Guest: Sean Corcoran, CEO of Men for Life

The Women’s Lib Movement erased men’s voices from the discussion of parenthood, but thanks to organizations like Men For Life, men are finding their voice and taking seats at the table.

Sean Corcoran was on a successful trajectory when his college girlfriend became pregnant. Her choice to abort took away his choice to parent his child. That decision took Sean on an eight-year path of self-destruction, ending as he lay on a hotel room floor, calling out to God. A rehab center was where Sean learned he had the right to grieve for his child. Healing finally began and he finished college, heading to LSU law school. On retreat several years later, Sean felt safe enough to disclose his secret shame. Men don’t share, but once they realize they’re not alone, walls crumble. 

That experience helped Sean understand how important it is to give men a platform where they can tell their stories. They have a voice and a right to speak. Men for Life gives them that platform and as CEO, Sean strives to give men their rightful place at the table. Through podcasts, a mentoring course on fatherhood, an upcoming book, and speaking engagements, Sean is finally able to give his child a voice, too. 

Biography: Raised Catholic, Sean went to Catholic school from first through eighth grade. His faith was important to him, even though drugs destroyed his life. After failing out of several colleges, a desperate plea to God turned him around. Now married to holistic dentist, Dr. Michelle Corcoran, and the father of five children (three of whom are adopted), Sean decided to retire from his successful family law practice in 2022 to spend more time with his family. Approached by Men for Life to lead their nonprofit, Sean rejected them for 18 months until God’s insistence brought Sean to that role in August 2024.
