The Road to Man Enough: A Movement to Undefine Masculinity

Every road has its potholes, its twists and turns, and every journey has its feelings of elation and its moments of hopelessness. The road to building Man Enough has been this type of dynamic journey, a movement founded on the belief that by undefining traditional roles and traits of masculinity, men will be able to realize their potential as humans and their capacity for connection.

The Man Enough journey has only just begun. There’s so much work to do on masculinity that it seems as if we’re far from an end, and that’s ok. The process of doing the work, learning and building our community is the purpose of doing this at all. As a movement, we’ve had accidents along the way, speed bumps that make you feel as though we’re going to bottom out, but there have also moments where the wind is at our back, our foot is pressed firmly on the gas and we feel like our compass is pointed in the right direction. No journey is perfect; it’s all a balance of success and lessons learned.

This is the story of Man Enough up until now, an easy way to get up to speed on some of the content and conversations that we have created to date. You’ll learn how this long-overdue unpacking of masculinity began with our leader – actor, filmmaker and entrepreneur Justin Baldoni. You’ll see how we’ve grown as a family with a common goal and get a glimpse into where we plan to go in the near future. Man Enough combines the personal stories and collective experiences of men from many backgrounds as we aim to build bridges from our heads to our hearts, and between one another. There have been countless lessons learned already, many more to come and a resilient unwillingness to concede to the fight for better masculinity for the sake of our potential as humanity. It begins here and we want you along for the ride.

This is the road to Man Enough.
