Men and ​Masculinity

Embodying Authentic Masculinity: A 12-week online transformational container for men

Redefine Strength. Cultivate Virtue. Lead with Integrity.

At Being Free Together, we believe in the power of authentic, balanced, and virtuous masculinity. Our transformative counseling program, ​Embodying Authentic Masculinity, is designed to help men like you cultivate and embody the virtues essential to a fulfilling and impactful ​life.

Why Join Embodying Authentic Masculinity?

In today’s world, men are often caught between outdated stereotypes and modern expectations. True strength lies not in conforming to ​these pressures but in developing a character rooted in integrity, compassion, and resilience. There is a hero’s journey available to us all but ​all too often our growth is stunted by fears about picking up the sword and confronting the dragons in front of us. Our program offers a ​structured yet flexible approach to personal growth, helping you redefine what it means to be a man in a way that feels deeply authentic ​and empowering.

Navigating Life’s Roles and Expectations

As men, we find ourselves juggling various roles—son, father, brother, lover, husband, boyfriend—all while contending with societal ​obligations and “shoulds.” This program is designed to help you balance these roles with a deep sense of what is good and right, rooted in ​your own values and convictions.

Exploring the Shadows

A key element of our program is deep shadow work, where you will examine the parts of yourself that are hard to look at and acknowledge ​both the dark shadow and the golden shadow of your unrealized positive potential. This process is essential for authentic self-discovery and ​growth, allowing you to confront and integrate these aspects of yourself into a balanced and whole identity.

Our program is divided into four legs, each focusing on one of the key archetypes to provide a comprehensive framework for understanding ​and embodying healthy masculinity:
