Empower the Man. Elevate the Family.

Cornel L. Johnson is a husband, mentor, certified peer specialist, and transformation coach with a passion for helping men redefine strength from the inside out. With decades of lived experience — from the trades to leadership, from mistakes to mastery — Cornel teaches that every man has the power to lead, love, and live differently once he understands himself.

“You can’t restore what you won’t repair — and you can’t lead what you haven’t learned to love.”

E.M.P.O.W.E.R. is more than a workbook — it’s a roadmap for men ready to do the internal work that transforms every part of life: relationships, faith, family, and purpose.

Each phase builds on the next:

• E – Educate: Learn your story.
• M – Mentor: Lead and be led.
• P – Prepare: Build new habits and discipline.
• O – Overcome: Face resistance with courage.
• W – Work: Take daily action toward change.
• E – Elevate: Rise above your old limits.
• R – Restore: Return to your best self.

The framework was built not from theory but from transformation — man to man, brother to brother.
