The Modern
Renaissance
Man Story
Modern Renaissance Man is..
About the man who recognizes that he’s on a journey to discover his deepest truth. The resourceful man who’s willing to find his edge and meet his challenges with a fire in his soul and seeks to manifest harmony and sovereignty in life.
We exist to help tomorrow’s leaders create themselves TODAY.
We inspire men to confidently show their families, their communities, and the world exactly who the f*#k they are.
Through brotherhood, we transform lone wolves into pack heads. Through vulnerability, we guide men to release limiting beliefs and step into their power.
Yeah, we encourage style and self-expression, but we’re more than just men with dope tats and swaggy hats. We empower men show up as better entrepreneurs, creators, and impact-driven leaders by disconnecting from doubt and reconnecting them with themselves– shifting the paradigm of masculine leadership.
This ain’t your granddaddy’s boy’s club. This is training.
This is where Modern Renaissance Men are seen, heard and put to the fire to forge the life they want to live and leave nothing on the table.
Modern Renaissance Man empowers men
to find their edge so they can live the life they want to live. Through brotherhood, resources and transformative experiences, we inspire men to fully express their truth and own their power and leave nothing on the table.
We are the movement shifting society’s view on leadership and masculinity.

Success Stories
“Through my relationship with MRM, I’ve been able to cultivate the skills, temperament, and capabilities of a true man. The brothers have shown me the power of acting from integrity, challenging myself to stay in honor by holding true to my words, actions, and deeds; their example continuously proves to me the power of a man of integrity, whose word is amplified by the full force of his masculine presence, energy, and commitment. As I continue to grow, I feel a constantly deepening bond with these men, who continue to hold me in my highest and best version of myself, allow me to fully flourish as the man I know I am, and, thankfully, am constantly reminded of by their reflection.”
Jack Siberine

“MRM has changed my life for the better…previously I was a lone wolf, totally isolated…after meeting MRM, these men held tremendous space for me to help uncover the doubts and traumas that were hidden in the shadows…as a result, I let go of so much fear, resentment and anger…I never felt more aligned with myself and my professional life…these brothers helped me get out of my own way and for that, I am eternally grateful…I am a Modern Renaissance Man for life.”

Our Story
Modern Renaissance Man began with the combined vision of our Co-Founders,
Jose Alejandro and Voy Wiacek.
During their time working together in Corporate America, Jose Alejandro started a men’s group veiled as a book club and Voy was one of the first to show up to its initial meetings.
Fortunately, this encounter revealed that the two had common visions.
Jose wanted to provide men with supportive community experiences and transformational resources by bridging the worlds of men’s lifestyle (culture) and well-being.
Voy wanted to create a brand that helped men elevate and integrate the mind, body, and soul through style and fitness.
The rest was history; MRM was born!

However, it wasn’t easy.
They initially experienced many roadblocks in manifesting this vision, as it was hard communicating the importance of training, brotherhood and embodied leadership to men.
Constantly met by their edge and sometimes deterred by self-doubt, their commitment was tested, but remained unshakable.
Knowing the impact it had on their own lives, there was no turning back on giving this gift to other men.
By leaning into the early events and experiences, the transformation men felt continued to validate this vision and fueled its growth.
Coinciding with their individual journey, they began expressing themselves authentically, leading more confidently, and identifying with a sense of community.
MRM was successfully bridging the gap between men’s lifestyle and men’s work, meeting men where they are and offering them the tools and resources to lead and live freely.
The community continued to grow and the co-founders found themselves surrounded by a brotherhood of modern men committed to service and a mutual mission.
MRM had taken on a consciousness of its own.
There was no turning back.
MRM wasn’t just a men’s brand, it wasn’t just a men’s group; it was a lifestyle– a way of being.
