Lost in the fervent call for men to “be more”, is the fact that man already is more than he’s ever been. Almost unreasonably more.

Written with the goal of positively impacting the lives of 50 million men (and their families) for generations to come, The 7 Initiatory Fires of Modern Manhood is a practical guidebook and self-development path for modern men.

At a high level, The 7 Initiatory Fires of Modern Manhood is built upon the premise that, contrary to popular belief, “initiation” into manhood hasn’t disappeared. It’s simply been misunderstood. And that as a modern man, the grounds for deep and permanent transformation are already present in everyday life. Namely in intimate relationships, fatherhood, pursuit of purpose, business and livelihood, thriving physically and mentally in an unhealthy world, thriving emotionally and spiritually in an unbalanced world, and expressing fully in a suppressed world

All of these fires, when approached from a place of deep reverence, regenerative power, and expansive possibility, provide the accelerated growth and awakening that true initiation has always entailed.

In that spirit, The 7 Initiatory Fires of Modern Manhood presents a grounded and structured path of inner and outer development for men, offering a fresh take on men’s work and a clear path that brings courage and direction to an otherwise arduous (and often missed) pursuit.
