We built the community we needed

We wanted one place where men could talk about work, home and faith all in the same conversation. We couldn't find that, so we set out to create it.

What started as a dream became a reality. Now men show up every week to get better as leaders at home and at work.

You'll find brothers here who ask how your marriage is going, not just how business is going. You'll get coaching you can use this week and men who won't let you settle for good enough when you know you're built for more.

We want to be around men who make us better. If that's what you're after too, join us.

OUR VALUES

Rooted in Faith


 

We build our lives on Jesus. Rooted in faith, timeless principles and wisdom, our foundation gives us the strength to weather storms, live with purpose, lead with humility and pursue what matters most.

Live Intentionially


 

We walk in truth and humility, honoring each man's journey. Through genuine relationships and open hearts, we build trust that runs deep. Our strength grows as we share our stories, listen with empathy and stand beside each other in life's real moments.

Aim For Impact


 

When we grow, our families flourish, our teams excel, our communities thrive. We align our energy and efforts where they matter most, creating change that spans generations.

About RISE Founder - Cory Carlson


 

As an entrepreneur, former executive, husband and father of three, Cory understands the pressures working men face. He is passionate about helping business leaders win at work and at home.

Twenty years in corporate America gave Cory amazing opportunities as he worked his way up to the executive level. But he also saw brokenness: work without purpose, burnout, lack of focus, strained marriages and absentee parents. Business leaders especially were often not living life to the fullest.

When Cory discovered leadership coaching, it helped him become a better leader, husband and father. So he left his corporate career to help other leaders win at work and at home. Cory does this through executive coaching, speaking and the RISE community.

Currently, Cory lives in Cincinnati with his awesome wife and three amazing children.

Cory has a Civil Engineering degree from the University of Missouri and an MBA from Rockhurst University.

Coach, Author, Speaker & Podcast Host


In addition to coaching and speaking, Cory is the author of Win at Home First, an inspirational guide for work-life balance - and Rise and Go, a resource to help leaders get back up quicker after getting knocked down.
He also hosts the Win at Home First podcast.
