A Path Forward: Join the Shame to Resilience Workshop

Hi Reader, If you've betrayed trust, you know the weight of guilt and shame can feel isolating. It’s hard to know how to fix what’s been broken. But you don’t have to walk this path alone. I want to invite you to our 10-week "Shame to Resilience" workshop, designed specifically for men ready to do the work of healing. The next workshop starts on Wednesday, December 3rd, from 9:00 to 10:00 AM PST.
