Summary |
In Man Up Gomez takes a candid look at his own life--the man he was, the man he is, and the man he one day hopes to be--and distills lessons that he picked up along his adventures in life. A tool for impact and an agent for positive social change, Man Up galvanizes men--but also mothers, girlfriends, wives, and sisters--to rethink and redefine the way that all men interact with women, deal with violence, handle fear, and express emotion. |
