Jeff opens up about the early challenges of keeping the Gentleman's Factory afloat and staying personally grounded while building something bigger than himself.We talk about the power of community in combatting isolation and bias, and Jeff shares how the Gentleman's Factory has become a hub where men gather to network, get inspired, watch games, and even grab a haircut.Most importantly, Jeff discusses the legacy he hopes to leave behind--and his bold mission to expand this model of intentional brotherhood across the country and around the world.
