Forge The Man Podcast
Welcome to Forge the Man, a Fairest Love Podcast hosted by US Military Veteran and Retired Firefighter Paul Ybarra. This Podcast is dedicated to calling young men to greatness in their work, character, and relationships. Guided under the mantle of Mary, Mother of Fairest Love, and the heroic spirituality of St. Josemaría Escrivá, our intention is to build men for professional mastery and the noble vocation of marriage or becoming a father of souls.
