    Masculinity Without a Blueprint: Where Do You Start?
    By Joseph Perkins | Multi-Award-Winning International Men’s Empowerment Speaker | Host of Grown Man University

    Most men weren’t handed a blueprint for masculinity. No fatherly guidance, no clear vision, no code to live by. And without one? Life feels like trial and error—lost, frustrated, and chasing culture instead of purpose.

    In this powerful episode of Grown Man University, Joseph Perkins breaks down exactly how to build your own masculine blueprint from scratch.

    Inside, you’ll learn:
    ✅ Why vision is essential to manhood (Proverbs 29:18)
    ✅ Lessons from men like David Goggins, Aaron Hernandez, and Giannis Antetokounmpo
    ✅ What a real masculine blueprint looks like—values, habits, standards, and brotherhood
    ✅ 5 beginner steps to start today: from writing your code to finding a mentor
    ✅ Why you are not too broken, too late, or too far gone to build

    Because the truth is simple: you don’t need a perfect start—you just need a blueprint.

    👑 Build your structure. Define your manhood. Live with vision.

    🔥 Listen now to Grown Man University and begin building the life you were meant to live.
