. Join Johnny and Frank as they tackle the common misconception surrounding courage, emphasizing that it's not about the absence of fear, but rather, facing it head-on. Frank’s early life was plagued with battles - bullying, expulsions, overdoses, and then a 4-year string of incarcerations that almost killed him. Overcoming those challenges gifted him with a determination to develop a formula to help men summon their inner superheroes. In 2023, he released the autobiographical how-to guide for men, "Crafting Masculinity." After 10+ years as a coach for men, he has helped hundreds of men overcome their self-limiting beliefs and become a man they’re proud of.
