As a Personal Coach, Dr. Mann seeks to support, guide and prepare boys ages 3 - 24 to navigate the

challenges of manhood with tools of resilience, responsibility and respect as the platform to uncover

the next steps of their journey.  The journey from boys to men often realizes  our hopes and dream,

owning the experiences and choices that have shaped us and guided our path.  This ownership is

about being the one who makes decisions, takes the calculated risks and reaps the rewards of our

efforts as we utilize our gifts, talents and abilities for a brighter future.  Confusion and lack of tools

and resilence may leave boys angry, frustrated, and obsessed with video games and lacking in
