EP230: Eric Axelrod - Why Successful Men Are Part Of A Brotherhood 

Written By Chris Rodd

“When something real comes up in your life, who do you talk to about it?” 

Men don’t lose their edge because they stop trying—they lose it because they try to do everything alone. Brotherhood creates a space where men are forced to see themselves clearly, confront patterns that no longer serve them, and stay anchored to purpose when life gets unstable. Growth doesn’t happen in isolation. It happens when men are challenged, reflected, and held to a higher standard by other men who care enough to tell the truth. 

Eric Axelrod talks about his experience with men’s work. How men’s circles expose blind spots around anger, listening, leadership, and emotional discipline. Brotherhood isn’t about advice—it’s about being asked the questions that lead you to the answers you need, accountability, and seeing yourself in other men’s trials and triumphs. 

Professionally, Eric is the founder of Pinnacle Search Professionals, a recruiting firm for the Regulated Industry. He built his company around a simple principle: depth beats breadth. By working within a clear niche and only taking on searches he knows can be filled well, Eric emphasizes discipline, clarity, and follow-through—values that mirror his approach to leadership and men’s work. He's deeply involved in men’s initiation work and leadership development, helping preserve and carry forward transformational men’s training. His focus is on building strong masculine communities where men develop clarity, emotional control, purpose, and resilience—skills that compound over time and impact families, businesses, and future generations.
