When Mark Santiago hit rock bottom, it wasn’t in a moment of failure. It was in the quiet collapse of everything he thought he had to hold together. In this deeply personal episode, Mark opens up about the death of his father, the unraveling of an 18-year marriage, and the religious identity he had to dismantle in order to find the truth of who he really was.

Hunter and Mark dive into the internal war men face when they feel stuck between faith, ego, and emotional survival. Mark shares how a single moment in prayer reshaped his understanding of God, how the pain of divorce became the second-best decision of his life, and how he learned to lead himself before leading others.

They discuss what real masculinity looks like, how religious performance can become spiritual ego, and why most men never heal because they are too afraid to face the little boy inside them. Mark also introduces his five-dimensional framework and explains why building Empowered Man was never about business; it was about giving men a place to become whole again.

This conversation is for any man who feels like he’s losing everything, and needs to hear that it’s not the end. It might be the beginning.
