My name is Brendan Schmidt.
In 2020, I launched Masculine Revival as a platform to speak directly into the hearts of modern men. Since then, it has grown into a full-time mission:
The Masculine Revival Brotherhood, our online men’s group program, now supports over 55+ men weekly.
My 1:1 men’s mentorship and couples coaching help men and couples improve their lives, marriages and households.
The Masculine Revival Podcast shares hard-earned wisdom on masculinity, marriage, faith, and life.
My mission is simple:
To help men reclaim their God-given strength, rise into mature manhood, and lead lives marked by integrity, order, and purpose.
My work is for the men who want to learn to lead and grow in their leadership capacity, and the women who are walking beside them.
If you're ready to stop drifting and start building—I'm here to help.
I'm an Orthodox Christian, husband, father of two, and founder of Masculine Revival.
I grew up without a father and with no blueprint for how to become a man. That absence shaped me. Like many men today, I struggled to find direction, purpose, and to overcome the internal hangups and confusion that held me back in life.
Everything began to change in 2018 when I joined a men’s group. For the first time in my life, I experienced real masculine mentorship, brotherhood, and accountability. I was challenged, sharpened, and called to more. That experience set my life on a new trajectory—and ignited a passion to help other men find what I had found.
