The Everyday Responder

Episode 31: MANNY MUSTACHE - Chase Discomfort, Build Leaders

Coach Justin McCartney

The more challenge in your life, the better you become.

What does it take to lead at the highest level while juggling active duty, family, training, and personal growth? My good friend Manny breaks down his no-BS approach to leadership that's built on one core principle: chase discomfort.

What You'll Learn:

How to set the standard and inspire your team, family, and the people who depend on you. Manny proves you can make it happen regardless of personal commitments, professional obligations, and everyday chaos.

His 4 Pillars of Authentic Leadership:

  • Leading by example in everything you do 
  • To be selfless, you have to be selfish
  • Build relationships based on trust and care
  • Challenge the road in front of you 

The Bottom Line: Manny doesn't just talk about leadership - he lives it daily. 

Perfect podcast for military leaders, first responders, and high-performers who refuses to lead from their comfort zone.

Connect with Manny and learn more about his journey, leadership philosophy, and training approach.
