Men who have attended open circles and want to meet regularly with the same small group.

The group meets in person on an ongoing basis, giving participants time to get to know one another and continue conversations across meetings.

You don’t have to talk. Listening is participation, and plenty of men listen the first few times.
You don’t have to fix anyone. Nobody will try to fix you either — that is the agreement, said out loud at the start.
You don’t have to have a story ready. Men speak from their own experience, and “I don’t know yet” is an experience.
You don’t have to commit to returning. Try a gathering and decide whether you’d like to attend again.
You choose what to share about yourself and why you came.

Find another topic or format. Each circle follows the same shared agreements.

Fatherhood CircleFor dads, step-dads and the men who show up like one.
Divorce & Separation CircleSupport for men going through divorce or separation — the unraveling, and who you become on the other side.

Most circles are free. Find a date that works for you, and take part by listening or sharing.
