This is a place for men to be real, not only to express what's going on for us, but to learn from the experience of others who are also prepared to drop their mask and be vulnerable. We share with each other about our stories of where we come from, and what is going on in our lives now. This allows us to gain an understanding of the others that we often do not gain through normal friendships. Through the processes of opening up and learning to trust each other, we overcome part of the isolation that is inherent in modern life.

Being part of a men’s group work helps strengthen our relationships with women in many ways. First and foremost, it can take a huge amount of burden and pressure off our intimate relationship to be our everything when it comes to emotional connection. Often men’s intimate relationship with their woman is the only outlet they have for deep and meaningful connection. When our woman is our everything, it means we have a lot riding on the wellbeing of our relationship.

Being part of a men’s group counteracts that in many ways. It gives us a support system outside of our partner we can vent to, and like mentioned before can often point out our bullshit or what we’re missing. Many times a guy will come in all fired up about something happening in his relationship, 100% convinced his partner was entirely to blame. Yet, after sharing and getting feedback from the group, had the deep and often painful realization that he actually held a lot of the blame for what was happening. Instead of going home to have a fight with his partner, suddenly he’s going home with a deeper appreciation of her and desire to connect.

Each week we make an individual commitment to doing something meaningful in our lives, and are held to account the following week to how we lived up to our word. Through these small acts of striving, we experience being seen as we edge our way towards a better version of ourselves.
