We started as friends.
FYI4Men grew out of a group of lifelong friends. Different lives. Different opinions. The same questions about work, health, relationships, and what comes next.
No perfect lives. No easy answers. Just honest stories, useful ideas, and things worth trying.

My name is Angel, and friends call me AK or just A for short. I’ve been divorced for many years but remained and will always continue to be a family man. I am a happy provider in any way I can for those I love. Proud father of 2 grown men. Any wisdom I have today comes from the countless mistakes I made yesterday – been there, done that. I strive to give positive energy in everything I do, giving it my best every day. How? Biggie said it best… “Stay far from timid, only make moves when your hearts in it, and live the phrase, skies the limit.”

I’m a 50-year-old Latin guy from Jamaica, Queens, who’s seen it all—divorce, identity struggles, and starting over. Through FYI4Men, I share what I’ve learned about resilience, mental health, and finding your footing again. It’s all about helping men rediscover their strength, one real talk at a time.

Wassup. 50 years old , married for a quarter of century, have 2 young men in college and I love beer. God, family, friends, fasting, crypto, martial arts, sex and beer. Love my wife, my boys and my family. Sort of a mama’s boy, but if you had a Dominican mother, you would understand why. Keep it simple, live in the now and watch your back.

As a loving husband and father who is always working on self improvement each day to be the version of myself that I can be for my family and loved ones is my top priority in life. I value qualities like growth and integrity. Aim to embody them in all aspects of my life. In my career within the information technology sector I have established a reputation as a successful sales leader who excels at driving progress and achieving important goals. Focusing on empowering teams and surpassing goals is my priority as I blend my belief in family values with a dedication to nurturing success in all pursuits.

My name is Ruben, and I’m often described as a self-aware and empathetic person. I’m a licensed insurance agent with 25 years of experience in the financial services industry. I grew up in New York City but moved to Florida 20 years ago after 9/11. At the first opportunity, I decided to leave the city and start fresh with my young family, prioritizing their safety and well-being. Family means everything to me—I’m a husband and father to three incredible kids. In my free time, I enjoy watching movies from all genres, listening to hip-hop music, following sports, and collecting sports memorabilia and trading cards. I’ve recently started learning about cryptocurrency and enjoy sports betting as a hobby. I’m always looking for ways to grow, stay inspired, and remain connected to the things that matter most in life.

A recent life shift has sparked a journey of self-discovery. As a separated father of two, I’m balancing parenthood with personal growth. I’m passionate about mental health and am diving deep into activities that truly ignite my spirit. By day, I’m a banker, leveraging my analytical skills to crunch numbers and find innovative solutions. Outside of work, you’ll find me pondering the intricacies of chess, testing my luck at poker and craps, or delving into the world of self-improvement and life hacks. As a long-time vegan, I’m committed to a plant-based lifestyle. Though I’m not the most active person, I’m eager to embrace a healthier lifestyle and work towards my summerBODY(TM) goals. Join me as I share my experiences, insights, and lessons learned on this exciting journey
