Title: Redefining Masculinity: Mark Grayson on Vulnerability and 'Getting Naked'
In this episode of the Mankind Podcast, Boysen chats with Mark Grayson about his book "Getting Naked: A Field Guide for Men," exploring the evolving landscape of masculinity and vulnerability.
Mark Grayson, once a corporate leader, found his true calling in redefining manhood. Through his ventures, he has always sought meaningful impact, but his journey into understanding masculinity led him to author a transformative book. A pivotal moment came at a workshop where Mark decided to pose nude, challenging traditional views and embracing vulnerability—an experience that led to personal liberation.
Mark's exploration is enriched by insights from influencers like Mark Green and Niobe Way, who have shaped his understanding of "man box culture." These relationships highlight the importance of embracing diversity in redefining masculinity.
The Seven-Part Journey
Mark's book presents a seven-step journey for men to embrace all facets of their identity, from vulnerability to emotional expression and redefining success. This framework guides men toward a balanced and authentic self.
The conversation also explores developing empathy and understanding in relationships, crucial for deepening connections and inspiring cultural change in gender dynamics.
Mark is involved in projects that foster spiritual growth and civic engagement, reflecting his holistic approach. His work invites others on a courageous journey toward authentic self-discovery.
In "Getting Naked," Mark Grayson challenges societal norms and offers a framework for understanding masculinity, encouraging personal and cultural transformation.

Frank Shamrock is a multiple-time world champion mixed martial artist with a 16-year career that saw him claim titles in the UFC, Strikeforce, Pancrase, and the WEC, all this after overcoming a tumultuous childhood of abuse and incarceration.
Frank graciously handed over the baton to the next generation of fighters and transitioned into promoting Strikeforce, which the UFC bought for 34m. This freed Frank to transition into his proudest role as a super-dad to his daughter Nicolette and the running of his organization, The Shamrock Way.
He returns to the ManKind Podcast with Brandon Clift to discuss the critical role that "Girl-Dads" play in the development and lives of their daughters and how we can apply the Plus, Minus, and Equal System to achieve excellence in all areas of life.

Join us for an enlightening conversation with Jim Katona, a man whose diverse life experiences have shaped his profound insights into positive influence and realistic beliefs. From being a roofer, clown, preacher, and artist, Jim has dedicated decades to serving others in challenging circumstances. We discuss his journey through change, grief, loss, marriage, and the value of persistence, highlighting how Jim defied expectations to become an honorary co-chairman of the Mankind Project and an ambassador for the spirit of harmonious cooperation.
Listen in as we explore the origins and impact of the phrase "the spirit of harmonious cooperation," a concept Jim introduced during a board meeting in 2014. Influenced by his background as a Christian clown minister, Jim has used the power of words to foster understanding and collaboration within the Mankind Project and beyond. See the mural - https://phillyunknownproject.org/
Hear about a pivotal moment when I was named honorary co-chairman by Don Jones after a tense situation during an NWTA weekend in 1999. We touch on the importance of adaptability and the transformative power of listening in relationships, sharing lessons learned from past mistakes and how gratitude, emotional regulation, and open communication contribute to a long-lasting, harmonious marriage. This conversation is filled with insights on personal responsibility and the value of expressing appreciation in daily interactions.
