Curriculum of a Modern Man
What does it mean to be a strong, centered, and purposeful man today?
Join us on an exclusive six-month journey for a curated circle of eight men seeking growth, self-discovery, and more meaningful life. Through a holistic approach addressing body, mind, and spirit, you’ll uncover who you truly are, explore the unique qualities you bring to the world, and obtain new toolkit to build stronger foundations for the road ahead.
The man behind the mission
For over 20 years, I was riding a wave of success in marketing executive roles around the globe. Always sent, as a midwife, to transform brands and teams. Yet my own search for deeper meaning led me on an adventurous journey into shamanic Red Path of the Heart.
A Heart Warrior carries two inseparable responsibilities. First is to master yourself in building clarity, courage and resilience. Second, using your unique talent to create impact for those around you.
This path, which profoundly transformed my own life, is the same one I now offer to other men as well as facilitating change in corporate leadership under my personal brand jirirakosnik.com
It combines the best of what has worked for me and for hundreds of men who have attended our retreats focused on the archetypes of Lover, Warrior, Wise Man, and King. We translate powerful practices of self-discovery and self-mastery into simple, practical, and highly effective tools that help men live better, more meaningful lives.
FewGoodMen is here to provide a roadmap, tools and community I wished I had when I was going through my journey. Bon voyage, Jiri

It feels good to belong.
One of the most appreciated and sought after aspects of FewGoodMen is the company of others looking for growth and committed to the same journey.
It is surprising how quickly a deep sense of friendship is created once we allow our masks to drop.
