Rob’s Bio: Rob Fenstermaker
While trying to navigate the “American Dream,” Rob had given over the power of his life to a corporate identity of a 9-5 existence. That identity extracted its pound of the flesh daily. He believed control over his life was non-existent, and he was tired, burned out, and searching for meaning.
A corporate Downsizing was the final straw, and he knew it was time for a radical change. He allowed someone whom he trusted to speak into his life. He was coached on the possibility of what it meant to live his life to its fullest, and a bridge was built.
Rob saw that his most significant pain could now be his crown. He created a new belief system that empowered him to regain power over his life. Rob now encourages men to break down their castle walls and build a bridge leading to their Kingdom as they discover a life of Empowerment.
About your host: I’m Drew Deraney, the proud father of three children. For most of my life I’ve been concerned with what people thought of me and how I was supposed to act. I learned not to be my authentic self and instead became a people pleaser, a man wearing a mask.
In a 9-month span a few years ago, I endured four faith-shaking life events that caused me to question my existence.
I became determined to find a better way to live. Through intense self-reflection and awareness, I realized that in order to be happy, I must adhere to my standards of honesty, integrity and truth and needed to break free from the belief system that was anchored in me for close to 50 years.
I found my purpose and my mission in life. I’ve now become the man I know I am meant to be. My mission is empowering men ready to make a change to do the same.
My men’s group and one-on-one Coaching provide a safe space for men to share, without judgement, and transform. My male clients learn to release their inner greatness and stop self-sabotage, the #1 roadblock keeping them from reaching their goals.
