Craving connection, belonging, support and purpose?
Men aren’t born knowing how to thrive in all aspects of life. We need to share our innate wisdom with each other.
For ages men have gathered around the campfire to share wisdom and offer support and camaraderie to each other. The disconnection, lack of support and loneliness that men feel today isn’t natural. It’s time to connect to co-create a supportive, wise subculture together to help us cope with an arguably insane mainstream culture.
Let’s reconnect to the tradition of gathering in a powerful group of like-minded men to get the support we need to fulfill our highest purpose. Let's discover who we are told to be by our culture, who we really are, and intend towards the fullest expression of a completely-embodied, strong and connected man.
We are a team of men who meet on-line, each week, for 8-weeks. Each session includes guided meditation, a topic of discussion chosen by the group (ideas listed below) along with a chance to speak, be heard, listen and receive accountability/support as requested. The call is 1.5 hours, 7-8:15 pm MTN, Tuesday nights so that everyone can wrap up their business and family/social lives to fully focus on the call.
The group is co-facilitated by Erik Vienneau, LPC-C and Travis Rumsey. We are perfect for men who are either going through a life transition like marriage, fatherhood, divorce or other loss and/or looking to grow into a more fulfilled, connected and confident version of themselves.
