About Trev Warnke: The Journey Behind the Brotherhood

Success on the Outside. Misalignment on the Inside.

Most entrepreneurs spend years building a life that looks good — until one day they realize it doesn’t feel good.

That was my story.
And it’s one of the reasons the Brotherhood exists today.

You can read Our Origin Story to understand the bigger picture of how this all started, but this blog is the personal side of that journey.

The Entrepreneurial Upbringing

I grew up in an entrepreneurial home.
My dad ran multiple businesses.
My mom flipped houses.
Hard work, responsibility, and leadership were part of my DNA from day one.

But the flip side?
Entrepreneurship often meant isolation.
Watching my family carry everything alone shaped how I led later in life.

Building Businesses — and Burning Out

I built gyms.
I coached business owners.
I launched marketing companies.

From the outside, it looked like I had momentum.
But inside?
I was running myself into the ground.
I was out of alignment.
And I was leading completely alone.

This tension is the very thing we talk about inside the Brotherhood — and it’s why our Positioning Statement is so clear about who we serve.

The Moment Everything Shifted

My life changed the day I joined a mastermind.

Not because someone gave me a tactic —
but because for the first time, I had men around me who…

  • Spoke truth

  • Challenged me

  • Believed in my potential

  • Held me accountable

  • Saw who I was becoming

It was the first time I felt sharpened as a man — not just as a business owner.

That experience showed me what men desperately needed:
Brotherhood. Truth. Accountability. Leadership.

The very pillars that later became our Credo.

Why I Lead the Brotherhood

I lead this movement because I’ve lived both sides:
The success that feels empty…
and the brotherhood that brings life back into a man.

My mission is simple:
To help entrepreneurial men build harmony in their marriages, families, health, business, and legacy.

To help men become the CEO of their own life — not just their business.
To help men win at home with the same intensity they win at work.

And to create war-rooms across the country where men grow together.
