Built for the Storm drops Wednesday morning.
I’ve been sitting with this all weekend, trying to figure out the best way to share it, and honestly…I’m just excited. This guide isn’t perfect. It’s not some polished “10-step blueprint.” It’s not meant to live on someone’s desktop collecting dust. It’s meant to wake a man up. To give him a place to start when everything feels heavy and unclear. It’s simple on purpose. It’s a jump start. A shove in the right direction. A reminder that you don’t need to have everything figured out before you take the first step. The real work happens here in this community, with the conversations we’re having and the accountability we’re building. And I want the men in this room to be the first ones to get it. Wednesday morning, it’s yours. You’ll find it inside the Classroom section here on Skool. A couple things I want to be clear about: • Please don’t share the PDF publicly.I made this for us, for the men who are actually doing the work. I’m trusting that it stays here. • If you know a guy who needs this, a coworker, a friend, your brother, invite him into the community. He’ll get the guide for free just by being here. No pressure. Just an honest nudge. “Hey man, this group has helped me. Thought of you.” You never know what that simple message might do for someone. I’m proud of this guide. I’m proud of what we’ve been building. And I’m proud of you guys for showing up the way you do. Wednesday we take another step forward. Stay anchored.

Definitely can’t wait for this. Been feeling out of whack for a while now and need some guidance. Thank you Jeff!
🔥 Built for the Storm — A Guide for the Men in This Community
I’ve been working on something that feels different. Not content. Not motivation. Something real. Something I wish I had years ago when life felt heavy and I didn’t know where to start rebuilding myself. It’s called Built for the Storm, and it’s a framework for men who want more out of life. More clarity, more discipline, more purpose, more resilience. It’s built from the same lessons, failures, and hard moments that forced me to level up and take ownership of who I was becoming. Everything in this guide is something I’ve lived, not something I Googled. And I want to give it to you for free, but only inside this community. This is where the real work is happening. This is where men show up honestly, share what’s actually going on, and hold each other accountable. This guide belongs with guys who are committed to changing their lives, not with people scrolling for motivation. Here’s the truth. There are men out there who need this community. Men who are struggling quietly. Men who carry the weight alone because they don’t feel like they have a place to talk about it. You might even know one of them. A friend, a coworker, a brother. Someone you’ve thought about inviting but didn’t want to push. Invite him. Not with pressure. Just an honest, “Hey man, this group helped me. Thought of you.” You never know how far that simple message might reach. Built for the Storm is coming soon, and you’ll be the first to get it. I’m proud of this. I’m proud of what we’re building. And I’m proud of the men in this room who show up, do the work, and refuse to coast through life. Let’s keep going. Together.

Can’t wait for this 😁
Your Younger Self is Watching
If 16-year-old you could see your life right now…what would he think? Not the filtered version.The real one. Would he be proud of the way you show up? The man you’ve become? The battles you survived? And what would he call you out on? The excuses? The fear? The comfort zone you stayed in too long? This community is built for the honest answers, not the polished ones. Answer in two parts: 1. Proud of 2. Needs work 3. No deep explanation required. Just truth. I’ll go first in the comments. Your turn, men.

Proud of: Seeing how far we’ve come despite wearing blinders on this thing we call life. 16 year old didn’t believe we would find love, didn’t think I would ever move out of my parents house, wouldn’t amount to anything. 22 years later, I’m married with an amazing woman. I’m a father of 2 amazing kids who are 4 and 1. Only having a high school diploma, I grind in my career within manufacturing to achieve 2 leadership roles. Needs work: My self confidence. My limited mindset and beliefs of what life can be. Not chasing after my dreams being a stand up comic, an improv actor. I need work of self love, being able to look myself in the mirror and love the man looking back at me. I over think every single move before even thinking about doing it, if I get that far. Always doubting myself from making moves. 16 year old me would be disappointed we didn’t do the things he wanted for us to do.

My name is Ian, I’m a 37 year old father of 2 kids and a husband. I’m from Southern California, I work in quality assurance in the medical device manufacturing industry. I’m here because I’ve been battling depression since I was 14 years old. I feel lost, hopeless as a father, husband and a man. I want to improve my mental health and confidence.
