The Way of Man
This is a 6 month LIVE training program for MEN
who are ready to claim the life they’re here to live.
This masterfully held program will take place both online and in person
- with two calls per month on Zoom - and with an immersion in late February in the mountains of North Carolina.
This program will inspire you to become the best version of yourself,
challenge you in the ways you hold yourself back and have a direct and
deep impact on the way you hold and perceive your relationships, your
professional career, and the vision of what you are here to do with your life.
This program will change your life.
This is the moment you’ve been waiting for.
This is not another “men’s group.”
This is an education and initiation into a radically empowered life — a full-scale reclamation of the masculine spirit that modern culture has forgotten.
Why This Exists:
Every man reaches a moment when the life he’s living no longer matches the potential he can feel inside him. Confusion, disempowerment, lack of direction - beneath it all burns a knowing: there’s more. What’s often missing is a map… a container that forges clarity, strength, and vision through challenge, initiation, and brotherhood.
This program is that map.
It is a living synthesis of thousands of years of initiatory wisdom, modern psychological mastery, embodied masculine practice, and spiritual attunement—woven into a path designed for men who refuse to live small lives.
This program was born at the intersection of two defining forces in my life: my own passage through the fires of transformation—building a life beyond anything I once imagined—and over a decade of guiding men through circles, immersions, and coaching into lasting, embodied change. It is the culmination of lived experience and proven initiation, forged to awaken men into their highest potential.
Together, we explore the timeless frameworks of masculinity across history, the initiations men once walked through, the emotional and energetic mastery required to thrive, and the clarity of mission, integrity, and leadership needed to build lives of substance.
This is not a course.
It’s a modern-day initiation—a crucible for men ready to rise into their full power, claim their place as stewards of love and life, and walk alongside other men doing the same.

To Way find is to orient oneself and navigate not only through the physical world, but also through the energetic and spiritual landscapes that shape reality. It is the art of perceiving and interpreting cues—environmental, intuitive, and transcendent—to chart pathways toward a destination or calling. Way finding involves both the cognitive skill of gathering and evaluating information, and the embodied practice of attunement: sensing currents of energy, listening to the unseen, and aligning with deeper guidance. It is an integrative act of movement, awareness, and communion with the visible and invisible forces that inform true direction.
