As the calendar turns to January, a fresh wave of anticipation and, for many, a subtle undercurrent of pressure, washes over us. The New Year often arrives with a symphony of expectations, a societal push towards grand resolutions and immediate transformations. Yet, beneath this clamor for change, t...

The year is almost done, and I couldn’t be more grateful.
Grateful for the men who showed up, spoke honestly, listened deeply, and chose connection over isolation. The support and love around The Men Spirit this year has been humbling.

Men need spaces where they don't have to perform. Where "I don't know" is a valid answer. Where emotions aren't weaknesses to manage, but signals to honor.
That's what we're building. And we're not stopping.

What's ahead excites me more.
We are committed to creating more of what men actually need:
-Safe spaces to speak without judgment
-Permission to feel without shame
-Connection over isolation
-A healthier relationship with masculinity and well being

We're opening a new Men's Circle in St Kilda and I'd love to see you there.

I want my daughters to see that the man I am today acknowledges the man I was. Mistakes happen, but it's about standing up again and loving yourself. Love starts from within; if you love yourself, that love pours out to everyone around you. It comes from an authentic place.

11/12/2025

I have some limited availability between Christmas and New Year.

If you’re struggling, or if you know any other men who might need some support, please reach out.
This can be a tough time of year for so many men.

And don’t forget, we have our last gathering on the 19th 💙

As the calendar flips to December, we find ourselves standing at a familiar crossroads. The festive season is upon us, bringing with it the promise of joy, connection, and a well-deserved rest. Yet, for many of us, this time of year also carries a heavy weight, the pressure of expectations, the stre...

I have a confession to make. For years, I was part of the Brotherhood of Complicity.

It's the unspoken agreement among men to stay silent when something feels wrong...to choose belonging over integrity. I've felt that knot in my stomach, that fear of being the one who "ruins the vibe." And every time I stayed quiet, a small piece of me disappeared.

But the cost of this silence is too high. It's not just about a joke or an uncomfortable moment; it's the same code that led to the devastating tragedy of Hannah Clarke. When we stay silent in the small moments, we reinforce the system that leads to the biggest ones.

I'm done with that code. My commitment now is to a new kind of strength: one that speaks up, one that chooses honesty, and one that demands better from myself and the men around me.

If you've ever felt the cost of that silence, I wrote this for you. It's time to break the code.

Read my full commitment and the resource on my empowerment page here:

A deep exploration of the Brotherhood of Complicity and how unspoken male codes enable harm. Learn how men can break the silence, heal, and lead real change.
