THE TABLE
Embodied Men's Group
Since participating in my first men’s group in 2011, I have sat in around a dozen different men’s groups across the country.
Throughout my time with different groups, I’ve had experiences that were deeply rewarding and others that were pretty lackluster. And while I deeply value the work that can happen in 1:1 settings, there are different parts of us that come alive when we are being witnessed by a group, and more still that come alive as we find some belonging within a group.
I’d like to invite you to be part of a small group of men practicing honest presence and real connection.
This is a place for men who want to be known by other men without having to perform, fix, or pretend.
This won’t be a therapy group, but it may hold therapeutic value. We won’t be trying to solve one another’s lives. Instead, we’ll practice something simpler and rarer: honest presence, real listening, and the kind of connection that comes from being met as you are.
For many men, there isn’t a place to bring our deeper questions, our quiet wins, our longings, the places where things feel unresolved – The Table is meant to be that place.
Together, we’ll explore both the familiar and the often-unspoken parts of life as men. We’ll meet one another in the truth that we are already enough, while also inviting more — more aliveness, more connection, more of ourselves.
I will be facilitating the group to encourage depth, safety and momentum. Each meeting will have a simple structure, with time for every man to check in and speak to his current experience, as well as time for exploring a particular facet of manhood.
We’ll balance the agenda with openness to what emerges from the group, and there will be a mix of full-group conversation, smaller groups, and paired sharing.
You don’t need prior experience with men’s groups and you don’t need to know what you’ll say. All I ask is that you show up honestly.
