Powerful and loving
MENTORING
For men ready for deeper friendship and real support
You may have
already tried...
Therapy which can be profoundly impactful, but may feel artificial, lacking the reciprocity of friendship and mutual care.
Men's groups which can be powerful spaces to get to know other men and share about yourself, but often lacks the space to get deeper insight and support around relationships -- that is not advice giving or a nudge to just focus on personal responsibility.
Coaching where you have a dedicated ally and support offering you guidance, but not able to go deeper into emotional terrain and give you more integrated support.
Peak Growth Intensives which can be potent and life changing, but leave you without much solid ground (accountability and support) to stand on afterwards.
What it really takes...
To create the depth of intimacy and growth you are seeking as a man - within yourself, with your partner, kids, and everyone you care about - it takes the addition of the following...
-
Other committed men who have depth and breadth of life experience.
-
A group which meets weekly where you feel both supported and challenged to grow.
-
Where all of you is welcome and more of you is waiting to be found.
-
A place to fully unmask, discover who you really are, and heal at a core level.
AND... a powerful community where the focus is not just on you but on what matters even more that yourself... all your relationships.
That's what we call...
The MASTERHEART

Imagine how deep weekly support would allow you to evolve yourself and all your vital relationships...
"I'd been in men's groups and
had done a LOT of personal growth, but...
...I was missing some key support in maintaining nourishing and healthy relationships.
Masterheart is a place where I get to practice relational skills, help resolve my unhealthy relationship patterns, and build supportive friendships with other men.
I am constantly inspired by how the other guys in the group are facing their lives - they help me strive to be the best man I can be.
I know that my partner and daughter are grateful for this group!”
~ Michael McCarthy
"The reciprocal culture within
this real community was a
game changer for me."
~ Ben Zimmer (see below)
"I created the deep support I needed to help me go beyond striving and finally start thriving in my own marriage and life!"
~ David Jurasek (founder)
Not your daddy's men's group:
A Relational Paradigm
Whether your focus is on your intimate partner, your business, your family, friendships, your body, nature, a higher Power, or some other aspect of life you care about, in THE MASTERHEART, we focus on how we relate to everything because...
How I relate to one being
is how I relate to all beings.
Our approach is not single minded but an integrative open system which focuses on these 5 essential domains:
CORE COMMITMENTS
essential to growing deeper bonds
and the skills to master relationships
Weekly MASTERHEART CIRLE:
Once a week you meet with a core group of 4-6 men who come to know you deeply to reflect authentically on what is moving us most and to give and receive high quality feedback.
It happens on zoom (and phone for some) for 90 mins. Groups meet at different times - some for longer duration.

SECONDARY COMMITMENTS
(as you are able)
-
NATURAL ACCOUNTABILITY Calls (75 mins/week): As a larger pack, we meet to explore a chosen theme, skill or strategy together in a practical and enrichening way. Past and re-occuring explorations have been around diverse points such as: death, sex, shame, anger and violence, fatherhood, and money.
-
BUDDY CALLS: we commit to connecting to at least one other member of the group once a week to simply check in with one another.
-
PRIVATE ONLINE SHARING SPACE: we encourage spontaneous sharing within the PAL online community. And we also have an exclusive private circle for intimate sharing just within our circle.
RE: Meeting online or in person?
NOTE - since the pandemic, we have shifted to meeting primarily online though it needs to be noted that in many ways we have grown closer and deepened our relational skills in new and innovative ways.
AND we do meet in person, every month or so safely and intentionally.
How much does it cost?
We ask for each man to...
PAY-From-The-HEART
Which means to contribute within the range below that is sustainable to you, while also nourishing to us...
$150 - 250* CAD/month
* If you need to tend to core survival, we ask men to contribute $100
** And if finances are still an issue, please note that in the application
