Today on the show, I had my dear friend Johnny Elsasser on to talk about his journey through the elite special operations military system. He was forced to rediscover his identity after leaving the military. This included dropping his ego from the alpha male environment in which he was used to succeeding, doing the internal work and learning the true meaning of masculinity. We spoke at length on his transformation and how he is using his lessons to help other men.

Johnny Elsasser is a former Special Operations U.S. Army Ranger with four combat tours between Iraq and Afghanistan and another 5 years protecting the U.S. Ambassador to Iraq in Baghdad. Johnny has seen the field of masculinity through extreme alpha perspectives and knows the trials and tribulations the toughest men deal with day to day. Johnny's mission is to help men find strength in developing masculinity to be consistent with who they are and not what society expects them to be. Johnny has shifted his fight to advocating and supporting alpha males in finding their own masculinity and purpose as a man in society today. He is the host of the top rated podcast, The Art of Masculinity where he provides insights from himself and others on how to have men live their best lives through authenticity, vulnerability and credibility.
