“KINGDOM” — Men’s Group Coaching Program
Small group coaching experiences that combine the benefits of group connection,
1-on-1 attention, and in-person weekend retreats.
“Never give a sword to a man who can’t dance.”
-Celtic Proverb-
Men’s + Women’s Circles, Workshops, and Live Experiences designed to help heal the Divide
btwn Men & Women.
“I bring men’s circles and women’s circles together at last so that men and women can remember and learn each other again — because “the Battle of the Sexes” must end! Our families, children, and communities require healthy relationships, and no one taught us how to be in healthy relationships!
Face to face, it is time to put our weapons down and start serving each other again
as Sacred Man & Woman.” - Mikaal
Tribal Technology
I had no choice but to find a way through.
Through the embarrassment of never being taught
how to be a man.
Through the resulting sacrilege of a life of perpetual boyhood, people pleasing, and uninitiated masculinity.
Through all my failed relationships, devastated over and over again. Through the weight of generational shame.
Through the confusion of being told I was “toxic” or “the problem”
or “The Patriarchy” without ever being given a path or a solution.
Somewhere along the way, I started to wonder:
Where is the map?
Where are the elders, the mentors, the guides?
What happened to the Rites of Passage that used to mark our way to mature, healthy adulthood?
Men are falling into confusion and distraction.
Women are rising into overwhelm and frustration.
Men and women have been cast as enemies.
Fathers have disappeared.
Mothers are overburdened.
Sons turned into surrogate husbands.
Daughters left to raise themselves.
The Way Forward
There is a way through.
For all of us.
For you.
Even in these challenging times.
The thing is, none of us were meant to do this alone.
I owe who I am to the long line of teachers, mentors,
coaches, elders, traditions, and lineages
whose classes, ashrams, workshops, websites, and
1-bedroom apartments I myself found my way to
over the decades, just as you are now.
I am in the arena with you.
That is the way I teach, lead, coach, relate.
And I furiously believe all deserve the peace that comes
on the other side of transformation.
If you feel called to this work, reach out —
you won’t be redirected to my assistant
or put into a sales funnel …
You’ll connect with me directly.
Email to email, and then, if it feels right to speak,
we’ll set up a Zoom call or in-person meeting
to see what wants happens next.
I truly look forward to meeting you.
