What we’re about
Hey!
It may look like there are very few of us here – but most men sign up via www.MensGroups.co.uk. We always keep our breakout rooms small and personal.
MenSpeak Men’s Groups are a safe and confidential space to hang out, be heard, and get real.
We drop the ‘nice guy’, ‘macho man’, or whatever masks that we’ve been wearing so we can show up as our authentic selves, and explore who we really are. We learn from one another's experiences and grow from 'maskuline' into authentic masculine.
Sadly it’s become normal to turn to drink, drugs, sex, porn, money, power, abuse or victimhood as a way of coping. Instead, we acknowledge what we've been through and we accept who and how we've been, as we test-drive who we might want to be, taking the best of our ourselves out, into the world.
Many men live in fear and fantasy, second guessing and surviving life, rather than meeting life with embodied presence, purpose, passion and personal power. As authentic men we are able to adjust our sails to harness the winds of change, navigating life’s challenges, whilst staying true to ourselves.
MenSpeak men's groups are facilitated, not lead, meaning that our spaces are non-hierarchical and non-clinical. We meet the needs of the men present and follow wherever the conversation naturally takes us. There isn’t a right or wrong way of doing things.
Wherever you are on your path of self-discovery, men’s groups can provide a community to support you and help you to find peace, purpose and passion in life.

Do you sometimes lack purpose, passion and sense of belonging?
Would you like to explore who you really are, beyond money, muscles and monkeying around- and trying to fill an emotional hole with egotistical exploits, rather than trying to be whole?
Many men sadly turn to self-abuse such as, drink, drugs and porn and unhealthy relationships as a way of coping. Johann Hari said, “The opposite of addiction is not sobriety; the opposite of addiction is connection. Men's groups provide the social medicine men need."
**Attendee numbers here do not reflect attendance, as we use multiple sites - this is not a ghost town!**
In a nutshell a men’s group is men sitting together in their social community, workplace or online; talking and listening to one another*,* learning from each-other’s experiences.
It’s a place to explore who we are, who we no longer need to be, and how we can lead better, fuller lives. A place where we can grow in authenticity; a place without a pecking order, judgement, blame, or shame, where everybody knows your name.

Do you sometimes lack purpose, passion, a sense of belonging?
Would you like to be in a confidential space where you can discuss any aspect of your life, including your relationships, work, sense of safety, health and hormones.
An AllGenderSpeak group welcomes people of all genders, where we can simply sit together in a safe space to share what's going on in our lives, learning from one another's experiences, noticing, acknowledging and celebrating what's good, gaining inspiration to change what's not, and simply accept 'what is'.
We can support one another to be better, more authentic people, without telling each other what to do or how to be. There is no pressure and it’s fine to say "Pass” when it’s your turn to speak.
We are accepting, accountable and we want more out of life.
We explore who we are, who we no longer need to be, and how we can lead better, fuller lives.
We'll be following Kenny's group Ground Rules - please check them out before you attend and suggest any changes before we begin.
TIME: 5:45pm for a 6pm start, ends 7pm.
COST: By donation https://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-menspeak-to-save-lives-marriages-and-marbles
It's not a therapy group, not an encounter group, not a group for or against women or men or any gender, not a religious group, not a political group, not a group of anything apart from whatever the women present bring to it.
- MenAware : Feedback on how you come across - for dating & your professional lifeUp in the Gods near St Paul's Cathedral, London£80.00
Do you want to be a more authentic man - oozing personal power, potent presence, living with passion and purpose?
Do you want to know how you come across to others and how to align your public face with the authentic man in you?
Everyone (I know) finds an authentic man is far more irresistible than muscles, money, or monkeying about with the best act on the scene! This goes for your personal, as well as professional life - who wants to work with a cheap fraudster / or be with someone who wants you for ‘the wrong reasons’?
We’ll discuss personal and professional relationship issues, enabling you to embody your authentic self beyond the old survival masks that have failed to attract what you truly want in life.
One of the most powerful aspects of this workshop is the option (not compulsory) to be filmed on your own phone when given feedback and suggestions to try out, right there and then.
Participants usually find this transformational as they see how they come across, how they can instantly adjust themselves and how those around them change the way they respond to them.
Please come with a phone with enough space and battery charge.
You will not be under any pressure to do anything for the workshop - one of our Ground Rules is that you can say “Pass” to any question or exercise. Please read the Ground Rules before attending
Please arrive at 6.45 for a 7pm start. The workshop ends at 9pm.
£80 regular rate, £60 early bird*, £50 closed group men / MenSpeak facilitators. (early bird* ends at midnight on 12th May). Space is limited to 8 men.Please use this PayPal link for immediate payment, bring cash on the day, or email info@themanwhisperer.co.uk for my bank details to transfer money.
