Dominick Quartuccio

In 2014, Dominick Quartuccio felt a deep calling to explore the realms of masculinity, and men’s personal development. If masculinity is a recipe designed by each man, what ingredients set apart a good man from a great man? What does it mean to be a man in our ever-evolving modern world? To start answering these questions, Quartuccio experimented on himself. He attended men’s retreats like the ManKind Project, read dozens of books on masculinity and femininity, started his own men’s group (which he’s executed weekly for 3 years), and began running men’s retreats. He created The Great Man Mastermind, a select community of high-performing men living their highest potential, and formed The Great Man Within, an online community and movement of hundreds of men around the world all with one common goal: to uncover and live the best version of themselves.

In an age of people telling others what to think, Quartuccio helps men re-learn how to think about their masculinity — and how they want to show up in the world. Without providing a prescription for what masculinity “should” be, Quartuccio creates space for men to do their own inner work, placing lights along the path to guide their questions, challenge their assumptions, and ultimately help them uncover the man they have been trying to become. If you want someone to do the work for you, Quartuccio’s approach is not for you. If you’re ready to hold up the mirror, and put in the time and energy, hop on board.

As an outspoken advocate of men, Quartuccio inspires men (and their women) to do inner work. He co-hosts The Great Man Within podcast, covering the high-performing man’s top subjects: such as purpose, sex, and legacy. He is frequently seen in the media, dissecting topics in men’s sexual wellbeing, relationships, and men’s mental health. You’ve heard Quartuccio on NPR, read about him in the New York Times, and watched him on TEDx.
