The Men’s Circle

What is the Men’s Circle?

The Men’s Circle is a confidential online support group hosted by Martin. It provides a grounded, compassionate space for men to gather, listen, speak, and grow in authentic connection with one another. Each gathering invites presence, vulnerability, and strength — all within a container of trust.

Benefits of Joining


Group sharing

Who is This For?

This space is open to all men — whether you are feeling lost or grounded, overwhelmed or curious. You might be navigating stress, isolation, fatherhood, grief, healing, or simply longing for more connection. All parts of you are welcome here.

Why Men Gather

For generations, men have gathered in firelit circles to speak, witness, and find meaning in shared experience. The modern world often separates us — from each other, from our bodies, from our emotions. The Men’s Circle is a return. A return to community, to grounded strength, to listening without fixing, and to speaking without shame. It’s not about perfection — it’s about presence.

Join the Circle

We gather online once a month via Zoom, with optional in-person meetups and seasonal rituals throughout the year. No prior experience is needed. Just bring your presence, a willingness to listen, and the courage to speak.

Words from the Circle

“I’ve never spoken so honestly before. Being heard without judgement changed something in me.”

“The Circle helped me remember I’m not alone in this. It gave me permission to feel.”

“This space has taught me to breathe again, to connect, and to stand in myself.”

What Happens in a Session?

  • 🔸 Opening breath and brief grounding practice
  • 🔸 Time to share what’s real — speaking or listening only
  • 🔸 Themed reflection or question (optional)
  • 🔸 Closing circle + check-out

You’re never required to speak. Silence is welcome. Everything shared is confidential. This is a space of respect, not performance.
