Today I'm turning to Garrett for answers as a coach who has helped thousands of men to become an upgraded version of themselves. Raw and unfiltered, Garrett has a very intense view of what masculinity means and how men should behave, but behind the brutish delivery is a focus on truth being paramount and taking charge of your personal sovereignty.
