Bi-weekly Mondays | 6–7 PM | Hosted by Matt. This group offers a safe, supportive space for men of all backgrounds to connect, share, and reflect on what it means to embrace a more mindful, authentic masculinity.

Together, we explore how to show up more fully—as friends, sons, fathers, partners, brothers, and members of our communities.

Sessions alternate between open forums and themed discussions, with topics shaped by the interests and needs of the group.

All are welcome—come as you are.

About the host:

My name is Matt Catlin,   From a young age I have questioned what the world around me had attempted to teach me as societal norms for many things but very specifically the expectations of men within their roles in family and community. That has brought me to engage those around me often in conversations in regards to men and emotions. 

   As I learned about groups such as this popping up I was very exited to find something locally to get involved with. I started attending here and there in the beginning just because it felt like life was always getting in the way. The more I came the more I got out of it and next thing I knew, I was attending regularly. As John, the facilitator made some life changes that took him out of the area, he asked if I would step in during his absence. Being that community connection and support are so important to me, I couldn’t have been more flattered and honored to step up to this responsibility. 

   My background is mostly medical as I spent 9 years as a medic in the New York Army National Guard with one tour in Iraq. After coming home I went to school for nursing, social work, and automotive mechanics. 

   We welcome all men, of every background, any walk of life. Come join and meet the men in your community already doing the work. Sit and observe or join in the conversation. There’s no wrong way to show up.
