Built by a father in the same fight.
Reforming Fatherhood is led by Chris Cirullo — Army Ranger, father of six, and a founder who built and sold software before giving himself to this work.
He built this benchmark on a simple conviction: the men carrying the most are usually the ones flying blind about everything that matters more than the business — their wives, their kids, and the God they answer to.
