Welcome to the first-ever episode of The Restorative Man Podcast! Today, Chris Bruno and Jesse French share an exciting announcement: after years of building community and resources through The Forge Podcast, they're re-centering around the vision of “The Restorative Man.” In this conversation, Chris and Jesse dive into what this shift means and the heart behind the new name. They reflect on how the “forge” concept captured the process of growth, while “The Restorative Man” captures the goal—a lifelong journey to become men who actively bring restoration to themselves and the world around them. Join us as we explore what it means to become restorative men and how that mission shapes everything Restoration Project is about.
