The Brotherhood [Motivation Support Group] (Westerly, RI)

We’re living in an era where men’s mental health is often downplayed. Men who struggle with motivation or mental health in general are sometimes stigmatized — and unjustly so.

The constant, snowballing growth of social media is ironically a major contributor to the disconnection many men experience today.

Many support groups unfortunately revolve solely around venting without a solution. The Brotherhood is different because it prioritizes increasing motivation, addressing core issues, and identifying practical solutions that help men live more meaningful, fulfilled lives. Forming genuine friendships is also a central component of this group.

Aside from being male and struggling with motivation, the only requirement for joining The Brotherhood is that you’re prepared to offer support to others as well as receive it. As men, empathy is often brushed aside. In reality, connecting with your inner empathy is courageous and a core aspect of masculinity. If a man cannot put himself in another person’s shoes, he will struggle to truly support others on their journeys.

Your desire for increased motivation can relate to whatever genuinely matters to you: starting a business, getting into better shape, earning a promotion, learning a new skill, or becoming a better husband, father, or son.

I myself am far from perfect, and hope to learn just as much knowledge as I can hopefully impart onto others. If you are someone with an uncontrollable ego, the tendency to monopolize conversations, or a desire to be the center of attention, this is not the right group for you. Being humble and leaving one’s ego at the door is the way true growth occurs.

If you’re up to the challenge, join The Brotherhood and start the process of bettering your life today.
