a better relationship begins with you.

an 8-week, weekly, virtual men’s group focused on improving relational self-awareness

Relationships are hard. Whether you’re single and wanting to find partnership, going through a breakup or a divorce and wanting to build a deeper relationship with yourself, or in a committed partnership, wanting to show up differently - this is your place.

This is a space dedicated to empowering men to thrive in their relationships with partners, friends, and themselves. Our group provides a supportive space where you can develop essential skills, gain insights into modern masculinity, and build deeper, more meaningful connections.

If vulnerability scares you a little bit, welcome to the club. 

Men aren’t celebrated for sharing their feelings. In fact, they are usually shamed out of them. Not here. Vulnerability is an act of bravery and we see you. Come hang out with us as we build community, strengthen our relationships, break free from patterns keeping you stuck or small, and reconnect to a sense of meaning. 

Whether you’re learning to navigate life as a new dad,  going through a divorce, or working through resentment, this group of men will be here to wade through it with you. In this space, we welcome YOU, the real you, the man behind the masks... we welcome the good, the bad, your gold and your shadow.

“No amount of love can make up for a lack of loving, honest and abundant communication.” - Jillian Turecki
