Show Notes
Modern men are struggling… but most are suffering in silence.
In this episode of The Super Human Life, Coach Frank Rich sits down with Troy DaRonco, relationship coach and cofounder of Groups For Men, to explore the growing epidemic of male isolation, emotional suppression, and broken relationships.
After working with thousands of men over the past 15 years, Troy has seen the same pattern again and again: men were never taught how to communicate emotions, build brotherhood, or lead healthy relationships.
Instead, they were taught to "figure it out alone."
Frank and Troy unpack the deeper roots of this struggle—from fatherlessness and the absence of mentors to the modern distractions that keep men disconnected from themselves and each other.
They also dive into the emotional and relational skills men must develop to build trust, create safety in relationships, and step into stronger leadership in their lives.
The conversation also explores the connection between emotional pain and coping mechanisms like pornography, addiction, and avoidance—and why real transformation starts when a man gets clear on the life he wants to build.
If you're a man who has ever felt isolated, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, this episode will challenge you to step into a stronger version of yourself.
