3 Things Men Desperately Need but Never Say Out Loud

Published: Tue, 08/09/16

Hey,

I think I know who you are.

You wouldn't be reading this email if you weren't a thinking man who desires more depth, more authenticity and more impact in the world.  You're tired of swimming in the shallow end of life wondering if you'll ever be able to engage in the conversations and connections you really want.

Or that just me?  Am I unfairly projecting my own crap on you?

I think not.

I think you want more and I know you deserve more.  I've found that men are starved in meeting 3 important emotional needs.  These are the needs of Significance, Contribution and Growth.  

  • We want to feel like we lived, loved and mattered. 
  • We want to feel like what we give to the world is something of value.  
  • And we want to feel like we are learning and moving forward in a meaningful way.

I believe that men need other quality men in their life to achieve this.  We need other men we can trust.  Men with whom we can share our dreams and our fears. Men who are both strong and shamelessly transparent.  Men who believe in us even more than we believe in ourselves sometimes.

Even if you live in Timbuktu and can't attend my August 20th Men's Overnight Retreat...there's something I want you to know.

You need quality men in your life.  Too many of us wind up all alone in the corner of a nursing home watching the old ladies laughing and playing Pinochle (it's a card game). 

I want you to find a retreat or ANY group of quality men you can trust. You only need one other man to create your own men's group.  Who do you know?  What about someone 20 years older than you?  What about someone 20 years younger?

Who can you find in your life who is also seeking more depth and connection?

There are millions of us out there, but we hide behind a mask of self-reliance.  We need men like you to call bullshit on that and pull our mask off.  This may require you to pull off your own mask first.

And if you've got the time and the means to make it to my sliver of paradise on August 20, 2016, we will help you with that mask.

The retreat goes from 11am to 6pm but ends up being about 24 hrs. long if you choose the optional tent camping perk.  If you're any good at math, that comes to about $12 per hour including lunch, dinner and breakfast in bed..well, the part about "in bed is a lie.

We're going to focus on making your next 30 yrs. very different than your last 30 yrs. 

Find out more here and register before it's too late.  A few more spots are still open.  

Register now for the August 20, 2016 Men's Overnight Retreat in Livermore, Colorado.


Hope to see you here!


Lotta love, brother,

Steve


P.S.  If you're finding it hard to reach out to another man for friendship and support, you can practice with me.  I always say "Hell yes" to a conversation. Warning:  They're not "free".  You will need to invest your time, energy and presence.  I will do the same for you.
