The Art of Masculinity Johnny Elsasser

This is the fourth and final episode of our 4-part series called, “Step Into the Man You Want to Become” featuring Frank Paul Vignola. In this episode we dive into Your Journey, the fourth pillar to stepping into a man that is authentic and intentional. Johnny and Frank explore the individual journey we all embark on, delving into what it means to actively choose our own paths as men.

Frank’s early life was plagued with battles - bullying, expulsions, overdoses, and then a 4-year string of incarcerations that almost killed him. Overcoming those challenges gifted him with a determination to develop a formula to help men summon their inner superheroes. In 2023, he released the autobiographical how-to guide for men, "Crafting Masculinity." After 10+ years as a coach for men, he has helped hundreds of men overcome their self-limiting beliefs and become men they’re proud of.

Today Johnny welcomes Elliot Schwartz to the podcast for the 400th episode. They go deep into what it means to be masculine in this modern society when censorship, cancel culture, and unintelligent opinions run rampant. To be a man, does that mean you need to be loud? How do you get your voice heard otherwise? Johnny and Elliot voice their opinions on what quiet masculinity looks like. They also chat about what it means to be a leader and about Elliot’s business ventures as an AirBnB owner.

Elliot Schwartz is a luxury Air Bnb owner who has built an investment group that targets new properties to convert into high-end rentals for retreats, masterminds, and occasional Air Bnb during the off-season. His firm, Vacation Equity Group, is continually expanding its portfolio and always looking to interview potential new investors in the upcoming projects they are working on.
