In this powerful episode, Greg Denning and Jonathan Rios dive deep into why every man needs a tribe—a brotherhood of like-minded men who challenge, support, and elevate him.

Men often face the pressure of going it alone, but Jonathan and Greg argue that true strength and growth are found in unity and shared purpose. They discuss the essential role that a brotherhood plays in holding men accountable to their values and standards, helping them rise above mediocrity and pursue lives of purpose and integrity.

Drawing from their own experiences, they explore how men can maintain high standards while offering grace, how to live authentically, and the importance of meaningful, supportive relationships. The conversation highlights the need for men to be surrounded by others who will push them to be better, whether it's in business, marriage, or personal growth. It's not just about self-improvement—it's about serving others, and how a strong brotherhood creates a ripple effect of positive change.

Jonathan shares practical insights on what it means to live with purpose, hold yourself to unwavering standards, and surround yourself with men who elevate you. This episode is a call to action for men who are ready to stop walking their journey alone—get inspired to build a tribe that helps you thrive in every area of life.
