Founder of America's Fastest-Growing Patriotic Brand: The Hard Truth About Patriotism | Ep. 329

Most men are chasing success…

But very few are asking the real question:

 

What do you actually stand for?

 

In this episode of The Super Human Life, Coach Frank Rich sits down with entrepreneur and CEO of Volition America, John Sapiente, to unpack the moment that changed everything—a "patriotic awakening" that forced him to rethink his life, his priorities, and the legacy he was building.

 

What started as a simple charitable event turned into a 16-year journey of purpose, service, and impact.

 

This conversation goes far beyond business.

It's about identity, responsibility, and the power of choice.

About John Sapiente

John Sapiente is a business owner, entrepreneur, and the CEO of Volition America—a purpose-driven lifestyle brand built to support military and first responder families through the Folds of Honor Foundation.

 

With a background in manufacturing and medical device companies, John didn't set out to build a brand. His journey began after what he calls a "patriotic awakening"—a life-changing experience at a Folds of Honor event where he witnessed firsthand the sacrifices made by military families.

 

That moment shifted everything.

 

Since then, John has dedicated himself to building Volition America into more than just a company—it's a movement centered around choice, unity, service, and legacy.

 

Through strategic partnerships, mission alignment, and a commitment to giving back, Volition America donates a portion of every sale to Folds of Honor while spreading awareness and inspiring people to live with intention.
