October Men's Circle is now open for registrations.
Sessions run each Tuesday 7:30pm-9:30pm AEDT
for 6 x weeks beginning 21st October, 2025.
A place to connect – to self, to others and to a more authentic experience of what it means to be you.
Purpose
To cultivate and nurture a space for men to connect with self and others. To learn, to grow, to take greater responsibility for our lives and the impact we have on others. To be of service to our relationships, families, communities and the planet upon which we live. To be more kind with ourselves and others.
Who is it for?
Men who feel stuck or frustrated and want to make a change but are uncertain about where or how to start.
Men who are ready to break the cycle of patterns of behaviour that are no longer working.
Men who desire personal growth and want to do this in the company of a brotherhood of men.
Men who have tried plenty of different strategies, programs, courses and are still, doing, the, same, thing.
Men who want to explore more healthy paradigms of masculinity and how to express that in their lives.
Men who desire connection and community and who want to share the journey with others.
Men who have the courage to embrace vulnerability, even if you’re tentative, who are open to truly listen to self and others.
Men who are generous and want to be of service to others and something greater than themselves.
Men who are consistent, reliable and willing to show up for themselves and others.
Here’s what past participants are saying:
-
Who would have thought a bunch of men, strangers mostly, could open my heart so, with just a few words and a bit of connection?

You have cultivated a space for men from all walks of life to feel comfortable and welcomed into a community that strives for deep reflection, vulnerability and accountability. Thank you for your commitment, love and care for me and the others in this group. You’re an inspiring leader of Men.

Joining this men's circle group has been a profound opportunity for men to experience personal growth and emotional support in a safe, non-judgmental environment. This group has fostered self-awareness, improved communication, and accountability, while also fostering deep connections and a sense of belonging.
Peter
-
You have created such a beautiful space for men to be vulnerable and feel connected.
Mark
-
I owe you so much thanks for everything so far! It's been on a level I couldn't have anticipated.
Reuben

Practical and inspiring, definitely a great way to describe Monday night’s circle conversations. Powerful stuff, facilitated brilliantly.
Nick

Joining a men's circle has been one of the best things I have done. It should be an essential part of life for modern men. It creates connection and supports a greater appreciation of healthy masculinity. It fills a void that I'm sure many men are not even aware of.

Joining the men's group has been a transformative experience for me. It provided a safe space where I could freely express my vulnerable self without the fear of judgment. This sense of security allowed me to explore and understand my emotions in a way I hadn't before. I’ve also forged deep connections and friendships within this group that have enriched my life. If you're considering joining, I wholeheartedly recommend it; it's an opportunity for personal growth, self-discovery, and meaningful connections that I'm truly grateful for.

Mikey's Mens Circle was transformational. Through listening and observing others, and sharing my own story, my own truth, it helped me understand a little further who I am, what's important, and how I should go about life. It has amplified a greater sense of awareness, and has moved me a little closer towards self confidence, contentment and self love. I am grateful for the brotherhood I have now become part of.

Having sat in others self help groups, I found this much more on point, specific to contemporary issues and relatable.
Ben

DO IT! You will absolutely get value from working with Mikey. I had reservations and I'd done Men's Work previously and thoroughly enjoyed my time in the company of other incredibly powerful, honest and vulnerable men.

What to Expect
-
✺ Connection
Weekly gatherings online. Connect from the safety of your own home. You’ll build connections and relationships with other men sharing a similar experience.
-
✺ Be Celebrated
You’re doing great. You’re human, too. There will be setbacks and lessons to learn but we’ll spend time each week focussing on the wins that happen too, and we’ll celebrate you.
-
✺ Be Challenged
We’re here to grow, to stretch into a better version of ourselves. That’s going to be unfamiliar and it’s going to take courage. You will be challenged and you will be supported.
-
✺ Integrate
You’ll get to know parts of yourself, some of which may have been hidden for most of your life. You’ll learn how to connect with these parts and build trust. This is a big step on your journey back home.
-
✺ Be Witnessed
Something very special and powerful happens when we get together and share our experiences. When we are seen, heard, witnessed and honoured by other men. It’s a gift to give and an honour to receive.
-
✺ Belong
Loneliness is perhaps one of the greatest mental and physical health challenges facing us in modern society. We no longer have places to gather, to connect and be in the company of others. This is a thriving community and you belong here.

✺ Frequently asked questions ✺
-
We meet online via zoom, join from wherever you are.
We also organise quarterly gatherings in person in Melbourne and the Gold Coast, you are invited to these and welcome to join.
-
We begin with a ritual opening of the space. There may be a poem or story shared, or a guided meditation.
We'll then check-in and begin. There is a protocol for how we operate, this will be communicated before we meet and reinforced throughout.
There will be a theme for discussion each week which we'll explore. You'll have the opportunity to share or to contribute as much or as little as you like.
We wrap up by honouring each other and what was shared and check out. This is a 2hr session.
-
You’re not alone! Most of the men in these circles are doing this for the first time and turn up with some trepidation and uncertainty.
You are guided and supported throughout, you’re not obliged to do or share anything you don’t want to.
The feedback after the first couple of sessions from most men is that they wished they’d done something like this a lot earlier in life.
-
That’s fine, it happens, you have other commitments and things pop up. We ask that you simply let the group know via our WhatsApp group.
You won’t be disadvantaged for missing a session and I’ll catch you up on what you missed.
-
Yes. Each circle has its own dedicated WhatsApp group chat to stay in touch and share updates throughout the week.
You will be paired up with another man to check-in with during the week. I get consistent feedback that these check-ins are one of the highlights of the program.
I email you during the week too, with some follow up resources. I’m available via WhatsApp, email and voice memos to support you through the duration of the course.
-
No. This is not therapy and it’s not a substitute for therapy. If you’re experiencing acute mental or physical issues, see a trained, qualified and registered professional.
This is a facilitated experience that may involve coaching. I’m a trained and qualified teacher and coach and have been doing this work for over 20 years.
