"As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another"

Why male mentoring?
In many ways, the arch of my spiritual, emotional, and physical development has been informed by my connection to the men in my life and the degree to which I truly inhabited my male body.
As a boy from divorced (then-both-remarried) parents, growing up in the cultural milieu of the 2000's, I emerged at 18 with 10,000 questions about what it means to be a man.
This took me on a hero's journey: asking my questions, finding my mentors and allies (both men and women), experiencing the traditional ways of male initiation, facing countless setbacks, and returning to the people with the gold of my learnings.
I look back at my life and clearly recognize that I would only be a fraction of my true potential if it weren't for men and women who entered my life only to speak to my potential greatness, to give me clear feedback on my arrogance and falsehoods, to show me the way into serving the world through my unique gifts.
It is my passion to serve other men and guide them in these ways. It is my prayer that all men find and know their wholeness, their divine spark of genius, and walk the path of self mastery.

Mentorship for Young Men
A Young Man in his teen years or early 20s is hungry for life, guidance. Traditionally, young men were taken in by older men and guided in the ways of wisdom, self mastery, service, and humility.
Without this sequence, a young man's inner development is stunted and adolescence continues as his body grows older.
"What's it all about and how can I be a part of it?"
"What are my gifts and how I can I offer them to the world?"
I walk with Young Men through these questions, as I was walked through them by my mentors.

Brother-to-Brother
The time of the Lone Wolf is over.
The pain of being an isolated man can be unbearable. We lose ourselves in this separation from our brothers and miss out on one of the greatest gifts of our lives: brotherhood.
I mentor and walk with men of all ages and developmental cycles. Through transitions, health challenges, and more—I walk with you, guiding, inquiring, and mentoring you in your life's journey.

Father-Son Mentoring
The relationship of Father and Son is sacred, challenging, inspiring, humbling, and beautiful.
Father and Son mentoring is a powerful way to bring intentionality into the relationship, to truly know one another, to have understanding, and to delight in the gift of sharing the sacred bond of father and son.
This work is healing all, including for generations behind and ahead.
