MEN'S WORK — A PRACTICAL FIELD GUIDE FOR EVOLVING MEN
The other day, Jesse Elder inspired me to start thinking about what a "men's group" actually is — and if it's truly useful.
We've all seen the trope: man buns, primal screams, drums, and tears. But what is men's work really? And have we ever done the math?
Well… I've started doing the math. And out of those computations, conversations, and lived experience has come something solid: A five-part mythic arc—and a new chapter for Modern Day Warrior.
The mythic arc will roll out on social media soon. Here's the first truth:
I. The Core Truth: You're Responsible for Your Own Resistance
"The worst thing we can do is try to find someone who we think can break down our resistances for us."
That's the most valuable truth about men's work — and almost no one says it aloud.
The group doesn't dissolve your resistance; it reminds you to face it. That's the real function. It's not a crutch — it's a mirror. No one can remove your block. But a good man, or a good circle, can help you see it more clearly — and then it's still on you to act.
💥 More soon. The Forge opens in a few weeks.
